All Falls Down (feat. Syleena Johnson)

Oh, when it all, it all falls down

Yeah, this the real one, baby

I'm tellin' you all, it all falls down

Uh, Chi-Town, stand up

Oh, when it all, it all falls down

Southside, Southside

We gon' set this party off right

I'm tellin' you all, it all falls down

Westside, Westside

We gon' set this party off right

Oh, when it all

Man, I promise, she's so self-conscious

She has no idea what she doin' in college

That major that she majored in don't make no money

But she won't drop out, her parents'll look at her funny

Now, tell me that ain't insecurr

The concept of school seems so securr

Sophomore, three yurrs, ain't picked a carurr

She like, "Fuck it, I'll just stay down hurr and do hair"

'Cause that's enough money to buy her a few pairs

Of new Airs 'cause her baby daddy don't really care

She's so precious with the peer pressure

Couldn't afford a car, so she named her daughter Alexis

She had hair so long that it looked like weave

Then she cut it all off, now she look like Eve

And she be dealin' with some issues that you can't believe

Single black female addicted to retail, and well

Oh, when it all, it all falls down

And when it falls down, who you gon' call now?

I'm tellin' you all, it all falls down

C'mon, c'mon, and when it all falls down

Oh, when it all

Man, I promise, I'm so self-conscious

That's why you always see me with at least one of my watches

Rollie's and Pasha's done drove me crazy

I can't even pronounce nothin', pass that Ver-say-see

Then I spent four hundred bucks on this

Just to be like, "****, you ain't up on this"

And I can't even go to the grocery store

Without some Ones that's clean and a shirt with a team

It seem we livin' the American Dream

But the people highest up got the lowest self-esteem

The prettiest people do the ugliest things

For the road to riches and diamond rings

We shine because they hate us, floss 'cause they degrade us

We tryna buy back our forty acres

And for that paper, look how low we'll stoop

Even if you in a Benz, you still a **** in a coupe

Oh, when it all, it all falls down

C'mon, c'mon, and when it falls down, who you gon' call now?

I'm tellin' you all, it all falls down

C'mon, c'mon, and when it all falls down

Oh, when it all

I say, "Fuck the police," that's how I treat 'em

We buy our way out of jail, but we can't buy freedom

We'll buy a lot of clothes, but we don't really need 'em

Things we buy to cover up what's inside

'Cause they made us hate ourself and love they wealth

That's why shorty's hollerin', "Where the ballers at?"

Drug dealer buy Jordan, crackhead buy crack

And the white man get paid off of all of that

But I ain't even gon' act holier than thou

'Cause fuck it, I went to Jacob with 25 thou'

Before I had a house and I'd do it again

'Cause I wanna be on 106 & Park, pushin' a Benz

I want to act ballerific like it's all terrific

I got a couple past-due bills, I won't get specific

I got a problem with spendin' before I get it

We all self-conscious, I'm just the first to admit it, yeah

Oh, when it all, it all falls down

C'mon, c'mon, and when it falls down, who you gon' call now?

I'm tellin' you all, it all falls down

C'mon, c'mon, and when it falls down

Oh, when it all, it all falls down

Southside, Southside

We gon' set this party off right

I'm tellin' you all, it all falls down

Westside, Westside

We gon' set this party off right

Oh, when it all, it all falls down

Chi-Town, Chi-Town

We gon' show 'em how we get down

I'm tellin' you all, it all falls down

Now, Syleena, you just like a safe belt, you saved my life

C'mon

Oh, when it all, it all falls down

I'm tellin' you all, it all falls down
