"Shake Down" lyrics

"Shake Down"

Konvict
Stand up, salute
DeVyne Stevens, up front is in the building, let's go
It's the Konvict album
Yeah, y'all done fucked up now
I got money now, nigga
I got enough money to free all the stars

He ain't lying
If you selling, we ain't buying
If it's scattered on your block, you best believe we supplyin'
From a key down to a half a pound, a quarter to a dime
Tryin' to own a piece of Brooklyn like my niggas John Klein
Hey, you know me, I'm known to rock with it
Roll through your spot with it, post up block with it
Hey, you know me, I'm on the block with it
Non-stop with it, violate and get popped with it
Hey, so I suggest you keep stepping on me
'Cause you will rarely find me without my weapon on me
Got the whole Konvict squad bettin' on me
And now the dots around the world are now connectin' on me

Hey now
A bunch of gangstas strapped, so make a way now
When they come wavin' them gats, you know to lay down
And give 'em all you got 'cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
Hey now
A bunch of gangstas strapped, so make a way now
When they come wavin' them gats, you know to lay down
And give 'em all you got 'cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
'Cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
'Cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
'Cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
Do I make myself clear? Oh oh oh
Hey, hey, hey

A fleet of European cars in my driveway
Murcielago, Gallardo, Ferrari
My shorty ridin' shotgun bumping Sade
Toes hangin' out the window, loadin' up my army
You know I keep a bad bitch breathin' on me
Also known to have no business with no beefin', homie
And won't hesitate to cock it when them people on me
So guess what? No exceptions to you neither, homie
You know I got that African connection
Locked up in a facility correction
I'm a star, style changed, hangin' like blow
Black royals in the front, we in the place now

Hey now
A bunch of gangstas strapped, so make a way now
When they come wavin' them gats, you know to lay down
And give 'em all you got 'cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
Hey now
A bunch of gangstas strapped, so make a way now
When they come wavin' them gats, you know to lay down
And give 'em all you got 'cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
'Cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
'Cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
'Cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
Do I make myself clear? Oh oh oh
Hey, hey, hey

Now I'ma show you how to break this down
Peal back, show you how to shake this down
First nigga to create this sound
Can't believe it took a Konvict to shake this town
Dippin' European linen with the v-net
Diamond-studded VVSs, no less
Kunta Kinte bracelet, lit up the whole set
My nigga, we on deck, bet' believe it's no sweat
Need street credibility, who you go get?
I give you that credibility for the right check
Keep your future on the shelf, quiet's where it's best kept
Don't want them upfront shooters bringin' red light

Hey now
A bunch of gangstas strapped, so make a way now
When they come wavin' them gats, you know to lay down
And give 'em all you got 'cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
Hey now
A bunch of gangstas strapped, so make a way now
When they come wavin' them gats, you know to lay down
And give 'em all you got 'cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
'Cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
'Cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
'Cause it's a shake down, oh oh oh
Do I make myself clear? Oh oh oh
