Down Bad

I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up ain't no way that I could face that
I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up ain't no way that I could face that
I been down bad promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up no way I could face that
I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up yeah

I done been through many phases of life i'm still a youngin
All them demons that been chasing I'm facing I'm tired of running
Coming straight up out the slums its some shit that I done seen
As a teen that adults couldn't handle nah mean?
Felt the smile that I had as a kid start to fade
As the world took my joy and replaced that shit with pain
Chapter one where the pain begun swear i got plenty
Took my grandma from me she was barely in her 50's
Head of the fam so we started to divide
So that left a lot of pressure on the shoulders of my mom
I could see it so a millionaire is what I'm tryna be
Money cannot make you happy well I guess we bouta see
All this pain that I felt man this shit just gotta pay off
The pain in the eyes of my dad from the lay off
The shit that we been through man my time is overdue
Down bad bounce back that's the only thing to do

I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up ain't no way that I could face that
I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up ain't no way that I could face that
I been down bad promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up no way I could face that
I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up

I just got to college moving in to the dorm
Feeling joy so this feeling is kind of out of the norm
In the room wit my homies we having a ball
And the room took a turn off of one phone call
It was Yonnie they said that she had got into an accident
Said that she had died if you knew her she was heaven sent
I couldn't believe it she would always drive safe
I ain't driving til your seatbelt is on she would say
But they say she wasn't wearing hers that shit really fucked with me
She became an angel but her presence really stuck wit me
All this death around me now i feel like i'm numb
Just want my angels looking down being proud of what I've become
Told I'ma make it no matter how long it took
I been down so many times had to put it in a hook
The shit i been through man my time is overdue
Down bad bounce back that's the only thing to do

I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up ain't no way that I could face that
I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up ain't no way that I could face that
I been down bad promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up no way I could face that
I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up

A lot of battles I done fought i don't know how i survived
Many days i remember looking death right in the eye
Almost took my own life at the bottom of the barrel
Tryna find a way out its a lot that I can handle
But with no job and rent due fiancé that need you
Your mental is feeble with no one to lean to
Now you living in the basement of ya lady's granny
With no money to contribute so you out here going crazy
And your lady lost her grandpa she clinging to her grandma
You don't wanna put your baggage on her so you stand tall
Fought my way up out it like Ali back in the jungle
I might take a couple hits but guarantee that I won't fumble
All this pain that I felt man this shit just gotta pay off
Even in a drought better believe that I won't stay off
The shit that i been through man my time is overdue
Down bad bounce back that's the only thing to do

I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up ain't no way that I could face that
I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up ain't no way that I could face that
I been down bad promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up no way I could face that
I been down bad but i promise ima shake back
I can't ever give up

When your backs against the wall always stand tall
Everybody stumbles and everybody falls
But how you bounce back is the only thing that matters
People bound to talk but we don't listen to the chatter
We just down bad bounce back that's the motto
Down bad bounce back that's the motto
Down bad bounce back that's motto
Born to be a leader we don't never ever follow Que
