Down |
You don’t remember what to say, don’t remember what to do |
You don’t remember where to go, don’t remember what to choose, |
You will, you steal, you feel, you’ll kneel |
Down down down down |
I ain’t gonna kneel on down, I ain’t gonna kneel on down |
Seen the rain cloud followed me for years |
But never would let it bother me |
Now when the lightning cracks |
I think I would never be where I’m at |
Cause it had an impact growing up |
Think back I was way too young then to know enough |
About the liberty my mum had given me |
Then the reaper stole the soul of Timothy, |
My first friend I ever knew of |
The worst thing forgot about him when I grew up, |
Cause when we went and moved away to Broom, Perth |
Wasn’t doing much, not for the two of my parents, |
Staring the journey in the eye, |
We drove 4 days and then 3 nights and just like that |
We started a new life and just like that |
On a bus watching fights, and maybe we’d fight back |
Till one of them stayed down, it wasn’t the right track |
If this is my playground, the day drowned out |
The years passed by now just found out |
My mum and dad needed time out, |
Why now, we just settling in and then we fly out, never together again |
Could have severed a limb with the pain, |
Could have pointed the blame but I will not kneel |
Down down down down |
I ain’t gonna kneel on down, I ain’t gonna kneel on down |
I was twelve nah actually I think I was thirteen, |
Well darker the day that I first seen |
The hell mark in the arm of my friend couldn’t tell |
But it felt like a part of me ended |
Depended on crew to lead the way |
They sent the wrong message and lead us astray |
I was able to see the phase was fatal, |
Some crave the painful life and they pay full price |
For their action, addiction, attraction |
Every little restriction fell through the cracks in the pavement |
A slave to the underwhelmed, |
Wasn’t one to tell them that it was dumb as hell, |
And the summer melt them so they stayed in the shade, |
Get burnt playing with fire, get cut playing with razors, |
Amazing how all changes, |
Amazing how all the popular bullies became lamers, |
It’s a page in the chapter of the living, |
Have to put in practice when your rap’s unforgiven, |
But far the times, stars inline, then you missed your chance |
But you can not kneel down |
Down down down down |
I ain’t gonna kneel on down, I ain’t gonna kneel on down |
