 Onyx featuring DMX
 
 
 
 [Hook:]
 
 Shut 'em down
 
 Shut 'em down
 
 Shut 'em down [x4]
 
 
 
 [Verse 1:]
 
 
 
 Yo shut 'em down start the violence
 
 We wilin' wilin' sling back his body found
 
 Washed up on Coney Island
 
 When I rolled up, this niggas heart slowed up
 
 That killa froze up, when I pulled up jumped out with the pump-pump
 
 Thirty-two shots and ducked out
 
 So look out
 
 Left that cat for dead his body smoked out
 
 Cause when I fall y'all killas a kill me kid
 
 I'm goin' all out
 
 Lifes a bitch, fuck it, got the gun bust it
 
 Gmae play, gotta play by the rules or your own cannot be trusted
 
 Don't try to test, abide your chest, put five inside your vest
 
 Have you layin' with a dead rest
 
 Shoulda known when you was lookin' in the eyes a death
 
 And I swore forgiveness when I did this
 
 there was not no witness but he should understand
 
 Cause even God got a shit list
 
 
 
 [Verse 2:]
 
 Beat downs anonymous
 
 I spit like a shiny silver nanabus(?)
 
 Niggas fond of us
 
 We the kind that rush, those that hold back
 
 Takin' your whole stack
 
 Grimy street cats
 
 Niggas bald head like Kojak
 
 Go gat for gat
 
 Coat that
 
 You could smoke that
 
 Or cut black dust
 
 Makin' your whole fuckin' stove crack
 
 Betta know me
 
 1-3, one and only could be never phoney in any ceremony
 
 I'l tear you homey
 
 Shut 'em down, Shut 'em down, Shut 'em down
 
 Shun sees takin' your time
 
 Makin' your mind
 
 Got this nigga on the low
 
 defecatin' with rhymes
 
 Breakin' your spine
 
 Got you movin' from the flurry, time to worry
 
 I'ma bury the bullshit
 
 I'ma bury the bullshit
 
 I'ma bury the bullshit
 
 Feel my full clip
 
 
 
 [Hook]
 
 
 
 [Verse 3: DMX]
 
 Aiyyo I bet you this muthafuckin' double barrel will blast his face
 
 Be on the look out for a basket case
 
 Niggas pumped you up to watch you get beat
 
 Had you thinkin' shits sweet
 
 Now you up shit's creek
 
 Cause your shits weak
 
 How mich is your life worth to someone important
 
 Cause I be extortin'
 
 Kidnap for ransom is some shit you don't want to get caught in
 
 From back in the days of Gordon
 
 Niggas was gettin' robbed
 
 The guy from Rikers Height stayed on his job
 
 with his own little mob
 
 Was it worth goin back to the Earth so soon
 
 Worth makin' my shit go boom
 
 To your own doom, from the graveyards
 
 Till there's no room
 
 Fuck you know about a pine box
 
 Money goin' out with nine Glocks
 
 On top of that same nigga when they pull with they nine shots
 
 Feel like killin' for your crew
 
 I ain't gon' rest
 
 It gonna take a whole lot to put up your best
 
 Then watch your loins spill out your vest
 
 You best get on some act your age shit
 
 you a little kid
 
 That run for faces
 
 More niggas get killed like that
 
 
 
 [Verse 4: Sticky Fingaz]
 
 
 
 Mad man Sticky F-I-N-G-A-Z
 
 The crazy cajun blazin' bullets for days and days
 
 grazin' amazin' I'm the glazin' ason purple hazin'
 
 Hard to be pahsin' Lord with all this hell I'm raisin'
 
 God of the Underground, I'm gunnin' 'em down with a thunder pound
 
 We gonna shut 'em down
 
 We turn we gonna shut 'em down
 
 We turn we gonna shut 'em down
 
 We turn shit dumb quick gun click
 
 lyin' in the vine
 
 persed the line on your dick
 
 In the morgue admit it dogs
 
 I'm the Rottweiler my Glock holler
 
 Fuck cocaine killer I sniff gun powder
 
 So all you real willies throw your Roleys in the sky
 
 And all the crooks rob the place outside
 
 I'm so hype, I tkae your life, betta have my doe right
 
 Fuck my life, I don't need no mic!
 
 
 
 The new album
 
 Bring it
 
 Motherfuckin' May
 
 
 
 [Hook x2]
 
 
 
 That's that shit
 
 
 
 Bring me on point
 
 About to shut down the whole industry
 
 Official nasty
 
 DMX
 
 We wreckin' everything
 
 
 
 So shut up, or you get shut down like the rest of them
