I'm hopin' I don't look down
Ayy, long enough to see me drown
And if I ever come down
I'll be fallin' on the solid ground
Sanderlei Silveira - 24/06/2023 - BR X
I'm hopin' I don't look down
Ayy, long enough to see me drown
And if I ever come down
I'll be fallin' on the solid ground
Fallin' on the solid ground
Ayy, long enough to see me drown
And if I ever come down
I'll be fallin' on the solid ground
[Verse]
Today, I had a conversation with one of my bros
My homie, he's been close to me since we were six years old
He calls my mama, "Mom," he seen all of my highs and lows
From school fights to sharin' clothes
From B-ball to fuckin' hoes
He sat me down and let me know some things he never told me
Things he never got a chance to say or even show me
He said, "I know I don't tell you often, maybe not even at all
But I'm so proud of you and your success, broski
And I admire how you chase your dreams, that shit's courageous
Thank you for never switchin' up when you got rich and famous
Thank you for never givin' up on me or havin' lesser love for me
Whenever we lose touch and be on different pages
I hope you know I'm here for you the way you there for me
It's crazy, you done more for me than all my family tree
And when I say I got your back, just know I really squeeze
And make some niggas really bleed, that's really what I really mean
I'm proud of how much you matured and grew, but you still you
The world knows you for your talent, but I know the real you
And all your trauma's behind closed doors, you'll never heal through
And all the pain, you act like you don't feel, but you still do
I love the fact you keep your shit together, mentally
You work hard for your respect, don't need no empathy
When people look you over and shut you out intentionally
You always said, 'If they don't fuck with you, they will eventually'
But remember when I went through prison?
When I did a bid and you the only one that came to visit?
Put money on my books and sent me pictures of some bitches?
They don't make 'em like you no more, my nigga, you just different
And bro, you ain't have to pay my niece's tuition
Or set me up with that new job and try to teach me the business
Always quick to hold me down before you speak your opinion
What goes around, comes around and that's the reason you winnin'
But listen, I was thinkin', maybe
Since you my broski and I been there since we was babies
You can hit the bank and break me off with somethin' wavy?
Maybe just a couple hundred-thousand? Nothin' crazy
Cause I been hurtin' lately and I deserve it, maybe
And if you can't do it, that's cool, it ain't like I'll be angry
You still my broski and I love you, but that's kind of shady
Cause I been goin' through some shit, it ain't like I'm just lazy
So maybe you should pay me
I quit my job 'cause I don't wanna work for no other niggas
What maybe works for some, don't work for some other niggas
Yeah, they pay good, but you know I'm a stubborn nigga
Plus, I know you got my back, right?
If not, then fuck it, I ain't askin' again
Just don't forget who walked with you when your back to the wind
And don't forget who's ideas that got you rappin' again
When you lost your passion and got lazy, and was slackin' and shit
And please don't treat me like them niggas that be askin' for shit
Cause I never asked you for a damn thing
I'd rather pull a hamstring and then run across some fan blades while jumpin' out a airplane
While sittin' in the damn rain, while beggin' for some spare change
I'm sorry that we all can't be talented and rich like you
The little people still struggle, we ain't lit like you
And if we bein' honest, it don't really seem like you want me to chase my dreams so I can get like you
And lately, you been on some sucker shit, that's what I see, broski
I hope you know that hater shit is a disease, broski
Cause last time I checked, we was a fuckin' team
And just because you got paper, don't mean that you better than me, broski
I know everything about you
I know every single secret
I know where you rest your head at
I know every bitch you sleep with
I know where you keep your bread at
I pretended I don't see shit
You a greedy motherfucker, you been hopin' I don't be shit
You been gettin' fat while I been starvin'
You been buyin' every car and house while I been in the garbage
I deserve everything you got and more, and that's a bargain
You just wanna shit on me and see me fall, and that's alarmin'
You just hopin' I'ma tarnish
You don't want me to be nothin'
You don't wanna open doors for me
You did a lil' somethin', but you could've did a lil' more for me
No wonder why your father turned his back on you, unfortunately
No wonder why your niggas set them traps on you to sorcery
You ain't nothin' but a phony, you a liar, you a snake
And you can rap but you ain't Kendrick, you ain't Cole, you ain't Drake
Can't believe I called you family, I should shoot you in the face
Used to act like you was real, but always knew that you was fake
You let the fame get to your head and all it did was made you whack
I always knew the day would come when you would stab me in my back
One day, your money gon' be gone and I'll be happy, that's a fact
And then you'll move back to the hood and I'll be laughin' when you back
But you my nigga and I love you
And I wanna see you win, I wouldn't place no one above you
And you always been my friend since we was steppin' in the puddles
Real niggas don't pretend 'cause you're my brother, you my double
You my motherfuckin' twin, and I wanna let you know how I appreciate the things you show me
It's kind of hard to trust niggas, that's why I keep you closely
And look, I know that I don't tell you often, maybe not even at all
But I'm so proud of you and your success, broski"

I'm hopin' I don't look down
Ayy, long enough to see me drown
And if I ever come down
I'll be fallin' on the solid ground
Fallin' on the solid ground
Ayy, long enough to see me drown
And if I ever come down
I'll be fallin' on the solid—
Can't take care of later—

Nadam se da ne gledam dole
Ayy, dovoljno dugo da me vidi
A ako ikad siđem
Ja ću pasti na čvrstom tlu
Pad na čvrstom tlu
Ayy, dovoljno dugo da me vidi
A ako ikad siđem
Ja ću pasti na čvrstom tlu

Danas sam razgovarao sa jednim od mojih brosa
Moj homie, bio mi je blizak od kada smo imali šest godina
Zove moju mamu: "Mama", video je sve moje vrhunce i padove
Iz školskog borbi za dijeljenje odjeće
Od B-Ball do jebenih motika
Sjeo me je i javio mi je neke stvari koje mi nikad nije rekao
Stvari koje nikad nije dobio priliku reći ili mi čak pokazati
Rekao je: "Znam da vam ne kažem često, možda čak ni
Ali tako sam ponosan na tebe i tvoj uspjeh, Broski
A divim se kako si loviti svoje snove, to sranje hrabro
Hvala što nikad ne uključite kad ste dobili bogat i poznat
Hvala što nikad ne voliš na mene ili nemaš manju ljubav prema meni
Kad god izgubimo dodir i budemo na različitim stranicama
Nadam se da znate da sam tu za vas takvim kakav ste tamo za mene
Ludo je, učinio si više za mene nego sav moje porodično stablo
A kad kažem da sam vam vratio leđa, samo znam da se stvarno stisnem
I učinite da neke crkvene crkvene, to je stvarno ono što stvarno mislim
Ponosan sam na koliko ste sazreli i rasli, ali ti si još uvijek
Svijet vas poznaje za svoj talenat, ali znam pravu
I sva vaša trauma iza zatvorenih vrata, nikad se nećete izliječiti
I svu bol, ponašate se kao da se ne osjećate, ali još uvijek radite
Volim činjenicu da zajedno sranjem sranje, mentalno
Radite naporno za svoje poštovanje, ne treba vam empatija
Kad vas ljudi gledaju i namjerno vas isključuju
Uvek si govorio: "Ako se ne zajebavaju s tobom, na kraju će"
Ali zapamtite kad sam prošao kroz zatvor?
Kada sam uradio ponudu i vi jedini koji je došao u posetu?
Stavite novac na moje knjige i poslao mi slike nekih kuja?
Ne čine ih više kao da više ne, moj crnjo, samo se razlikuješ
I brate, ne morate platiti školarinu moju nećakinju
Ili me postavite s tim novim poslom i pokušajte da me naučite posao
Uvek me brzo držite pre nego što kažete svoje mišljenje
Ono što se događa, dolazi okolo i to je razlog što vi pobjeđuješ
Ali slušaj, možda sam mislio, možda
Otkad si moj Broski i bio sam tamo otkad smo bili bebe
Možete udariti u banku i razbiti me s nešto valovitom?
Možda samo nekoliko stotina hiljada? Ništa nije ludo
Jer u posljednje vrijeme povrijedim i to zaslužujem, možda
A ako ne možete, to je u redu, ne voli da ću biti ljuta
Ti si još uvijek moj broški i ja te volim, ali to je vrsta sjenovita
Jer sam prolazio kroz neko sranje, nije mi kao da sam samo lijen
Pa možda bi trebao da mi platiš
Prestao sam na svom poslu jer ne želim raditi za nijednu drugu crnce
Što možda djeluje za neke, nemojte raditi za neke druge crnce
Da, oni plaćaju dobro, ali znate da sam tvrdoglav crnja
Plus, znam da si mi dobio leđa, zar ne?
Ako ne, onda ga jebi, ne pitam ponovo
Samo nemojte zaboraviti ko je hodao s tobom kad si leđa na vjetru
I ne zaboravite ko su ideje koje ste ponovo razišli
Kad ste izgubili strast i postali lijeni, i da li je nestao i sranje
I molim te, ne tretiraj me kao da crte koji se pitaju za sranje
Jer te nikad nisam pitao za prokletu stvar
Radije bih povukao hitnu i zatim naišao preko nekih lopatica ventilatora dok sam skočio avion
Dok se sjedi u prokletom kiši, dok se moli za neke rezervne promjene
Žao mi je što svi ne možemo biti talentovani i bogati poput tebe
Mali ljudi se još uvijek bore, nismo se osvijetli poput tebe
A ako budemo iskreni, ne čini se zaista kao da želite da progonem svoje snove kako bih mogao da postanem poput tebe
I u posljednje vrijeme si bio na neku sisa, to vidim, Broski
Nadam se da znate da je sranje Hater bolest, Broski
Uzrok Prošli put kad sam provjerio, bili smo jebeni tim
I samo zato što imate papir, ne mislite da ste bolji od mene, Broski
Znam sve o tebi
Znam svaku tajnu
Znam gdje odmarate glavu u
Znam svaku kuju sa kojom spavam
Znam gdje držiš svoj hljeb na
Pretvarao sam se da ne vidim sranje
Ti si pohlepna jebač, nadaš se da ne budem sranje
Dobili ste masnoću dok sam glumio
Kupili ste svaki automobil i kuću dok sam bio u smeću
Zaslužujem sve što ste dobili i još više, i to je pregovaranje
Samo želiš sranje na mene i vidjeti me da padnem, a to je alarm
Samo se nadaš da sam tarni
Ne želiš da to ništa neću
Ne želite da otvorite vrata za mene
Učinio si lil 'nešto', ali mogao si učiniti lil više za mene
Nije ni čudo zašto se tvoj otac vratio na tebe, nažalost
Nije ni čudo zašto ih vaši crnjaci postavi za zamke na čarobnjaštvo
Nisi ništa, već lažov, lažov, zmija
I možeš rep, ali nisi Kendrick, nisi Cole, nisi drake
Ne mogu da verujem da sam te zvao porodicu, trebao bih te upucati u lice
Nekad se ponašao kao da si stvaran, ali uvijek je znao da si lažan
Pustili ste da vam slava dođe do glave i sve što je učinio da je udario
Oduvek sam znao da će dan doći kad me ubodaš u leđa
Jednog dana, vaš novac gon 'neće biti i ja ću biti sretan, to je činjenica
A onda ćete se vratiti na kapuljaču i ja ću se smejati kad se vratite
Ali ti si moj crnja i volim te
I želim da vidim kako pobedite, ne bih nikome iznad tebe stavio iznad tebe
I uvijek si moj prijatelj otkad smo bili u koluta
Pravi crnja ne pretvaraju se jer si moj brat, moj dvostruki moj
Ti si moj jebeni blizanci, i želim da ti kažem kako cijenim stvari koje mi pokažeš
Nekako je teško poveriti crnjacima, zato vas držim pažljivo
I gledaj, znam da vam ne kažem često, možda čak ni
Ali tako sam ponosan na tebe i tvoj uspjeh, Broski "

A ako ikad siđem
Ja ću pasti na solidno-
