"Down Bad" lyrics
Dan Diego Lyrics
(feat. K CAMP)
Nike Boy
[Dan Diego:]
I remember when I was really down bad
Mama takin' care of both of us with food stamps
Back then as a youngin' had to be a man
Growed up, now I'm in popular demand
I remember when I was really down bad
Mama takin' care of both of us with food stamps
Back then as a youngin' had to be the man
Growed up, now I'm in popular demand
He could talk about me, I don't really give a damn
Flexin' with my partners in the club, we goin' H.A.M.
Had to get up off my ass and sell a couple grams
But that shit wasn't for me, neither was Uncle Sam
Niggas try to count me out but I'm still number one
Baby wanna get with me, she know that I'm a Slum
Got it out the mud, I swear it taste like bubble gum
Shawty wanna get with me, she know I'm tons of fun
Bein' underrated keeps me workin' extra hard
'Cause people overlook greatest of the super stars
Been to jail a couple times, I ain't goin' back
Flat-broke, I ain't never goin' back to that
One time for my big homies that showed me the ropes
Told me that the game was sold, never bein' told
But one thing's for certain, I will never sell my soul
Whole team one goal, tryna chase the gold, but
I remember when I was really down bad
Mama takin' care of both of us with food stamps
Back then as a youngin' had to be a man
Growed up, now I'm in popular demand
I remember when I was really down bad
Mama takin' care of both of us with food stamps
Back then as a youngin' had to be the man
Growed up, now I'm in popular demand
[K Camp:]
Single mama with two kids, I know that shit was hell
Seen some shit off in my lifetime I will never tell
I know that struggle, motherfucker, and I know it well
I did some shit that really could've had me in that cell
I'm a rapper, I'm a dawg, you cannot tear me down
If you can't float 'round with them currents, nigga, you gon' drown
I remember passin' CDs all around the town
They tried to play me to the left, now bitch, look at me now
I was dead broke, nigga, I was dead broke
All I had was hope, nigga, all I had was hope
When you at your last, nigga, ain't no time for jokes
Do you think these folks can see you nigga? Nope
I put my niggas on and best believe I'm proud of that
And all these niggas mad I made it, where they do that at?
When I was in the hood just chillin' everything was cool
Now niggas act like it's a problem now I'm makin' moves
