Jones, Donell - Life Goes On Lyrics






[Donell Talking]
Damn man...I had it all before I got up in here

[Jail Bars Slam Shut]

Girl I know that you been creepin
Can't believe it, but I'm locked up in here
Don't get no letters or no money or no visits
Its like I don't exist
And if it wasn't for my daughters
Then I wouldn't have no reason to live
But I've come to realize that life goes on

Since the day that I got locked up
My lifes been different.. oh yeah..
Cuz she was my soul, my heart, my love, my best friend
I can't understand why,
She won't accept my phone calls..
Shoulda knew something was wrong
When mama said "baby its time for you to move on..."
Now that everything I had.. is gone

Girl I know that you been creepin
Can't believe it, but I'm locked up in here
Don't get no letters or no money or no visits
Its like I don't exist
And if it wasn't for my daughters
Then I wouldn't have no reason to live
But I've come to realize that life goes on

See I never thought that you would
Leave me dry and all alone
Cuz part of the reason I sit where I am
I was tryin to provide a home
Now I know that I'm not going to be there
Like I used to
But your promise to me
Was that you never would leave
And that remains to be seen
I guess everything I had is lost and gone...

Girl I know that you been creepin
Can't believe it, but I'm locked up in here
Don't get no letters or no money or no visits
Its like I don't exist
And if it wasn't for my daughters
Then I wouldn't have no reason to live
But I've come to realize that life goes on

See I had it all...
When I was on the streets
I gave you everything
(Everything that you could want)
Now that I'm locked away
With no where to turn
Now you wanna up and run
(How could you do me wrong?)
All those precious times
That we used to share
Been thrown away
(As far as I can see)
See I gave my heart and soul
And now you turn away from me

Girl I know that you been creepin
Can't believe it, but I'm locked up in here
Don't get no letters or no money or no visits
Its like I don't exist
And if it wasn't for my daughters
Then I wouldn't have no reason to live
But I've come to realize that life goes on

    This one of my jams

  19. C.... J....

    I can't relate to those who been incarcerated but I feel you don't necessarily have to been locked up to be incarcerated. I've gone though depression and anxious, mentality locked away in a world of hurt. Not realizing I was just about to lose all that I had. My wife file for divorce and took our son away from me. The pain you feel deep in soul when it feels like the world is crashing down on you and you can't fathom what's going on or even know what you're going to. This song hit me hard and I would tear up each and every time I heard it. We all interpret songs when we feel a certain way.

    *this is very long lol pls read.*


    my ex who i was with for awhile cheated on me with 9-10 different girls & i’m not over exaggerating or lying, i just loved the mf with everything in me so i fought through all the pain & the embarrassment. i thought i saw something different in him & i thought i could have changed him so i tried my best with him, i finally grew tired of it & broke it off & we didn’t talk for awhile until last year on new years. i unblocked him on every social media & the same day i unblocked him he wrote me & we ended up meeting up the next day & man if y’all knew how i felt when i seen him again 🥺 i got to touch him again (his face) i got to see his silly/goofiness again... all that so then the next day after meeting up with him i didn’t hear from him at all no call no text & it made me kinda sad because i wanted to talk to him about us, so i check snapchat & one of his ex gf, she is one of the girls he cheated on me with multiple times (she gave me SO many problems) she posted on snapchat so i watched it, he was with her & like??? no words can explain how i felt like how you go through all that work to get back together with me & once i give in you do the same shit again it’s like it was on purpose... so i said fuck it i’m through then the next day (lmfao i swear this all happened that one week that january) he ended up getting locked up & my dumb ass sent him a letter a few days later because my feelings were reactivated & fresh 😔 then some days later while waiting to see if he was gone send one back i checked his facebook account & seen these girls saying free him & this & that but something happened in the comments, i can’t remember but there was a argument going on & his friends told the females that he was straight, that he wasn’t missing out on anything & that he be having phone sex all the time & like how tf do you- omg so that was the last straw. i haven’t spoke to him ever since that day we met up & he did send me a letter back & his ex girlfriend moved on & idk about the other “hoes” but i have a feeling he gettin no types of play now. he called me NONSTOP & to this day he still calls me. i have NOT answered any phone calls i haven’t spoken to him! i completely cut him out my life. this is from the female perspective of this song, it may be fucked up that we left you alone with nothing at all but all this time you been gone gave me realization that it’s for the better. all i want tbh now is for him to feel the same how i felt, how it feels to physically have someone but not actually have them. talking to him was like talking to a wall. i just want him to feel the emptiness i felt while with him.
