RBGs, RBGs, Nigga it's dat RBGs 
RBGs, RBGs, Nigga it's dat RBGsTell me are you down? when it's goin down 
You got to hold it down, don't talk it hold it down 
Tell me are you down? when it's goin down 
You got to hold it down, when it's goin downHave you ever had a lesson from a OG? 
From a nigga that's been in the war 
Been locked up longer than I been on the earth 
And his crime is defendin the poor 
And they can tell you bout death, tell you bout life 
But most of all they tell you bout sacrifice 
And they can tell if a woman aint with you when you down 
cuz she never really could be your wife 
What it mean to be D-O-W-N? 
Is ya homies still down when it's trouble you in? 
You wanna have a good time make it hot when the pigs come down on the block 
Would they fuck wit you then? 
Now you wanna get high wit me, organize wit me 
Start a clothes drive then maybe we can start a fire 
Where my RBGs? My guerillas wit a G-U-E 
Don't got a I-Ching homey get free 
Rule number 1: When we ride we follow the plan 
There's a role for every man 
With a chain of command even when the shit hit the fan 
Anything get outta hand we still stand 
To me bein down mean more than bein friends, or kin 
We comrades and struggle through any trouble 
Sacrifice my life in combat for ya 
So you know I gotta love ya, 
I'm down for my brothas and sistas, 
Fuck the system, bust ya pistols, nigga I'm with ya 
Just put a rag on ya face when you ride 
You don't want them satellites to take ya picture 
We gotta have a lot of discipline and it comes from within 
It's not somethin you pretend, homey 
A lot of niggas be talkin that shit 
When it really goes down they be gone with the wind, homey 
Can't be no coward, gotta get this power by any means 
Gotta know yaself and ya enemy when you puttin it down for ya family 
Can't tell by no tattoo, can't tell by no handshake 
It starts with the heart, bein down is an attitude 
Doin' what you gotta do, for the crew's sake 
My definition of a soulja, a Revolutionary, Military Minded, 
And ready for whatever, nigga 
Hope for the best and prepare for the worst 
Stay aware, be alert bomb first, no tear(?) 
Tell me are you down? when it's goin down 
You got to hold it down, don't talk it hold it down 
Homey tell me are you down? when it's goin down 
You got to hold it down, don't talk it hold it

D.O.W.N. - Dead Prez Lyrics

RBGs, RBGs, Nigga it's dat RBGs
RBGs, RBGs, Nigga it's dat RBGsTell me are you down? when it's goin down
You got to hold it down, don't talk it hold it down
Tell me are you down? when it's goin down
You got to hold it down, when it's goin downHave you ever had a lesson from a OG?
From a nigga that's been in the war
Been locked up longer than I been on the earth
And his crime is defendin the poor
And they can tell you bout death, tell you bout life
But most of all they tell you bout sacrifice
And they can tell if a woman aint with you when you down
cuz she never really could be your wife
What it mean to be D-O-W-N?
Is ya homies still down when it's trouble you in?
You wanna have a good time make it hot when the pigs come down on the block
Would they fuck wit you then?
Now you wanna get high wit me, organize wit me
Start a clothes drive then maybe we can start a fire
Where my RBGs? My guerillas wit a G-U-E
Don't got a I-Ching homey get free
