Never Gone (Feat. Chrisette Michele)

Who’da ever thought it would be me

Talkin to you about life, I’m the Eve

And then a lot of wrong and rights never easy

I’m tryna make it through like you might need me

Ayo, every day it’s a struggle

Waking up, stressed emotions I juggle

As I look around and watch the world crumble

Something tell me pray you’d always stay humble

Yea, what doesn’t kill you only make you stronger

Stay chin up, hold on a little longer

They used to tell me, they tell me I ain’t have a voice

But then the angel showed me a better choice

Never let the world tell me how I’m defined

I give myself credit, never need a co-sign

Some days I cry but then I think and realize

I’m a star and damn it, I’mma shine

Show the world all the greatness that I posses

Gotta keep on pushin, keep on makin progress

If a beautiful rose can grow from concrete

Then there’s no reason for me to accept defeat

Tell the world for me

Who’ll miss me when I’m gone?

What’s a fight without defeat

What’s a day when there’s no Eve

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

Remember like a permanent scar

The feeling I had when you said I wouldn’t go far

I knew how to shine but life kept me in the dark

Dreamin I’m the moon, ‘cause the world’s too hard

Goals with no plan, runnin through quick sand

Thought I’ll go under but I’m still breathing

Not afraid of war so I keep fightin

I’m worth a lifetime, no one nice in

So I go back to the lab again, grab me a pad and pen

Write a legacy for my children’s children

Build a world for everybody to live in

And who would me I’d gladly do it again

Wouldn’t believe, now I know that I’m chosen

And everyone that kept it G, I owe them

Treasure my heart so I always stay golden

Live for the dream and I’m lovin the moment

Tell the world for me

Who’ll miss me when I’m gone?

What’s a fight without defeat

What’s a day when there’s no Eve

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

Hey, there are many moments in life

That make you feel the only option maybe is to fight back

And it feel foreign to you ‘cause you ain’t like that

Never let nobody steal your powers, now’s your right back

You gotta be the person you was born to be

I learned the only person I could control is me

And maybe they will see your style I mean eventually

And even is they don’t you got the right to disagree

Now listen, I ain’t got the answers or the plan

Me, I’m tryna figure out, tryna understand

Tryna be the best woman I could be for a man

Love is to be shared so I give mine

I’ll go hard, I’ll go hard

And this time I won’t miss

I’ll go hard, I’ll go hard

On top of the world I’ll live

Tell the world for me

Who’ll miss me when I’m gone?

What’s a fight without defeat

What’s a day when there’s no Eve

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

I’ll go hard, I’ll go hard

And this time I won’t miss

I’ll go hard, I’ll go hard

On top of the world I’ll live

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone

Never gone, never never gone
