Skee-lo - Top Of The Stairs lyrics

(skee-lo) Growin up as a kid tough skins and afros Wasn't south central, but still it came natural There wasn't nobody to watch my back Didn't wanna be strapped to get jacked Mama taught me not to trust no man Brother what's your plan? If you ever lose a fight, then you go back again and win And i don't care if it was one of your friends You better bury your feelings within And understand that on top of the stairs They got keys to catalacs bmw's mercedes, benz and all of that And on top of the stairs yeah They got colour tv's and even girls come in two pairs And on the bottom you've got nothin but guilt Bad feelings bein kept homies been k**ed When i die always know that i never was see my little brother drop So you better stay on top (chorus) (skee-lo) Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottom No one really cares about the guy beneath And everybody wants to be down with the dude On top of the stairs, top of the stairs Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottom No one really cares about the guy beneath And everybody wants to be down with the dude On top of the stairs, top of the stairs (skee-lo) Little brother look around you, can't you see All the possibilities and we, you and me To the bang boogie up jump the boogie To the boogie to the boogie to the beat, i'ma emcee I spent three years in mickey d's cleanin dishes Half of that time was makin wishes Want ya hit switches in a brand new six-fo' But all i could afford was another nine and roseau's chicken and waffles How bout that honda cord Used to watch drop by at night till i got bored But not no more really that's for sure Cause i gotta million honeys knockin on my door And i'm not tryin to score with one Cause diseases k** and that's ill To make a mill in you gettin done When you on top of the world girls may come But when you fall down you won't find one (chorus) (skee-lo) Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottom No one really cares about the guy beneath And everybody wants to be down with the dude On top of the stairs, top of the stairs Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottom No one really cares about the guy beneath And everybody wants to be down with the dude On top of the stairs, top of the stairs (skee-lo) Little brother this is all we got Me and you will be cruel Even though it doesn't seem like a lot, it is So don't be thinkin negative I know just how you feel when you got time to k** i'll tell you how it is I know you might be unsure Cause it gets rough out there and when it rains and pours I stole shoes from stores hung out with cool cats Put cars on flats broke windows with bats And that's not all even made prank phone calls I was flossin and sloshin in fox hills mall (so whattup y'all?) After all please check my credentials I once got busy in the whenchles yeah So throw your hands in the air Wave em around if you've been treated unfair Yeah cause no one cares (no one cares, no one cares) Top of the stairs (top of the stairs, top of the stairs) (chorus) (skee-lo) Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottom No one really cares about the guy beneath And everybody wants to be down with the dude On top of the stairs, top of the stairs Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottom No one really cares about the guy beneath And everybody wants to be down with the dude On top of the stairs, top of the stairs Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottom No one really cares about the guy beneath And everybody wants to be down with the dude On top of the stairs, top of the stairs Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottom No one really cares about the guy beneath And everybody wants to be down with the dude On top of the stairs, top of the stairs (skee-lo) Yeah to all my little brothers out there It's cool to be on top, but don't ever forget where you came from Most importantly you better remember The little guy you step on to get on top Is the same guy you gonna run into goin back down Yeah top of the stairs
