WHEN I’M GONE Lyrics

[Intro: Joey Purp]
Ugh

[Verse 1: Joey Purp]
I'm sick of waiting, I'm sick and tired, I'm sick, I hate it
I'm sick of outside opinions, I just ran out of patience
I'm sick of writing these raps, stuck in this fucking basement
Knowing you the best and they telling you just to be complacent
I'm tired of fickle fans—don't understand my new direction
I'm sick of people too closed-minded to view progressions

[Break: Teddy Jackson, Joey Purp, & Both]
All I wanna know is what they gon' do when I'm gone (Ugh)

[Verse 2: Joey Purp]
My nigga just had a baby, his baby mama crazy
He bought her houses, new clothes and even a new Mercedes
All they ever do now is argue about who fucking lazy
Who he creeping with, where he going, and who he texting lately
My nigga got two jobs, and still, he gotta hustle
He said, "You'll never trust me—how dare expect me to trust you?"

[Break: Teddy Jackson & Joey Purp]
All I wanna know is what you gon' do when I'm gone (I'm right back)

[Verse 3: Joey Purp]
I remember slaving away with a nine-to-five
Bad enough I be stuck in a fucking dead-end job
My boss is telling me I decide to show up late one more time, I'ma be filling out applications—nigga, you must be high
When you was hiding in the back when this bitch had got robbed
You'd fire me over nothing but five minutes of time

[Break: Teddy Jackson, Joey Purp, & Both]
All I wanna know is what you gon' do when I'm gone (Let me keep going, ugh)

[Verse 4: Joey Purp]
They wanna fire the teachers, policemen, and the preacher
I guess religion is useless and education evil
The system just made a victim out of innocent people
Set us up for failure and teaching us that we not are equal
What if they close the police stations and the fire stations
And the school is shut down and politicians' buildings vacant?

[Break: Teddy Jackson, Joey Purp, & Both]
All I wanna know is what we gon' do when they gone (I got this)

[Verse 5: Joey Purp]
If I see the day when they bury me or my casket closed
And could look down at my funeral while my spirit rose
I wonder if I would be remembered as a sinner or saint
Or just another dead young nigga, victim to bullet holes
If I don't make it, or if they take me before my time
I rest assured that through these lines, I'll be still alive

[Break: Teddy Jackson; Teddy Jackson & Joey Purp]
All I wanna know is what they gon' do when I'm gone
