Lloyd Banks - Break Me Down Lyrics

Sometime the pain hurt so bad things can get blurry
But you gon' have to pick one, say a prayer, worry
I ain't scared of death feel like I already felt it
Forgive you for hatin' on me, I know you can't help it

The devil want to take me now
But I can't let him break me down
I can't make no mistakes he's 'round
Feel like I'm goin' crazy now
I'm paranoid lately now
Feels like nothin' can make me smile
I know they want to break me down
Everyone in my face seems foul

Motherfucker you want me locked up, cut up, shot up
Came to fruition I got popped up, knocked down, got up
Back on a mission lost my grand mom two times two aunts
I'm reminiscin' took my best friend grandpops and pops
Now I'm trippin' they would tell me don't take nothin' for granted
I wouldn't listen, signs ain't mean shit without understandin' my premonition
Niggas'll rock you to sleep cannibalism
His slip was already written won't find a manual with him
Y'all ain't love a nigga you just love the way I was livin'
That was my fault holdin' you highest, think that all's forgiven
Spent early years on the VI floor of the prison
Hopin' you wouldn't leave for nothin' and I inherit the wisdom
Want babies to make the best out of life with no supervision
Returnin' from neighborhood wars tallyin' who went missin'
It's your fault it's the second time I'd be a fool for givin'
Someone prayin' on my downfall obvious you been wishin'

Sometime the pain hurt so bad things can get blurry
But you gon' have to pick one, say a prayer, worry
I ain't scared of death, feel like I already felt it
Forgive you for hatin' on me, I know you can't help it

The devil want to take me now
But I can't let him break me down
I can't make no mistakes he's 'round
Feel like I'm goin' crazy now
I'm paranoid lately now
Feels like nothin' can make me smile
I know they want to break me down
Everyone in my face seems foul

Murder's the realest shit I ever saw
It stuck with me forever more than 'cidal
Let down the emptiness spilled out on the floor
Don't doubt that I make a comeback, shit, I done came back before
Gave your ass to kiss, I watched ass kisses fall through the door
Only a bitch is concerned with who someone's nailin'
Only a loser gon' laugh at a nigga failin'
You lose a little them so-called-friends'll be bailin'
Fumblin' words, apologizes comin' off incoherent
Homies'll turn their back with consistency I'm preparin'
Losin' a liability ain't shit to me I'm apparent
You need a partner respect for the one you pair with
Watch who you may welcome in outsiders'll interfere quick
You cross the line you gettin' all my time
I dedicate all of my days to drownin' you, awaitin' your funeral line
Just a suggestion out my beautiful mind
Had me standin' still in my guilt, but now I'm doin' fine

Sometime the pain hurt so bad things can get blurry
But you gon' have to pick one, say a prayer, worry
I ain't scared of death, feel like I already felt it
Forgive you for hatin' on me, I know you can't help it

The devil want to take me now
But I can't let him break me down
I can't make no mistakes he's 'round
Feel like I'm goin' crazy now
I'm paranoid lately now
Feels like nothin' can make me smile
I know they want to break me down
Everyone in my face seems foul

Yo, able to sense what you're thinkin' another urban story
Hearin' the voices of soldiers caught up in purgatory
Happy you left, fuck I need with another burden on me
Hope you live to show off your scars give all the surgeons glory
Avoidin' discussions to shake off the sufferin'
Take some time you're problems mean nothin'
You want to convert 'em and make 'em mime
Playin' a gangsta just to hope for the moment
Your favorite wines, horrible pickin' friends
Then end up with all the ungrateful kind
Envy'll warn you and they show an agenda
To sink the king critical pen in night and day
Maybe I'm overthinkin' things nigga's be on the fence
Eliminate all of the links between
Offer the drama they gon' take you up on it keep blinkin', Queens
Lord forgive me them dark spirits got in me
I'm smellin' death in the air, and now it's startin' to get windy
When you isolate yourself adversaries'll turn to many
If you could only get the chance to you would end me

Sometime the pain hurt so bad things can get blurry
But you gon' have to pick one, say a prayer, worry
I ain't scared of death, feel like I already felt it
Forgive you for hatin' on me, I know you can't help it

The devil want to take me now
But I can't let him break me down
I can't make no mistakes he's 'round
Feel like I'm goin' crazy now
I'm paranoid lately now
Feels like nothin' can make me smile
I know they want to break me down
Everyone in my face seems foul
