We Can Get Down by DJ Smurf&P.M.H.I. (2024)

We don't get down like y'all
Na, na, na-na, na, na-na, na-na
Na, na, na, na-na, na, na, na
Na, na, na-na, na, na-na, na-na
We don't get down like y'all (nope)
Sucka nigg*, we don't get down like y'all (nope)

Hey, it's been a lot of back and forth over this and that

So I don't pick the bobo no more, I just get it fact
Listen, pimpin', let me tell you what the business is
Y'all know some so I'ma tell you what the difference is
See, we're old school, you're just old news
We used to move blow, and you just blow dude
See we the talk of the town, me and my whole crew
You run around town gossip, like the hoes do
See you name-drop when nobody knows you
We get the lames out our sector, like we 'posed to
My crew, we cop the Bentley, Brooklyn and the Rolls too
You give her roses, I'm the one she bring the rose to
So you, say you're shining well I guess I'm shining more
So high up, I'm soaring, thirty I'm like a dinosaur
Carnivore, meat eater year, G's they respect
Me to you like a comparing a vet to a cadet, nigg*

We don't get down like y'all (nope)
I ball
I do, you talk
I'm real, you flaw
puss* nigg*, we don't get down like y'all
Sucka nigg*, we don't get down like y'all

Don't call it a comeback
Again ride, being from the fed pen
Pull up on them suckers, pop the trunk and tell 'em get in
Thought I lost a step, well guess again
Back to balling, getting bread, bringing checks in
Yeah, like we did on my last case
I show you how to make a blessing out of bad breaks
Hey, let me set you nigg*s ass straight
Hoe want there clothes back, loosen up fa*gbay
Them hot pants bad for your prostate
Lime green high, make a drag queen, hot date
At stores asking for the same size the bitches buy
They say is hip, but where I'm from we call it sissy-fied

We don't get down like y'all
I ball
I do, you talk
I'm real, you flaw
puss* nigg*, we don't get down like y'all
Sucka nigg*, we don't get down like y'all

Ayy, before us there was none, after us no more to ever be
This is the greatest show on Earth you'll ever see
I still do it for my nigg*s in the streets, getting to it
Blowing money like my nigg*, Big Meech used to do it
Say we blowing money fast, big old money bag
Three to four hundred cash just to make them suckers mad
Back in the saddle the winner of every battle
Been the best since I was rapping in the rattle, world travel
As you comment on the rumors of what have you beware, dude
Prayer can't prepare you, how dare you
Disrespect my presence peasants? I will tear you
A new one, I'll poop on your egos then move on
Rolls Royce back seat, no grey poupon
A true don, three piece Paul Smith suit on
Peon, see it ain't no neon in my nuance
Hear the truth on every song I spew on (blaow)

We don't get down like y'all
I ball
I do, you talk
I'm real, you flaw
puss* nigg*, we don't get down like y'all
Sucka nigg*, we don't get down like y'all

Na, na, na-na, na, na-na, na-na
Na, na, na, na-na, na, na, na
Na, na, na-na, na, na-na, na-na
We don't get down like y'all

Sucka nigg*, we don't get down like y'all
puss* nigg* (hahaha)

In the song "We Can Get Down," DJ Smurf and P.M.H.I. are asserting their dominance and boasting about their superiority over their competition. They claim to be old school players who don't get down like the newbies, who they call out for being gossipers and name-droppers. They also make references to their success and wealth, as well as their ability to bounce back from hardships.

The song's lyrics are meant to convey a message of confidence and strength. DJ Smurf and P.M.H.I. are essentially telling their haters that they can't be stopped, and that their style is unmatched. By highlighting their accomplishments and using playful insults, the artists are sending a clear message that they are not to be messed with, and that they will continue to rise to the top.

Interestingly, the song's chorus is borrowed from a popular children's rhyme, which adds an unexpected element of humor to the otherwise serious lyrics. The use of a childish chant in a song about adult themes serves to underscore the arrogance of the artists, and adds to the song's overall tone of playfulness and bravado.

We don't get down like y'all
We don't act like you or do things the way you do

Na, na, na-na, na, na-na, na-na
Refrain repeated throughout the song

Na, na, na, na-na, na, na, na
Refrain repeated throughout the song

Sucka nigg*, we don't get down like y'all
We don't act like fools or succumb to negative behaviors

Hey, it's been a lot of back and forth over this and that
There have been many arguments and disagreements

So I don't pick the bobo no more, I just get it fact
I don't choose the lesser option anymore, I only go for the best

Listen, pimpin', let me tell you what the business is
Listen up, I'll tell you what you need to know

Y'all know some so I'ma tell you what the difference is
You may know some things, but I'll explain the real difference

See, we're old school, you're just old news
We have a timeless style and you're outdated

We used to move blow, and you just blow dude
We used to sell drugs, and you're just a user

See we the talk of the town, me and my whole crew
We're the topic of conversation, the big shots

You run around town gossip, like the hoes do
You spread rumors like a gossiping woman

See you name-drop when nobody knows you
You mention famous people's names when you don't even know them

We get the lames out our sector, like we 'posed to
We get rid of the losers in our area, like we should

My crew, we cop the Bentley, Brooklyn and the Rolls too
My group owns fancy cars like Bentleys and Rolls-Royces

You give her roses, I'm the one she bring the rose to
You may give her flowers, but she brings her affection to me

So you, say you're shining well I guess I'm shining more
You may think you're doing well, but I'm doing better

So high up, I'm soaring, thirty I'm like a dinosaur
I'm very successful and I feel like I'm on top of the world

Carnivore, meat eater year, G's they respect
I am a tough, respected person like a predator in the animal kingdom

Me to you like a comparing a vet to a cadet, nigg*
I am so much better than you, it's like comparing a veteran to a freshman

I ball
I'm successful and rich

I do, you talk
I take action while you just talk

I'm real, you flaw
I am genuine while you have shortcomings

Don't call it a comeback
Don't assume I'm losing my touch just because I've been away for a while

Again ride, being from the fed pen
I'm back in the game after being in prison

Pull up on them suckers, pop the trunk and tell 'em get in
I approach my enemies, open my car's trunk and force them to get in

Thought I lost a step, well guess again
You may have thought I lost my touch, but I'm still on top

Back to balling, getting bread, bringing checks in
I'm back to making money, earning a living

Yeah, like we did on my last case
I'm making money like I did before my previous legal trouble

I show you how to make a blessing out of bad breaks
I'll show you how to turn a negative situation into a positive outcome

Hey, let me set you nigg*s ass straight
Listen up, I'm going to explain things to you clearly

Hoe want there clothes back, loosen up fa*gbay
A woman wants her clothes returned; a man needs to relax

Them hot pants bad for your prostate
Wearing tight pants isn't good for your health

Lime green high, make a drag queen, hot date
Wearing bright green shoes would make a cross-dressing person look attractive

At stores asking for the same size the bitches buy
Someone is buying clothes in the same style and size as a woman

They say is hip, but where I'm from we call it sissy-fied
Some consider this fashionable, but I see it as silly and weak

Ayy, before us there was none, after us no more to ever be
We're unique and there won't be anyone like us again

This is the greatest show on Earth you'll ever see
Our group is the best and most entertaining you'll find

I still do it for my nigg*s in the streets, getting to it
I'm still working hard for my friends in the hood

Blowing money like my nigg*, Big Meech used to do it
I'm spending money extravagantly like my friend Big Meech did

Say we blowing money fast, big old money bag
We're spending a lot of money quickly, carrying large amounts of cash

Three to four hundred cash just to make them suckers mad
We're spending hundreds of dollars just to upset our enemies

Back in the saddle the winner of every battle
We're back in the game and always victorious

Been the best since I was rapping in the rattle, world travel
I've been the best since a young age and now I'm successful worldwide

As you comment on the rumors of what have you beware, dude
Be careful when you speak about rumors or gossip

Prayer can't prepare you, how dare you
Even praying won't help you, how dare you speak about me

Disrespect my presence peasants? I will tear you
If you disrespect me, I'll harm you

A new one, I'll poop on your egos then move on
I'll quickly defeat you and move on with my life

Rolls Royce back seat, no grey poupon
I'm riding in a Rolls Royce but I don't have any fancy mustard

A true don, three piece Paul Smith suit on
I'm a true boss, dressed in a three piece suit by Paul Smith

Peon, see it ain't no neon in my nuance
I'm no ordinary person, and there's nothing flashy about my unique qualities

Hear the truth on every song I spew on (blaow)
Listen carefully to the truth I tell in every song I create

puss* nigg*
An insult aimed at someone who is weak or cowardly
