When I Was Down - Lloyd Banks

[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 (F_ck ya'all)

When you on top n_ggaz 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 in that Range Rover
Soldier, And my b_tch don't know nothing more than what I told her
Ever since the stoller
I've been a roller
A rider, a lot of sh_t changed now that i'm older
Move over, n_gga this is my sh_t now
You see the way they head spin whenever I whip round
The game's f_cked up if I sit down
So I get up
Strap my vest under my shirt, b_tton my sh_t up
Then roll through the crowd, lit up
Just to hurt their stomachs like the results from a thousand sit-ups
You gotta love how i'm doing this
If I get bored, i'ma call Jacob, tell him to put a little blue in this
Haters wanna ruin this
Cause I get paid and I walk around high all day like a stuartist

[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 n_ggaz 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 shall crumble only the strong survive
And with that in mind
I'm tusling with 3 or 4 chicks at a time
Four fifths by the blinds
Rubber grips by the spine
I'm lazy as hell
But love the chips, love the grime
love the strip, love the crime
I try to keep my bars so good so they don't get knocked
And run into a pit stop before a sh_t pop
It's all f_cked up, n_ggaz pointing fingers in the court room
Till the consequences of cooperating get brought to him (Snitch!)
And ya'll know the punishment for those bastards
a closed casket, black bag made of plastic
Ever since I blew I...
Been listening to july
Now i'm out in Dubai
N_ggaz never knew Id
Make it, now first class whenever I do fly
Knowing Jake want 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 n_ggaz want you shot
Why do you think we still keep all these guns around? (Haha)
Ain't nothing change
I'm still the same
