Deep Down
Do I get a say in this
Was I really made for this?
Words really cut deep
Like a knife to the heart, lay to rest, let em sleep
Deep down, I be feeling down, ain't no way up
Talking bout how they living easy like a layup
See, my mom used to trapping daily, gotta pray up
Put in work, even late nights she had to stay up
And Every day, I be dodging arrows tryna hurt my soul
Im working on my heart, so I can't wear it on my sleeve
Building back trust, fixing this story that I weave
Problems that I'm working on, lessons that I'm learning on
Music that I'm splurging on, foundations that I'm leaning on
Beats that I be turning on, my fire gon keep burning on, damn
People counting on me
Money's talking but it's only speaking numbers to me, woah
So if I got a say in this
Let them know they subbed me in this game, and now I'm killing shit
If I got a say in this
Let them know that when I walk through, man, we're living it
Up
We living this up
The city lit up
The gang done slid up
No, I cannot give it up
Now it's time to live it up
Still deep down, I be stuck in my own head
Voices telling me that I ain't good enough
A disappointment, keep my head down before I mess shit up
But I realized now that this my moment
And I could approach this either two ways
Stay the same, never change, let my own people down
Live a life thats constantly drowned by my minds sounds
Walk around, my soul lost, never find a purpose
Nights spent dropping tears, my mind a blank surface
Or F all that, boss up, chin up, the spotlights on me now
So what am I gonna do with it? perform or do I freeze in it
There's consequences for my actions
Time to take responsibility and cancel my distractions still
Deep down, heart still cold, feelings that I gotta try and
Keep down, Dont just stay ten toes, no, I keep both of my
Feet down, I'll ride for anyone, and that's a fact
If this is my life, I gotta act
So if I got a say in this
Let them know they subbed me in this game, and now I'm killing shit
If I got a say in this
Let them know that when I walk through, man, we're living it
Up
We living this up
The city lit up
The gang done slid up
No, I cannot give it up
Now it's time to live it up
Was I really made for this?
Words really cut deep
Like a knife to the heart, lay to rest, let em sleep
Deep down, I be feeling down, ain't no way up
Talking bout how they living easy like a layup
