Yeah, yeah, yeah Bone, it's goin' down, man Yo, this how we do it Now that I'm gone None of my enemies can hate on me now And all my friends can do is pray for me now Only God can judge me Now that I'm gone None of my enemies can hate on me now And all my friends can do is pray for me now Only God can judge me Now that I'm dead and gone I finally got these niggaz up out of my business Death has severed all my friendships It's been hell ever since I've been here All these fake niggas come to my funeral Look at them sheddin' they dry tears Look at my baby mamas and them trippin' out Actin' a fool front of my kids Then I got niggas puttin' Drug paraphernalia in my casket A spliff, a picture of me still livin' And a bullet from a Magnum Man, I feel bad for my family But in death it's a safer place Than bein' amongst these chumps and scavengers Then one of my niggas say He said, "I'll see you in the afterlife" Don't he know that it's only G-O after life?" My nigga been learned wrong I don't plan on goin' to heaven I'm tryin' to get ready for the resurrection But until then I'm patiently restin' Think of my sins, no need on me stressin' Now that I'm gone None of my enemies can hate on me now And all my friends can do is pray for me now Only God can judge me Now that I'm gone None of my enemies can hate on me now And all my friends can do is pray for me now Only God can judge me See, now that I'm gone and I'm dead and I'm buried In life in a hurry like why did I run with straps? I made it, tell Fe-Fe don't worry I scrambled and scurried but only my lungs collapse Surely I'll make you a song for that How could I really go wrong with that? Sayin' that smokin' was killin' my vocals Not sayin' that Layzie put on for rap Known for rap and soldier'd up Can't none of y'all say that I owed y'all nothin' When I fade to black just hold it up Y'all better say that I made y'all somethin' When the shells collapse and the soul relax Lookin' down at yo' body, Wally Walk through the tunnel went into the bright light Hopin' he did right by somebody I mean, I ran with the right team Did my dirt had fun in the night life It wasn't a pipe dream My legacy tellin' me I live Christ-like I hear what they sayin' but fuck all the weepin' I peep it just keep it, I live mine Celebrate them good times Just read the will, Stevie, Stevon Now that I'm gone None of my enemies can hate on me now And all my friends can do is pray for me now Only God can judge me Now that I'm gone None of my enemies can hate on me now And all my friends can do is pray for me now Only God can judge me Life dealt me a raw deal Had to make it for what it was worth so went on to sick-ville Just what have I done? Signed in my balance then had to get strong when I took the deal Strugglin' and strivin' Farther my purpose to toil harder Tryin' to make good off my honor 'Til a hater really make me a martyr Kiss my, gonna miss my daughters Hope I taught my seeds proper I love my mother and father equal But I did damage to so many people So much evil it's hard to see through the dark Gotta fight fire with fire Let it spark and light up my way They said he went out in a blaze My enemies steady hatin' Waitin' for me to take my last breath No longer flesh Had peace and yet the rest consume and avenge my death Served my stretch, did my best Then it's back to the Lord who made me All the rest of y'all can judge But it's only up to God to save me Now that I'm gone None of my enemies can hate on me now And all my friends can do is pray for me now Only God can judge me Now that I'm gone None of my enemies can hate on me now And all my friends can do is pray for me now Only God can judge me
