Slippin’

DMX - Slippin’ Follow to @DjSophiaRocks Lyrics: Ha ha ha ha ha ha uhh See to live is to suffer but to survive well that’s to find meaning in the suffering. [Chorus] Ay yo I’m slippin’ I’m fallin’ I can’t get up Ay yo I’m slippin’ I’m fallin’ I can’t get up Ay yo I’m slippin’ I’m fallin’ I gots to get up Get back on my feet so I can tear shit up! [Repeat] [1]I been through mad different phases like mazes to find my way & now I know that happy days are not far away If I’m strong enough I’ll live long enough to see my kids doing something more constructive with they time than bids I know because I been there now I’m in there sit back & look at what it took for me to get there First came the bullshit: the drama with my mama she got on some fly shit so I split and said that I’ma be that seed that doesn’t need much to succeed strapped with mad greed and a heart that doesn’t bleed I’m ready for the world or at least I thought I was baggin’ niggas when I caught a buzz for thinking about how short I was Going too fast it wouldn’t last but yo I couldn’t tell group homes & institutions, prepare my ass for jail They put me in a situation forcin’ me to be a man when I was just learnin’ to stand without a helpin’ hand Damn, was it my fault, somethin’ I did to make a father leave his first kid at 7 doin’ my first bid? Back on the scene at 14 with a scheme to get more green than I’d ever seen in a dream and by all means I will be living high off the hog and I never gave a fuck about much but my dog That’s my only mutha-fucka I had offered my last Just another little nigga headed nowhere fast [Chorus] [2]That ain’t the half “uhh!“ Shit get’s worse as I get older actions become bolder heart got colder chip on my shoulder that I dared a nigga to touch didn’t need a click cause I scared a nigga that much One deep with the pitch startin’ shit for kicks catchin’ vicks throwin’ bricks gettin by bein’ slick used to get high to get by used to have to (sounds like) “buff my hell“ in the morning before I could fly I ate something a couple of forties made me hate somethin’ I did some coke now I’m ready to take something 3 years later showing signs of stress didn’t keep my hair cut or give a fuck how I dressed I’m possessed by the darker side livin’ the cruddy life shit like this kept a nigga with a bloody knife wanna make records but I’m fuckin’ it up I’m slippin’ I’m fallin’ I can’t get up [Chorus] [3]Wasn’t long before I hit rock bottom Niggas talkin shit like damn look how that rock got him Open like a window no more Indo look at a video sayin’ to myself that could’ve been yo ass on the TV believe me it could be done somethin’s got to give gots to change cause I’ve got a son I’ve got to do the right thing for shorty and that means no more getting high drinking forties So I get back lookin’ type slick again Fake niggas jump back on my dick again Nothin’ but love for those that know how it feel & much respect to all my niggas that kept it real Kept a nigga strong “Uhh“ kept a nigga from doin’ wrong “Uhh“ Niggas who they is and this is yo fuckin’ song and to my boo who stuck with a nigga through all the bullshit you’ll get yours because it’s due [Chorus] See, this is that shit. This is that shit that all niggas can relate to. This is from the heart baby, don’t get it twisted Ahh X RATED!!!!! Can’t get up, I gots to get up This is from the heart baby, don’t get it twisted Music video from DMX performing Slippin’.
