It’s been a while since we heard from singer Justin Nozuka, but he’s coming back strong with his song “Gone”. RZA from the WuTang Clan heard Justin’s track Gone (which he only performs live) and decided to sample it for a song dedicated to his good friend and former WuTang Clan member Ol’ Dirty Bastard who passed away on November 13th, 2004. Along with RZA, Justin Nozuka joins Kobra Khan x James Black on the rebuilt song and music video. Check out the amazing video that they did together! The track is available now on iTunes.

Lyrics to Gone by Justin Nozuka x RZA x Kobra Khan x James Black

[Intro: Justin Nozuka]
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone…

[Chorus: Justin Nozuka]
Woke up this morning, hoped that
It was all a nightmare, you’re gone
Tried to get out of my bed
I couldn’t find no reason, you’re gone
It breaks my heart, cuz I’ll never see you again
It breaks my heart, cuz I’ll never see you again
And my heart aches, cuz I’ll never see you again
You’re gone…

[RZA]
Man how I long, to see your physical form
When you left me, a part of my soul got torn
How could a body turn cold, that was once so warm
How could the spark of Allah, in your heart be gone
Who could replace the space, of Unique Ason
I know you’d I’d be strong, and not waste time to mourn
They say that life goes on
Especially when I see the face of your first born
When he’s rocking on stage with no shirt on
Or in the hotel lobby, getting those birds on
Through our seeds we could all reach eternity
Peace and blessings, have a safe journey
I had dreams of us laughing, drinking beer
Chasing girls, fill the world with our ideas
Then I wake up, and look up, and you’re not there
But in my third eye, I know that you’re still here
Because, through our seeds we all reach eternity
Peace and blessings, it’s just another journey

[Chorus]

[Justin Nozuka]
Looked out the window and stared at the son
I couldn’t see the light, I couldn’t see, oh lord, you’re gone
You’re gone

[Kobra Khan]
Aiyo, I can’t stop the thoughts coming out of my mind
In a broken place is where you’re eventually find
This pain, on both sides, can’t deny
Plenty reasons, of you, take us back inside
Where we used to be together, no matter, the stormy weathers
I would ramble with, nothing could ever break us apart
And sometimes would get under the pressure, cuz people jealous
But the memory would be here forever, catching my heart
This is more than you’ll ever know, me and you inseparable
Never do we let it show, it’s so hot I’ll let you go
Try til it last forever, guess I was wrong
And time goes by so fast, and now you’re gone

[Chorus: Justin Nozuka]
It breaks my heart, cuz I’ll never see you again
It breaks my heart, cuz I’ll never see you again
And my heart aches, cuz I’ll never see you again
You’re gone…

[Justin Nozuka]
Love comes with anger and sorrow and you gon’
Tell me how, can I live without you now that you’re gone?
You’re gone

[RZA]
Against all odds and against all squads
And against all evil trying to come against God
We stand with the iron rod, you kneel to Zod
I use softness to conquer the heart
I’m Divine Prince Master Rakeem Allah
Earth bound, but my mind’s in the stars
Things are reborn, life always change form
Man must reform to make the life calm
Drunkenness, leads to non-awakeness
Causing him, to look upon his father’s nakedness
When the truth is heard, there’s no forsaken it
That which is forbidden, we don’t partake in it

[Chorus: Justin Nozuka]
It breaks my heart, cuz I’ll never see you again
It breaks my heart, cuz I’ll never see you again
And my heart aches, cuz I’ll never see you again
You’re gone…
