Get Up (Get Down) Songtext
Yeah, uh, uh, uh, yeah
Huh
Ayy, I seen so many niggas die for it (Die for it)
I'm just happy to be alive for it, uh (Alive for it)
It's a war goin' on outside where they goin' eye for an eye for it, huh, uh, ayy (Woo)
No DeBarge, I took L's, many time I spent (Time I spent)
But I got dubs too, no tax documents (Dubs)
Doors closed, had me locked in, no option
Huh
Ayy, I seen so many niggas die for it (Die for it)
I'm just happy to be alive for it, uh (Alive for it)
It's a war goin' on outside where they goin' eye for an eye for it, huh, uh, ayy (Woo)
No DeBarge, I took L's, many time I spent (Time I spent)
But I got dubs too, no tax documents (Dubs)
Doors closed, had me locked in, no option
Bitch, it's the dog in me, George Clinton and Parliament (Roof)
Pardon me, I'm solution and the problem
She gon' give me head, but tell y'all nothin' toppin' him (Nothin' toppin' him)
I can lead you to the water, but not how to swim
How to fish, baby, G, get it how you live (How you live)
I was tryna get money like Wayne
But since I been in, I ain't look at Cash Money the same (Uh-uh)
Winters, we ain't have no heat, in the summer, it rained
At thirteen, I had to figure how to funnel my pain (How to funnel my pain)
Seepin' in a deep depression, let it run 'til it drain
Now the furthest thing from that, Drake, nothin' the same (Drake, nothin' the same)
Some niggas got nothin' to lose, but nothin' to gain
I never fucked with the fame, it's insane
I seen so many niggas die for it (Die for it)
I'm just happy to be alive for it, huh (Woo)
It's a war goin' on outside where they goin' eye for an eye for it
So get up
I seen so many niggas die for it (Die for it)
I'm just happy to be alive for it, huh (Alive for it) It's a war goin' on outside where they goin' eye for an eye for it
So get up, so get up, get up
War stories with my uncles, they makin' me cautious (Uh)
Sharp pain in my stomach, it's makin' me nauseous (Ah)
How the fuck can I complain like I had it the hardest?
When it's shells on the trails from the home they departed? (Who?)
Where Lords and Jehovah waitin' on 'em
The rebels in they face, all you see is Satan on 'em (Uh)
Another sabotage and corrupted by the system (Yeah)
Pistol sound off when this shit get vicious (Brrt)
Critical in the village, tribes willin' to die over they living conditions
Kids ready to slide for generals like Idris
The beast of no nation, feast with no patience
Piece that they tote 'cause they peaceful, can't fake it
Jesus can't save 'em, the hellish location
So where would I be if my family ain't make it?
Out of them cages
And now I'm here to flip the fuckin' pages
Seen so many niggas die for it (Die for it)
I'm just happy to be alive for it, ayy (Woo)
It's a war goin' on outside where they goin' eye for an eye for it, huh
I seen so many niggas die for it (Die for it)
My oma, baba done cried for it, ayy (Cried for it)
It's a war goin' on outside and they goin' eye for an eye for it
So get up, so get up, so get up
Pardon me, I'm solution and the problem
She gon' give me head, but tell y'all nothin' toppin' him (Nothin' toppin' him)
I can lead you to the water, but not how to swim
How to fish, baby, G, get it how you live (How you live)
