Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Hey where were you

when I was down bad

Where were you when

I was at my last

Where were you when

I ain't had no where to go

Where were you when

I was locked up no letters wrote

Where were you

And I don't know what I'm saying

And no baby I ain't playing

Understand I'm a man

Nowhere to be found

So when I make it up to the top

The only thing down is the ground

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Where were you

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Where were you

Where were you when I was down

Where were you when I was broke

You were nowhere to be found

When I needed you the most

Where were you when I needed to talk

Someone who can be trusted

Where were you when I was down

Sick and disgusted

Where were you when I was small

Got the bands when I was grown

They all laughed in my face

Cause you see I got this song

I can kill a nigga on my own

Got young girls don't trust them

And I heard it bust pipes

But I ain't applying no pressure

I'm a kill these niggas so fast

I'm a deal these niggas that Clad

And I'm a laugh tell the

Baboon kiss my ass

And I'm a pass it

No adlib

I got 4-4

And I call him Pete Maverick

And he a Maverick and he blasting

He'll shoot a nigga balling Balling

Shooting I'm Spalding

Everybody know me nigga

I like to rock a box

Like a Goatee nigga

Yeah I'm shining

Like some gold teeth nigga

Young [?] Deep nigga

Big weight I move that

Just tell me where were you

Hey where were you

when I was down bad

Where were you when

I was at my last

Where were you when

I ain't had no where to go

Where were you when

I was locked up no letters wrote

Where were you

And I don't know what I'm saying

And no baby I ain't playing

Understand I'm a man

Nowhere to be found

So when I make it up to the top

The only thing down is the ground

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Where were you

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Where were you

Where were you when I was on my last dollar

I couldn't even

Get no holler

When I was stressing back then

When a lame nigga killed my partner

When I was out on my ass

I was working at [?]

Niggas ain't want no feature

From me they didn't even ask me

I got my views up

They see me on that Youtube

Now they saying I'm lame

Because we ain't speaking like we use to

They want to hang with the kid

Cause big shit popping

Nigga use to open up for me

When I had lets go shopping

No need to say no names

Cause I ain't take it to the heart

The only niggas fucking with me now

My niggas from the start

Shoutout to loco I love you

He put his faith in me

We going be straight soon

His angel watching over me (Ya Dig)
