Skee-lo - You Ain't Down Lyrics
For one price, for one price, for one priceIn the whole history of man, in the whole history of man,In the whole history of manAll the people on this earth are joined by(skee-lo)I don't need your sympathy your misery is drivin me insaneYou got your hands out but i refrainFrom givin you a pound you bloody houndYou better take heed to cause i don't need you to hang aroundNow you wasn't cool ever since back when i got jumpedYou played the punk and ran a sprintSee one of us is trippin but i was just concernedAt the time i lost my walletAnd you found it stole my money then returned itYou used to claim in front of people we were next of kinI never knew that you were sleepin with my girlfriendAnd if i did i would've bashed you maybe thrashed youI never asked you homie tell me is it trueBecause i knew you were up to no goodSpreadin rumours on me in the neighbourhoodYeah, so let me bring this to my pointWe ain't friends, we ain't homies and we never shared a jointSo you ain't down(chorus)(skee-lo)(you ain't down)I don't need your sympathyYour simple case of misery has caused me pain(you ain't down with me no more)Yeah, you ain't down(you ain't down)I don't need your miseryCause mamma said what goes around comes back again(you ain't down with me no more)(you ain't down)(skee-lo)I remember girls in college who was never everAmong these beautiful women was my favourite name venettaPain, love and agony she's all of the aboveI keep thinkin to myself "oh i don't wanna fall in love"But oh venetta i read your letterAnd it gets better as i read on down the lines but in my mindI cannot find out why you wanna diss meGetting me to fall in love with you and just to say you can't be with me(you ain't down)You're messin with my head and although it seemsYour heart is darker than the night so i'm prepared to use my high beamsYou had me doin things silly thingsSharin with you my feelings and in the meantime you was killinMe softly hey women get off me you know you lost meHey that's what you get for actin flossyYou caused me to open up my eyes and look aroundI see that we ain't friends, we ain't lovers we ain't homies babyYou ain't down(chorus)(skee-lo)(you ain't down)I don't need your sympathyYour simple case of misery has caused me pain(you ain't down with me no more)Yeah, you ain't down(you ain't down)I don't need your miseryCause mamma said what goes around comes back again(you ain't down with me no more)(you ain't down)(you ain't down)I don't need your sympathyYour simple case of misery has caused me pain(you ain't down with me no more)Yeah, you ain't down(you ain't down)I don't need your miseryCause mamma said what goes around comes back again(you ain't down with me no more)(skee-lo)This is dedicated to the kids who ain't crewYou ain't never been down so homie ain't no pounds for youYou'll never know me so don't you try to show meWe can be friends you can now but somehow you did back thenJust to be down with me you don't need a change of heartJust change your life and your identityCause everybody's on my jock tryin to flag me downWhen i come around the blockIt's all the same the only thing that's changed isYou used to call me puff but now you call me by nameYou and your friends get no love, sympathy or painIf i gave you the chance then you would diss me againIs it fortune and fame that you persist to be around?I don't wanna see a smile i don't wanna see a frownSo now you know that's how it was and that's how it isBy the way stay out of my bizCause homie you ain't down(chorus)(skee-lo)(you ain't down)I don't need your sympathyYour simple case of misery has caused me pain(you ain't down with me no more)Yeah, you ain't down(you ain't down)I don't need your miseryCause mamma said what goes around comes back again(you ain't down with me no more)(you ain't down)(you ain't down)I don't need your sympathyYour simple case of misery has caused me pain(you ain't down with me no more)Yeah, you ain't down(you ain't down)I don't need your miseryCause mamma said what goes around comes back again(you ain't down with me no more)(you ain't down with me)(you ain't down with me)(you ain't down with me)
