Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah yeah
I'm only down, I'm only down for you
Yeah yeah
I'm only down, I'm only down for you, oh
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah yeah yeah
Don't make a sound, don't make a sound, girl
Yeah, I'm only down, I'm only down for you
Tellin' me quiet, don't make a sound for you, uh
Roll out the red carpet on the ground for you
G5, blowin' that loud up in the clouds with you (yeah, yeah)
Them other girls, they look like clowns 'round you (yeah, yeah)
And no other girl can take that crown from you, oh (yeah, yeah)
And you give good head, make daddy real proud of you (yeah, yeah)
That's true

I'm only down, I'm only down
I'm only down, I'm only down
Down

And all those other girls that you think I'm creepin' 'round with, I ain't, girl
I'm only down for you
I'm only down for you, but your friends say it just ain't true
I'm only down, only down for you
No Kendrick but Peter Piper picked a pack of peppers
We were supposed to be forever ever
That turned into worse and ever ever
I was in the gas room stressin' 'bout whatever
Pop pills like Skittles back then
You wasn't even real with me back then
I done change now, I done change now
I'm only down, I'm only down for you

I'm only down, I'm only down
I'm only down, I'm only down
Down

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah)
Lookin' like I stepped out a coffin (coffin)
White boys call a nigga awesome (awesome)
You know I do this shit, make it often (often)
Hatin' ass bitches, I get 'em off, yeah
Buttercream, buttercream, got you saucin' (saucin')
Grill on your teeth, got you flossin' (flossin')
Winnin' team, winnin' team, no losses (losses)
And we don't give a damn what it's costin'
I'ma lay it down like a nigga got a verse on it (verse on it)
Dead ass, I'ma put the hearse on it (hearse on it)
Communication, I know that I gotta work on it (work on it)
But you're killing me baby, I need a nurse on it (oh)
Supreme LV's on your purse and your clothes (clothes)
Tell them other bitches that the first gotta go (go)
Niggas all done put the curve on 'em (curve on 'em)
Tellin' you say pin the rape wheel, swerve on 'em (oh)
You ain't gotta stress baby, oh
Them hoes make a mess baby, oh
Whippin' in the Tesla four door
And baby, trust me when I tell ya I ain't worried 'bout it

And all those other girls that you think I'm creepin' 'round with, I ain't girl
I'm only down
I'm only down for you, but your friends say it just ain't true
I'm only down

I'm only down, I'm only down for you
For you, for you
I'm only down, I'm only down
Down





And all those other girls that you think I'm creepin' 'round with, I ain't girl
I'm only down for you, yeah

Overall Meaning

In this collaboration between Lil Boosie and T-Pain, the former expresses his devotion to his significant other. He emphasizes that he is "only down" for her and no other girl can compare to her. He even compliments her on her skills in the bedroom, proud to have her as his partner. However, there seems to be some doubt and mistrust from the girl's friends who claim that Lil Boosie is not faithful to her. Lil Boosie reassures her that he is telling the truth and his love is only for her.


The song features Lil Boosie's signature raw and honest lyrics, but is softened by T-Pain's smooth and polished vocals. It includes references to drugs and material possessions, but these are presented as luxuries he can share with his lover, rather than a reflection of his character. Despite external doubts, the message of the song is clear: Lil Boosie is committed to his partner, and nothing will shake that devotion.


Interestingly, Lil Boosie had to record the song over the phone, while he was incarcerated, due to his legal issues in 2011. He was serving time for drug and gun charges, which explains the references to drugs in the lyrics. The song was later released as a single in 2014, after he was released from prison.
