Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Livin' on phat pockets on flat wit the gat
Rollin' around nine deuce Cadillac
Still got my homies to watch my back
And they'll smoke ya **** if ya wanna come chat
[Verse 2]
That's why some pigs an the kids come sweatin'
They follow, a hollow point shell's hard to swallow
Why wallow when ya come to roll on? I put the clip
In a 45, bring ya **** on
[Verse 3]
Kickin' dust on ya head as the gat busts
My grip surrounded
I'm about to get rushed, I brushed with death
How many shells stuffed in my closet
By my big cro-mag's cut?
[Verse 4]
When the **** goes down, ya better be ready
(When the **** goes down)
When the **** goes down, ya better be ready
(When the **** goes down)
When the **** goes down, ya better be ready
(When the **** goes down)
When the **** goes down, ya better be ready
(Ya better be ready)
[Verse 5]
I told the boys, get the sawed-off Glock
And the rest of the gats as I strapped on the bullet-proof vest, boom
I think I caught one to the chest, hot damn
I didn't want to kill a man
[Verse 6]
Ship, I still stand tall with the hill clan y'all
Better stand back, **** 'bout to fall
I'm comin' out blastin' like Yosemite Sam
Get the cheese and the bread for the ham
[Verse 7]
When the **** goes down, ya better be ready
(When the **** goes down)
When the **** goes down, ya better be ready
(When the **** goes down)
When the **** goes down, ya better be ready
(When the **** goes down)
When the **** goes down, ya better be ready
(Ya better be ready)
