Down Bad

Plenty cold nights I was sleeping in the whip
Looking like I had motion from the outside looking in
I was told to never let 'em see you sweat
No matter how hard it get, live with no regrets
I was down bad on my ass
Many good nights we had to make 'em last (last)
Too many good fights can't remember the last (last)
Humble beginnings but never looking like my past (past)
Work for a living but never had enough of cash
Momma raised me to be strong tho
Turn all your lessons to better weapons for tomorrow
Acknowledge yo blessing when you can weaponize your sorrow
Young wise soul
Really ain't wanna grow up but it was time to
Duck the smoke and I promise it find yah
Only way out is through that's a subtle reminder
Letting the blind lead the blind and you'll only be blinder
You can't see what it is, should open your eyes up

Where I come from wasn't always easy
Shit, still aint
But I had to learn to fall in love with the process
Had to learn to fall in love with the journey
You gon' fall some you know what I'm sayin, you gon' fall
Get yo ass back up boy

Huh,
Countless nights I was chasing after bitches
They was with it I was with it, had to pacify addiction (mhm)
I was molested back when I was just a jit
I broke some hearts because that shit I had to rectify the issue (mhm)
And that ain't easy, no no no
People I love the most probably wonder where'd my soul go
Probably crushed or maybe I misplaced it on a party bus
If you lost your girl to anybody it was probably us
And not to brag, no
Had a little run of fun but I was sad still
Now I'm mad still, mad feels
Going through motions knowing I crash there
Im out in the ocean without a raft here
Boy you better swim good, grow gills
Sharks in the water and they smell blood, whole kill
Demons drive a hundred miles per hour don't be road kill
Missing shots tryna play the big man like you're O'Neal

Yeah that's it, yeah
Breathe some
Yeah, breathe
Yeah that's it
