Down For Life

(album: State Of The World Address - 1994)

If you were to ask for a favor
There's no such thing, just natural behavior
You see we're family inside
To say we're down with you, yo, we say it with pride
Because to us you're real people
Never talking down, always as an equal

We're brothers of blood
Brothers of blood!
We share the knife
And now we'll see
Who is down for life!

But you front and leave us in doubt
We know who you are and what you're all about
Not sharing mutual respect
And having to worry about sticking out our necks
Instead of crying about the loss
We're thankful for those who are
Down for the cause!

We're brothers of blood
Brothers of blood!
We share the knife
And now we'll see
Who is down for life!

Down for life!

We live our lives full of rage
Keeping ourselves down, mentality of the stone age
Negative emotions project zero
Worrying and hating, you'll never be a hero
Reach around our back and pull out the knife
And knowing exactly who's down for life!

We're brothers of blood
Brothers of blood!
We share the knife
And now we'll see
Who is down for life!
