Get Down [Explicit Album Version]
Nas
Get-get.. get down!New York streets where killers'll walk like Pistol PeteAnd Pappy Mason, gave the young boys admirationPrince from Queens and Fritz from HarlemStreet legends, the drugs kept the hood from starvin'Pushin' cars, Nicky Barnes was the 70'sBut there's a long list of high-profile celebritiesWorldwide on the thorough side of thingsLivest kings, some died, one guy, one timeOne day grabs me, as I'm about to blast heat40-side of Vernon, I turned well he asked meWhat you up to, the cops goin' bust youI was a teen drunk off brew, stumbled I wonderedIf God sent him, cause two squad cars entered the blockAnd looked at us, I ain't flinch when they watchedI took it upstairs, the bathroom mirror, brushed my hairStarin' at a young disciple, I almost gave my life to what the dice doYeah man, throwin' them bonesHopin my ace get his case thrownHis girl ain't wait for him, she in the world straight hoein'While he lookin' at centerfolds of pretty girlsShowin' they little cooch, gangstas don't die he's livin' proofThe D.A. who tried him was lyin'A white dude, killed his mother durin' the caseHung jury, now the D.A. is bein' replacedPre-trial hearin' is over, it's real for the soldierWalks in the courtroom, the look in his eyes is wildTriple-homicide, I sit in the back aisleI want to crack a smile when I see himThrow up a fist for black power, cause all we want is his freedomHe grabbed a court officer's gun and started squeezin'Then he grabbed the judge, screams out, nobody leavin' everybody[Chorus]Get down, get down! Get down, get down! [Repeats]EverybodyGet down, get down! Get down, get down![Nas]Some niggas fuck they enemies in they ass when they catch 'emWeird-ass niggas are dangerous, so don't test 'emThey make you, disappear, this a year that I won't forgetSold CD's double platinum, met mo' execsSouthern niggas, independent label, real killersKnow the business, ran Tennessee for years, now they chillin'They had the coke game somethin' crazySold music out the trunk of they car, that shit amazed mePut me onto heron blunts, sherm or somethin'Took a puff, what the fuck, I turned to punch themSouthern niggaz ain't slow, nigga tried to play meI left from around them dudes, they cool but they crazyNow I'm back around the old school that raised meNew York gangstas, we loungin', out in L.A. seeA dude wrote my dawg from Pelican BayThe letter say, Nas I got your back - the fools don't playI rolled with some Crips down to a Crenshaw funeralNever saw so many men slaughtered and I knew the ho responsibleThe nigga still alive in a hospitalMidnight they crept in his room and shot the doctor tooSee my cousin's in the game, thuggin' and thingsHe plugged me with a dame who was half-MexicanoGave the ass up, I'ma mack daddy SopranoShe passed me the indigo, but the imbecileShould of never tippy-toed, thought my eyes were closedOpenin' the hotel room do', to let her goons inBut I moved in a manner, on some Jet Li shitI let the hammers blow, wet three kidsSee honey thought I had somethin' to do, with all the dramaCause I was with a crew, that had her people killedCalled up my cousin, told him I ain't fuckin' with youHe responded cool, but told me out here this how motherfuckers[Chorus]All I really gotta say is thatIf that's how our people goin' get down, how we ever goin' get up?How we ever goin' get up if that's how we get down?A shame when you ain't look at itMy folk is yo' folk, but we all kinfolkSomebody gotta make a change
