lirik lagu arrested development - back down
yo what’s up
yo what’s up
hey
a yo
you claim that you bang, its insane
a white supremacists campaign
when we’re slain, its mundane
rappers k!lled in public domains
and we just tweet thangs
hashtag gone too soon
on to the next thing
death has become an art
rapping with hand grenades
osama bin laden sure ain’t got nada on drama
secretly ordered by the cia
black ops with the dea
black cops with these white cops
on those black blocks and they must obey
reconnaissance on citizens
they’re melanated they’re innocent
lets elevate our militance
and celebrate our consciousness yeah
hey
alright i like a merry go round but
i ain’t merry i’m down
cuz i see whole sale violence
packaged up and polished
astonishing who’s admonished
when poverty is our promise
back down
they feed our souls with l~st and hoes
we won’t even discuss these woes
we chose to candy coat i won’t
back down
ya can’t have it both ways
drug dealer lavish plus saved
classy and savage is what they had did
to us when we were slaves
no way
consciousness protects me
you can’t say you’re woke when you don’t know the recipe
get down
yeah back down baby
can’t talk about jews or g~ys as these people you be slaying
back down
why ain’t the mainstream afraid of you
that says it all they play to you
you play to them
you’re both involved
so all back down
don’t be no clowns
we’re ancient we’re profound original be proud
hey
back down
things should not be the same until the freedom bell rangs
thugs are not revolutionaries
there’s a difference they’re not the same
you can quote malcolm x or king
but you’re still not an excellent king
until you execute excellent things
in your new life to your old life
back down
i’m problem solving, i’m evolving
my old self ain’t coming around
but now days i’m coming around to spend time with my child
pow
here’s my check i’m out
i regret being foul
you’re respect for me will come around
but until then i
back down
you critics get a smack down
who are you to tell me, speech
what’s not or is a hot track now
back down
when i was young and there was elders around i would have sat down
now you pasty cats got a playlist, thinking you running rap now
back down
we did shows with tribe and wu tang, p.e. and fugues and gang starr
we go live when we sang
30 years or more
worldwide tours
you ain’t thought before
back down
uh, i thought of that before
i thought of that before but you don’t honor it no more
back down
respect for the past is something you deeply lack now
and i ain’t bitter either, i’ve had mad success
this ain’t lashing out
i’m giving wisdom cuz the system will stop giving rations out
and you will be poor like you were before taking that faster route
the disaster route
who’s the masters now
we’re the masters now
honor the crown or
back down
