Everlast - Get Down Lyrics






Get down, get down, get down [X4]

I see everybody rockin' the same old style
And everyone's sportin' the same profile
And all of y'all wearin' the same name brands
I hear everybody jackin' these played out jams
I won't reach for no gun, punk, I use my hands
I rock mikes and roll bikes
I cross foreign landsI made my bones out in zones
Where the twilight be
And every time I touch a micI
t's Fright Night Part Three
For every MC that wanna test and try
In your custom made wears
Thinkin' you too fly
Makin' up in gold chains
What you're lackin' for brains
It's time to call your ma, Duke
Scoop up your remains
And finally lay to rest all the shit you stressed
Of boastin' and braggin' about the toes you taggin'
I'm knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
While every rapper that you simmed
Is pimped like a whore
You see your talk is eighteen
Three quarters past four
When your doctor slaps my assH
ear the lion roar
The record sales soared
And the world got toured
You say what happened to my band
I say I just got bored
Now they call me Whitey Ford
And I say praise the Lord
Find me breakin' up your crews
Catch me singin' the blues
Strummin' and pickin' like I'm BB King
It's Abdul Rakim
Now watch me do my thing

[CHORUS]
Down down, you go
Down down, so low
Down down, till you hit the floor
Keep fallin' down, till you can't get down no more

You go point blank range
With the scope he's knockin'
The Psycho might change
But there ain't no stoppin'
The moon's on the rise
When the sun start droppin'
And y'all need to quit the bullshit you poppin'
'Cause I've been hip hoppin' since BDP
Rock the P it's free
It's Abdul Rakim
And when referring to me
You best respect the name
Make a quick double take
And double check your game
'Cause you about to get dissed
I'm checkin' my list
When I check it over twice
It's like rollin' the dice
I hit four-five-six I'm all up in your mix
I rock good from Hollywood
To the City of Bricks
And all these fake cats scream they're keepin' it real
While you're makin' your deal
We'll be breakin' the seal
You be breakin' your vows
Like people worshippin' cows
And then I hit ya with the who's, what's, where's and how's
Like Vinny Barbarino
Matt Gachino
I'm with my man Rino
With the Brooklyn Lordz
Crashin' the boards with my soul in a hole
I take it back to the future
From the days of old
I'm too cold to hold
Too hot not to burn ya
Don't stick your nose in business that don't concern ya
Might have to trip
And flip like Ike Turner
You too old for schoolin', boy, when I'm gonna learn ya

[CHORUS]

Everlast Get Down Comments
  1. M.... F....

    Best part is 2:38

  2. C.... R....

    Hardest song if heard in late 90's. It sounded off a swag on a whole instrumentalist platform. Wycliffe did it as well. But for a white boy to execute it with street cred was unfathomable.

  3. C.... M....

    Still have the scar below my left cheek from this tour stop's concert in Montreal in early 1999. It hides there as a 'dimple'.

  4. J.... B....

    I won't reach for no gun punk, I use my hands.

  10. R.... M....

    Dam broski

  11. G.... W....

    This song isn't the best on the album, but it represents a strong message just like almost every other song in the album. This album does a better representation of the Gospel than a whole Sunday in church.

    G.... W....

    What exactly is the message? Can’t figure it out

  12. D.... V....

    Gold days of hiphop !!!!!!! Never forget these days please release in vinyl again 🙏🙏😊

    1998!!!

    W.... S....

    That was a good year.

  21. S.... B....

    I'm happy there's a good quality version of this... It's kinda dark like the rest of the album but every song has inspiration in it's own way

  29. T.... B....

    you too old for school, but Boy, I'm a gonna learn ya

  30. Z.... S....

    This is my favorite song from White Ford Sings the Blues. For some reason it's not on Spotify although the rest of the album is.

    Z.... S....

    Not on Google play or itunes either damb

    Z.... S....

    for real what’s up with that I love this song

    Z.... S....

    Yea I was hoping it would be, it’s on the CD so I thought it would be on there too

    Z.... S....

    I couldn't find it on Spotify or Amazon Music either, I started to wonder if the universe was messing with my memories lol. I remember when I was 20, I bought this CD as soon as it came out in '98. I heard this track after what it's like, and it became my favorite on the album. Anyway, kinda weird that the other tracks online but not this one? Glad there's other peeps who remember, and that I wasn't just imagining this song. 😁

    Z.... S....

    Too subversive, "making fun" of sheep who sport the same profile. Thinking outside the box can be dangerous for the great "They"
