It's Goin' Down Songtext
von Ralph Tresvant

You gotta get over
′Cause it's goin′ down
Before we go under
'Cause it's goin′ down
You gotta get over
′Cause it's goin′ down
Before we go under
'Cause it′s goin' down


Stand back, punk, it′s deadly
I'm packin' a strap in the back so no suckers can get ahead of me
Rookies see, so rookies do
Claimin′ the fame with no pain
Step aside, a vet′s rollin' through
I′m the brother that keeps you cautious
'Cause I tell the girls of the world to leave a man who′s obnoxious
Here's another message I′m sendin'
The talent of the Rizzle arsenal is never endin'
Don′t ever underestimate the power of the mind
Especially when the power that you talkin′ 'bout is mine
So suckers make way because the Rizzle ship has landed
And just like I planned it, clown
Huh, it′s goin' down

You gotta get over
′Cause it's goin′ down (Yeah)
Before we go under
('Cause it's goin′ down, down, down, down)
′Cause it's goin′ down (Hey, hey)
You gotta get over
'Cause it′s goin' down (Ooh)
Before we go under (Ooh, ooh)
′Cause it's goin' down (It′s goin′ down, it's goin′ down, oh yeah)
You gotta get over
'Cause it′s goin' down
Before we go under (Come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on and do)
′Cause it's goin' down (Yo, Big, show ′em what time it is)


You can feel a sucker′s flowin'
He knows where it′s been, where it's at
But he don′t know where it's goin′
That's why I hate it when a rookie letterman
With one jam thinks he's a better man than a veteran
Look around, you see my fans in pairs
And tears from my dears
I′ve been shootin′ at 'em for ten years
Many brothers have been shifted
Some are uplifted because of the man who′s been gifted
So if you ain't aboard the set yet, don′t you forget
Yo, you can still buy the record
Because the Rizzle ship has landed
Get ready for the funky sound, kid
'Cause it′s goin' down (Uh)

You gotta get over
'Cause it′s goin′ down (Alright)
Before we go under
(It's goin′ down, down, down, down)
'Cause it′s goin' down (Oh yeah)
You gotta get over
′Cause it's goin' down (Ooh)
Before we go under
(Yo, it′s goin′ down, down, down, down)
'Cause it′s goin' down (It′s goin' down)
You gotta get over
′Cause it's goin' down (Ooh)
Before we go under (Oh yeah, uh)
′Cause it′s goin' down (Oh, break it on down)

Yeah, uh, can you feel it, baby?
Rated R, gettin′ nasty, huh?
Yeah, let me see you shake it
Spray 'em
You gotta get over (Uh)
Before we go under (Mm, mm, mm, oh, uh)
Shake ′em up, baby
Rated R, gettin' nasty
You gotta get over (Yeah)
Before we go under (Come on, get it)
Sexy, sexy, uh, yeah
Come on, get it, uh
Spray ′em

You gotta get over
'Cause it's goin′ down (Come on)
Before we go under
(′Cause it's goin′ down, down, down, down)
'Cause it′s goin' down (Ooh)
You gotta get over
′Cause it's goin' down
Before we go under
(′Cause it′s goin' down, down, down, down)
′Cause it's goin′ down (Ooh, come on)
You gotta get over (Yeah)
'Cause it′s goin' down
Before we go under
(The game go under, I said right)
'Cause it′s goin′ down (Hey, yeah, oh)
'Cause it′s goin' down

Yo, so catch up on that hoe, get her ready to go
′Cause it's goin′ down
Yo, so catch up on that hoe, yo, get that boy to the gate, huh
I'm ready to bring his ass home (Come on)
Yeah (Yeah, boy)
I tried to tell ya, fool (Come on, come on)
Rated R, get ready, kid, 'cause it′s goin′ down (Turn it off, boy)

You gotta get over
'Cause it′s goin' down
Before we go under (Come on)
′Cause it's goin′ down (Oh yeah, ooh, it's a new millennium)
You gotta get over
(Here we go, yo, here we go, yo)
Before we go under
(Here we go, yo, here we go, yo)
(Where's my boy? Here we go, let′s make some noise)
