dead and gone (radio edit) - t.i. lyrics

[intro: t.i.]
big phil, this for you, pimpin’

[chorus: justin timberlake & t.i.]
oh, i’ve been travelin’ on this road too long ( too long.)
just tryin’ to find my way back home ( back home.)
the old me is dead and gone, dead and gone

[verse 1: t.i.]
ever had one of them days wish you woulda stayed home
run into a group of suckers who gettin’ they hate on?
you walk by, they get wrong
you reply, then things get blown
way outta proportion, way past discussion
just you against them, pick one, then rush him
figure you get jumped, h*ll, that’s nothin’
they don’t wanna stop there, now they bustin’
now you gushin’, ambulance rushin’ you
to the hospital with a bad concussion
plus you hit four times, bullet hit yo’ spine
paralyzed waist*down, now you’re wheelchair*bound
never mind that now, you lucky to be alive
just think, it all started, you fussin’ with three guys
now your pride in the way, but your pride is the way
you could mess around, get shot, die any day
people die everyday, all over nothing
dope money, dice game, contenrs
could this be ‘cause of hip hop music?
or did the ones with the good sense not use it?
usually people don’t know what to do when
their back against the wall, so they just start shootin’
for red or for blue or for blow, i guess
from bankhead up to yo projects
[pre*chorus: t.i.]
no more stress, now i’m straight
now i get it, now i take
time to think before i make
mistakes just for my family’s sake
that part of me left yesterday
the heart of me is strong today
no regrets, i’m blessed to say
the old me dead and gone away

[chorus: justin timberlake & t.i.]
oh, i’ve been travelin’ on this road too long ( too long.)
just tryin’ to find my way back home ( back home.)
the old me is dead and gone, dead and gone

[verse 2: t.i.]
i ain’t never been scared, i lived through tragic situation
coulda been dead lookin’ back at it
most of that stuff didn’t even have to happen
but you don’t think about it when you out there trappin’
in apartments, hangin’, smokin’ and rappin’
suckers start sh*t, next thing you know, we cappin’
get locked up, then didn’t even get mad
now think about, d*mn, what a life i had!
most of that stuff, look back, just laugh
some stuff, still look back, get sad
maybe my homeboy still be around
had i not hit the sucker in the mouth that time
i won that fight, i lost that war
i can still see my h0m* walkin’ out that door
who’da thought i’d never see philant no more?
got enough dead homies, i don’t want no more
cost a his jaw, cost me more
i shoulda walked off, took that loss, for sure
now, think before i risk my life
take them chances to get my stripes
somebody put his hands on me, alright
otherwise, stand there, talk sh*t all night
’cause i hit you, and you sue me
i shoot you, get locked up, who? me?
[pre*chorus: t.i.]
no more stress, now i’m straight
now i get it, now i take
time to think before i make
mistakes just for my family’s sake
that part of me left yesterday
the heart of me is strong today
no regrets, i’m blessed to say
the old me dead and gone away

[chorus: justin timberlake & t.i.]
oh, i’ve been travelin’ on this road too long ( too long.)
just tryin’ to find my way back home ( back home.)
the old me is dead and gone, dead and gone

[bridge: justin timberlake]
i turn my head to the east
i don’t see n0body by my side
i turn my head to the west
still n0body in sight
so i turn my head to the north
swallow that pill that they call pride
the old me is dead and gone
but the new me will be alright
i turn my head to the east
i don’t see n0body by my side
i turn my head to the west
still n0body in sight
so i turn my head to the north
swallow that pill that they call pride
the old me is dead and gone
but the new me will be alright ’cause
[chorus: justin timberlake & t.i.]
oh, i’ve been travelin’ on this road too long ( too long.)
just tryin’ to find my way back home ( back home.)
the old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
