Gone - Stann Smith

I wake up and my mom is gone

Coors Light slither the floor

I don’t wanna go through it no more

I just can’t do it no more

But what’s more important to an alcoholic?

So I just headed to the tournament, I used to walk it

Me and Denzel went every Saturday morning

To play Yu-Gi-Oh and trade, everybody supported

Only thirteen and learning the dire effects

Of what alcohol can do when inside of your neck

I forgive her, that’s the truth I’m just tryna reflect

And touch somebody going through it that’s highly oppressed

So I started up EKOET and made a clown for it

They say something’s only worth it if you die for it

Reach the top and know that you ain’t compromised for it

So everyday I put my life on the line for it

I am just the -- I am just the one they gotta believe

But I don’t know what I am gonna do because I see

The world around me, man, they wanna try to take me on

But I don’t but, I just feel like all my spirits gone

I wake up, my grandmother is gone

Tears all over the floor

Despair came over us all

It’s written all over the wall

My aunt went in debt just to pay for the service

A couple thousand dollars on the credit card purchase

She never did recover from the debt she inserted

But she never did tell us so I guess it’s uncertain

Insurance didn’t cover shit, they hit us with that sucka shit

You know, all it causes in a poor man coverage

My dad didn’t miss one payment

Now they took every dime and he’s forced to pay it

Now when he dream about it, he just play a number

A birthday, her grave site, a way to say he love her

I know he hurt but she will want for him to be as strong

Because her spirit’s always with us, never see her gone

I am just the -- I am just the one they gotta believe

But I don’t know what I am gonna do because I see

The world around me, man, they wanna try to take me on

But I don’t but, I just feel like all my spirits gone
