All Falls Down |
Oh, when it all, it all falls down |
Yeah, this the real one, baby |
I’m tellin' you all, it all falls down |
Uh, Chi-Town, stand up! |
Oh, when it all, it all falls down |
Southside, Southside |
We gon' set this party off right |
I’m tellin' you all, it all falls down |
Westside, Westside |
We gon' set this party off right |
Oh, when it all |
Man, I promise, she’s so self-conscious |
She has no idea what she doin' in college |
That major that she majored in don’t make no money |
But she won’t drop out, her parents’ll look at her funny |
Now, tell me that ain’t insecurr |
The concept of school seems so securr |
Sophomore, three yurrs, ain’t picked a carurr |
She like, «Fuck it, I’ll just stay down hurr and do hair» |
'Cause that’s enough money to buy her a few pairs |
Of new Airs, 'cause her baby daddy don’t really care |
She’s so precious with the peer pressure |
Couldn’t afford a car, so she named her daughter Alexis |
She had hair so long that it looked like weave |
Then she cut it all off, now she look like Eve |
And she be dealin' with some issues that you can’t believe |
Single black female addicted to retail, and well |
Oh, when it all, it all falls down |
And when it falls down, who you gon' call now? |
I’m tellin' you all, it all falls down |
C’mon, c’mon, and when it falls down |
Oh, when it all |
Man, I promise, I’m so self-conscious |
That’s why you always see me with at least one of my watches |
Rollie’s and Pasha’s done drove me crazy |
I can’t even pronounce nothin', pass that Ver-say-see! |
Then I spent four hundred bucks on this |
Just to be like, «Nigga, you ain’t up on this» |
And I can’t even go to the grocery store |
Without some Ones that’s clean and a shirt with a team |
It seem we livin' the American Dream |
But the people highest up got the lowest self-esteem |
The prettiest people do the ugliest things |
For the road to riches and diamond rings |
We shine because they hate us, floss 'cause they degrade us |
We tryna buy back our 40 acres |
And for that paper, look how low we’ll stoop |
Even if you in a Benz, you still a nigga in a coupe |
Oh, when it all, it all falls down |
Come on, come on |
I’m tellin' you all, it all falls down |
And when it falls down, who you gon' call now? |
Oh, when it all, it all falls down |
Come on, come on |
I’m tellin' you all, it all falls down |
And when it all falls down |
I say, «Fuck the police,» that’s how I treat 'em |
We buy our way out of jail, but we can’t buy freedom |
We’ll buy a lot of clothes, but we don’t really need 'em |
Things we buy to cover up what’s inside |
'Cause they made us hate ourself and love they wealth |
That’s why shorty’s hollerin', «Where the ballers at?» |
Drug dealer buy Jordan, crackhead buy crack |
And the white man get paid off of all of that |
But I ain’t even gon' act holier than thou |
'Cause fuck it, I went to Jacob with 25 thou |
Before I had a house and I’d do it again |
‘Cause I wanna be on 106 & Park, pushin' a Benz |
I want to act ballerific like it’s all terrific |
I got a couple past-due bills, I won’t get specific |
I got a problem with spendin' before I get it |
We all self-conscious, I’m just the first to admit it |
Oh, when it all, it all falls down |
C’mon, c’mon |
And when it falls down, who you gon' call now? |
I’m tellin' you all, it all falls down |
C’mon c’mon, and when it falls down |
Oh, when it all, it all falls down |
Southside, Southside |
We gon' set this party off right |
I’m tellin' you all, it all falls down |
Westside, Westside |
We gon' set this party off right |
Oh when it all, it all falls down |
Chi-Town, Chi-Town |
We gon' show 'em how we get down |
I’m tellin' you all, it all falls down |
Now, Syleena, you just like a safe belt, you saved my life |
Oh when it all, it all falls down |
I’m tellin' you all, it all falls down |
