Buckin’ Em Down Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, man the flavor, flavor
Yeah
Ah yeah, what we doing?

[Chorus]
Buck, buckin' 'em down, buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down. buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down, buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down. buck, buckin' 'em down

[Verse 1]
Ninety-three comin' off with the flicks and the rough shit
Packin' nigga's kicks with black pits
Sabertooth, the truth, ha-coot! spit the juice
And let the hot-ass-lead-loose (*gun shots*)
Let it fly, betty-bye if you're ready to die
Kickin' your ass and you can ask Keith Sweat why
I make your Benz seem obsolete G
Rippin' your ass discretely, if you meet me
Puttin' bullets holes in tents, no fingerprints
You'll catch a slug in your ass while you jump the fence
Another young black man just caught a case
Not from Tecs or mace, from gettin' funky like a staircase

[Chorus]
(Politicians) Buck, buckin' 'em down (punks), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Landlords) Buck, buckin' 'em down (chumps), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Taxes) Buck, buckin' 'em down (bills), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Beggers) Buck, buckin' 'em down (we still), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Politicians) Buck, buckin' 'em down (punks), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Landlords) Buck, buckin' 'em down (chumps), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Taxes) Buck, buckin' 'em down (bills), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Beggers) Buck, buckin' 'em down (we still), buck, buckin' 'em down
[Verse 2]
Yeah, what a scene, pullin' a Tec
With an extra magazine out the baggy-ass jeans
Wettin' up the block with mad Tec shots
Drop the Glock, puttin' crackheads in headlocks
Like a cheetah with my dig-beaters
Ten millimeter, buck, buckin' you down from my two-seater
Rippin' shit for the brothers who ain't here
Killin' bears and kickin' snitches right off the pier
Glock full of guts, steady buckin' butts
Lettin' moonlight in your head-pull-puds
Def Jam in your ass for the jams
You've got posse, but are you nice with your hands?

[Chorus]
(Politicians) Buck, buckin' 'em down (punks), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Landlords) Buck, buckin' 'em down (chumps), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Taxes) Buck, buckin' 'em down (bills), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Beggers) Buck, buckin' 'em down (we still), buck, buckin' 'em down

[Bridge]
Biggin' them up and the rippin' them up and the
Shakin' them up and the pickin' them up and the
Biggin' them up and the rippin' them up and the
Shakin' them up and the pickin' them up and the
Biggin' them up and the rippin' them up and the
Shakin' them up and the pickin' them up and the
Biggin' them up and the rippin' them up and the
Shakin' them up and the pickin' them up and the
[Chorus]
(Politicians) Buck, buckin' 'em down (punks), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Landlords) Buck, buckin' 'em down (chumps), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Taxes) Buck, buckin' 'em down (bills), buck, buckin' 'em down
(Beggers) Buck, buckin' 'em down (we still), buck, buckin' 'em down

[Verse 3]
Draggin' you flower-ass rappers outta clubs
Thinkin' it pay too much, wet 'em like a tub
But in the slang, in the speech, in the style
Connect, can never be ripped by a suburban child
Gunsmoke, bonanza on the block yeah
When all the shit was dead, coulda did a bid
Conferring emcee scramble, dismantle
Never gamble and try to handle a vandal
You'll catch a forty upside ya head with ya fake dreads
Tryin' to front like you're packin' lead
Dum-Dums are firing in a spiral
And now you got more beef than a gyro
Peep the ballistic, kick, slick, quick
Flip a script-a-slips, but that ain't new shit
Burnin' ya crib down
I'm frontin' personal, he's hearin' how a nine sounds
Busy-quizick, the diz-r is in
Fizz up his li-life, the visits was borin'
[Chorus]
Buck, buckin' 'em down, buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down. buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down, buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down. buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down, buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down. buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down, buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down. buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down, buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down. buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down, buck, buckin' 'em down
Buck, buckin' 'em down. buck, buckin' 'em down

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
