Intro: Stay Down

LaRon Louis James, Cameron Giles, Jim Jones, Sean Thomas, Joe Lawrence

I was, I was in Atlanta with 40 and I was like
Man, just make me some Dipset, Heatmakerz shit
Heatmakerz, crack music

Uh huh
We strike again
Harlem, what's up?

I put on for my hood when they wanted to off me (fact)
Lawyers on retainers, man
Them fuckers was costly
Put it in the bag
What the fuck could it cost me? (fuck that)
In the hood with all my jewels
Who the fuck could extort me? (skrt skrt)
Never said nothing when they cuffed and they caught me (shh)
Cop, too when poppy had a couple to toss me (ghetto gang)
The pump'll make 'em Jump
When the fuckers Kriss Kross me (hear that?)
A savage wit' them hoes once I'm fuckin' her, all key
The engine in the Porsche like they stuff it with horses (skrt skrt)
Durant scuffed my kicks outta bounds on the floor seats (oh shit)
Shit, outta bounds on the floor seats
And, yeah, I went to school
What the fuck did it taught me? (loco)
Man, I'm watching all you grown men dancing to Kiki (word)
Shit, up in Harlem we was dancin' on them Kiki's (fact)
Sixty eight and I owe you one
You gon' pay me that fee fee (uh huh)
If this is the NBA, then you play in the D League, fucker

It was none of they business, I had inches but they take yards (take yards)
I got niggas in the jails to the graveyard (graveyard)
If the judge give the bail, we gon' straight ball (straight ball)
If Papi my amigo, we gon' take off (take off)
Told me, stay chill, stay down and stay loyal (loyal)
'Cause in this game, these niggas don't have no morals (no morals)
Niggas stay down, stay trill and stay loyal (stay loyal)
'Cause in this game these niggas don't have no morals (no morals)
Niggas stay trill (stay trill, stay trill)

What'chu know about bustin' moves in the freezing cold?
Turning down sales just to keep it whole
Why break it down when my connect want me to flip the load?
That's like settling for silver when you getting gold
Small money on the breakdown
Believe it though
I'm more concerned with the risk
I'm tryna keep it low
Peter pay Paul, if not
They getting Peter rolled
Young Rondo with the give and go
I was always thinking upper echelon
They was thinking Nino Brown
I'm thinking Pablo Escobar
No disputing what the truth is
They was more Nicky Barnes
I was more Frank Lucas
They was thinking like Bishop
I was thinking like Q on the roof
Never cared about the Juice
Only cared about the points and the score
So every time I shoot
It's like swoosh (swoosh, swoosh)

It was none of they business, I had inches but they take yards (take yards)
I got niggas in the jails to the graveyard (graveyard)
If the judge give the bail, we gon' straight ball (straight ball)
If Papi my amigo, we gon' take off (take off)
Told me, stay chill, stay down and stay loyal (loyal)
'Cause in this game, these niggas don't have no morals (no morals)
Niggas stay down, stay trill and stay loyal (stay loyal)
'Cause in this game these niggas don't have no morals (no morals)
Niggas stay trill (stay trill, stay trill)

Dame Dash my man, he shootin' then I'm buckin' with him
They shootin' at us?
Shit, I'm ducking with him (yo, look out!)
But I had to be firm and tell 'em
That Kanye only fuck wit'chu when on one else is fuckin' with him
He told me he was bipolar (what, nigga?)
I looked and said, "Bipolar?"
Don't be ridiculous, he wasn't in the mix with us (no)
Bricks from Hamilton Terrace
He didn't take the risk with us (not at all)
Ain't boil a coffee pot, ain't open the barber shop
Where we sold hydro at
Where we pissed off the cops
The ones in the Taurus, nigga, he a tourist
Uncle Tom nigga know nothing 'bout this chorus

It was none of they business, I had inches but they take yards (take yards)
I got niggas in the jails to the graveyard (graveyard)
If the judge give the bail, we gon' straight ball (straight ball)
If Papi my amigo, we gon' take off (take off)
Told me, stay chill, stay down and stay loyal (loyal)
'Cause in this game, these niggas don't have no morals (no morals)
Niggas stay down, stay trill and stay loyal (stay loyal)
'Cause in this game these niggas don't have no morals (no morals)
Niggas stay trill (stay trill, stay trill)
