Robert Glasper - Gone lyrics

[Hook: Tiffany Gouche] Before you decide to leave it behind Once, twice, go You're moving too fast and you can't rewind Once, twice, go [Verse 1] It's a new era Two steps ahead, and I'm ready for whatever Life ain't easy, I took a few fair ones Move in silence, my legacy is making sure that my beats And my heart's in sync, doing me is really all I can do The elephant in the room, either you're with me or not Friend or foe, really, they be hard to spot I play to win, why ask "why?" It's about the element of surprise Old soul, I could show you right Black, white, or even gray, what would you decide? But, yo, people walk around with their high hopes Head in the sky, living life with their eyes closed Remember, you could stop but time won't wait So if you ain't got a vision, what you here for? Momma said, "Just pray, and be patient" Man, I'm just sayin' [Hook: Tiffany Gouche] Before you decide to leave it behind Once, twice, go You're moving too fast and you can't rewind Once, twice, go [Verse 2: Punch] No rear-view mirrors, no recollection of scars I'm stearing clear of all my flaws I don't even wanna remember Just give me space, I'll be gone 'til November Forever young, a born sinner I wish Mike was here, so he could see [?] Unfold before my eyes, I'm tryna fight back tears Bittersweet memories, mixing iced tea and Hennessy Lord, protect my enemies Which is me, I'm dyin' to find a proper energy I need a direct current, what-if's constantly reoccurring My 3 chords can't fold, I'm just reaffirming [Hook: Tiffany Gouche] Before you decide to leave it behind Once, twice, go You're moving too fast and you can't rewind Once, twice, go [Verse 3: Terrace Martin] Me no pick up the phone Can you blame me, call me crazy? Man, just leave me alone Peace of mind is needed Why you interrupting my zone? Homie, can't disrespect my business And my children with your negative tone It's principles, cause I don't wanna have to pick up the chrome So chill, and let's keep it cool I be doin' me, and you do you Opportunity knocks, so don't miss a queue How you executin' your mission while you watching the tube? Fool, slackin' on your hustle Can't be mad, man, it's all on you Real talk, no denying the truth Got my city on lock, homie, that's the key Do my mic' sounds nice Check, one... two... three... Chord... Fold [Hook: Tiffany Gouche] Before you decide to leave it behind Once, twice, go You're moving too fast and you can't rewind Once, twice, go Hidden Track: "Can't Help It (Michael Jackson Tribute)" [Verse 1] Looking in my mirror Took me by surprise I can't help but see you Running often through my mind [Verse 2] Helpless like a baby Sensual disguise I cannot help but love you It is getting better all the time [Chorus] I can't help it if I wanted to I would not help it even if I could I can't help it if I wanted to I wouldn't help it, no [Verse 3] Love to run my fingers Softly while you sigh Love came and possessed you Bringing sparkles in your eyes [Verse 4] Like a trip to heaven Heaven is the prize And I am so glad I found you, girl You are an angel in disguise [Chorus] I can't help it if I wanted to I would not help it even if I could I can't help it if I wanted to I wouldn't help it, no And I am so glad I found you, girl You are an angel in disguise [Chorus] I can't help it if I wanted to I would not help it even if I could I can't help it if I wanted to I wouldn't help it, no
