Get Down Songtext
von Lil Wayne

Weezy
What up, ′Pac? What up, 'Pac?
What they heard is what they need to know
They sayin′ C-A-R-T-E-R, yeah
They sayin' C-A-R-T-E-R, yeah
And we the motherfuckin' C-A-R-T-E-R, yeah
But believe it, daddy, ain′t no lookin′ back from this
This ain't no new Jay shit, nigga

And that′s the only way we get down
'Cause that′s the only way we was taught
And everything we got, we bought
And real niggas still shine in the dark
And that's the only way we get down
And that′s the only way we was taught
And everything we got, we bought
And real niggas still shine in the dark
'Cause that's the only way we get down


I down-down a brother
We ain′t cut from the same cloth, you Downy soft
Bullets separate your body compound, a buster
I′ma find you if you're hidin′, I'm a bounty hunter
In your home puttin′ dick all down your woman
You come home, we in the bedroom countin' money
I bring her home and I fuck her on a thousand hundreds
Then I shoot the nasty bitch in her mouth for nothin′
I say, "Birdman, Birdman, what's good today?"
We ain't never let them bitches take our food away
And we recognize real and got a rude awakenin′
And woke up together and our life was better
I′m the Cash Money son, I live a life of cheddar
Not a rat, though, hat low, Nikes is leather
Little Mall twist too, get my life together
Your bitch meet me at the bar and we knife together, nigga

And that's the only way we get down
′Cause that's the only way we was taught
And everything we got, we bought
And real niggas still shine in the dark
And that′s the only way we get down
And that's the only way we was taught
And everything we got, we bought
And real niggas still shine in the dark
′Cause that's the only way we get down


Flow my way like Sherman Klump
I got a hold of my estate like Donald Trump
And I aim kinda straight when it's time to pump
I bring the pump when it′s time to pump
It′s wrapped around my waist like a cummerbund
Don't make a nigga pump, -gunshots-, fuck you up
I cum in that new thing she threw up
Now your bitch-ass nigga gotta clean your shoe up
I′m rich as fuck and I never blew up
Business mug, gotta get my loot up
Bet your bitch get fucked if I ever met her
Bet your ditch get dug if you ever step up
One by one, I push 'em down
Fat pussy, fat head, make a pussy sound
Hard head, soft ass, make her gushy ground
I′m straight from a crooked town, like that, nigga

And that's the only way we get down
′Cause that's the only way we was taught
And everything we got, we bought
And real niggas still shine in the dark
And that's the only way we get down
And that′s the only way we was taught
And everything we got, we bought
And real niggas still shine in the dark
′Cause that's the only way we get down

I give my arms and my legs to the game, I′m ahead of the game
I dead any man if he said anything
But it's cool as long as a nigga paid when he came
And I′m a fool with the flame and the K
Cut it just a little bit, but a drain stay the same, yeah
Young Wayne and the pain and the stain
Still remain on my chest where the four made a mess, yes
I'm still here in the flesh
Twenty-one-year-old legend, I′ma live way after my death
I sacrifice whatever that's left
I give y'all the last of my breath like -exhales
Write it down, take a picture, record a copy
Press pause, only way you stop me, nigga
I′ma get mine and make you knock me
Spit wine in your face if you watch me, nigga

And that′s the only way we get down
'Cause that′s the only way we was taught
And everything we got, we bought
And real niggas still shine in the dark
And that's the only way we get down
And that′s the only way we was taught
And everything we got, we bought
And real niggas still shine in the dark
'Cause that′s the only way we get down

And that's the only way we gettin' down
Cash Money, CMB, man
You already know
We here, never left
See me if you got a problem, boy
I′m at home all day, man
It′s not a game
Stunna, what's really good with him?
We ain′t never let 'em take our food away
I got it, yeah
Fresh and nasty on this one, dawg
Ugh
Guess what, this is the Carter
