To Da River

Ah, for shiggity

Mr. Boney Bone Corleone, Lil Zane

And the one and only busta Javiggadink

(Lil Zane, ahh ahh)

Yo, holla at em Zane

Let em know how we do pimpin'

Wasn't for him, I wouldn't be alive

Chastized for tellin' lies, since then baptized

Look in my eyes can you see the pain

Why does the sun shine when it rains

Hard times got me feelin' daddy never did a thang

I'm Gods chosen he put me in a Rolls and

Keeps my wrists frozen, never brown nosin'

Like an explosion, I cause a commotion

Spit the truth like a prophet, I talk to the ocean

People fear what they can't understand

I thank God that I can, I stay focused keepin' him in my plan

Never losin' my faith, haters gonna try to degrade

Gotta be in my state of mind or relate

Gotta know this is the end and ain't no time to waste

Time to face your fate and I pray you don't end up in a lake

Do whatever it take, so many mistakes we made

But we gon' all get it right once we down by the riverside

Going down

(We going down to the river, take it to the river)

Going down, baby

(Yo, Yo, down to the river, take it to the river)

Going dow-ow-ow-own

I'm going down, baby

(We going down to the river)

I'm gonna lay down

All of my glocks and automatics

I'm charismatic like crack addicts

Ya wreak havoc like road rages and bad traffic

It gets drastic but he's fantastic

And attracting, no more packin'

Now we're fastin', has no more passion

How can I get this life everlastin'

Sick of blastin' and dashin'

Flashin' like Charles Manson

He paid the ransom

Now I'm glory, halla-dancin' (ohwe) like 'hallelujah

I'm flippin' and rippin' a couple-a lyrical sounds y'all never heard

Tryin to reach em partners that be on the corners flippin' birds

Forget the English spit rhymes para mi gente

Buster and Geovanni bringin' beats like Tito Fuentes

Salsa, merengue, ritmos calientes

Azucar sabrosa pa' ti y pa' mi

Headin' down to the riverside so I can let the old man die

When I come out of the water a new man fit to come alive

Revived with the Holy Ghost and tears in my eyes

Going down

(We going down to the river, take it to the river)

Going down, baby

(Yo, down to the river, take it to the river)

Going dow-ow-ow-own

I'm going down, baby

(We going down to the river)

We...So...Hot!

We...Don't...Stop!

We take it to the river

You know we go down, down

Cuz

We...So...Hot!

[T] I'm sick of packin' all these nines, slayin' dimes

And smokin' on the marijuana

Chillin' with dirty mommas from Havana and the Bahamas

Plus demons tryin' to see me hot like I'm in the sauna

And I'm just tryin' to get ya loose kinda like Madonna

[Z] Everybody I know, tell em it's time to go

Me and T-Bone in a six fo' sittin' real low

Bout to roll to the riverside, put that liquor to the side

Ain't no need for gettin' high; stay alive, play it tight

[T] Plus

El Shaddai, Elohim

Got me trippin' y'all

Never really letting down my burdens

Cause I don't want to be left and burning

Flirtin' with death and ain't promised my last breath

Dressed in prison blues, Holy Spirit got me under arrest

[Z] I used to be a thug, sold drugs, might assault ya

Stepped up in the church, got converted at the altar

And I don't fault ya, fell back and he caught ya

Out tryin' to false better live what he taught ya

Going down

(We going down to the river, take it to the river)

Going down, baby

(Yo, down to the river, take it to the river)

Going dow-ow-ow-own

I'm going down, baby

(We going down to the river)

(Going down)

We...So...Hot!

(I'm going down, baby)

We...Don't...Stop!

(Going dow-ow-ow-own)

We take it to the river you know we go down, down

(I'm going down, baby)

Cuz we...So...Hot!

We going down to the river, take it to the river

Yo, yo, down to the river, take it to the river

Come on! Down to the river, take it to the river

Yo, down to the river
