Lyrics Down For The Cause - Hilltop Hoods

If someone you knows just talking to the wall all day
Don't be afraid it probably means they went out and bought my tape
'Cause all it takes is these specially chopped 'erbals
And I can rhyme in a language that translates crop circles
I'm controversial 'cause I contest commercial rapper act
As they're throwin' bottle's while they rollin' in their convertible
Don't take it personal, I was born to burn you whore
With words so Beserk I'm forced to stay disguised like Serpico the crime watcher
That's right I watch crimes and laugh and take my half of the profits after watching for cop cars
I can't co-operate, only operate
Chase promoter's for dough they owe us and take what's in their bank

(People, people wanna see me get busy, 'cause I'm
Very, very dope and I'm freaking the funky line
(People, people wanna see me get busy, 'cause I'm
Very, very dope and I'm freaking the funky line)

I'm down for the cause like suicide bombers, I made a life promise
Pushing underground through city night commerce
It suddenly spread through these southernly treads
I got a beautiful mind it's just stuck in an ugly head I'm
Stunning with skill while some are run of the mill
We coming real, we're from Adelaide, one in a mill
This underground's broke by any means, we ain't getting cream
Sweat the scene, I'll burn you never been like oxy acetylene
The larger a fool's ego the harder they fall
So I drink 'til I can hardly recall the party at all
I've had enough, while they're acting tough I'm acting up
I don't put MC's under pressure I ain't into all that faggot stuff
This rhyme addictions so bad I'm a go mad
And stick up MC's for their thoughts and add 'em to my vocab
If life's a bitch then death's a slut
'Cause death comes for everyone
And when it's you turn your FUCKED!

(People, people wanna see me get busy, 'cause I'm
Very, very dope and I'm freaking the funky line
(People, people wanna see me get busy, 'cause I'm
Very, very dope and I'm freaking the funky line

I think I finally lost the plot, let's have a round of applause
I'm down for the cause
I'm moving mountains, bouncing off walls
R.I.P countless cordless's
Confuse counsellors, talking shit
Forced to spit from now until I'm on stage with walking sticks
Depicted a portrait of a anti corporate kid
Scared rappers get court orders against such rawness
I'm mad for life, in the club hand me the mic
I kick one verse and get myself banned for life (yeah)
If these hecklers dissin' when I'm standing on stage
I'm a call you out and show the true meaning of crowd participation
Rolling down the street I just slapped the shit of a groupie
And distract store managers
While I'm stealing liquor and movies
Forever broke, no job, nowhere left to go
Jerry Springer comes on and I've already seen the episode
That's when you know you're really unemployed
Brain destroyed, step in to Centrelink and you see all your fuckin' boys (hey)

(People, people wanna see me get busy, 'cause I'm
Very, very dope and I'm freaking the funky line)
(People, people wanna see me get busy, 'cause I'm
Very, very dope and I'm freaking the funky line)

MC's claim they're moving units (they serious?)
That's not the fact though
The fact is, you couldn't sell a burger to Fat Joe
Think your all of that (no), you'll be falling back bro
Jack lives here, you call him Jack
I call him fat so
I pack shows, slap foes like bitter defacto's
Step on this mic, I'll end your life like tobacco
My style's more fatal
Than second hand medicine
I even bomb veteran's
Hip hop connects this world like Thomas Edison
Through letterin' and underground peddlin'
I get these kids open like
Lungs on Ventolin
Presenting them with controversy like Jello Biafra
I'm Down For The cause, protect these artists like we're A.P.R.A
Like cats on Viagra, I could serve you all night
Call me the customer (why's that?)
'Cause I'm always right
And I'm always mad tight, like rich people with funds
And the styles more deadly than sharing needles with bums, it goes

(People, people wanna see me get busy, 'cause I'm
Very, very dope and I'm freaking the funky line,)
People, people wanna see me get busy, 'cause I'm
Very, very dope and I'm freaking the funky line)
