I always knew that one day
They`d try to bring me down
Way down, way down, oh oh
One day they`d try to bring me down

Always knew that one day
They`d try to bring me down
Way down
They`d try to bring me down

We gon` last today, we have to pray
Besides what the pastor say, I have to say
Since Pac passed away
Most you rappers don`t even deserve a track from me

You see, if you ever wanted to ever be anything
There`d always be somebody that`ll shoot down any dream
There`ll always be haters, that`s the way it is
Hater ni**az marry hater bitches and have hater kids

But they gon` have to take my life `fore they take my drive
`Cause when I was barely livin`, that`s what kept me alive
Just the thought that maybe it could be better
Than what we are at this time
Make it out of this grind, `fore I`m out of my mind

And get some lee way on the he say she say
You girl don`t like me, how long has she been gay
Spanish girls say, "You no able ingle"
And everybody want to run to me for their single

It`s funny how these wack ni**az need my help
Wasn`t around when I couldn`t feed myself
Dog, if I was you I wouldn`t feel myself
Dog, if I was you I`d kill myself

Made a mill myself and I`m still myself
And I`ma look in the mirror if I need some help
And I speak from the heart, y`all all frontin`
Everybody feel that way about K but at least y`all feel somethin`

Would you come near?
I might only [Incomprehensible]
What kind of dream we`ve found
See I`m often at your crossways forgetting where the hell I met ya
Then try to bring me down

I always knew that one day
They`d try to bring me down
Way down, way down, oh oh

Always knew that one day
They`d try to bring me down
Way down

Always knew that one day
They`d try to bring me down
Way down
They`d try to bring me down
No no, no no, no no, no no no
