Gone Going |
| Johnny wanna be a big star |
| Get on stage and play the guitar |
| Make a little money, buy a fancy car |
| Big old house and an alligator |
| Just to match with them alligator shoes |
| He’s a rich man so he’s no longer singing the blues |
| He’s singing songs about material things |
| And platinum rings and watches that go bling |
| But, diamonds don’t bling in the dark |
| He a star now, but he ain’t singing it from the heart |
| Sooner or later, it’s just gonna fall apart |
| 'Cause his fans can’t relate to his new found art |
| He ain’t doin' what he did from the start |
| And that’s putting in some feeling and thought |
| He decided to live his life shallow |
| Cash in his love for material |
| And it’s gone |
| Gone going |
| Gone, everything gone, give a damn |
| Gone be the birds when they don’t wanna sing |
| Gone people |
| Aw-awkward with their things, gone |
| You see yourself in the mirror, and ya |
| Feel safe 'cause it’s looks familiar, but 'cha |
| Afraid to open up your soul, cause ya |
| Don’t really know, don’t really know who is (Who is) |
| The person that’s deep within |
| 'Cause you content with just being the name brand man |
| And you fail to see that it’s trivial |
| Insignificant, you addicted to material |
| I seen your kind before |
| You the type that think souls is sold in the store |
| Packaged up with incense sticks |
| With the vegetarian meals, to you that’s righteous |
| You’re fiction like books |
| Need to go out to life and look |
| 'Cause, uh, what happens when they take your material |
| And you already sold your soul |
| And it’s… |
| Gone going |
| Gone, everything gone, give a damn |
| Gone be the birds when they don’t wanna sing |
| Gone people |
| Aw-awkward with their things, gone |
| They say that «Time is money and money is time» |
| So you gotcha mind in your money and your money on your mind |
| But what about |
| That crime you did to get paid |
| And what about |
| That bid you can’t take it to your grave |
| Tell me about it |
| What about those shoes you in today? |
| They’ll do no good |
| On the bridges you walk along the way |
| All that money chu got |
| Gon' be gone |
| That ear that chu rock |
| Gon' be gone |
| That house upon that hill |
| Gon' be gone |
| The gold burns on your grill |
| Gon' be gone |
| The ice on your wrist |
| Gon' be gone |
| That nice little Miss |
| Gon' be gone |
| That whip that chu roll |
| Gon' be gone |
| What’s worse is your soul already gone |
| Yeah, it’s gone |
| Gone going |
| Gone, everything gone, give a damn |
| Gone be the birds when they don’t wanna sing |
| Gone people |
| Aw-awkward with their things, gone |
| Gone |
| Gone |
