Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Felicia you're gonna cry when I'm gone
Felicia you're gonna curse your own ways
And now when my life is over
You're gonna cry for me
Felicia I got no control of my soul
But now when my life is over
I'm gonna lie in peace
And now when my life is over
I'm gonna lie in peace
