Stay Down Lyrics

Artist: Mary J. Blige
Album: Growing Pains

Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
(That I love you)

Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
(And I want you)

1st Verse:

I'll admit
Things ain't been
The way I thought they would be
Didn't expect
So much stress
To develop between me and you
I knew that it wasn't easy
But sometimes when we fight
It don't seem like God's design
But then I hear words you say
And I promise
I would stand for you
And be true
Throughout the bad and the good
And I know what it means
To be committed
So here's a word for you
But you just aint with it

Chorus:

(Stay down)
We're almost to the very best part
(Stay down)
You'll always be the pride in my heart
(Stay down)
We too can past the test
(Stay down)
Yeah we got a lot of work
(Stay down)
I know it aint been the best
But it certainly
Ain't been the worst

(Stay down)
The drama
Will not last forever
(Stay down)
We'll beat it
Long as we're together
One day we'll look back on this
We'll be like "Remember this?"
And it's gonna
Make us smile
'Cause in the end we stayed down

2nd Verse:

I aint gon lie
At times you amaze me
You be talking
And I swear that you're crazy
But I learned a long time ago
That pride don't help, it only hurts
And I just want
You to know
I need you baby
I'm just like Weezy baby
Not Weezy like the son of Baby
But the wife of George
And we movin' on up
10 years strong
And we're looking like a plan
I'm looking like your woman
And you're looking like my man
We're looking like real
And the haters look fake
Especially when they
Hear me say

Repeat Chorus 1x

Bridge:

Understand you are the
One on my heart
And I'm holding yours
So we can't live apart
When things stop making sense
We'll figure it out
I will get to this
And I don't want to walk out, no no
Everything ain't gonna
Be how we like
And what is worth keeping
If it didn't take a fight?
Your healing is me
And my healing is you
So get your mind right
'Cause here's what we're gonna do

Repeat Chorus 1x

Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
(That I love you)

Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
Did you know
(And I want you)
