Dying To Be Down

Way back in the day,in 1987

People used to say I wouldn't make it to heaven

1987 was the year of the trick

Muthafuckas talkin shit cause they was illegit

I used to hang out at the park and kick it with the fellas

Behind my back they talkin shit just because their jealous

Niggas used to diss me sayin I was a sucka

But that girl you all in love with....I fucked her

Nigga be dissin me but he can't see

He takin care of a bitch who baby look like me

But I can't tell him nothin,he'll think that I'm jealous

I got more bitches holdin on my dick than Perry Ellis

Nigga didn't know what I was all about

I got cold dissed when I was down and out

Before you called me a sucka and now you wanna be down

When I was broke you wasn't comin around

Now people give me my props all over town

But niggas like you still dyin to be down

[chorus]

How can I be down is all I hear

But fuck Esham was the slogan last year

Now you got a new one,thinkin you gon' do one

Go put a dick in your booty and screw one

Cause you can't screw me

I don't care if you boo me

But in my face I won't allow you to do me

To be down or not to be down is the question

You'll never be down so don't come around

Dreamin to be down

Schemin to be down

Like Captain Kirk I'll be beamin your black ass down

Ain't no ifs,ands or buts or maybes

You're like a dog with rabies who tried to play me

But you can't fade me so how that sound

You're just another punk nigga...dyin to be down

Dyin to be down means simply this

You don't jock a nigga that you already dissed

And when you start jockin him then he's knowin

You're nothin but a sucka punk ass hoe and

A pussy ass nigga jumpin on the bandwagon

You'll get kicked in your ass like the last dragon

D-y-i-n-g to be d-o-w-n my friend

No way that we could ever be cool

I'm takin all punk ass niggas to school

But, school is out and there's no doubt in my mind

You wouldn't set me up or drop a dime

Once a punk ass nigga always one

And you been a punk ass nigga in more ways than one

Except you keep comin around cuz niggas like you ain't down

You're dyin to be down

[chorus]

How can I be down is all I hear

But fuck Esham was the slogan last year

Now you got a new one,thinkin you gon' do one

Go put a dick in your booty and screw one

Cause you can't screw me

I don't care if you boo me

But in my face I won't allow you to do me

To be down or not to be down is the question

You'll never be down so don't come around

Dreamin to be down

Schemin to be down

Like Captain Kirk I'll be beamin your black ass down

Ain't no ifs,ands or buts or maybes

You're like a dog with rabies who tried to play me

But you can't fade me so how that sound

You're just another punk nigga...dyin to be down
