[Budden - Verse 1]
13
Look, I was such a lost soul, just wanted to be down with something
14
Look at your son now mommy I amounted to something
15
You couldn't figure out, what I had messed with the streets for
16
Cause you saw my genius without a SAT score
17
I took drugs and laced it with things
18
But you a addict yourself,
19
For you I would peep(?) for places and things (how the fuck you thought)
20
Angeldust use to have me in the hallways twurked
21
I tried to hide it, but Visine didn't always work
22
I needed someone to blame in my mind
23
I thought if you and dad never used dope I would a came out fine
24
And so I hit you hard when you threw in advice
25
Like what I want to talk to you about you ruined my life
26
You the reason why I ended up a con and I knew it
27
The reason I filled my body with that bomin fluid, mommy
28
You the reason that my life's gone illegal
29
The reason I'm kinda different, don't think like normal people, not calm
30
[Chorus]
31
She use to tell me to... calm down...
32
Moms use to tell me to... calm down...
33
(Use to pray that I would) Baby just calm down...
34
You gotta hold your head up cause we gone make it
35
She use to tell me to... calm down...
36
Moms use to tell me to... calm down...
37
(You got to understand what I was going through)
38
Baby just calm down...
39
Everything's gonna be alright
40
She use to tell me to... calm down...
41
Moms use to tell me to... calm down...
42
(But a nigga wouldn't) Baby just calm down...
43
You gotta hold your head up cause we gone make it y'all
44
[Budden - Verse 2]
45
Listen... ain't shit like seeing your moms crying on the floor
46
Knowing you the reason why she ain't alright no more
47
But so young, I was like whatever
48
You use to chase me through the house with the knife like get your life together
49
Fucking drugs, how could I ever amp on you
50
And what made me think that I could lay my hands on you
51
I'm not surprised that you mad at me
52
Much as you hated my father, your youngest son is just like his daddy
53
Mommy I live life rude, how could you not understand it
54
On the same note I'm just like you
55
I got moms sensitivity, my fathers balls
56
His humor, his g, and my heart is yours
57
Fuck school, cause I had my major
58
Come to grips that it ain't so much the drugs, it's the addict behavior (no)
59
Was it the dic charge, the cut that came with it
60
Wasn't really the smoking, but the rush that came with it (wasn't calm people)
61
[Chorus]
62
She use to tell me to... calm down...
63
Calm down...
64
(but a nigga wouldn't) Baby just calm down...
65
You gotta hold your head up cause we gone make it y'all
66
(do it with me people) Calm down...
67
Calm down...
68
(try to understand it) Baby just calm down...
69
(those kind of things) Everything's gonna be alright
70
Calm down... (just bare with me for a... for a brief moment y'all)
71
Calm down...
72
Baby just calm down...
73
You gotta hold your head up cause we gone make it y'all
74
[Budden - Verse 3]
75
I felt so alone, I had a crew, but so what
76
Then when Angela stabbed me guess who showed up
77
And when people said I'd always be ill and twisted
78
And when the therapist had told us that the pills would fix it
79
Was sick of being sick, I was finally hurt
80
With all the praying that you did ma, it finally worked
81
God gave you a son back, I won't offend you again
82
Won't let the disease turn me against you again
83
Use to be high as ever, (but I) Joey Jr. got his life together
84
As a result, now we tighter than ever
85
So blessed, so grateful to be seeing tomorrow (see the whole world)
86
That's why I can't take a drink, not if even a swallow
87
I can't picture me twisted, like what I'm a do now
88
Haters I can't stop yet, my mothers to proud
89
Secure now, don't need to be down with nothing
90
Look at your son now mommy, I amounted to something
91
I'm so calm
92
[Chorus]
93
Calm down...
94
Calm down...
95
(but a nigga wouldn't calm down) Baby just calm down...
96
You gotta hold your head up cause we gone make it y'all (hold up)
97
She use to tell me to... calm down...
98
(Use to pray that I would) calm down...
99
(But I couldn't, I couldn't, couldn't do it) Baby just calm down...
100
(Nothing heals like time people) Everything's gonna be alright
101
(Understand that) calm down...
102
Calm down...
103
(Fucking miracle) Baby just calm down...
104
You gotta hold your head up cause we gone make it y'all
105
(They said I wouldn't reach 21 y'all... I'm still standing)
106
Calm down...
107
