elijah kyle - man down - extended lyrics

[verse 1: elijah kyle]
yeah, had a lot of friends switch up, but i’m doin’ aight
broken hearts write checks at the end of the night
success really hit different when you know what it’s like
being broke, rock+bottom while you’re hoppin’ on flights
and takin’ chances, meetin’ with some people that you idolized
really never made excuses, that’s the bottom line
can’t believe i almost gave up, but look at me now
went from being class clown to the talk of the town
see no limits, never losin’ the vision
failure is not an option, i’m sick of riding the benches
i know i’ll be a legend, it’s a matter of when
no idea where i’m goin’ but my story just began
that’s a fact, dawg
heard your mixtape, it’s sittin’ in my trash, dawg
[?]
game seven with lebron off the backboard
i don’t ever back down
been the best i’m being left in the background
f+ck a bribe, i ain’t never took a handout
takin’ shots at the fam, that’s a man down
see the view, really crazy how it panned out
it’s my season and i’m feelin’ like the man now

[chorus: elijah kyle]
i ain’t never switched sides on the team
don’t know my story, you don’t know my pain
lot of days where i barely got to eat
’bout time that i get this plate
i swear i’ll always be the same me
[?] make the money but don’t ever let it change me
love in my heart and it never was a maybe
feelin’ like the man, this the way y’all made me
[verse 2: jerome the prince]
ayy, i’m from a town that ain’t show no love
but i love myself so i don’t give a f+ck
been the underdog, it ain’t nothin’ new to me
i don’t need to cop a chain, i’m still shinin’ like jewelry
ayy, and i’m workin’ like there’s two of me
paintin’ pictures for your mind, i’m ill+stratin’ beautifully
i see through the fakes, don’t be talkin’ to me stupidly
i’m really gettin’ paid ’cause i beat the beat up brutally
these rappers actin’ childish like the homie on community
thirty+year+olds actin’ like they still haven’t hit p+b+rty
i dominate my ops and i’m seizin’ opportunities
so confident in myself i might write me in a euology
but ayy, i’m nothin’ without the fans who hold me down
and i’m nothin’ without the fam who stuck around
it’s been a long journey but this just the genesis
my idea’s brighter than the bulb in my edison
shoutout to my brother elijah, we strive for excellence
meanwhile, other rappers are strugglin’ to stay relevant, d+mn
another man down, that’s just how it goes
fold like cottonelle, i’m the sh+t and i stay on the roll
jerome

[chorus: elijah kyle]
i ain’t never switched sides on the team
don’t know my story, you don’t know my pain
lot of days where i barely got to eat
’bout time that i get this plate
i swear i’ll always be the same me
[?] make the money but don’t ever let it change me
love in my heart and it never was a maybe
feelin’ like the man, this the way y’all made me
[verse 3: abstract]
lyrically, i’ve been a prophet, my pocket’s profittin’ too
poppin’ off of pop hits, still poppin’ off in the booth
see, i’m proppin’ off some props with props and a couple views
sell a version of an artist, the target’s far from the truth
targettin’ a market that profits off of the youth
feed ’em fiction ’til the difference is dangerously loose
they start livin’ like the artists ’til their name is on the news
and know you ain’t the ones who did it, we just know you tied the noose
major labels more like major fables, we just been the real
independent so we cut the cables then we grab the wheel
to a trend, they’re a slave, way too worried ’bout a wave
i’m a navy seal with it, settin’ sales every day
but everybody wanna live a life like mine
very few are down to go and pay a price like mine
gamble with your life to reach heights like mine
man down if you jump and you still can’t fly
