(feat. Lonnie Liston Smith) [Guru] Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (I'm walkin down the backstreets) Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (I be walkin down the backstreets) Yo, here goes some info on my flow and how I move To a def groove, I keep my rep smooth On the down-low, I travel with my mind to the street Concrete, like the gravel I'm in deep So I gotta hit ya from a real perspective Cause anyone who's talkin that crap, will surely get his I'm not the one to act flashy Cause man where I be at, we don't have to be cla**y Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (I'm walkin down the backstreets) Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (I be walkin down the backstreets) Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (Walkin down the backstreets) Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (I be walkin down the backstreets) Check it stupid While you're out there, on the main streets frontin Your game's week, so I'm huntin you down clown Cause you need to learn somethin All that bluffin, won't get you nothin but k**ed No mission fulfilled, because there's others who will Get jealous, hell if they can take clout from you, they'll do it So that's what I'm about to do, I'll step to it And strip you of your pride (your pride) And then I'll stick and I'll rip you up from all sides Or possibly I'll let you slide, slime Cause you'll set your own d**h in just a matter of time Yeah, and I'll be somewhere on the sidelines, y'know Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (Walkin down the backstreets) Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (I be walkin down the backstreets) So when you're lookin for me, here's where I'll be I'll be walkin down the backstreets in your vicinity Cause I been out here for a few So all that you're doin, ain't really nothin new (nothin new) I peeped the way you always perpetrate You're so phony, you make me wanna regurgitate Since you're ridin so high, you're bound to fall While I stand tall, and you don't get no props at all out here Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (walkin down the backstreets) Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (I be walkin down the backstreets) Down the backstreets, down the backstreets Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (Walkin down the backstreets) Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (It's the backstreets) Down the backstreets, down the backstreets (In your backstreets) Down the backstreets, is a mind state Cause I don't have to be a pop star to rhyme great I've been out here observin things So now all fake gangsters and pranksters I'm servin YouknowhatI'msayin? I'm the king Come down the backstreets where it's dark I'ma snatch your heart So get a handle on life and quit livin so trife Or else we're gonna have to run up, and SMACK all the weak Comin straight from the backstreets And I'm out, ninety-three, it's all me
