Lloyd Banks – When I Was Down

[Chorus]

It only feels good when you come up

Cause I remember how it was when I was down

Thought I forgot? (Nah)

Nobody on my block thought I would pop (Fuck ya’all)

When you on top niggaz want you shot

Why do you think we still keep all these guns around?

Ain’t nothing change

I’m still the same

[Verse 1]

I’m just getting out of my bed

The pain in my head from a hang over

It’s hard as hell to remain sober

I’m looking swell on that range rover

Soldier, And my bitch don’t know nothing more than what I told her

Ever since the stoller

I’ve been a roller

A rider, a lot of shit changed now that i’m older

Move over, nigga this is my shit now

You see the way his head spin whenever I wear brown

The game’s fucked up if I sit down

So I get up

Strap my vest under my shirt, button my shit up

Then roll through the crowd, lit up

Just to hurt their stomachs from the result of a thousand push-ups

You gotta love how i’m doing this

If I get board, i’m gonna call Jacob, tell put a little brew in this

Haters wanna ruined this

Cause I get paid and I walk around high all day like a stewardest

[Chorus]

It only feels good when you come up

Cause I remember how it was when I was down

Thought I forgot?

Nobody on my block thought I would pop (Yeah)

When you on top niggaz want you shot

Why do you think we still keep all these guns around?

Ain’t nothing change

I’m still the same

[Verse 2]

The way I deliver these verses

Tends to keep the song alive

All the weak shit crumble only the strong survive

And with that in mind

I’m tusling with 3 or 4 chicks at a time

Fore fists about to blind

Rubber grips by the spine

I’m lazy as hell

But the chicks love the ground

The strip love the crown

I try to keep my bars so good so they don’t get knocked

And run into a pit stop before a shit pop

It’s all fucked up, niggaz pointing finger in the court room

Till the consequences and cooperating get brought to him (Snitch!)

And ya’ll know the punishment for those that past

It’s a closed casket, black bag made of plastic

Ever since I blew I…

Been listening to [????]

Now i’m out in [????]

Niggaz never knew I

Making it first class whenever I do fly

Knowing Jake wanted to see the whole crew fry

[Chorus]

It only feels good when you come up

Cause I remember how it was when I was down (Haha)

Thought I forgot?

Nobody on my block thought I would pop (Yeah)

When you on top niggaz want you shot

Why do you think we still keep all these guns around? (Haha)

Ain’t nothing change

I’m still the same
