Esham Dyin To Be Down Lyrics

Way back in the day,in 1987
People used to say I wouldn't make it to heaven
1987 was the year of the trick
m____fuckas talkin s___ cause they was illegit
I used to hang out at the park and kick it with the fellas
Behind my back they talkin s___ just because their jealous
n____s used to diss me sayin I was a sucka
But that girl you all in love with....I f___ed her
n____ be dissin me but he can't see
He takin care of a b____ who baby look like me
But I can't tell him nothin,he'll think that I'm jealous
I got more b____es holdin on my d___ than Perry Ellis
n____ didn't know what I was all about
I got cold dissed when I was down and out
Before you called me a sucka and now you wanna be down
When I was broke you wasn't comin around
Now people give me my props all over town
But n____s like you still dyin to be down
[chorus]
Dyin to be down means simply this
You don't jock a n____ that you already dissed
And when you start jockin him then he's knowin
You're nothin but a sucka punk a__ hoe and
A p____ a__ n____ jumpin on the bandwagon
You'll get kicked in your a__ like the last dragon
D-y-i-n-g to be d-o-w-n my friend
No way that we could ever be cool
I'm takin all punk a__ n____s to school
But, school is out and there's no doubt in my mind
You wouldn't set me up or drop a dime
Once a punk a__ n____ always one
And you been a punk a__ n____ in more ways than one
Except you keep comin around cuz n____s like you ain't down
You're dyin to be down
[chorus]
How can I be down is all I hear
But f___ Esham was the slogan last year
Now you got a new one,thinkin you gon' do one
Go put a d___ in your booty and screw one
Cause you can't screw me
I don't care if you boo me
But in my face I won't allow you to do me
To be down or not to be down is the question
You'll never be down so don't come around
Dreamin to be down
Schemin to be down
Like Captain Kirk I'll be beamin your black a__ down
Ain't no ifs,ands or buts or maybes
You're like a dog with rabies who tried to play me
But you can't fade me so how that sound
You're just another punk n____...dyin to be down
