Going Down Songtext
von Nash

Back in my youth
I viewed this life just like an optimistic
So many old heads taught me lessons
guess I missed the message
This life is so depressing
This life will keep you guessing
It′s like I'm running my third leg
but I keep on tripping
I′m faded, henny sippin'
This weed has got me slippin'
I′m tryna′ find me an odd job,
the streets request him
God give me any mission
My purpose end up missin'
I′m tryna' hit a lick, any vic′ll learn his lesson My mind's a perfect weapon
It′s like my service weapon
It's like I'm puffin′ that nine-nine, I keep on hittin′
This life is such a bitch, fuckin' bitch, Robin Givens
Success I keep on missin′, but I don't wanna give in
So I′m ridin' round, strapped
My baby mamas on my back
And I gotta pay this tax right? Right?
In jail, I′m never goin' back
I don't know but it′s a fact
That I gotta sell this crack right? Right?
(It′s halftime)
(It's halftime nigga)
(Gotta get this money nigga, feel me?)


Down I go, down I go
My life′s like a periscope, down
Down I go, down I go
My life's like a merry-go, round
Down I go, down I go
My life′s like a periscope, down
Down I go, down I go
My life's like a merry-go, round
Down I go, down I go
My life′s like periscope, down

My mama was a crackhead, she sold me for a sack
My daddy was a d-boy, he sold my mama crack
And now I'm livin' with the symptoms right?
Ain′t no place in this world for victims right?
Shit, I′m thinkin' ′bout committin' suicide
I got congenital diseases, screaming ′Help me Jesus'
I know my foster parents love me, they don′t see my demons
I take communion, what's the reason? I'm a fuckin′ heathen
But I′m still breathing, still breathing
I'm waking up to them cold shakes, my heart breaks
I never chose this heartbreak, for God sakes
It′s killing me, I'm thinking twice, not doing right
I′m screwing life back sliding from the crack pipe
I'm snatching old ladies′ purses know I'm doing wrong
But I was born with these curses, Lord I know I'm wrong
So tell me who′s at fault
But life is moving on
Life is moving on
I just gotta get that fix
Was born with this fix
Feel me? Just need a hit baby

Down I go, down I go
My life′s like a periscope, down
Down I go, down I go
My life's like a merry-go, round
Down I go, down I go
My life′s like a periscope, down
Down I go, down I go
My life's like a merry-go, round
Down I go, down I go
My life′s like periscope, down
