get down
M.E.G & N.E.R.A.K. Lyrics

Trying to get up to come down
Striving to achieve success but remaining grounded and humble

Got that playa shit by the pound
Having an abundance of confidence and charisma

The gold with the lacs and the crown
Achieving material wealth and status

Make it where them hoes come around
Attracting attention and admiration from others

Booming like a sub underground
Gaining popularity and recognition in a lesser-known or niche community

The whole city hearin' it's around
Becoming well-known and respected within the local music scene

We all on the get up to come down
Striving for success while remaining true to their roots

We back at it one mo' gain'
Returning to their musical pursuits once again

Cranking my motor, revving my engine
Getting motivated and ready to take action

Chilling the AC til' it's colder than a breeze in Alaska
Creating a cool and comfortable atmosphere for themselves

Sun shine like the winter time just passed us
Experiencing a period of success and prosperity

Watching for laws and jackers
Being cautious and aware of potential threats or obstacles

Cuz', this shit here too clean to be taken
Being confident in their abilities and work

I keep it tucked off in my clothes you never catch me out her bucket naked
Keeping their success and achievements hidden and private

Fresh drawls, them desktop Js for the caskets
Dressing well and stylishly to showcase their success

Pressing up on these bastards that owe me and I gots to have it
Asserting their dominance and demanding what is owed to them

Wake up and cake up 'cause' it's only right
Working hard and making money is the right thing to do

Soon as the sun go down, the freaks come out and they gon' dress in summer tights
Taking advantage of nightlife and attracting attention from others

I'm tryna dig deep, Ginger-ale and Hennessy
Seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their desires

It keep me in the zone, I'm like long til' the clock strike twelve
Maintaining a focused and determined mindset until the job is done

One mo' then I'm out of the front door
Completing one more task before leaving

On a mission like a waffle house cooked for the 24/7
Having a constant drive to achieve success

Man, I'm just trying to get paid
Striving to earn money and achieve financial success

And make it where these mothafuckas hate
Succeeding to the point where others envy and have negative feelings towards them

I got up to come down
Achieving success but staying grounded and humble

This for those playas and those gator belts getting cheese like patty melts
Recognizing and acknowledging the success of other confident individuals

Serving up game like help yo' self
Providing valuable advice and knowledge to others

Refereeing, calling plays on the sidelines
Taking control and directing situations from a position of influence

Super the bowl, diamonds and gold
Attaining high levels of success and wealth

Won a ring like five times
Achieving multiple significant achievements

I remember wanting be that cuz' I seen it
Being inspired by the success and accomplishments of others

Don't ever tell a hoe that you love a hoe if you don't mean it
Being honest and genuine in relationships

Unless it's bout that paper paper, got that from a playa pimp
Being focused on financial success and not getting emotionally attached

They say it's work to p-i, easier to be a simp
Recognizing that it takes effort and dedication to achieve success

Put it in motion, rollercoasting, peep the focus of a go-getter
Taking action and staying determined to achieve goals

If you flip it once and get it, it's fasho fitting
If you can successfully take advantage of an opportunity, it's definitely worth pursuing

If you ain't eating with your squad, you's a hoe nigga
Being loyal and supportive of those who support you

That's from the heart
Speaking sincerely and truthfully

Never pump kool-aid when we on a mission
Not getting distracted or swayed by irrelevant things while pursuing goals

That's 24/7 like a waffle cook in a waffle house kitchen
Having a continuous and relentless drive, like a waffle house kitchen operating around the clock

Man, I'm just trying to get paid
Striving to earn money and achieve financial success

And make it where these mothafuckas hate
Succeeding to the point where others envy and have negative feelings towards them

I got up to come down
Achieving success but staying grounded and humble

Here's a little story that must be told
Introducing a narrative about their experiences

A wild young nigga off on Calverton road
Growing up and exploring life in an adventurous and rebellious manner

I was raised on Kings ridge where there wasn't no rules
Growing up in a place without strict guidelines or restrictions

Robbing niggas for they Starter jackets and shoes
Engaging in criminal activities to obtain valuable items

Yeah, I've done some real things, family full of fiends
Having experienced and been influenced by difficult and challenging situations

Forty ounce of Old English, and new some Newport kings
Partaking in substance abuse and engaging in risky behavior

Pocket full of pieces and 74' Caprisces
Carrying firearms and driving luxury vehicles

Europeans in a crib in Buckhead, thank you Jesus
Living in a luxurious home in an affluent neighborhood

Boy, I'm sweet James Jones when I'm whipping up a ritz
Being skilled and successful in their endeavors, such as cooking

I'm really on my wrist and a super bad bitch
Displaying expensive jewelry and being accompanied by an attractive partner

And you know it's southside, you can tell by the parlor
Being proudly associated with the southern region and its culture

Give it a good look cuz' there'll never be another
Being unique and irreplaceable

Hoes, a hundred spokes, what you expect?
Having a large number of admirers and attention from women

Trust me, money can't buy you that respect
Understanding that respect cannot be bought

Got feel it out of love, and get it from out the mud
Earning respect through hard work and genuine intentions

And it'll come round, or get out the way
Success will come to those who are deserving or step aside for those who are

I'm coming down
Achieving success and recognition
