Crashing Down - Question?/OneRepublic (共和时代)

Composed by：J Jones Tha Monster

Yeah

A struggle

We all know it

Sometimes

Some of us don't like it

This is dedicated

To every other motherf**ker out there

With a dream wiht a dream

People can't win the dream that so many others had

He's 25 still living at his mothers pad wit a spiral notepad

Full of hate and despair

It's him against the world and he doesn't seem to care

But thinks it isn't fair he ain't caught no break

Got arrested last we for a sac a shake

And a couple pain pills that he stole from his mama

From when she hurt her back at work now more drama

Got fired from his job so he can't afford beats

May go this year drop a tape for the streets

It seems the holes deep and it's only got deeper

It feels like he's running from the grim reaper

Putting coke and the reaper and some in his nose

Then believes it helps him to write these wonderful flows

Met a producer at the club and book him a few shows

Appears to be ballin but no one really knows

If ever your world starts crashing down

Whenever your world starts crashing down

That's when you'll find me

Now he just open up for MC lil so and so

And V I P poppin bottles and blowing dro

Met a promo guy from Def Jam named Todd

Said he was cool wit L A Ree but it seemed odd

A bunch of bulls**t just talking off us here

Thinking why would a guy like this be here

But with no fear he gave him his C D

With all the swagger in this

World he said you better call me

But three months passed and his celli never rang

But still determine inside to do his thing

But with no 9 to 5 and no product to slain

Convinced his homeboy cousin to front him a lil cane

But instead of grinding it he starting using it

Lock in his bedroom starting losing it

And when it was gone a month had passed

Scared 'cuz he know them boys coming for their cash

If ever your world starts crashing down

Whenever your world starts crashing down

That's when you'll find me

Borrowed money from his auntie to pay his debts

For the last four days this man has not slept

At a party smoking wit some fools he just met

Hit it hard as hell but didn't know it was wet

Until the smell hit him and he knew he was f**ked

Pissed 'cuz another rapper told him his s**t sucked

Down wit his luck kick out no where to stay

Today his myspace page only got one play

So we took every song he did

And put it on a disc

And sealed Cd's in envelopes real thick

And addressed them to every record

Label he could think of

FedEx over night delivery on the brink of

Death as he reached under the bed and pulled a gun

And later cold steel on the tip of his tongue

He pealed his own cat killed himself wit a gat

Would you believe the next day Def Jam called back

Back back back

If ever your world starts crashing down

Whenever your world starts crashing down

Whenever your world starts crashing down that's when you'll find me
