When it's been awhile since you've ended things, but every new girl you meet just doesn't compare to her, who you knew was special. When you could do whatever you wanted to around her, because she didn't care and she just loved and accepted you for who you were. When with any new girl, you can't feel the same kind of emotions that you felt with her. She was the one who truly kept it real, and it hurts so much that all those emotions are just memories now.
Irving Cruz have you heard that track "call me" bro idk I think this is a close second. But that's #1 obviously its all subject to opinion, just discussing good music💯
This makes you reminisce about that one girl in your childhood during recess everyone was playing hide and seek and she found you first but she kept it lowkey and caught someone else just so you didn't have to count ..... damn straight in the feels
Damn this song is too underrated, I’ve been listening to it since it dropped and its 2022 now and it’s still under 10m views, this is personally one of my fav songs by Nav and I feel it needs more recognition.
"When Nobody was around... "She always held me down... "Way before I found my sound... "She kept my feet on the ground "She always held me down... I lost a special one I loved her so much and she loved me too I'm working also to get my music out Hearing this part always hits me deep. My heary crys everytime I hear this. I can relate Nav
[Pre-Chorus] I've been running from my problems I've been running from you Girl, all this money, all these things don't feel the same without you I can't trust these others girls, I got a feeling 'bout you Even though I'm doing well, I lose my touch without you I hate to hurt you, cameras showing everything that I do Piece of shit, I got a side bitch and I lie to her too My mama asking 'bout you, and I'm finna lie to her too I blew up and got lost in the sauce, and changed up on you [Chorus] But when nobody else was around She always held me down She always held me down She always held me down Way before I found my sound She kept my feet on the ground She always held me down She always held me down [Verse 1] I've been living life on the road Feeling lonely, heart is turning cold I be covered up in sold out clothes Feeling empty, doing sold out shows Use the drugs to cover up my emotions (abusing drugs) Every time you see me, I'm either rolling or smoking (I'm rollin' up) Everybody love me now, only you make me feel important When we settle down, everything you buy gon' be imported All of your friends, they told you, "Don't fuck with a artist" When I tell you what my body count is, that gon hit you the hardest [Pre-Chorus] I've been running from my problems I've been running from you Girl, all this money, all these things don't feel the same without you I can't trust these others girls, I got a feeling 'bout you Even though I'm doing well, I lose my touch without you I hate to hurt you, cameras showing everything that I do Piece of shit, I got a side bitch and I lie to her too My mama asking 'bout you, and I'm finna lie to her too I blew up and got lost in a sauce, and changed up on you [Chorus] But when nobody else was around She always held me down She always held me down She always held me down Way before I found my sound She kept my feet on the ground She always held me down She always held me down [Verse 2] Whenever they took my music for a joke Whenever I ever had my back against the ropes When I was down nand out with no hope She was always down from the get-go She was always down, stayed ten toes Lost my girl, found a thousand hoes She a good girl, don't work on a pole If I need it, she would stash my pole She paid for all the dinners when I was broke If I needed, she would hide my dope Girl, I know you still wearing my clothes I know you think about me when you're alone I know you think about texting my phone I wish you would give in and just let go I'm happy I found out you was at my show You're more than my girl You're part of my soul [Pre-Chorus] I've been running from my problems I've been running from you Girl, all this money, all these things don't feel the same without you I can't trust these others girls, I got a feeling 'bout you Even though I'm doing well, I lose my touch without you I hate to hurt you, cameras showing everything that I do Piece of shit, I got a side bitch and I lie to her too My mama asking 'bout you, and I'm finna lie to her too I blew up and got lost in a sauce, and changed up on you [Chorus] But when nobody else was around She always held me down She always held me down She always held me down Way before I found my sound She kept my feet on the ground She always held me down She always held me down
Nav gets so deep I don’t know if he is gonna end his life because I can tell he’s depressed about love and his relationships but I hope he still lives life ❤️
This a true story, I’ve had a crush on this girl since highschool and never told her how I felt. I’m 24 now and haven’t seen her since. 3 days ago I got a call telling me to come by and have a couple drinks. I showed up and started getting those familiar feelings I had back then for her again. At some point of the night she told me she had a thing for this guy and she doesn’t see herself with anyone else, that shit hurt to hear but I realized I can’t be hurt since I never said anything. And still didn’t when I saw her again. Now I’ve understood you can’t hold back, especially when you’re young and have a thing for a girl, cause you never know what will happen down the road.
it’s kind of hard getting over someone who did exactly what nav explains, when a female holds you down with the same energy as you & makes you feel important all the time, everything without her is gonna feel bland and boring. Fellas if y’all got a female right now who loves you 100% don’t lose her & hold her down the same

“I’m happy I found out you was at my show You’re more than my girl you’re part of my soul” Right in the feels. Ladies a simple hello it’s simply enough. Especially in the morning LoL
Shit gets me every time, always come back to the girl that helped me through a lot...never said id get married but if she gave me that chance again I would in a heart beat.
i recently lost someone that i really wanted to develop a close relationship with and i never too the chance to make anything happen and he used to always ten toes down and listening to this song makes me think about how i lost something potentially special bc i didnt take the leap. trying doesnt hurt

I still listen to this nowadays and will listen to this every weekend. I personally relate to every verse that Nav wrote to my personal experience. I was born upper class but my girl wasnt. Although we had different class background, I still truly love her more than anyone in this world. I used drugs to cover my emotions if i had to. She paid for my food if she had to. She doesnt deserve to treated like how i treated her. Regretting doesnt change any thing in reality. If I needed she hide my drugs. This is the only song in the world that makes me cry whenever I listen to. THerefore, this is my life song for my beloved person.
