Deeper (Unreleased Version 2) Lyrics by DMX

1996

[Intro]
Final call, baby
Yeah
It's deep
Only real niggas gon' be able to understand what I'm sayin'
Ya know what I mean baby

[Verse 1]
Niggas is scared to fuck with the dog cause I'm shady
You remember that kid from runnin up and down from Buildin 80?
The highs are extreme and the lows are suicidal
Got me reachin for the Bible cause I, think I'm genocidal
Faggots think I'm bluffin but I'm not
They say that I be buggin cause I be makin it hot
Knowin all I got is my, is nuts and my word
Though I'm never seen, the dark is always heard
I speak for those who speak with Glocks through frequent blocks
Where the objectivе is to put in twelve, stay alive and lеave with knots
From little rocks bein sold
Then motherfucker, if you LIVE to see 40 then you old
And me bein the way I am, got the devil close to me
And that's the reason why I'm not where I'm supposed to be
I chose to be, on some dark shit
Rip apart shit and start shit until whenever I depart bitch
That hard shit, will get yo' ass stretched
Laid the fuck out
I'm on the edge, life is played out
I made out, kinda good with my last couple of runs
Up the, coast with a couple of keys, couple of guns
Funds wasn't the issue, it was other shit
That had me on some flippin on my brother shit, stealin from my mother shit
Cried by myself and couldn't hide from myself
And if I pushed my wig then I died by myself
Cause it gets

[Chorus 2X: DMX - singing]
Deeper and deeper
With every move I make I'm fallin
Deeper and deeper
These souls from underground keep callin

[Verse 2]
Why is it that I do what I do?
Why is it that only to these streets can I be true?
I ain't never been shit, my peoples been told me so
Hold me yo; these niggas don't know me yo!
Cause they ain't out that mob that's out to get niggas
Rip niggas, hit niggas when you split niggas
Long as there's bodies to be caught, there's shotties to be bought
Hotties that transport, fake Gotti's to extort
I cry for help but niggas don't, hear me
Niggas don't understand me! that's why niggas fear me
Hit the old neighborhood cause I'm bout to end it
Stressin shit that I went through and what I been did
Niggas I offended, will have to take it as a loss
Cause in a minute, what I'm thinkin is about to look like sauce
Gots to pay the cost and this time it's gon' cost me my life
One love to my shorty and my wife
Step to the ledge now would I, could I, should I?
Don't really understand what I'm seein' with my good eye
The hood I, came up in showed no mercy
Unforgiven are the many plagues that cursed me
The worst we went through would make the average man crumble
Learnin to walk, and it hurts when you stumble
Figure out the jungle where you live, if not you die
On my knees, hands up to the sky, why

[Chorus 2X: DMX - singing]
Deeper and deeper
With every move I make I'm fallin
Deeper and deeper
These souls from underground keep calling

[Verse 3]
What must I go through to show you shit is real?
And I ain't really never gave a fuck how niggas feel
I rob and I steal, not 'cause I want to, 'cause I have to
And don't make me show you what the MAC do
If you don't know by now, then you slippin'
I'm on some bullshit that's got me jackin' niggas flippin'
I Let my man and them stay pretty, but I'ma stay shitty
Cruddy, it's all for the money, is you with me?
Get the bitches and I'll commit the crime
But when it's on, we transform like Optimus Prime
I'll form the head, roll out, let's make it happen
If we ain't gonna get it with this, we'll take your cap
Bustin' off, dustin' off the softest niggas
Money with the biggest mouth, yo, let's off this nigga
Up north, this nigga never made a sound
Breathe too fuckin' hard and you're gettin' bust down
Cause it gets

[Outro]
Aight
Its real baby
Black on the 1 and 2
Steve Black on the 1 and 2
