Take Me Under
Tdot illdude Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Focused on my pot of gold
Tryna be an honest soul
Work hard til I'm tired and old
My own lane my side of the road
Write my name in silver and gold
Girls these days is outta control
You outta ya mind you think I'm blind to the facts I know, I know, I know, I know
If I fumble and my money go
Let's see who stay who lets see who go let see who real let's see who fake
Let's see who really mean it when they call me bro
I know I know I know I know everybody ain't for me
I know I know I know I know it's the same story I never let em take me under, take me under
I never let em take me under, take me under
I never let em take me down (down, down, down)
I never let em take me down (down, down, down) x2
Thoughts be running through my mind like all
I ever do it grind like am I out here wasting time
Or is the struggle worth the shine
Everybody think it's working fine but
They don't see me putting in overtime
I'll lose friends before I lose my mind
But I know, I know, I know, I know
Follow but don't like my pic bitch ass nigga get
Off my dick mad cause I got bragging rights
But you don't understand my sacrifice (whoo)
You don't understand my sacrifice
As long as I can sleep at night as long as all my people
Right I never let em take me under, take me under
I never let em take me under, take me under
I never let em take me down (down, down, down)
I never let em take me down (down, down, down) x2
I never let em, take me down, take me down, take me down
I never let em, take me down, take me down, take me down
I never let eeemmmmmmmm, take me down oh no, no no
I never let em take me under, take me under
I never let em take me under, take me under




I never let em take me down (down, down, down)
I never let em take me down (down, down, down) x2
