Duck Down! (Album Version|Edited)

Duck Down! (Explicit) - The Roots

Written by：Montez Robe

Yea we gettin' ready to break y'all it's winner take all

The game is locked we down to the eight ball

The time is now it ain't nothin' to wait for

I'm a king by blood a soldier by nature

I'm somethin' like a threat to y'all space cadets

'Cause you never met brother nothin' like me yet

So push another slice into your toast and tighten your vests

Cause it's a warrior you seein' here tonight in the flesh

I give you somethin' high voltage double dosage

Runnin' with these vultures givin' me ulcers

Which one of these hustlers bringin' the thunder

Riq geez not another man takin' us under

Ni**a please which philly cat doin' his own thing

Might say black my give you a code name

Round my neck see the microphone hang

Have your lady lips singin' like on soul train

The niggaz that's a problem is minimal margin

The colonel captain lieutenant general sergeant

Black one man army move in on your squadron

You sittin' still you know you a target

You heard you better duck down

See me comin' better tuck those chains

Cause you don't wanna feel them thangs

If you want it you can get it baby

You know you need to get low

Duck down duck down

See me comin' better tuck those chains

Cause you don't wanna feel them thangs

If you want it you can get it baby

You know you need to get low

Duck down duck down

Yea we gettin' set to get rid of y'all that's what it's headin' for

The underdog knuckle and brawl with the bigger ball

I spit what your wig absorb sicker than sycamore

I'm creatin' a circumstance that you a victim of

The rebel or the renegade out on the quest

The super black man runnin' wit a s on his chest

And stand for the straight struggle to escape the stress

You think it's sweet tryin' to eat you ain't taste this yet

So make y'all steps precautious into the darkness

Thoughts cold and heartless makin' me nauseous

Gettin' more remorses for what I done

If the lawyers and courts wonder what I run

You see the liberty is free but just for some

How you a gangster and you scared to bust your gun

For the call trust your fam' and trust nobody at all

Seein' brothers gettin' struck down

You better duck down

See me comin' better tuck those chains

Cause you don't wanna feel them thangs

If you want it you can get it baby

You know you need to get low

Duck down duck down

See me comin' better tuck those chains

Cause you don't wanna feel them thangs

If you want it you can get it baby

You know you need to get low

Duck down duck down

I can feel somethin' for sure I've been up in here before

A gladiator in a colliseum ready for war

That old timer holdin' his revolver set to blow

Just like a gladiator at whoever stick his head in the door

And one who been through it all anything go

Rather give it to you straight 'stead of speakin' in codes

'Cause man that b******t can get you riddled with holes

If you ain't insured than the hospitals is close

You got to go up town while ya leakin' on the ground

In cases like these you need to duck down

You're five dollar toys I'm a million dollar man

Esquire 'riq geez go according to plan

I'm thinkin' outside the box off the blocks

An outside your concept of time off the clocks for real

Well it's black thought your boss dj

However you brothers weigh that's what ya gonna pay

See me comin' better tuck those chains

Cause you don't wanna feel them thangs

If you want it you can get it baby

You know you need to get low

Duck down duck down

See me comin' better tuck those chains

Cause you don't wanna feel them thangs

If you want it you can get it baby

You know you need to get low

Duck down duck down You better duck down
