Lloyd Banks - When I Was Down lyrics

[Chorus:] It only feels good when you come up Cause I remember how it was when I was down Thought I forgot? (Nah) Nobody on my block thought I would pop (f** ya'all) When you on top n***az want you shot Why do you think we still keep all these guns around? Ain't nothing change I'm still the same [Verse 1:] I'm just getting out of my bed The pain in my head from a hang over It's hard as hell to remain sober I'm looking swell on that range rover Soldier, And my b**h don't know nothing more than what I told her Ever since the stoller I've been a roller A rider, a lot of sh** changed now that i'm older Move over, n***a this is my sh** now You see the way his head spin whenever I whip 'round The game's f**ed up if I sit down So I get up Strap my vest under my shirt, bu*ton my sh** up Then roll through the crowd, lit up Just to hurt they stomachs like the results from a thousand sit-ups You gotta love how i'm doing this If I get bored I'm a call Jacob, tell him to put a little blue in this Haters wanna ruined this Cause I get paid and I walk around high all day like a stewardess [Chorus:] It only feels good when you come up Cause I remember how it was when I was down Thought I forgot? Nobody on my block thought I would pop (Yeah) When you on top n***az want you shot Why do you think we still keep all these guns around? Ain't nothing change I'm still the same [Verse 2:] The way I deliver these verses Tends to keep the song alive All the weak sh** crumble only the strong survive And with that in mind I'm tusling with 3 or 4 chicks at a time 'Fo Fifth's by the blinds Rubber grips by the spine I'm lazy as hell But love the chips love the grime Love the strip love the crime I try to keep my bars so good so they don't get knocked And run into a pit stop before a sh** pop It's all f**ed up, n***az pointing finger in the court room Till the consequences and cooperating get brought to him (Snitch!) And ya'll know the punishment for those ba*tards It's a closed casket, black bag made of plastic Ever since I blew I... Been listening to you lie Now i'm out in Dubai n***az never knew I Making it first cla** whenever I do fly Knowing Jake wanted to see the whole crew fry [Chorus:] It only feels good when you come up Cause I remember how it was when I was down (Haha) Thought I forgot? Nobody on my block thought I would pop (Yeah) When you on top n***az want you shot Why do you think we still keep all these guns around? (Haha) Ain't nothing change I'm still the same
