My mortality is something like an enemy
Not afraid of death, just want to leave a legacy
And some property for generations after me
I'm afraid of never being who I have to be
A coward dies a thousand times before it's happening
My fallen soldiers helping me, they ain't abandon me
I talk about my suicide attempts casually
I'll never do it, but the thought is there annually
My older brother got shot five times, it was black-on-black crime
Luckily, he took it like a G
I asked him what the afterlife was like, he said "dark"
There's your answer
Don't cry when I'm gone, don't cry when I'm gone
'Cause baby now I'm stress-free
Don't cry when I'm gone, don't cry when I'm gone
'Cause baby now I'm stress-free
Don't cry when I'm gone, don't cry when I'm gone
Don't cry when I'm gone
Don't cry when I'm gone, don't cry when I'm gone
Don't cry when I'm gone
Desensitized to homicide, I feel like Bruce Banner
I could snap at any moment, straight up kill these rappers
The government might kill me for preaching positive shit
But what is positive shit? The truth is all that I spit (Talk to 'em, come on)
The truth is we're gonna die by our own hand
Before the earth does it for us, killing us slow man
And I don't want to manifest death in my life so I keep it brief
That's what got Jah and Pac killed early, so rest in peace
When I get happy and talk about how my life changed
Half my fanbase won't relate and hate the new me
The cycle is relentless, this job is a thankless one
How really mad can I be when my pockets is fatter, huh?
The pressure is on me to not blow it
Many have got attention, not many we still knowing
Folded under the pressure, I take notes from real G.O.A.Ts
And they're not all in the camera, so there is still hope
These days I have too much I have to fight for
Lead by example as I walk across a tightrope
At this point, I'll throw myself off the tightrope
Yeah, Jimmy's still depressed, I'll be alright though
Don't cry when I'm gone, don't cry when I'm gone
'Cause baby now I'm stress-free
Don't cry when I'm gone, don't cry when I'm gone
'Cause baby now I'm stress-free
Don't cry when I'm gone, don't cry when I'm gone
Don't cry when I'm gone
Don't cry when I'm gone, don't cry when I'm gone
Don't cry when I'm gone
