Tell me, are you (A minor) down?
When it's (D minor) going down?
You got to hold it (A minor) down,
(A major) don't (A minor) talk it, (D minor) put it down, homie
Tell me, (D major) are you (A minor) down?
(A major) When (A minor) it's (D minor) going down?
You got to hold it (A major) down, don't talk it,
(D minor) put it down, homie
(D major) Have you (A major) ever had a lesson from an
OG?
(D minor) From a nigga that's been in the war?
Been (A major) locked up longer than I've
been on the (D minor) earth
And his crime is defending the poor
And they can (A major) tell you about death
and tell you about (D minor) life
But most of all they tell you about sacrifice
And they can (A major) tell you if a woman ain't
with you when you're (D minor) down
That she never really
could be your wife
What it mean to be
(A minor) D -O -W -N?
Is your (D minor) homie still down
when the struggle you in?
You wanna have a good (A minor) time,
make it hot
When the pigs come (D minor) down on the block,
what the fuck were you then?
Now you wanna get (A minor) high with me,
nigga, organize with me
(D minor) Start a closed drive,
then maybe we can start a fire
Where my
(A minor) RBGs?
(A major) My gorillas with a
(D minor) G -U -E
Don't got a I
Ching, homie, get free
Rule number (A minor) one, when we (A major) ride,
we (A minor) follow the (D minor) plan
There's a role for every man
With a chain of com (A major) mand
Even when the shit hit the fan
(D minor) Anything get out of hand, we still stand
To me, being (A minor) down mean
more than being friends
Or (D minor) can we comrades and struggle
through any trouble?
(A major) Sacrifice my life in combat (D minor) for you
So you know I gotta love you
I'm down for my (A minor) brothers and sisters
Fuck the (D minor) system, bust your pistols
Nigga, I'm with you
(A major) And just put a rag on your face
when you (D minor) ride
You don't want no satellites
to take your picture
We (A minor) gotta have a lot
of discipline to (D minor) win
Any comfort within is not something you pretend,
homie
(A major) A lot of niggas be talking that (D minor) shit
When it really go down,
they'll be going to win, homie
(A major) Can't be no (A minor) coward, (D minor) gotta get this power
By any means,
gotta (A major) know yourself and your enemy
When (D minor) you're putting it
down for your family
Can't (D major) tell by no (A major) tattoo,
(A minor) can't (D minor) tell by no handshake
It start with the heart,
being (A major) down is a (D minor) attitude
Doing what you gotta do for the crusade
By definition of a (A minor) soldier, revolutionary
Milit (D minor) ary -minded,
ready for whatever, nigga
Hope for the (A major) best,
but prepare for the worst
Stay aware, (D minor) be alert, bomb first, no pity
Tell me, (A major) are you (A minor) down?
When it's (D minor) going down
You got to hold it (A major) down
Don't (A minor) talk it, (D minor) put it down
Homie, tell me, (A major) are you (A minor) down?
(A major) When (A minor) it's (D minor) going down
You got to hold it (A minor) down
(A major) Don't talk it, (D minor) put it down
Homie, tell me, are you down?
