Down & Out
Cam'ron feat. Syleena Johnson Lyrics

Ayo street mergers I legislated
I made the rules on the streets

The nerve I never hated
I always had the courage to do what I wanted

On murders pre-meditated
I thought about committing murder before I did it

Absurd! I hesitated
It's crazy, but I still had second thoughts

Observe: cock and spray
Watch as I shoot my gun

Hit you from a block away
I can shoot from far away

Drinking sake on a Suzuki we in Osaka Bay
I'm in Japan, drinking sake on a Suzuki in the bay

Playing soccer, stupid, stay in a sucker's place
Playing soccer is for fools, stick to your lane

Pluck ya ace, take ya girl, fuck her face
I'll steal your girl and have sex with her

She dealing with Killa so you love her taste
She's with me because she loves me

She swallowing Killa cause she love the taste
She's performing oral sex on me because she enjoys it

I got brought up with crooking
I was raised around criminal activity

Kitchen orders that I'm cooking
I'm cooking drugs in the kitchen

But got caught up with the jooks you woulda thought I was from Brooklyn
I got caught up in a robbery and people thought I was from Brooklyn

It gets boring just looking
It's mundane just watching

Did like Bill Cosby, pouring in the pudding
I'm like Bill Cosby, drugging women's food and drinks

Now the dashboard is wooden from a hard-tangled grammar
My car dashboard is made of wood, a reference to my metaphorical 'hard-tangled' rhymes

Interior, inferior, star-spangled banner
The interior is substandard, like a poorly made American flag

Car game bananas
My car game is crazy

My man Santana
My friend Santana

Guns everywhere, like the car came with hammers
I carry guns everywhere like they came with the car

They trying to say he (down, down)
They are trying to say he's a failure

I hear niggas saying he (down, but not out)
I hear people say he's down, but he's not completely finished

But our flow is the truest
Our music is authentic

The games in the nooses
The industry has us trapped

Our girls is the models
Our women are beautiful

They coochies the juiciest
Their vaginas are very pleasurable

I treat bitches straight up, like Simon Says
I tell women what to do and they do it like the game Simon says

Open vagina: put ya legs behind ya head
I have sex with women and they put their legs behind their heads

Cop me Air Ones, hon, lime and red
Buy me a pair of Air Force Ones in lime green and red

You got pets? Me too: mine are dead
You have pets? So do I, but mine are dead

Fox, minks, gators that's necessary
I wear fur coats made from fox, mink, and alligator because it's essential

Accessories, my closet's a 'Pet Sematary'
I have so many accessories in my closet, it's like a graveyard

I get approached by animal activists
People who advocate for animal rights confront me about my fur coats

I live in a zoo
My life is chaotic, like living in a zoo

I run scandals with savages
I engage in corrupt activities with dangerous people

All my niggas get together to gather loot
My friends and I come together to make money

Bodyguard for what? Dog, I'd rather shoot
Why do I need a bodyguard when I can just shoot someone myself?

I go to war, old Timbs, battered boots
I'm ready to fight, wearing old Timberland boots

Hand grenade, goggles and a parachute
I'm prepared for battle with a grenade, goggles, and a parachute

Ya'll don't even know the name of my flip
You don't know the slang term I'm using, and it's not 'Harlem Shake'

It was 'Touch Me, Tease Me' when Case was the shit
The slang term I'm using is from the song 'Touch Me, Tease Me' by Case

You don't know bout the cases I get:
You don't know about the legal problems I face

Court case, briefcase, suitcase, cases of Cris
I have legal problems, a briefcase full of money, a suitcase full of drugs, and cases of Cristal champagne

Ayo you dealing with some sure shit
You're dealing with someone who's confident and reliable

My bitches pure thick
The women I'm with are very curvy

Play razor tag, slice ya face, you're it!
I cut people with razor blades for fun, and now they're 'it'

It's I who come by drive-thru
I'm the one who comes through quickly

Gator-toed Mauri, three quarters, sky blue
I'm wearing sky blue Mauri shoes with alligator toes and a three-quarter length coat

Look at mami: eyes blue, 5'2''
Look at that woman, she has blue eyes and is 5'2'' tall

I approached her 'Hi boo, how you?
I said to her, 'Hello love, how are you?'

Pony skin Louis? Oh, you fly too
You have a pony skin Louis Vuitton purse? You're fashionable like me

You a stewardess? Good ma, I fly too
You're a flight attendant? Me too, we have something in common

Now a nigga got baking to bake
I have drugs to cook

Harlem Shake? Nah, I'm in Harlem shaking awake
I'm not dancing the Harlem Shake, I'm in Harlem waking people up

Shaking to bake, shaking the Jakes
I'm nervous about getting caught, so I'm shaking while I cook drugs and watching out for the police

Kill you, shoot the funeral up and Harlem Shake at your wake
I'll kill you, and at your funeral I'll shoot up the place and then dance the Harlem Shake

Just ya picture though, you still taped in a lake
I'll only kill you in a photograph, but you'll still end up drowned in the lake

I'm laughing; you couldn't wait to escape
I'm laughing at you because you wanted to get out of this situation so badly

For anyone who owed the dough, I had to load the fo
If someone owed me money, I had to load my gun

I hoped a nigga heard when I said 'I told you so'
I hope the person who owes me money heard me say 'I told you so'

Yeah, they say he (down, down)
People are saying he's not successful

Yeah, they say he (down, but not out)
But they also say he's not completely finished

'Cause I’m back on my grind
I'm back to making music and working hard

Money back on my mind
I'm focused on making money

Ye' and Killa Cam', the world is mine
Kanye West and I are taking over the world
