Stay Down by TT17 Lyrics
[Verse]
They tell me shine bright, but I think I wanna stay down
Stay down with my face down
Bro I thought would ride, he is lookin' kinda fake now
I'll pull up, and it's finna be a face down
Swear, I got so much on my plate now
Ima date now
I'll drop another single soon, man, I think I guess you gotta wait now
2k, Ima play now
I'll take a step back, look at stars, I'm gonna lay down
I'm pickin' up the pace now
No more tears on my damn face now
No more tears runnin' down my face
I feel like I'm winnin' , even though it's not a race
No competition, but you still in second place
I'm killin' beats every night of the week and you still won't find a trace
6, R.A.D. , I'm a lyrical assassin
I never flex at all, but this money's whеre I'm rackin'
Got a stack so high, my mom asked me how I'm stackin' ?
For еvery single dime I spend, man, I put 100 back in
I don't know what's more; my confidence or bank account?
Bands in my room, but I don't care about the bank amount
I said I'm quitting music, swear, it's lookin' like I faked 'em out
I'll trace it out, my time is now, you know I'm finna say it loud
Play it out
Talk to God, I'm Prayin' loud
Asking Him for guidance, and He told me Ima make it out
"Wait it out"
My time is now, I am one of one
1/22/13, Dad, I see you past the sun
Heartbroken that day
3rd, let that play
Lookin' up at you, like my life is goin' that way
My life is goin' up, my career on a journey
Swear, it took long enough, but I know I'm always learnin'
I pray against the evil, Ima talk to Saint Michael
Wakin' up to grind, my life flowin' in a cycle
I'll blow up in your face like 10 shots from a rifle
I wanna be an idol, American Idol
I wanna go on stage, just to show 'em who I am
My song back with Daniel showed just how true I am
Flex up on the insta as I'm iced out through the cams
They ride up on me now, like they a part of Tour De France
They hop on the wave, but they never saw potential
My life changed so much, 4 years, it's presidential
A mic and my thoughts are the only things essential
I think about my life and write it down with a pencil
Write down my story, look at pics, oh, my shoe game!
18 made me new, my life handed me a new game
Hoes tryna be my new bae?
Sorry, but it's too late!
Writing this right now, 'gon be done with it in 2 days
And record it in the studio, Insta people see me
Paid my dues at current times so I could be on TV
Some dude sent a text and said he really wants to be me
I came back harder than I left, my airpods on that repeat
They tell me shine bright, but I think I wanna stay down
Stay down with my face down
Bro I thought would ride, he is lookin' kinda fake now
I'll pull up, and it's finna be a face down
Swear, I got so much on my plate now
Ima date now
I'll drop another single soon, man, I think I guess you gotta wait now
2k, Ima play now
I'll take a step back, look at stars, I'm gonna lay down
I'm pickin' up the pace now
No more tears on my damn face now
No more tears runnin' down my face
I feel like I'm winnin' , even though it's not a race
No competition, but you still in second place
I'm killin' beats every night of the week and you still won't find a trace
