Gone Lyrics - Kanye West

1 '''Otis Redding and Kanye West:'''

2 Wished I had told

3 Ooh was the only one (Uh oh)

4 But it's too late

5 It's too late, he's gone

6 '''Kanye West:'''

7 You sweat her and I ain't talkin 'bout a Coogi

8 You a Big L and I ain't talkin 'bout Cool J

9 See me at the airport, at least twenty Louis

10 Treat me like the Prince and this my sweet brother Numpsay

11 (Brother Numpsay) Groupies say I'm too choosy

12 Take em to the show and talk all through the movies

13 Says she want diamonds, I took her to Ruby Tuesdays

14 If we up in Fridays, I still have it my way

15 '''Otis Redding, Cam'ron, and Kanye West:'''

16 (Gone) We striving home

17 (Gone) (I ride on chrome), it's too late

18 '''Kanye West:'''

19 Y'all don't want no prob' from me

20 What you rappers could get is a job from me

21 Maybe you could be my intern

22 And in turn, I'll show you how I cook up summer in the winter

23 Aaron love the raw dog, when will he learn?

24 Caught something on the Usher tour, he had to let it burn

25 Plus he already got three children

26 Arguin' over babysitters like, "Bitch it's yo' turn"

27 "Damn Ye it'd be stupid to diss you

28 Even your superficial raps is super-official"

29 Roc pastel with Gucci on

30 With TV's in the ride, throw a movie on

31 Said he couldn't rap, now he at the top with Doobie Long

32 'Cause I dookied on any song that they threw me on, gone

33 '''Cam'ron and Otis Redding:'''

34 We striving home, gone

35 (I ride on chrome), gone

36 We striving home, gone

37 (Killa, I ride on chrome)

38 Knock knock, who's there? Killa Cam, Killa who?

39 Killa Cam, hustler, grinder, guerilla true

40 Oh my chinchilla blue, blue you ever dealt with a dealer

41 Well here's the deal, ma we going to the dealer, woo

42 No concealing, no ceiling I don't need a roof

43 Act up, get out, I don't need you poof

44 Poof be gone, damn tough luck dag

45 Dag, niggas still doing puff-puff-pass

46 Pull the truck up fast and I tell em

47 Hey back in a touched up Jag shit

48 Y'all niggas wanna get in Cam's cerebellum

49 An old man just gon' tell em, "Too late, he's gone"

50 Then I see how y'all gonna react when I'm gone

51 My last girl want me back then I'm on

52 Fine stay, you got the grind hey

53 Came back, read what the sign say, "Too late, he's gone)

54 Yes I know you wanna see my demise

55 Yeah you church boy, acting like a thief in disguise

56 Ain’t even my size, see the greed in my eyes

57 Ask Abby, I hustle, brought weed to the Chi, shit

58 And that ain't even a lie, please believe me

59 Gave Weezie a piece of the pie and

60 You can ask George or Regina

61 The whole West Side I explore with the Bimmer now

62 We striving home

63 I ride on chrome

64 Listen, homeboy, move on

65 That's your best bet, why's that, Cons?

66 '''Consequence:'''

67 I been pouring out some liquor for the fact that my pal's gone

68 And trying to help his mama with the fact that her child gone

69 And since we used to bubble like a tub full of Calgon

70 Guess it's only right that I should help her from now on

71 But since they got afoul on, what could've gone wrong?

72 Now they asking Cons, "How long has this gone on?"

73 And maybe all this money might have gone to my head

74 'Cause they got me thinking money might have gone to the Feds

75 So I had gone to the dread, but he had gone up to bed

76 And when I came the next morning he was gone with my bread

77 And with that being said I had gone on my instincts

78 And gone to the spots where they go to get mixed drinks

79 But looking back now, I should've gone to the crib

80 And rented ''Gone With the Wind'' 'cause I'd a-gone in by ten

81 But I had gone with my friend, and we had gone to the bar

82 And heard a nigga talking shit so I had gone to the car

83 And now the judge is telling me that I had gone too far

84 And now we gone for twenty years doing time behind bars

85 And since I gone to a cell for some petty crimes

86 I guess I gone to the well one too many times 'cause I'm gone

87 '''Kanye West:'''

88 I'm ahead of my time, sometimes years out

89 So the powers that be won't let me get my ideas out

90 And that make me wanna get my advance out

91 And move to Oklahoma and just live at my aunt's house

92 Yeah, I romance the thought of leaving it all behind

93 Kanye step away from the lime

94 Light like when I was on the grind in the 1999

95 Before model chicks was bending over

96 Or dealerships asked me, "Benz or Rover"

97 Man, if I could just get one beat on Hova

98 We could get up off this cheap-ass sofa

99 What the summer of the Chi got to offer an eighteen-year-old

100 Sell drugs or get a job, you gotta play your role

101 My dog worked at Taco Bell, hooked us up plural

102 Fired a week later, the manager count the churros

103 Sometimes I can't believe it when I look up in the mirro'

104 How we out in Europe, spending Euros

105 They claim you never know what you got till it's gone

106 I know I got it, I don't know what y'all on

107 I'mma open up a store for aspiring emcees

108 Won't sell 'em no dream, but the inspiration is free

109 But if they ever flip sides like Anakin

110 You'll sell everything including the mannequin

111 They got a new bitch, now you Jennifer Aniston

112 Hold on, I'll handle it, don't start panickin', stay calm

113 Shorties at the door 'cause they need more

114 Inspiration for they life, they souls, and they songs

115 They said, "Sorry, Mr. West is gone"
