GET DOWN

Get get get down Ah Ah Ah New York streets will kill us Or walk like Pistol Pete and Pappy Mason Gave a young boy's admiration Prince from Queens And Fritz from Hall of Street Legends The drugs kept the hood from starving Pushing cars Nickie Balls was the seventies But there's a long list of high profile celebrities World wide on the thorough side of things Live as Kings some died One god one time one day grasp me Cause I'm about to blast heat Forty side of burning I turned while he asked me What you up to the cops gonna bust you I was a teen drunk off of brew Stumbled out I wondered did god sent 'em Cause two squad cars entered the block Look at us I ain't flinch when they watched I took it upstairs the bathroom mirror Brushed my hair staring at young disciple I almost gave my life to what the dice do Yeah, man throwing them bones Hoping my ace get his case His girl ain't waitin' for him She in the world straight hoe-ing While you looking at center folds Of pretty girls showing their little cooch Gangstas don't die he's living proof The D･A who tried him, was lying the white dude Killed his mother during the case Hung jury now the D･A is being replaced Preacher Al hearing is over It's real for the soldier Walks in the courtroom the look his eyes is wild Triple homicide I sit in the back isle I wanna crack a smile When I see him Throw up a fist for black power Cause all we want is freedom Grab a court officer's gun and start squeezing Then he grabs the judge screams out Nobody leaving, everybody!
