Chris Brown (Prod. By Hitmaka)] Lyrically, the track has Gucci demanding those around him to take his actions seriously and humble themselves, hence the title. "Hold up lil homie tone it down / 'Cause the jewelry that you're rockin' is for kids / I'm a grown up," the rapper insists in his first verse.[http://www.thefader.com/2017/06/20/gucci-mane-tone-it-down-chris-brown Gucci Mane Drops Tone It Down Featuring Chris Brown | The FADER]
