Unlike his other tracks like “Mine” and “Beautiful” where he expresses his emotions for a girl, “Gone” explores the extent of Bazzi being under the influence of alcohol. He’s not bothered about what’s around him, including women because he knows he’s too intoxicated to care.
The rhythm is fast-pace...
[Verse 1]
Woo!
We on a wave, that luxury flow
And I don't watch what I say, but I say what I know
Don't wait on me, it's too late for me
I walk with that step, Cali air what I breathe
And I've been drinkin' all night, so please excuse me
If I say what I mean, blame it on the Hennessy
Can't stop, won't stop, baby (Uh)
[Chorus]
It's too late, for me
I poured it too strong, now, baby, I'm gone
It's too late, for me
I poured it too strong, now, baby, I'm gone
It's too late (Late, late, late)
[Verse 2]
Designer on me, I'm covered in that Gucci
Is there tension in the air? Or, baby, is that just me?
Too strong, I'm gone, yeah
Let me switch this flow up real quick
Go-getter, V for Vendetta
Whatever, I just do better
Trendsetter, search for the cheddar
No pressure, float like a feather
Smooth dude, big moves
Big trees, like Snoop
Now I'm back (Now I'm back)
Let me bring it back to the track, oh, yeah
Can't stop, won't stop, yeah
[Chorus]
It's too late, for me
I poured it too strong, now, baby, I'm gone
It's too late, for me
I poured it too strong, now, baby, I'm gone
It's too late
