All The Way Down
Smooth T Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a live nigga standing out like a rash
A live nigga keep cash in a stash
What's the eggs without the corn beef hash?
Blowing up like Sarah Dash

Jerkin up the neck known to cause whiplash
Dance and get down with me
Peep the steelo the strategy
What killed the cat's curiosity?

You better believe that I be freaking
Pull my ? the M be leaking
Same MC who wreck shop at the Beacon
Uptown lingo is what I'm speaking
So put your pedal to the metal

And feet to the ground
And peep this uptown sound
It makes no sense in standing around
Hey, it makes no sense just standing around

Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around

Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around

I'm chilling with Nice and Smooth with my Phat Farm outfit
They say what's up Rick what's up good to see you out kid
Where the party at, asking and relaxing
And pop a couple of Moe's listening to some fat tracks with them

Being a kid locked, want to check the the scene and shit
Zulu Nation having something tonight at the arena Greg
Lets get drunk and roll, said they like the sound of it
Rolled a couple of blunts, but Ruler wasn't down with it
? want to go and hit something

Be off work release even if you get caught with weed in yo system
Be up north quick, since we all down to roll
Went to the club having the up most amount of fun
Should've heard them groupies scream for
Wonder why this brother looking at me all mean for
Ignored it, kept swapping til my neck hurt
Then Greg Nice and Smooth did this very same record called

Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around

Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around

Happy birthday, what's the word say
To papa smurf, I cover the globe like earth day
Rollin with G and the Rickster
Flavor full boogie down mixture

We came back to attack with the Ruler
You can't get no cooler
On our way to the bank
Now do the Patty Duke and then do the Spank

Come from the heart things spark
And keep your eyes glued to the top of the chart
Oh shit, its the man with the fronts and the jewels
The kids with the blunts and the tools
Sewing up shop like needles
Selling more record than the Beetles
So don't be astound
And makes no sense in standing around

Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around

Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down




Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Smooth T's song "All The Way Down" encompass various themes such as confidence, partying, hip hop culture, and success.


In the first verse, Smooth T asserts his presence and status as a "live nigga," someone who stands out and garners attention. He mentions keeping cash stashed away and highlights the importance of having all the necessary elements for a complete experience, comparing it to having eggs and corn beef hash together. The line "blowing up like Sarah Dash" refers to him gaining popularity and becoming successful, just as Sarah Dash, a singer, became well-known.


The second verse emphasizes Smooth T's ability to captivate and entertain with his music. He references causing whiplash with his neck jerking moves, inviting listeners to dance and get down with him. He reveals his unique style and strategy, and questions what curiosity killed the cat, implying that his music should be explored without fear.


The chorus encourages everyone to participate and enjoy the party atmosphere. Smooth T urges people to put their energy into action and dance, making it clear that there is no point in simply standing around. The repetitive nature of the chorus reinforces the call to let loose and have fun.


In the final verse, Smooth T describes being in the company of Nice and Smooth, fellow artists, and enjoying himself in his fashionable Phat Farm outfit. He shares a conversation about finding a party to attend and having a good time, mentioning the Zulu Nation's event. The reference to Ruler not wanting to partake in rolling blunts suggests a difference in preferences or lifestyles among friends.


As the song continues, Smooth T reminisces about a wild night out and the excitement generated by the music they were playing. He brushes off the negative attention he receives from someone looking at him meanly. The verse ends by referencing Greg Nice and Smooth's previous hit record, showing admiration for their work.


The bridge of the song offers birthday wishes and references papa smurf, symbolizing a larger-than-life, influential figure. Smooth T asserts his global appeal and describes his collaboration with G (possibly referring to Greg Nice) and the "Rickster" (possibly referring to Rick Rubin), highlighting the fusion of different sounds and genres in their music. They celebrate their success and edge in the industry, selling more records than the Beatles, and encourage others to stay focused and driven. The song concludes by reiterating the need to actively participate and engage in life rather than standing around idly.
