I Been Down

[Intro]
And I'm still here with who I started with
Not your average, I am not the one to bargain with
I am not the one to, no
Yeah
Mm

[Verse 1]
And I'm still here with who I started with
Not your average, I am not the one to bargain with
Competition, target practice, I don't see no targets here
I fear God and that's all I feel
This is not a starter kit
This is not Guess, this is Gucci to the Cardigan down to the Moccasins
This is not a brag, I could hardly care
Lately, I've been buggin', buyin' clothes that I'ma hardly wear
Bein' broke is what I feel

[Chorus]
I been down
Yeah, I been down
I been down, but we up now
I been down
Yeah, I been down (Yeah, I been down)
I been down, but we up now

[Verse 2]
Here now, so I'ma make it last
Look for the future, I can't live in the past and, uh
I seen the picture, the- died in the crash
But, uh, thank God I ain't too cool for the safe-belt
My two kids in the back, can't imagine how they felt
And they cried and they wept and they wept, but they're strong
And we move on
Five steps back, but bet that I'll put ten on (Yeah)
I'll put ten on high

[Bridge]
Thought we were high, but we gon' go higher
With all that I know, know it was a liar
Thought we were high, but we gon' go higher
With all that I know, know it was a liar

[Chorus]
I been down
Yeah, I been down
I been down, but we up now
I been down
Yeah, I been down
I been down, but we up now
