[Verse 1]
Never was a quitter so I ride on
19,  more problems
Money  callin' blowing up my iPhone
I'm the one to keep your eyes on
I'm just starting my own grind
Sticking  to my timeline
Focusing  on my own business
Like I don't got time to explore the outer space, but it's all fine
I'ma  take off like a rocket with light beams
When I close my eyes, I never daydream
All I wanna do is go straight outta China
Find my spot in the worldwide scene
All  the bygones, they can be the bygones
Surrounded by fear, turn the lights on
I ain't got no option, already been shut down
Every side of my weakness must be covered up

[Chorus]
I'm going down for real, down for real
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Staying up all night
Wishing my life was not my life
I'm going down for real, down for real

[Bridge]
Thought I gotta graduate but college ain't a place for me
It's the choice I had to make 'cause I got somewhere else to be
Mama told me she couldn't stand seeing me like this no more
[Verse 2]
Done with finals, I'ma run back to a place called home
Long nights 16 hours flight across the time zones
Things changed when I ain't here
All the noises that I can't hear
Stepping in the house shouting mama I'm home
But she moved out from the master bedroom
Don't judge by my 3.9 report card
Please do that when I'm swervin' in my sports car
When I landed JFK my family fell apart
But I called and told them how New York was

[Chorus]
I'm going down for real, down for real
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Staying up all night
Wishing my life was not my life
I'm going down for real, down for real

[Bridge 2]
They fight too much 'til I couldn't take
Now I just wanna sleep, I don't wanna be awake
Getting away
My own pace
All the bygones, they can be the bygones
Surrounded by fear, now turn the lights on
I ain't got no option already been shut down
[Chorus]
I'm going down for real
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Staying up all night
Wishing my life was not my life
I'm going down for real, down for real

[Outro]
Down, down, down, down
Bygone, bygone
Down, down, down, down
Bygone, bygone
Never was a quitter so I ride on
19, more problems
