Breakdown by Trey Coachman Lyrics
[Intro: KJ the Illest & Jackie Priebe]
Ugh
KJ
Trey
You know
[Verse 1: KJ the Illest]
They never told me what it be like
It don’t really look like it seem like
Got me stoppin’ at a green light
‘Cause movin’ forward just don’t seem right
I’m just looking for the mil’ life
Or the real-life
Or a mother fuckin’ real wife
And a mid-wife
That know how to cook right
What it look like
Coming at you like hook right
Woah
But I’m chilling
Feelin’ quite submissive
Off the Pacific
It’s so mystic
I feel it in my spirit
Such a vision
Some would say that it’s fictitious
But believe me it’s as real as all these rhythms that I be spittin’
Man I’m that bad
I’m that cold
I ain’t braggin’
I’m just sayin’ the truth should be told
I know you know
I know you know
[Chorus: Jackie Priebe]
We're gonna break them down
Break them down
Oh Let’s break them down
Yeah, Show them how it’s done
We’re not gonna run
We're gonna break it down
‘Cause we're not gonna take it now
Bring these barricades to the ground
[Verse 2: Trey]
To the ground
Make my light shine clear
'Cause they were blind to the tears
And silence is what they hear
Damn that’s all bull
Or they lack nothing inside their skull
And missing a heart in their chest that has a working pulse
These impulsive behaviors creators and fill in these dangers
Don’t favor the opposition
That has my head hotter than Hell’s Kitchen
Cause I used to be broken down
The boulder met the grenade
By verbal beat downs
That doesn’t make ya feel the same
I was a young lad
That had too many insults about my skin tone
The ignorance seemed old
Self-esteem was low
But my hands felt bold
To show my side of my view of the moment
We all have issues and this one’s mine
I walked away from 3 porcelain kids
Yelling the ‘N-word’
They didn’t deserve my energy that time
But that was the past and I’m no longer
Willing to be a pacifist
I’m black and I’m proud
Get in my face
I’m raising my fist
It is all because I was
Being told to shut up to having time to speak
To not reaching expectations that now I beat
So when I’m planning an impact it’s going deep
[Chorus: Jackie]
We’re gonna break them down
Break them down
Oh let's break it down
Yeah, Show them how it’s done
We’re not gonna run
We're gonna break it down
Cuz we're not gonna take it now
Bring these barricades to the ground
[Bridge: Jackie]
Were they should be
Down until we all can see
Where we may believe
So we will achieve to
Break them down
Down
Down
‘Cause we ain’t gonna take it now
Now
Now
Bring these barricades to the ground
Ugh
