Hook They better Bear Down, you can’t be shy in the Chi (nah) Keep them switches flipping like ComEd lights (grrt) Low zippin’ through the yard, turnin’ dreads to bald heads (brr) So Bear Down, yeah, we meant what we said (facts) Englewood inked on my neck (my neck) Breez Bear inked on the check (the check) Bear Down, we don’t break, we invest (never) South Side breath, I’m the heart in the chest (Bear) Verse 1 Man, my granddaddy was a G, he ran with the founders (real) So my daddy was a G, them pitchforks kept him grounded (on 6) Now I’m third generation, more balance, more rounded (growth) Carry pride like a chain, and the weight’s well-mounted (uh) Bro, 63rd in my DNA, I was born with the code (for real) I’m Walter Payton on the block — see the opps, I run the play, watch it unfold (run it) Chi-Raq just a nickname, they don’t know the real pain (nah) This the home of the Player’s Ball, where OGs spit game (listen) They raised me on morals — “never fold, never fumble” (never) Learned the math of survival, how to flip and stay humble Every dollar a soldier, gotta send ‘em to war Put the profit in the youth, that’s what I hustle for My story ain’t a boast, it’s a code that I bleed Englewood in my soul, that’s a lifelong creed Hook They better Bear Down, you can’t be shy in the Chi Keep them switches flipping like ComEd lights Low zippin’ through the yard, turnin’ dreads to bald heads So Bear Down, yeah, we meant what we said Englewood inked on my neck Breez Bear inked on the check Bear Down, we don’t break, we invest South Side breath, I’m the heart in the chest Verse 2 I seen kings fall off, and the youngins take flight (gone) Seen the block turn cold, but we still ignite (fire) Man, I’m just tryna guide ‘em, no lectures, no shame (nah) Just that Growth & Development, respect in the game (on folks) From the trenches to the stage, still keep it on lock (locked) Every verse like a corner — gotta watch for the opps If you never lost a homie, then you don’t know peace If you never made it out, then the streets don’t cease Used to duck low from the sirens, cold breeze on my face Now I walk through my hood like I own my space Still the same code, just a bigger plan I don’t flex, I invest — that’s what make me a man Bear Down ain’t a threat, it’s a promise I keep You can’t talk for the block if you ain’t bleed these streets Bridge (Chant) South Side — Bear Down (Bear Down) 63rd — Stand Ground (Stand Ground) Englewood — Say It Loud (Say It Loud) Justine — Hold It Down (Hold It Down) Final Hook They better Bear Down, you can’t be shy in the Chi Keep them switches flipping like ComEd lights Low zippin’ through the yard, turnin’ dreads to bald heads So Bear Down, yeah, we meant what we said Englewood inked on my neck Breez Bear inked on the check Bear Down, we don’t break, we invest South Side breath, I’m the heart in the chest
