Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, back by popular demand, it's about to get Godly
Yeah, hold it now
C'mon, c'mon, yeah
C'mon, c'mon, yeah
[Verse 2]
Bear witness on the way we stay cuttin 'em down
In 2002, shuttin' 'em down
Have you sipping on it till you start sucking it down
I hope you know that we ain't fuckin' around
**** you better believe when you see me the shit be double trouble
I overload and take this shit to another level
I shut it down, sho' nuff, pack your bags
Let me work, make it hurt, 'cause I'm next to wreck
[Verse 3]
Lay flat ****, hit the deck, or face big disrespect
In addition, the shit we wreck
Firework flow, spit and make a big effect
Bang it in the truck until your whole shit eject, c'mon
Stop ****, close your shop
Scud missile launched, fire burn quick, every shit we drop
From the ground with another sound, yes, we put it down
And always boom and pound, so we shut 'em down
[Verse 4]
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Sh-sh, sh-sh, shut, shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em, sh-sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Sh-sh, sh-sh, shut, shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
[Verse 5]
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine
Coming through, better tuck in your shine
Once you're looking for the heat, if you seek, it will find
I had these devils watching me saying they seek and it's mine
Now hold up, we drop the bomb first then get under your mom's skirt
To get her frenzied like a motherfucking rock concert
While you're busy and tryin' to figure what the God's worth
I'll malfunction your plans 'til the motherfucking sound work
[Verse 6]
Now I'ma cuss when I bust your ass
And leave 'em stiff when I hit 'em like a mustard gas
Steam fire when I puff, then I flick the ash
You wack and I had enough, put your shit in the trash
Now you know we got the shit in the smash
Wild until you slip and you crash, y'know we keep the shit in the stash
From the ground when we come around, yes, we put it down
And always boom and pound, when we shut 'em down
[Verse 7]
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
I shut 'em down (Shut 'em down, sh-sh-shut 'em down)
[Verse 8]
As we rocking you off to the future
Oh, we come to give you that
Operating like we be official
Yeah, we come to multiply
And we're planning the scheme for the long win
Yeah, our shit be always right
Every move you'll see how it's related
