lirik lagu t. karras - the down low
[intro]
when the sun’s down
that’s when the fun begins…
so get up there…
and play your part
[verse 1]
i’m a lover for the kind of things after dark
even though the danger is absurdly stark
i love the hue of the orange street lights
even though there are people who would put up a fight
i love to drink one beer then smoke lots of weed
it’s the kind of formula that helps me succeed
then i get on the dance floor and feel the vibe
i don’t have a car, public transport is my ride
the pulse of the beat flows within me
and i don’t take no hostility
to paraphrase kendrick, this sh-t ain’t free
you gotta give me respect or else i ain’t friendly
this the kind of stuff that happens on the down low
you’ll never know where the night will go
so don’t expect anything or else you’re f-cked
cause in the nighttime, things get real tough
[chorus]
when the sun’s down, we’re going straight to the down low
when the sun’s down, we’re going straight to the down low
when the sun’s down, we’re going straight to the down low
when the sun’s down, we’re going straight to the down low
[verse 2]
i eat lots of food like the fat boys do
i ain’t been to jail but i’m one hundred percent cool
just doing the moves, that you never expect
like michael jackson in his prime, they’re so complex
i never got in trouble, even though i’m a bad boy
the suburbanite image, it’s all a big ploy
i’ve been living ghetto since day one
and i don’t feel the need to ever own a gun
i’m not givin’ a d-mn, i’m like jack fm
doing what i want until the world ends
never likin’ a cop cause they tazed me way back when
they also lied about it, why should i be their friend?
you may think i’m fakin’ it, but i’m not
you think i would disrespect the entire block?
i got nothing but love for the down low
all the others are robotic, i got nothing but soul
[chorus]
when the sun’s down, we’re going straight to the down low
when the sun’s down, we’re going straight to the down low
when the sun’s down, we’re going straight to the down low
when the sun’s down, we’re going straight to the down low
[verse 3]
it’s hard… being a part of the down low…
you can’t pretend, you gotta know…
about every situation that could go down
one moment it’s fine and the next, ka-plow
then it all goes to sh-t and then your f-cked
next thing you know you’ve lost all your bucks
and now you’re on the run just hoping you escape
because you had the dumb idea to rob a bank
i did a lot of dumb sh-t when i was young
i was just like you, couldn’t make a pun
but then i smartened up with knowledge so that i could survive
it’s an amazing wonder that i’m still alive
cause i’m still doing lots of dumb sh-t
i been told myself that n0body’s perfect
especially when i am crippled inside of the brain
i’m always struggling, still learning the game
