ILoveMakonnen - Down 4 So Long (Remix) lyrics
rate meFt. Ezra Koenig & Despot
(Intro)
I've been down fo' so long
& I've been keepin' it too real
So I'mma say what I want
& I don't care how ya feel
No I don't care how ya feel
(Pre-Hook)
I lost my friends in 07
Every night I pray to God they made it to heaven
Cause I've been goin' thru the worst
Havin' visions that I'm leavin' in a hearse, next
(Hook)
But I've been down fo' so long
& I've been keepin' it 2 real
Yeah, I've been keepin' it 2 real
I've been keepin' it 2 real
So I'mma say what I want
& I don't care how ya feel
(Verse 2: Ezra Koenig)
I'm leavin' New York, I don't want to pay the tax
I move to Monaco but now I can't relax
I hate myself I think Americans are whack
But otha countries leave me feelin' weird like aftanoon naps
Summer 20-40, Shmoney dancin' wit sum' goth teens
Muthafuckas leakin' nudes, why they got to be so rude?
I lost my samurai, I feel like a fuckin' ronin
& now my only friends are Despot & Makonnen
Gonna spend the Fall buyin' jackets at the mall
Gonna spend the Winter fuckin' frozen in a crystal ball
Went to the Hamptons & I thought I was the man
Till Mary Kate said my Ray Bans were off brand
I kept my mouth shut & I shook Sarkozy's hand
Spit in the ocean, stole a handful of his sand
Damn, damn!
(Verse 3: Despot)
I'm 'bout to right these old wrongs
But not until I get a few mill'
& I been countin' so long
Them dead presidents are skeletons on new bills
Up on the block again but down on my luck
If ya buyin' I got whateva I can sell fo a buck
& I got it fo so cheap
Ya would think it fell off a truck
Now them pockets is so deep
They try to run 'em & sunk
Rocks in socks, I got cold feet
But still married the game, I'm stuck
So I'm dodgin' the police
I'm out here running duckin' cuffs
I ain't gettin' any sleep
These muthafuckas keep me up
Didn't know what day it was
Until the club was goin' up
I ain't slept a wink
My brain's on the blink
The fizz in my drink
Got a strange tint of pink
It's all gettin' pissed down the drain in the sink
It is what it is
But it ain't what ya think
Put a price tag on yo life
Goin' once, goin' twice
Go bust off the culture cypher
& blame it on the poltergeist
Alibis is golden
So I fold 'em like it's poker night
Got the whistle blowers tight
Like I just boned the coaches wife
Birds is chirpin' perfect
Till I shoot 'em out the sky in flight
Chop 'em up & serve 'em on yo turf
Ya know ya heard me right
Got a way wit words
Ya lucky ya got away wit yo life
Not afraid to burn the bridge
It's shady, I could use the light
(Pre-Hook)
Now everybody's on one
I tryna get 'em on at least two
Keep sayin' it's yo last one
Nobody's eva gon' believe ya
(Hook)
But I've been down fo' so long
& I've been keepin' it 2 real
Yeah, I've been keepin' it 2 real
I've been keepin' it 2 real
So I'mma say what I want
& I don't care how ya feel
