[Intro: G-Eazy]
~#**************#~
Shout out Dakari
~#**************#~
Shout out Ed, shout out Jessie, shout out The Game
~#**************#~
Its like we always do at this time
~#**************#~
Thinkin to myself like, yeah, uh
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: G-Eazy & Lil Wayne]
~#**************#~
Starin at a blank canvas
~#**************#~
Thinkin bout what should I write, should I plan this?
~#**************#~
Reminiscin eighteen, a freshman on campus
~#**************#~
With dreams so big, nobody understands us
~#**************#~
‘Til they came true, started goin bananas
~#**************#~
Somewhere along the road, I got as lost as Atlantis
~#**************#~
Been there since Vegas, drinkin under cabanas
~#**************#~
And medicine for breakups, take the pills life hand us
~#**************#~
No sleep, I been up for a couple of days
~#**************#~
Cant nobody talk to him, been stuck in my ways
~#**************#~
They say its unsustainable, but fuck it, it pays
~#**************#~
Results and results, keep runnin them plays
~#**************#~
I see the writings on the wall, that shits getting clear
~#**************#~
My new girl says she love me, but I dont even hear her
~#**************#~
I cant even drive a Jag, that shit is inferior
~#**************#~
Only time I see a threat, when I look in the mirror (Yeah), ayy
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Lil Wayne & G-Eazy]
~#**************#~
They only love you when youre gone
~#**************#~
It dont matter where you goin (Uh), yeah (You know)
~#**************#~
But I did it on my own
~#**************#~
So Id rather be alone (Id rather be alone), yeah
~#**************#~
They only love you when youre gone
~#**************#~
It dont matter where you goin (Yeah, Uh), yeah
~#**************#~
Well, I got it on my own, so Id rather die alone (Yeah, yeah)
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: G-Eazy & Lil Wayne]
~#**************#~
The greatest gift is knowledge itself
~#**************#~
They fail to talk about my journey when mentionin 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, from the soil, grew it slowly
~#**************#~
A black leather, slicked back, they want the old G
~#**************#~
“Things are happenin again,” thats what they told me
~#**************#~
I came home, full circle, now as an OG
~#**************#~
Blink my eyes, to my surprise, Im in Tokyo
~#**************#~
Twenty thousand in the crowd singin every quote
~#**************#~
Blink again and they kickin me outta Canada
~#**************#~
I swear you wouldnt have the stomach or the stamina
~#**************#~
Yeah, my shoulders carry over twenty tons
~#**************#~
Biggie said its more problems when the money comes
~#**************#~
My songs speak to the greats, yeah the one-of-ones
~#**************#~
Ima go out as a legend when its said and done (Yeah)
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Lil Wayne & G-Eazy]
~#**************#~
They only love you when youre gone
~#**************#~
It dont matter where you goin, (Where you go, uh) yeah
~#**************#~
But I did it on my own (On my own)
~#**************#~
So Id rather be alone (Id rather be alone), yeah
~#**************#~
They only love you when youre gone (Yeah)
~#**************#~
It dont matter where you goin, yeah
~#**************#~
Well, I got it on my own, so Id rather die alone
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Lil Wayne]
~#**************#~
Who put this shit together? I put this shit together
~#**************#~
Ima wear all my chains like some Olympic medals
~#**************#~
They think its all a game, so Im thinkin winnin record
~#**************#~
They thinkin Kurt Cobain, but Im thinkin living legend
~#**************#~
Im straight to the Hall of Fame from the hallways of the ghetto
~#**************#~
Its fuck the world, fuck 12, since I was like ten, eleven
~#**************#~
I built the whole fuckin mountain, I started out with a pebble
~#**************#~
That money talk, thats a convo, if you broke then thats a lecture
~#**************#~
I does me, cause only God can judge me
~#**************#~
Nigga, trust me, only I can trust me
~#**************#~
Yeah, its just me and the skies above me
~#**************#~
But I dug deep, now close your eyes and come see
~#**************#~
Will they love me when Im gone? Will they know me?
~#**************#~
Do they love me when Im home or when Im O.T.?
~#**************#~
Im here I dont know how long before I wont be
~#**************#~
So when Im gone, how long will they mourn me? (Yeah)
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Lil Wayne & G-Eazy]
~#**************#~
They only love you when you gone
~#**************#~
It dont matter where you goin (Matter where you goin), yeah
~#**************#~
But I did it on my own
~#**************#~
So Id rather be alone, yeah (Alone, yeah)
~#**************#~
They only love you when youre gone (Wayne, I appreciate you more than youll ever understand)
~#**************#~
It dont matter where you goin, yeah (You know, a hero of mine)
~#**************#~
Well, I got it on my own, so Id rather die alone (Uh)
~#**************#~
[Outro: G-Eazy]
~#**************#~
Never finished, tryna search for more
~#**************#~
Fuck a hit, this shit is what I do it for
~#**************#~
So these bars will always be a part of me
~#**************#~
Right now, I feel like track two on Tha Carter III
~#**************#~
Uh, like its 2008 NOLA
~#**************#~
This shit was bubblin and I dont even drink soda
~#**************#~
The whole industry was givin me a cold shoulder
~#**************#~
And now my record label needs me to make quota
~#**************#~
Yeah, thats all facts and every bar is real
~#**************#~
Twenty years, pray to God Im makin art still
~#**************#~
Im lettin everything go like a yard sale
~#**************#~
‘Cause these songsll beat longer than my heart will
