Already
D.O.W.N. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Aye, aye
They know how to fuck up your mental
You know they gone hurt you, you don't even care it's cause of the feeling he give you
You just want the love you do what you can to make sure they never resent you
You feel like a fan that's not in the plan you realize the shit isn't simple
You wanted a man but fell for a boy that's gonna hurt you cause he meant to
Got a little bit of knowledge to lend you
If you feel like the problem he don't want to solve it you already know how he did you
You don't want to leave cause you think you love him it's only going to offend you
You feeling alone and want the attention and think it's gone go how you tend to
But listen I promise it isn't
And trust me I know how you feeling
You don't even know what you dealing
He the knife in your back and you far from the healing
It's times where I cried 'cause of her so I don't got a choice but to cry for the millions
I put my pain to this they love what I do it's a wonderful feeling
I know you gone feel what I said PTSD keep one in the head
I'm way to numb I can't even love her feel like I'm already dead
I don't give into nothing that's going to bring pain give into the meds
Speaking of drugs where was you at when Brodie was popping them meds
I know that shit get hard we just gotta learn to live on
These niggas not on your level you better make them get gone
And if they got a problem with it you can send them this song
Or you can send me they number I bet they'll leave you alone
Nigga I said what I meant
Time don't mean shit so I can never give a bitch 100%
It's people that's been together for years that kill they self and they kids
So when she asked me for my love I say I don't know what that is
But I can teach you self-awareness that's shit that I'll give
No one gone cater to you, gotta learn to love yourself
You got a bad past Got demons under your belt
And now you mad at you can ask no one for help
But that's the sad facts you can only help yourself
They know how to fuck up your mental
You know they gone hurt you, you don't even care it's cause of the feeling he give you
You just want the love you do what you can to make sure they never resent you
You feel like a fan that's not in the plan you realize the shit isn't simple
You wanted a man but fell for a boy that's gonna hurt you cause he meant to
Got a little bit of knowledge to lend you
If you feel like the problem he don't want to solve it you already know how he did you




You don't want to leave cause you think you love him it's only going to offend you
You feeling alone and want the attention and think it's gone go how you tend to

Full lyrics:

Cold concrete beneath my back
I lay where I landed
Close my eyes and hold my breath
Worn and empty-handed
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
No lower to go
No further to fall
When you're on the floor
And you're already down, down, down, down
Unending sky is darkening
I turn my head to shield my eyes
Unsure of what's ahead of me
Not knowing has me paralyzed
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
No lower to go
No further to fall
When you're on the floor
Where do you go, you go?
Where do you go, you go?
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
No lower to go
No further to fall
When you're on the floor
And you're already down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
