letra de slippin' (demo version/funkdafied beat) - dmx

yeah
some ol’… out the m-th-f-ckin closet type sh-t
knawimsayin’
some crazy real… down to earth type sh-t
real n-ggas know what im talking about
knawimsayin’
peep it…

[verse 1]
i’ve been through mad different phases like mazes just to find my way
and now i know that happy days is not far away
if i’m strong enough, i’ll live long enough to see my kids
doing something more constructive with their time than f-ckin’ bids
i know because i been there, now that i’m in there
i can sit back and look at what it took for me to get there
first came the bullsh-t, the drama with my mama
she got on some fly sh-t, so i split and said that i’ma
be that seed that doesn’t need much to succeed
strapped with mad greed and a hеart that doesn’t bleed
i’m ready for the world or at lеast i thought i was
bagging n-ggas when i caught a buzz
for thinking about how short i was
goin’ too fast, it wouldn’t last, but yo i couldn’t tell
group homes and institutions prepared my ass for jail
they put me in a situation forcing me to be a man
when i was just learning to stand without a helping hand
d-mn, was it my fault, something i did
to make a father leave his first kid at seven doin’ my first bid?
back on the scene at fourteen with a scheme
to get more cream than i’d ever seen in a dream
and by all means i will be livin’ high off the hog
and i never gave a f-ck about much but my dog
that’s my only mothaf-cka i hit off with my last
just another lil n-gga headed nowhere fast
[chorus]
ayo, i’m slippin’, i’m fallin’, i can’t get up
ayo, i’m slippin’, i’m fallin’, i can’t get up
ayo, i’m slippin’, i’m fallin’, i gots to get up
get me back on my feet so i can tear sh-t up

[verse 2]
that ain’t the half, sh-t gets worse as i get older
actions become bolder, my heart got colder
chip on my shoulder that i dared a n-gga to touch
i didn’t need a clique ’cause i scared a n-gga that much
one deep with the pit startin’ sh-t for kicks
catchin’ vics, throwin’ bricks, gettin’ by bein’ sl!ck
i used to get high, just to get by
i used to have to get my philly in the morning before i could fly
ate somethin’, a couple of forties made me hate somethin’
after a coolie i was ready to take somethin’
three years later showin’ signs of stress
didn’t keep my hair cut or give a f-ck how i dressed
i’m possessed by the darker side, livin’ the cruddy life
sh-t like this kept a n-gga with a bl–dy knife
wanna make records but i’m f-ckin’ it up
i’m slippin’, i’m fallin’, i can’t get up

[chorus]
ayo, i’m slippin’, i’m fallin’, i can’t get up
ayo, i’m slippin’, i’m fallin’, i can’t get up
ayo, i’m slippin’, i’m fallin’, i gots to get up
get me back on my feet so i can tear sh-t up
