II Kings - Now They're Gone lyrics

[Verse 1: DMB] I understand what it's like to make a hard decision But an unforeseen circumstance has arisen So I'm sorry if we haven't spoken lately But in the future I still hope that you can save me Cause I can sense my nearness, but I'm still staying fearless Keep tearless so I can see clearly through the mirrors The smoke is growing thicker, I'm slowly getting sicker Can I open out my arm so you can get the picture I don't wanna lose this chance that I have I shouldn't have spent our last dance in the lab If we can relive those moments, and do it all over We could pick up the pieces, and I can be your soldier Now I realize that we're facing a war I'm gonna give you everything - I'll give you my all So there is no more time for mistakes You only got one life, one chance you can take, so.. [Hook: Marnie Brown] All the chances you're taking Are to show you're just as strong While all their hearts are breaking You won't admit you're wrong You are your only concern Everyone you've strung along And when you finally learn You'll see that now they're gone.. [Verse 2: Elusive] I've been trying so hard to get my name out But it seems like it might be too late now I set my sights too high, and now I ain't Even gonna fly long enough to see the sky above the rain clouds But I remain proud, because I stand strong This ain't an opera, but I'm feeling like the phantom Because nobody loves me either Yeah I'll pick up the pieces and flee, and fall feet first through the ether I feed off of this amnesia, I need it to see clearly But there's no point in rhyming, when only the beat hears me Am I talking to myself? I know that you're weak and dreary But inside, I know it's not a conspiracy theory So f** it, I'll walk this path until my feet have no skin Where there's no light at all, and my dreams are broken As the darkness takes my soul, and I can see the road end I just want you to know, that nothing will stop me from hoping, that.. [Hook] [Verse 3: Elusive] But I'm gonna fight, I'm gonna do what's right They're never gonna deceive us while I'm in the spotlight I'll rise to the top, like I'd been signed by the gods Eyes on the prize that's above, sizing the climb - cause I can't fly But I drop fire, so I may get a little help Like I wrote a verse sick enough, the page spits itself Does a whole concert, 6 days spent in hell And now he's trapped for a lifetime - caged in a cell I embraced what I felt, and it made me stronger Somewhere way beyond where everyday was longer Where it's safe to wonder if it's fate, I ponder As we face the thunder, I'mma take you under I'm amazed, and stunned, nobody else spits relevant Long gone are the days of intelligence Move on, or you're never gonna be selling sh** Even if you spit better than ever, and they'd never tell you this, but.. [Hook] [Bridge: Marnie Brown] You ruin everything you touch.. everything And for what? When will you care that the Very people who love you are going to be the ones who leave? (chuckle) And when you finally open up your eyes and realize what you've done? You'll see that now they're gone.. [Outro: Marnie Brown] And when you finally learn.. You'll see that now they're gone.. You'll see that now they're.. Gone, gone, gone.. And when you finally learn.. You'll see that now they're gone.. You'll see that now they're.. Gone, gone, gone..
