Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
4
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
5
(I'm walkin down the backstreets)
6
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
7
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
8
(I be walkin down the backstreets)
9
Yo, here goes some info on my flow and how I move
10
to a def groove, I keep my rep smooth
11
On the down-low, I travel with my mind to the street
12
Concrete, like the gravel I'm in deep
13
So I gotta hit ya from a real perspective
14
Cause anyone who's talkin that crap, will surely get his
15
I'm not the one to act flashy
16
Cause man where I be at, we don't have to be classy
17
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
18
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
19
(I'm walkin down the backstreets)
20
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
21
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
22
(I be walkin down the backstreets)
23
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
24
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
25
(Walkin down the backstreets)
26
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
27
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
28
(I be walkin down the backstreets)
29
Check it stupid
30
While you're out there, on the main streets frontin
31
Your game's week, so I'm huntin you down clown
32
Cause you need to learn somethin
33
All that bluffin, won't get you nothin but killed
34
No mission fulfilled, because there's others who will
35
get jealous, hell if they can take clout from you, they'll do it
36
So that's what I'm about to do, I'll step to it
37
and strip you of your pride (your pride)
38
And then I'll stick and I'll rip you up from all sides
39
or possibly I'll let you slide, slime
40
Cause you'll set your own death in just a matter of time
41
Yeah, and I'll be somewhere on the sidelines, y'know
42
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
43
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
44
(Walkin down the backstreets)
45
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
46
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
47
(I be walkin down the backstreets)
48
So when you're lookin for me, here's where I'll be
49
I'll be walkin down the backstreets in your vicinity
50
Cause I been out here for a few
51
So all that you're doin, ain't really nothin new (nothin new)
52
I peeped the way you always perpetrate
53
You're so phony, you make me wanna regurgitate
54
Since you're ridin so high, you're bound to fall
55
while I stand tall, and you don't get no props at all out here
56
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
57
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
58
(walkin down the backstreets)
59
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
60
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
61
(I be walkin down the backstreets)
62
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
63
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
64
(Walkin down the backstreets)
65
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
66
(It's the backstreets)
67
Down the backstreets, down the backstreets
68
(In your backstreets)
69
Down the backstreets, is a mind state
70
Cause I don't have to be a pop star to rhyme great
71
I've been out here observin things
72
So now all fake gangsters and pranksters I'm servin
73
YouknowhatI'msayin? I'm the king
74
Come down the backstreets where it's dark
75
I'ma snatch your heart
76
So get a handle on life and quit livin so trife
77
Or else we're gonna have to run up, and SMACK all the weak
78
Comin straight from the backstreets
79
And I'm out, ninety-three, it's all me
