Think It's A Game
They gon' miss me when I'm gone

In YFN Lucci's song "When I'm Gone," the rapper reflects on his life and his rise to fame. He starts the song with "Buddha blessed this beat" and "Think It's a Game," suggesting that he is grateful for his success and acknowledges that he owes it all to luck and hard work. Throughout the song, Lucci speaks about the loyalty of his friends and the important role they play in his life. He suggests that they will miss him when he is gone and that he will also miss them. He asserts that when times get tough, your true friends are the only people you can rely on, and this was way before the phone.
The lyrics are autobiographical and reflect Lucci's humble beginnings. Before he was famous, he was just another young guy from the block, trying to make ends meet. The streets were his school, and he had no role models to look up to. He relied on his instincts and his loyalty to his family and friends to get by. Now that he has made it to the top, Lucci reminds his listeners that he will never forget where he came from and the people who helped him along the way.
One interesting fact about the song "When I'm Gone" is that it features a sample from Lil Wayne's 2005 hit song "Go DJ." Another interesting fact is that the song was produced by Buddah Bless, who has worked with other big names in the industry like Future, Young Thug, and Travis Scott. Lucci has said that this song is one of his favorites that he has ever recorded. "When I'm Gone" was released in 2018 as part of the rapper's debut album, "Ray Ray from Summerhill."
