Down

Because we can all cheese, and we can all wild

And when you see Davis, tell him I'm Miles

Cuz' we can play cool, and we can play loud

And even if you're geeked up leaning stay down

Cuz' we live on that

Ground, ground, we stay down

Even in the clouds you know we stay down

Yeah we gon' trip, trip, yeah we gon' clown

But when you need back up, you know who's down

We be standing up tall for balloons and parades

The shoulders of giants pursuits and persuasions

The long path of the greats wasn't paved

But we loyal to the soil that we moved for the graves

And we digging in- yeah we down for the cause

And the calls from the friends who were down from before

We step back looking at the messed that we caused

Hoping that they know you'll be down when it's on

As the plot thickens... that timepiece glistens

As it mocks every glance like a chance went missing

That milkbox mission with that milquetoast motherfucker

He prolly trippin' over grace at his last supper

The stammer the stutter we Geoffrey Rush

We index cards as we work that clutch

We carpe diem but it's never enough

Little Caesars runnin' wild who delivers the trust

Everybody to the totem pole, and draw straws

They all the same length so toast and don't stall

New past, new future, sutures don't fail us

Trust tree strength deep roots and no ailments

Flailing arms and careless days behind us

Forward steps the next we let define us

Let the trumpets blare and live it up

Cuz' you know we always down and we never givin' up

Down like electric grids after the storm hits

Down like investments is in all our school kids

Down like your brain cell count after the cool whips

Down for the dumb shit- even, though it's foolish

Tryna find a bottle with a bottom get a message out

Taking off the blinders, ray charles do the mess around

- pink slime for the mind get a better cow

We can ground beef cuz' that peace got a better sound

But I ain't trippin' like a hippie sippin' cough surp

I'm just sick of seeing cellars with the mossberg

Half cocked, unlocked, better knock first

Second amendments just get a second til we bratwurst

Complicated handshakes for the mock birds

Mimicked by the cynics keep it simple til' we drop a verse

Dense enough to put a lil' dent inside of momma earth

But we ain't tryna hurt, we got alot of work

I'm tryna fill a void, I'm tryna plug a gap

And I ain't talkin' bout some graphic tee's or chino slacks

So let em' lean on that, just like the mannequin

A friendly face someone that they can share the panic with

So take a deep breath, and let it all out

That new soul is something they could never call out

We all down like a bank full of stick up kids

Chicken nugget luggage sweet n' sour through the bitterness
