Intro:

Firing Squad...To the Death



Hook:

When I'm dead and gone you won't be alone

When I'm dead and gone



Verse 1:

O.G. Boom Bang (that's my nigga) that's right

I told you knuckle build with skil love you after life

And since your death everythings changed

The family ain't the same shit seems strange

I started beef with you, use to eat with you

Sleep with you, creep with you, I got use to seeing you

But I ain't smashed up, I ain't mad at cha

I know some day we all all gonna be up in that pasture

But anyway, we finally got some ends

Princess Imani will be blessed with them diamonds and gems

Just like we always planned, so salute, to ya troop

Tribute from your man Billy Danz I love you



Hook:

When we get there you won't be alone, when I'm dead and gone



Verse 2:

Yo, the whole scenery is packed in, people dressed in black and

The whole place is flooded with tears, I'm surrounded by my peers

There I lay, day after day has been a struggle for the man

But when I'm put six feet under, will my son understand?

This is some, ILL shit, that we DEAL with, because

Caps get pealed QUICK, and we be dealin' with some real shit

It's like a universal cycle, I'm a disciple

You could be left not breathing even if you walking with your bible

So when m body hit that soil and sinkin'

I'm gonna be lookin' right over my son, even when I'm dead and stinkin'

A legacy is left behind, for mine

So he can stay strong, so that he can move on, when I'm dead and gone



Hook:

The way the world is going it won't be too long, when I'm dead and gone

I'm on my way home

Just give it up, just give it up, just give it up



Verse 3:

So kid, don't think you alone, when your daddy's all gone

Cause I won' be resting in peace till I see you grown

Carry on, nothing else could come above you

You best believe I love you, I wouldn't of brought you in this world of

struggle

There's only two places to go, heaven or hell, well only God alone

Will know, where I dwell, so stay tight, keep your head right

It'll be alright, you'll never be alone, when I'm dead and gone



I be amoungst the fallen members of my family tree

(Baby Boy Brimmer) and my man Spuds McKenzy

Princly Roy and Big Mal, Lameef caught a beat

A cat with that Danzine smile

After I stopped breathing, I ain't leavin', cause I belive in

Achievin' goals, through spiritial soul (REMEMBER)

Death is just a heart beat away

And if you live by the gun, you gonna die by the gun I love you



Hook:

When I'm dead and gone, when I'm dead and gone

The way this world is going it won't be to long

I'm on my way home

Just give it up, just give it up, just give it
