G-Eazy：

Shout out Dakari

Shout out Ash shout out Jessie shout out to Game

It's like we always do it this time

Just take it to myself like yeah uh

Starin' at a blank canvas

Thinkin' about what should I write should I plan this

Reminiscing 18 a freshman on campus

With dreams so big nobody understands us

Till they came true started goin' bananas

Somewhere along the road I got us as lost as Atlantis

Been there since Vegas drinking under cabanas

And medicine for breakups take the pills life hand us

No sleep I been up for a couple of days

Can't nobody talk to him been stuck in my ways

They say it's "unsustainable" but f**k it it pays

Results and results keep runnin' them plays

I see the writings on the wall that s**t's getting clear

My new girl says she love me but I don't even hear her

I can't even drive a Jag' that s**t is inferior

Only time I see a threat when I look in the mirror

Lil Wayne/G-Eazy：

Yeah they only love you

Ayy

When you gone

It don't matter where you goin'

Uhh

Yeah

You know

But I did it on my own

So I'd rather be alone yeah

I'd rather be alone uhh

They only love you when you're gone

It don't matter where you goin'

Yeah

Yeah

Uhh

But I got it on my own so I'd rather die alone

Yeah

G-Eazy：

Yeah the greatest gift is knowledge itself

They fail to talk about my journey with mission and wealth

I made it here all by my lonely no askin' for help

What if my debut never dropped and got kept up on a shelf

Uh finna sour a grape slowly

A black leather slicked back they want the old G

"Things are happening again" that's what they told me

I came home full circle not as an OG

Blink my eyes to my surprise I'm in Tokyo

20,000 in the crowd singing every quote

Blink again and they kickin' me out of Canada

I swear you wouldn't have the stomach or the stamina

Yeah my shoulders carry over 20 tons

Biggie said there's more problems when the money comes

My songs speak to the greats hear the one-on-ones

I'mma go out as a legend when it's said and done

Lil Wayne/G-Eazy：

Yeah they only love you when you gone

It don't matter where you goin'

Where you goin' uhh

Yeah

But I did it on my own

On my own

So I'd rather be alone yeah

I'd rather be alone yeah

They only love you when you're gone

Yeah

It don't matter where you goin' yeah

But I got it on my own so I'd rather die alone

Lil Wayne：

Yeah who put this s**t together

I put this s**t together

I'mma wear all my chains like some Olympic medals

They think it's all a game so I'm thinking winning record

They think it Kurt Cobain but I'm thinking living legend

I'm straight to the Hall Of Fame straight from the hallways of the ghetto

It's f**k the world f**k 12 since I was like 10-11

I built the whole f**king mountain I started out with a pebble

That money talk that's a convo

If you broke then that's a lecture

I does me cause only God can judge me

N***a trust me only I can trust me

Yeah it's just me and the skies above me

But I dug deep now close your eyes and come see

Will they love me when I'm gone

Will they know me

Do they love me when I'm home or when I'm O.T.

I'm here I don't know how long before I won't be

So when I'm gone how long will they mourn me

Lil Wayne：

Yeah they only love you when you gone

It don't matter where you goin' yeah

But I did it on my own

So I'd rather be alone yeah

They only love you when you're gone

It don't matter where you goin' yeah

But I got it on my own so I'd rather die alone

G-Eazy：

Yeah never finish to search for more

F**k a hit this s**t is what I do it for

So these bars will always be apart of me

Right now I feel like track 2 on Tha Carter III

Uh like I'm 2008 Nola

This s**t is bubblin' and I don't even drink soda

The whole industry was givin' me a cold shoulder

And now my record label needs me to make quota

Yeah this all facts and every bar is real

In twenty years pray to God I'm makin' art still

I'm letting everything go like a yard sale

Cause the songs will beat longer than my heart will
