  • Shad: I Get Down from the album When This Is Over, pick it up
    V-1
    Big ups to 91.5 live from cold k-dub
    Just reminding all my guys in the world to stay up
    Never had to spray slugs so I dont play thug
    Or try to fit with the killers like O.J.s glove
    Still cats love to see me like their own pay stubs
    Out to create buzz
    know that s.k. can shake clubs
    like car thieves or golfers
    crazy compulsive
    cold killer so ill
    Im giving competition ulcers
    Fierce frenetic poetic pierce the pathetic plagues
    My powerful prophetic poetics penetrate
    This renegade relic raps rugged and demonstrates
    How to scoop honnies with nothing but that angelic face
    Aesthetic-based waste get shredded, I set it straight
    For the hapless half-wit homies that hesitate
    The hellagreat, elevated skills you celebrate
    Practice??? Kid ive been this ill since seventh-grade
    I dedicate this to my sis and the crew
    Thanks for coming out but the competition is through
    I get down
    V-2
    All the suckas and frauds with soft stamina dont trouble me
    Duck or Ill damage ya on camera publicly
    When I utter these subtleties
    Brother please
    Im the biggest thing out of Canada since Pamelas double-ds
    Colleagues and critics all apply the accolades
    To apply describe how my flyness fascinates
    I activate the part of me
    That advocates the artistry
    The slick, sharp tongue
    That would lacerate your arteries
    Like an axe to the heart
    Hackin apart cats lackin the smarts
    Cuz Ive mastered the art
    I synchronize my syndicate
    For rhyme syncopation
    Even skits that I improvise
    Sit in syndication
    Let my sinful syntax and simple grin flash
    cause dimes fall victim when my dimples impact
    Cats listen close for quotes or vibe to it
    I school dudes and make guys students of my music
    The dumb sound dopest with their mic lines muted
    While my iq is so high you couldnt fly to it
    I get down
    V-3
    My language is used
    To bruise and stick damages to
    Other bands and their crews
    While all their slick managers do
    Is just bandage their wounds
    This man is just too sick for Canadas amateurs
    I make em dudes do flips like coin tosses
    When I rip mics like loin clothes
    Stripped off a groin
    Join the clik or get going
    Kid your showing softness
    I cross kids like Hot Sauce does
    While imposters talk and jock like Bob Costas
    This colossus is so pompous its preposterous
    Im always jamming like Peter Toshs rastas
    Getting the thoughtless tossed quicker
    Than The Moffats in a mosh pit, homes
    I get down like acrostic poems
    My resources hold more forces
    Than the torque on 400-horse Porsches
    I contort, twist and torch kids
    With my oral orifice
    Til these dorks is nothing more than some scorched corpses
    I get down
    V-4
    Its like Im squeezing a glock
    When I creep in the spot
    People get shot back
    Freeze and then flop, breathe and then stop
    The way I leave em in shock
    Forget radio they play my flow on (Ripleys) Believe it or Not
    But I still dont own the keys to the drop
    Leasin to cop the beach with the yacht and dont forsee reaching the top
    But thats cool cause Im frequently jocked from speaking this talk
    Plus on the streets I get props
    Well before I leave peace to the blocks
    Where my people still beef with the cops
    And get beaten a lot, it needs to get taught
    And ask Kanye, Jesus can walk
    Already reach for the rock, not the heat to get cocked
    Releasing the shot, ending a life
    No need for the pop
    Ya heard? like sheep with the flock
    I get down

    I remember Shad performed this at carleton university back in like 2011.. Not a lot of people knew this song but I was vybin harddd. Once he came through with That "brother please, im the biggest fan out of canada since pamela's double d's" I yelled that out that the same time and he pointed me out in the crowd... Still remember that, legit felt special no cap

      Went to school with him at Fanshawe; I was in radio school so I had him on the show and had a hour interview with him and ray black and mad mak. It was the highlight of my Fanshawe radio school experience and something I will remember for the rest of my life. He was humble and so cool and beck then he hadn’t blown up yet, but we all knew he would. Been a huge fan ever since.

    First time I heard this was back in 2014 in a friend's car while I was super stoned. I remember the melody of this instrumental melting my brain during that time that I just snapped my neck along the beat throughout the track. Then the last verse came in, and the notes were getting higher, I was just getting mindblown at that point.
