Past Gone

[Verse 1] Now let me tell you about a girl I know Well not really, I met her on a tour stop outside of Philly She was front row, reached her hand so I could feel it I kept lookin' at her, she knew every single lyric It was dope I stuck around after the show to go and kick it with the fans Who come to see us on the road It was all love Bunch of pictures and hugs But that's when I learned just how different she was See she was 19 and addicted to drugs And almost died last year Sometimes she wishes she was And she was cryin' Her brother was with her, he came too He nodded and he said that everything she's saying's true And then she said tonight was the best night of her life And even if it didn't last, right now it feels right I looked her in the eyes, and put it on my life That we gon' work on this together And she gon' be alright, I know [Hook] So when you feel alone in the night time Just know that you ain't ever on your own Cause every body goes through the low oh ohs And I just want you to know oh Just know that I believe in you Like you believe in me Just know that I believe in you Like you believe in me Like you believe in me Yeah, yeah, like you believe in me [Verse 2] See things happen in crazy ways I swear to god since that day I've changed my ways Now every day when I wake up I reach over Grab my phone, send a text to her To let her know she's not alone And I promise that I won't forget Cause on the real, it's so sad, she's so depressed And through our daily conversations What I've learned about depression Is that it's hard to know the answers when you don't know the questions Cause she don't understand why she feels the way she does No matter what she tries, man it never is enough And a few months back for one night I felt the pain that she felt her whole life Cause she called and said that she was ready to go And said thanks for everything, but she was ready to go I said please don't, there's something you gotta know I wrote a song about you, and this is how it goes [Hook] [Verse 3] It was five hours later when we hung up She was tired and the sun was startin' to come up But yo, we spent that whole night just talkin' it through And at that point, there wasn't much more I could do But what I did say, is that she needed to promise me She wouldn't do anything crazy without callin' me And so far, man things have been better We talk way less cause things have been better And last time she called was my birthday night And it was the best gift i've gotten in my life She said remember that time when you sang me that song Without that night, I'd be way past gone So, thank you [Hook]
