Lyrics

[Verse 1]
One, two
We did it
Freedom
We live it
One, two, y'all
We made it
Freedom
Let's take it
C'mon, bust
[Verse 2]
Are you ready to rock with us?
Ain't nobody stopping us
Are you ready to rock with us?
Ain't nobody stopping us
Are you ready to rock with us?
Ain't nobody stopping us
Get ready to rock with us
'Cause ain't nobody stopping us
[Verse 3]
Get Down Brothers, we came to rock
And you know we had to fight to reach the top
Five young kids who came to rock
And you know we had to take it to the top
Plus one chance we had to steal
Imperial MCs with two wheels of steel
This is our time to start the clock
You know we had to fight to reach the top
[Verse 4]
Want the Get Down, Get Down Brothers
Want the Get Down, Get Down Brothers
[Verse 5]
Dizzee riding through the city
In an OJ all the girls think I'm sexy
We had to break the locks
We fought our way up to the top
I'm Ra-Ra live in the flesh
Coming hard with rhymes I finesse
We had to break the locks
We fought our way up to the top
And I'm Books, I be the walking library
Fought my whole way here, hey y'all hear me?
We had to break the locks
We fought our way up to the top
And I'm MC Boo-Boo, I'm one of the prophets
Combination to the safe, I got it, yeah
We had to break the locks
And here's DJ Shaolin
Give it up for Shaolin Fantastic
[Verse 6]
I'm Dizzee the man, the high exalted
With my spray paint can I ball iron horses
They told me I was young and lawless
Now everybody gonna see how fly my art is
I'm like Van Gogh, I rock the Kangol
With the S-O-U-T-H Bronx flow
Get Down Brothers and you know we fresh
Ra-Ra grab the mic 'cause I'm outta breath
[Verse 7]
You rock the Kangol, I rock the Jordache
Show me where's the money, I'ma get that fast
I'm in a limousine, you got a bus pass
You keep the weird tech, I'm 'bout to go gas
Like a lawyer or doctor
'Cause I'm always a watcher
On the stage I'm a shocker
And on the mic I'm a rocker
See I'm not an imposter
They call my Ra-Ra, I'm hotter
Than sun ray, MC Boo ándele
[Verse 8]
G Y, some say I'm before my time
War chief for my clan, New York is mine
I might not be the tallest guy
But when females look inside my eyes
They stop, they stare, they hypnotized
Caught the Boo-Boo flu, they fever's high
Like the Jackson Five I'm like Michael in the front
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba, ba, ba
[Verse 9]
Yeah, I can hear God answering me
It's been so hard looking at my family tree
It coulda been so beautiful, funkanologist
Knew we didn't need no colleges
We are just half-black and Puerto Ricans
I started thinking, I need to be where party people keep freaking
My brother Shaolin, you know we bonded for life
Five of us brothers till they turn out the lights
[Verse 10]
Till we turn out the lights
Until they turn out the lights
'Cause we did it from the Bronx and the projects
We are like real life survivors
Everybody out there say, yeah
Everybody put your hands in the air
Get Down Brothers, forever, we swear
'Cause we are as, as one
[Verse 11]
We had to break the locks
We fought our way up to the top
We had to break the locks
We fought our way up to the top
We had to break the locks
We fought our way up to the top
[Verse 12]
You can't, can't, can't stop us
You can't, can't, can't stop us
You can't, can't, can't stop us
[Verse 13]
We're here, we're in, we're here forever
We're here forever
We're here forever
We're here forever
We're here forever
[Verse 14]
You want the Get Down, Get Down Brothers
Want the Get Down, Get Down Brothers
Want the Get Down, Get Down Brothers
Want the Get Down, Get Down Brothers
Want the Get Down, Get Down Brothers
Yeah
[Verse 15]
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, everybody say get down
(Get down) Say get down
Get down, Say get down brothers
Get down brothers, say get down brothers
Get down brothers
Yo, if you from the south Bronx
And you love the get down brothers
Make some mother fuckin' noise
Ladies we can't hear you
