Big K.R.I.T. - Down Out lyrics

[Intro] Good Lord we back one mo' 'gin This for the people, this for the have-nots. I know what you going through I know what you dealing with on the daily, you feel me? Ain't nothing but sunshine from here. Let's get high [Hook] Sippin' on this drank don't ease my pain Lord, I wish it would Smoking all this weed don't make me sane But it should In a world that's down and out In a world that's down and out [Verse 1] I got my back against the wall Once again, I've been cornered Smoke that roach from my ash tray From the other day and down this last Corona That I scrape for, gotta make more Gotta get mine cause when I get time I'mma get shine and clear my runway And wait 'til I get signed To stretch my wings and fly Do what I gotta do to get by See the world through my third eye Would answer the things I worried about At the end of days, bills to pay If it's a white man's world, am I still a slave To the minimum wage? Keep words minimal, subliminal Y'all won't make it anyway Out the traps they set Follow them tracks they left to the White House And tell Oprah Winfrey I don't need no chicken b**h is gonna turn my lights out On a daily basis Piece of American Pie they cut me, I can barely taste it But I know it ain't 'bout sh** cause my grandma ain't make it [Hook] [Verse 2] Can't take that for granted though I'm still searching for antidotes n***as outchea sick from the money they spent Trying to get more cars and clothes and hoes That really know they poles, is that on earth winning y'all? Is every woman in a sundress, really down for the cause? I can't be sure, nowadays everybody 'bout dough About the play, a queen to be? A gold digger? I can't even say But either way I strap up, wrap up Cause I don't want no capsules after A rock-a-bye that I deny cause she stay on heads like ta**els And that's not to say ain't no queens around my way I seen one the other day, but she had bruises on her face And cried to me that men ain't sh** and she fed up They only want her with her legs up Even though her nose swollen and eye was closed I told her keep her head up [Hook]
