letra de keep me down - scarface
this song is about a n-gg- always trying to keep you down
you know you got to touch that
we made something from nothing and vowed to never tear it apart
we turned the street hustle into an art
that would quickly change life forever for us
no more riding bikes or catching the bus
we on the roll up, money to fold up
with cognac and cooked yola
got the neighborhood about to blow up, but hold up
i see this van sittin?, this old cat in a fitted
trying to get your little homey tore up
yo bruh, we ain? t working on this corner take your -ss on, dog
? fore you make me feed your -ss to my hogs you f-cking f-got
i know you want to catch me with this bag so you can hide me
or with my 44 so you can 45 me
you put this sh-t off in our neighborhoods and sweat us
and when you finally catch us up you give us letters
a cold thing just when a n-gg- reach his gold man
you hand him a case for easing out the dope game and i? m
watching us unfold with the times
he don? t really want a n-gg- to climb
you? d rather separate me from my family forever
instead of trying to keep us together
you motherf-ckers would rather keep me down
so what i rap about these streets
that don? t make me be no less of a man
than a person that do work with his hands
it? s bad enough i got to deal with all these pressures that stand
you tryin? to make me stray away from my plan
know what i? m sayin?
i? m from the gutter, where all we had was one another
no wheat bread to b-tter, from one bed to the other
all uncles and no brother my mother? s at work
my grandfather was my dad and when he died it hurt
and as i hold back the tears my eye-wells swell
i been praying for heaven, i been living in h-ll
and these n-gg-s in my age group is dead or either locked up
the b-tches no better, they smoked out or knocked up
but i still love my hood, that? s where it started
ain? t no hard feelings, we partners n-gg-, regardless
that? s why you always see me coming around
? cause i could never turn my back on my town but still i? m
watching us unfold with the times
he don? t really want a n-gg- to climb
you? d rather separate me from my family forever
instead of trying to keep us together
you motherf-ckers would rather keep me down
watching us unfold with the times
he don? t really want a n-gg- to climb
you? d rather separate me from my family forever
instead of trying to keep us together
you motherf-ckers would rather keep me down
money never changed me
money changed the people around
now they plot to try to keep me down
but still i rise like yeast
your whole conversation? bout b
f-ck a n-gg- talking bout me, i? m a g
the realest motherf-cker ever done it
you can? t continue to pimp me and y? all eat from it
so f-ck every soul who ever felt like i owed
them a god d-mn dime, or a god d-mn rhyme
or a god d-mn chance, motherf-cker you sad
you a grown -ss man, holding a n-gg- hand
now get out on your own, stop depending on your homes
to chuck you a bone, and stop throwing stones
and that goes for everybody thinking it? s them
f-ck you, you and you her
him and him, tom, d-ck and kim
all of y? all stand accused saying f-ck to me
and i done bought your children? s shoes i? m
watching us unfold with the times
he don? t really want a n-gg- to climb
you? d rather separate me from my family forever
instead of trying to keep us together
you motherf-ckers would rather keep me down
watching us unfold with the times
he don? t really want a n-gg- to climb
you? d rather separate me from my family forever
instead of trying to keep us together
you motherf-ckers would rather keep me down
