Lakeview Terrace movie - Shut 'Em Down lyrics
rate me
I testified<br>
My mama cried<br>
Black people died<br>
When the other man lied<br>
See the tv, listen to me double trouble<br>
I overhaul and Im comin<br>
From the lower level<br>
Im takin tabs<br>
Sho nuff stuff to grab<br>
Like shirts it hurts<br>
Wit a neck to wreck<br>
Took a poll cause our soul<br>
Took a toll<br>
From the education<br>
Of a tv station<br>
But look around<br>
Hear go the sound of the wreckin ball<br>
Boom and pound<br>
When i<br>
Shut em down<br>
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9<br>
What I use in the battle for the mind<br>
I hit it hard<br>
Like it supposed<br>
Pullin no blows to the nose<br>
Like uncle l said Im rippin up shows<br>
Then what it is<br>
Only 5 percent of the biz<br>
Im addin woes<br>
Thats how da way it goes<br>
Then u think I rank never drank, point blank<br>
I own loans<br>
Suckers got me runnin from the bank<br>
Civil liberty I cant see to pay a fee<br>
I never saw a way to pay a sap<br>
To read the law<br>
Then become a victim of a lawyer<br>
Dont know ya, never saw ya<br>
Tape cued<br>
Gettin me sued<br>
Playin games wit my head<br>
What the judge said put me in the red<br>
Got me thinkin bout a trigger to the lead<br>
No no<br>
My education mind say<br>
Suckers gonna pay<br>
Anyway<br>
There gonna be a day<br>
cause the troop they roll in<br>
To posse up<br>
Whole from the ground<br>
Ready to go<br>
Throw another round<br>
Sick of the ride<br>
Its suicide<br>
For the other side of town<br>
When I find a way to shut em down<br>
Who count the money<br>
In da neigborhood<br>
But we spendin money<br>
To no end lookin for a friend<br>
In a war to the core<br>
Rippin up the poor in da stores<br>
Till they get a brother<br>
Kickin down doors<br>
Then I figure I kick it bigger<br>
Look em dead in the eye<br>
And they wince<br>
Defense is pressurized<br>
They dont want it to be<br>
Another racial attack<br>
In disguise so give some money back<br>
I like nike but wait a minite<br>
The neighborhood supports so put some<br>
Money in it<br>
Corporations owe<br>
Dey gotta give up the dough<br>
To da town<br>
Or else<br>
We gotta shut em down<br>
<br>
