Do It
Shaggy 2 Dope Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got the hurt
What the hurt
Got the juice
Let's see you do it
(Chorus)
Come on just do it
Could you, would you
Walk to the tracks
With the thought you won't be back
You left your note don't contemplate
And stop the train with your face
Could you, would you
Steal a ride
Collect your homies Southwest side
Pull up storefront for a job
Your boy got shot, what went wrong?
Could you, would you
See a bitch
And know for a fact you ain't get shit (Trick)
Beat that ass I'll say it's Nate
Now you a blues, chillin up state
Could you, would you
Clutch a knife
And randomly take someone's life
Grab the neck and cut right through it
Come on big man here's your knife
Do it!
(Chorus)
Come on just do it (x5)
Would you, could you
Walk behind
Some old lady deaf and blind
Push her down and snatch her shit
Not even knowing that she raised her grandkids
Would you, could you
Get some pills
Valium, Percocet, Nyquils
Take them all when you're alone
Knowing damn well someone's coming home
Would you, could you
Cop a magnum
Go to school with one intention
Everybody freeze, on your knees, hold it
Dumb motherfucker, forgot to load it
Would you, could you
Get a blade
Feel all bad cause you got a little played
Got a beef? Many blew it
Here's your wrist and blade
Now do it!
(Chorus)
Come on just do it (x5)
Do you have the heart?
Do you have the soul?
When it boils down to it
Are you able to do it?
Will you have a conscience?
Will you live in fear?
When it boils down to it
Are you able to do it?
Come on just do it (x10)
The song "Do It" by Shaggy 2 Dope is a provocative and controversial exploration of human nature, specifically the willingness to engage in violent and criminal behavior. The first verse sets up the theme with the lines "Got the hurt, What the hurt, Got the juice, Let's see you do it," suggesting that the singer is challenging the listener to prove their bravery and toughness by performing dangerous or illegal acts.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Come on just do it" like a mantra, urging the listener to take action and follow through on their desires, no matter how depraved or immoral. The subsequent verses present a series of increasingly extreme scenarios in which the listener is asked to imagine themselves committing violent acts, from suicide to theft to murder.
Overall, the song seems to be asking whether people are truly capable of acting on their darkest impulses, and whether they should be judged for even thinking about such things. It's a disturbing and thought-provoking message that forces listeners to confront uncomfortable truths about human behavior.

Arguably one of shaggys best songs. It really emphasizes the difference between him and j.
If you need it spelled out, shaggs internalized. Violent J expressed his emotions THROUGH music.
I've been down since riddlebox. You can definitely see the impact over time. It does seem like they both hint at having no father as well.
It makes me grateful that I had 2 parents, even though I only got to see the other.. nvm.. sometimes life sucks. You get past it one way or another. Not "over" it, but you cope with it.
Son Of Abraham
Do you have the heart?
Do you have the soul?
When it boils down to it...
Are you able...
To DO IT?!?
