Skee-lo - Top Of The Stairs Lyrics
(skee-lo)Growin up as a kid tough skins and afrosWasnt south central, but still it came naturalThere wasnt nobody to watch my backDidnt wanna be strapped to get jackedMama taught me not to trust no manBrother whats your plan?If you ever lose a fight, then you go back again and winAnd I dont care if it was one of your friendsYou better bury your feelings withinAnd understand that on top of the stairsThey got keys to catalacs bmws mercedes, benz and all of thatAnd on top of the stairs yeahThey got colour tvs and even girls come in two pairsAnd on the bottom youve got nothin but guiltBad feelings bein kept homies been killedWhen I die always know that I never was see my little brother dropSo you better stay on top(chorus)(skee-lo)Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottomNo one really cares about the guy beneathAnd everybody wants to be down with the dudeOn top of the stairs, top of the stairsCause no one really cares about the guy on the bottomNo one really cares about the guy beneathAnd everybody wants to be down with the dudeOn top of the stairs, top of the stairs(skee-lo)Little brother look around you, cant you seeAll the possibilities and we, you and meTo the bang boogie up jump the boogieTo the boogie to the boogie to the beat, ima emceeI spent three years in mickey ds cleanin dishesHalf of that time was makin wishesWant ya hit switches in a brand new six-foBut all I could afford was another nine and roseaus chicken and wafflesHow bout that honda cordUsed to watch drop by at night till I got boredBut not no more really thats for sureCause I gotta million honeys knockin on my doorAnd Im not tryin to score with oneCause diseases kill and thats illTo make a mill in you gettin doneWhen you on top of the world girls may comeBut when you fall down you wont find one(chorus)(skee-lo)Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottomNo one really cares about the guy beneathAnd everybody wants to be down with the dudeOn top of the stairs, top of the stairsCause no one really cares about the guy on the bottomNo one really cares about the guy beneathAnd everybody wants to be down with the dudeOn top of the stairs, top of the stairs(skee-lo)Little brother this is all we gotMe and you will be cruelEven though it doesnt seem like a lot, it isSo dont be thinkin negativeI know just how you feel when you got time to kill Ill tell you how it isI know you might be unsureCause it gets rough out there and when it rains and poursI stole shoes from stores hung out with cool catsPut cars on flats broke windows with batsAnd thats not all even made prank phone callsI was flossin and sloshin in fox hills mall (so whattup yall? )After all please check my credentialsI once got busy in the whenchles yeahSo throw your hands in the airWave em around if youve been treated unfairYeah cause no one cares (no one cares, no one cares)Top of the stairs (top of the stairs, top of the stairs)(chorus)(skee-lo)Cause no one really cares about the guy on the bottomNo one really cares about the guy beneathAnd everybody wants to be down with the dudeOn top of the stairs, top of the stairsCause no one really cares about the guy on the bottomNo one really cares about the guy beneathAnd everybody wants to be down with the dudeOn top of the stairs, top of the stairsCause no one really cares about the guy on the bottomNo one really cares about the guy beneathAnd everybody wants to be down with the dudeOn top of the stairs, top of the stairsCause no one really cares about the guy on the bottomNo one really cares about the guy beneathAnd everybody wants to be down with the dudeOn top of the stairs, top of the stairs(skee-lo)Yeah to all my little brothers out thereIts cool to be on top, but dont ever forget where you came fromMost importantly you better rememberThe little guy you step on to get on topIs the same guy you gonna run into goin back downYeah top of the stairs
