Braille - Im Gone
(from the album The IV Editition)
© copyright 2008, Hiphopismusic.com
I’m going, I’m going, I’m gone and I’m not coming back
(repeat)
I think I’m losing my mind this time, this time I’m losing
my mind
(repeat)
And they say that I’ve lost it, mentally exhausted, a time
bomb walking, proceed with caution, don’t push me,
I’m close to the edge, trying not to lose my head
Chorus:
And we gotta keep on, da da da daAnd we gotta push on, da da
da da
And we gotta move on, da da da da
For the rest of our lives
(repeat)
I’m walking the plank and they’re throwing me overboard,
throwing me overboard, blown out of proportion
(repeat)
Holding down the fortress, attention span, divided into
portions, call it a deficit, like the government debt, when
nothing is said, the moment is tense, so you know what
they're thinking, you can’t cover my eyes with those fabrics
of imagination, but diseases in the blankets that keep me
warm, taking advantage of my trust, but guess what, I don’t
trust you no more
Chorus
And they say that I’ve totally lost it, I’m at the
courthouse totally exhausted, they tried to press charges,
said I was worse the Charles Manson, called the prison
guards in, holding me down, the crowd screams “Guilty!”,
yelling loud to convince the jury, examine the evidence,
it’s obvious I’m innocent, this is unjustified punishment,
my friend walked in just in time, I thought you were on my
side, but now he’s telling lies, the whole world is against
me, I know who all of you are, I saw the dirt that you’ve
done, crooked cop shot a man with a gun, that prostitute
slept with the preacher's son, what were you doing Saturday
night? Where were you on the night of the crime?, yeah, now
the finger's pointing at you, now you're nervous, not sure
what to do, and that’s why you blame me, cause your ashamed
of yourself and it’s a shame to see, we all fall far from
grace, praying that God won’t recognize our face, the wages
of sin is death, God already knows, snitch, hold your
breath
Chorus
Behind the Song:
"This song almost has a paranoid type vibe to it. It’s
written from the perspective of someone who feels like they
can’t trust anyone. Someone who feels like they are being
judged by every move they make, and they can’t escape the
judgment – so they judge others the same way. Sometimes we
resort to pointing out the flaws in others in order to take
the focus off our own flaws." - Braille
