You Ain't Down Lyrics - I Wish - Skee-lo

For one price, for one price, for one price 

In the whole history of man, in the whole history of man 

In the whole history of man 

All the people on this earth are joined by 

I don't need your sympathy, your misery is drivin' me insane 

You got your hands out but I refrain 

From givin' you a pound you bloody hound 

You better take heed to 'cuz I don't need you to hang around 

Now you wasn't cool ever since back when I got jumped 

You played the punk and ran a sprint 

See one of us is trippin' but I was just concerned 

At the time I lost my wallet and you found it 

Stole my money, then returned it 

You used to claim in front of people we were next of kin 

I never knew that you were sleepin' with my girlfriend 

And if I did I would've bashed you, maybe thrashed you 

I never asked you homie, tell me is it true 

Because I knew you were up to no good 

Spreadin' rumors on me in the neighborhood 

Yeah, so let me bring this to my point 

We ain't friends, we ain't homies and we never shared a joint 

So you ain't down 

(You ain't down) 

I don't need your sympathy 

Your simple case of misery has caused me pain 

(You ain't down with me no more) 

Yeah, you ain't down 

(You ain't down) 

I don't need your misery 

'Cuz mamma said what goes around comes back again 

(You ain't down with me no more) 

(You ain't down) 

I remember girls in college who was never ever 

Among these beautiful women was my favorite name Venetta 

Pain, love and agony, she's all of the above 

I keep thinkin' to myself, "Oh, I don't wanna fall in love" 

But oh, Venetta, I read your letter 

And it gets better as I read on down the lines but in my mind 

I cannot find out why you wanna diss me 

Getting me to fall in love with you 

And just to say you can't be with me 

(You ain't down) 

You're messin' with my head and although it seems 

Your heart is darker than the night 

So I'm prepared to use my high beams 

You had me doin' things silly things 

Sharin' with you my feelings and in the meantime you was killin' 

Me softly, hey, women, get off me, you know you lost me 

Hey, that's what you get for actin' flossy 

You caused me to open up my eyes and look around 

I see that we ain't friends, we ain't lovers, we ain't homies, baby 

You ain't down 

(You ain't down) 

I don't need your sympathy 

Your simple case of misery has caused me pain 

(You ain't down with me no more) 

Yeah, you ain't down 

(You ain't down) 

I don't need your misery 

'Cuz mamma said what goes around comes back again 

(You ain't down with me no more) 

(You ain't down) 

(You ain't down) 

I don't need your sympathy 

Your simple case of misery has caused me pain 

(You ain't down with me no more) 

Yeah, you ain't down 

(You ain't down) 

I don't need your misery 

'Cuz mamma said what goes around comes back again 

(You ain't down with me no more) 

This is dedicated to the kids who ain't crew 

You ain't never been down so homie ain't no pounds for you 

You'll never know me so don't you try to show me 

We can be friends you can now but somehow you did back then 

Just to be down with me you don't need a change of heart 

Just change your life and your identity 

'Cuz everybody's on my jock tryin' to flag me down 

When I come around the block 

It's all the same, the only thing that's changed is 

You used to call me puff but now you call me by name 

You and your friends get no love, sympathy or pain 

If I gave you the chance then you would diss me again 

Is it fortune and fame that you persist to be around? 

I don't wanna see a smile I don't wanna see a frown 

So now you know that's how it was and that's how it is 

By the way stay out of my biz 'cuz homie you ain't down 

(You ain't down) 

I don't need your sympathy 

Your simple case of misery has caused me pain 

(You ain't down with me no more) 

Yeah, you ain't down 

(You ain't down) 

I don't need your misery 

'Cuz mamma said what goes around comes back again 

(You ain't down with me no more) 

(You ain't down) 

(You ain't down) 

I don't need your sympathy 

Your simple case of misery has caused me pain 

(You ain't down with me no more) 

Yeah, you ain't down 

(You ain't down) 

I don't need your misery 

'Cuz mamma said what goes around comes back again 

(You ain't down with me no more) 

(You ain't down with me) 

You ain't down with me 

You ain't down with me
