Get Down
lil wayne Lyrics

What up pop, what up pop.
We are greeting each other with respect, acknowledging our connection as father and son

Fuck what they heard it's what they need to know nigga
We shouldn't care about rumors, but focus on the truth and spread it widely

Ya feel me, hey nigga we done built this.
Do you understand what I'm saying? We've created this legacy together.

Shit from the ground up now homie
We built everything from the bottom up, putting in hard work and dedication.

Believe that daddy, it ain't no looking back from here, we too strong
Trust me, we won't go backwards from here. We are unstoppable.

And that's the only way we get down (we get down)
Our way of life is unwavering and we won't change for anyone.

Cause that's the only way we was taught (we was taught)
Our upbringing and culture influenced us to live by these values.

And everything we got we bought (we bought)
We worked hard and earned everything we have, from material possessions to our reputation.

And real niggas still shine in the dark (still shine in the dark, yeah)
Genuine and honest people can still succeed and stand out in tough situations.

I down down a brother
I disrespect someone who isn't on my level or who disagrees with me.

We ain't cut from the same cloth you Downy soft
We are fundamentally different and I see you as weak and inferior to me.

Bullets separate ya body compound a buster
If you oppose us, we will harm you physically and even kill you.

I'm a find ya if ya hiding I'm a bounty hunter
If you try to evade us or hide, I'll search for you tirelessly and bring you to justice.

In ya home putting dick all down ya woman
I'll have sex with your partner in your own home, a sign of disrespect and dominance over you.

You come home we in the bedroom counting money
Even in your own home, we will flaunt our wealth and success in your face.

I bring her home and I fuck her on a thousand hundreds
I'll have sex with her on a bed of money, showing off my prosperity and ignoring her worth.

Then I shoot the nasty bitch in the mouth for nothing
I disrespect her again by hurting her in a violent way, without any provocation.

I say Birdman Birdman what's good today
I'm addressing my business partner and asking how he's doing.

We ain't never let them niggas take our food away
We haven't and won't let other people deprive us of our success or money.

And we recognize real and got a rude awakening
We understand who the genuine and trustworthy people are, and have learned from negative experiences.

And woke up together and our life was better
We helped each other through tough times and our life has become more fulfilling as a result.

I'm the Cash Money son I live a life of cheddar
As a member of Cash Money Records, I live a life of wealth and prosperity.

Not a rat though hat low Nike's is leather
I'm not a snitch, but I still dress in luxurious clothing.

Lil' maw twist two get my life together
I roll marijuana to relieve stress and gain perspective on my life.

Ya bitch meet me at the bar and we knife together, cut!
Your partner and I will have sex and disrespect you further.

Throw my weight like Sherman Klump
I throw my weight around like the fat and clumsy character from the movie 'The Nutty Professor.'

I gotta hold up my estate like Donald Trump
Like the wealthy businessman and politician, I must protect and maintain my wealth and power.

And I aim kinda straight when it's time to pump
When I shoot my gun, I aim accurately and with intent.

I bring the pump when it's time to pump
I am always ready for conflict and violence, with a firearm in my possession.

Wrapped around my waist like a cumber bun
The gun is held tightly against my body and looks like a cummerbund, a type of formal wear.

Don't make a nigga pump, you up!
Don't provoke me or I'll hurt you.

I come in that new thing, she threw up
I arrived in a new car and it made someone vomit due to its impressive nature.

Now yo' bitch ass gotta clean yo' shoe up
Your partner must clean up the mess they made, like a dog owner cleaning up after their pet.

I'm rich as fuck and I never blew up
I am very wealthy but haven't achieved my full potential yet.

Business mug, gotta get my loot up
I am focused on making more money and growing my business.

Bet ya bitch get fucked if I ever met her
If I meet your partner, I will have sex with them.

Bet ya ditch get dug you ever step up
If you oppose us, we will physically harm you in a violent way.

One by one I push 'em down, fat bullet, fat head make a pussy sound
I am violent and forceful, making people fall one by one, with the sound of a bullet causing fear and panic.

Hard head soft ass make a gushy ground
If you're stubborn, I'll hit you hard and your body will hit the ground with a soft and squishy sound.

I'm straight from a crooked town
I come from a place that's dishonest and corrupt, but I am successful despite that.

I give my arms and my legs to the game I'm ahead of the game
I am willing to sacrifice everything for my career and my success, and I am already successful compared to others.

I dead any mane if he said anything
I will kill anyone who speaks out against me or threatens my success.

But it's cool, as long as nigga paid when he came
If someone pays me, they can say whatever they want and I won't retaliate.

And I'm a fool with the flame and the caine
I am reckless and addicted to drugs and weapons.

Cut it just a little bit but the drain stay the same yeah
I only use a little bit of drugs, but the addiction and negative consequences remain.

Young Wayne and the pain and the stain still remain
I am Lil Wayne, and the negative experiences and consequences of drug use still affect me.

On the chest where the four made a mess yes
I have scars from gunshots on my chest and they remind me of past violence and pain.

I'm still here in the flesh twenty one year old legend
Despite my challenges and experiences, I am still successful and relevant in the music industry.

I'm a live way after my death
My legacy and influence will continue long after I die.

I sacrifice whatever that's left
I will give everything I have left for my career and legacy.

I give y'all the last of my breath like
I'm giving my fans everything I have until my last breath.

Write it down take a picture record a copy
Memorize and document my words and music, so they live on forever.

Press pause only way you stop me fucker
Stopping my music or my legacy is impossible, even if you press 'pause.'

I'm a get mine and make you not me
I'll work hard and achieve success, and you can't do anything to stop me.

Spit wine in ya face if you watch me Bitch!
I'll disrespect you by spitting wine in your face, if you dare to watch me succeed and be envious.

Cash Money C-M-B man
We belong and represent the Cash Money Records label.

You already know we here never left fuck 'em
We've been here for a long time and we're not going anywhere, so anyone who opposes us can 'fuck off.'

See me if you got a problem boy
If you have an issue with us, come face us directly.

I'm at home all day man, it's not a game
I'm not afraid and I'll be at home all day, ready for any challenge.

Stunner, what's really good with 'em
I'm addressing Birdman, my business partner and friend, and asking how he's doing.

Fresh you nasty on this on dog
You did a great job on this song, it is very impressive.

This one, this is the Carter bitch!
This song is part of my album 'Tha Carter,' and it's one of my best.
