Been down Lyrics

Yeah man my boy bruh

We been fucking with each other since fucking pre-k you know

I remember goddamn when, we wanted to goddamn start writing music

And, and I remember when uhh you said it

And I remember we all started writing

You stuck to the shit

And I admire that shit about you

I only speak highly of you

Your music real

You know how to speak to the heart

Like you know how to speak to the soul

But I admire that shit about you

Like you just put yourself out there

You took whatever came with it

I preciate it, I preciate it

Yeah

Started in the basement

I knew one day I would make it

I was patient

I'm on this marathon

I can't believe you niggas still running races

Niggas didn't believe in the dream

Shit I seen it on they faces

The same one that giving dap was talking shit behind my back but Ian say shit

Don't wait for shit to fall in your lap you gotta dream you better chase it

Cause the time you spend waiting for the perfect time to come is time wasted

And I never needed a passport to validate that I was going places

But I got survivor guilt cause the niggas I grew up with is fighting cases

So free my dawgs

If I had the cash to get em out i'll free em all

Cece fighting a murder case

Kel was stealing cars

And I be writing songs, putting my life behind these bars

That's a double entendre

I use to have a honda, civic

Was getting from A to B throughout the city

It was fucking up the vision

People thought that I was tripping

But that's a sacrifice that i'll make to realign with the mission

I'm committed

Yeah

Started in the basement

I knew one day I would make it

I was patient

I'm on this marathon

I can't believe you niggas still running races

Niggas didn't believe in the dream

Shit I seen it on they faces

The same one that giving dap was talking shit behind my back but Ian say shit

But Ian say shit

But Ian say shit

Nah, nah
