What Goes Up Must Come Down

[Intro: Monday Michiru]
(Ooooh)

[Chorus: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
What goes up, must come down
What goes around also comes back around
I said what goes up, must come down
What goes around, comes back around

What goes up, must come down (What goes up, comes down)
What goes around also comes back around (What goes up, comes down)
I said what goes up, must come down (What goes up, comes down)
(What goes up comes down)

[Verse 1: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
The sky doesn't seem to stop changing
The Earth doesn't seem to stop turning
The rhythm takes me through time and space
Inspiring me, telling me to rock the place

Time just doesn't stop movin' on
As I hear my alarm clock goin' off
It's time to get up, I got no time to waste
Gotta go to work, put my paper 'round my waste (Oooh)

My rhymes express sadness, sometimes madness
Every single color from this world, though I steadied as the clouds flowed on
Here comes the sunset
The winter's comin' soon, another finger in the casket

It don't stop, it don't stop, sometimes I get dizzy (Ohh)
The world don't give a damn about me goin' crazy
I do what I can just to get by (Ohh)
Gotta be all I can be before I die
(Before I die)

[Chorus: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
What goes up, must come down
What goes around also comes back around
I said what goes up, must come down (What goes up)
What goes around, comes back around (Must come down)

What goes up, must come down
What goes around also comes back around
I said what goes up, must come down (What goes up)
(Must come down)

[Verse 2: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
Many different feelings, many different moods
Sometimes it's all bad, sometimes it's all good
Sometimes I feel the funk, sometimes I am the funk
Sometimes you're feelin' great, sometimes you wanna jump

The rhythm's in my mind night and day (Mmm-hmm)
I gotta keep up with the tempo that's runnin' away (Mmm-hmm)
Time goes by and nothin' is really still (Mmm-hmm)
Today I'm bein' smooth, tomorrow I'm gettin' hail (Mmm-hmm)

You know the deal, but the next day you don't
They'll try to front, you're fakin' the funk
My little brother's in the streets and he ain't runnin'
But who knows, soon the cops might just harass him (Ohh)

It's hard to trust people nowadays
You trust one, and then he comes back with a gun
I'll do what I can just to get by
I gotta be all I can be before I die

[Chorus: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
What goes up, must come down (No, don't die, don't die, don't die)
What goes around also comes back around
I said what goes up, must come down
What goes around, comes back around

What goes up, must come down
What goes around also comes back around (Goes down, down, down)
I said what goes up, must come down
What goes around, comes back around
(What goes up, comes down)

[Verse 3: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
The rivers of blood don't stop flowin'
Gotta keep my head clear so I can keep goin'
I rhyme about the past, I rhyme about the future
Never call me preacher, and don't ya call me teacher

I kick mad rhymes 'cause it's just what I feel
As time goes by, I perfect my skills
I do what I can just to get by
Gotta be all I can be before I die

[Chorus: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
What goes up, must come down
What goes around also comes back around (Mmm-hmm)
I said what goes up, must come down (Mmm-hmm)
What goes around, comes back around (Mmm-hmm)

What goes up, must come down (What goes up)
What goes around also comes back around (Must come down)
I said what goes up, must come down (Ohhhhh)
(Comes down, never come)

What goes up comes down
What goes down never goes up

[Verse 4: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
It's 1995 and it's hard to stay alive
Not only physically but mentally, it's hard to see
You gotta be more than powerful, you gotta stay awake
'Cause you don't know when you're gonna meet the next neck that could break

And it's too late, so be careful
You play with someone, then you be playful
'Cause like a boomerang things just come and go
If you try to move too fast, then you'll be movin' too slow
I do what I can before I die
I gotta be all I can be before I die

Just to get by, I gotta do what I can before I die (Oh-oh-oh oh-oh)
I gotta do what I can, just to get by (Oh-oh-oh oh-oh)
I gotta do all I can just to get by (Oh-oh-oh oh-oh)
Before I die

[Chorus: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
What goes up, must come down
What goes around, comes back around
(Around, around, around)
What goes up, must come down
What goes around also comes back around

[Post-Chorus: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
I said what goes up, what goes up, must come down
(Round and round and round)
Yo
(And round and round and round)
What goes up, what goes up, must come down
(And round and round and round and round)
Right to the left

[Outro: B-BANDJ & Monday Michiru]
What goes out
(And round and round and round)
It's all the same
Know what I'm sayin'? It's like that
Yo
Cars be goin' and comin' back, now you know what I'm sayin'?
It's all goin' 'round, the Earth is goin' round, you know what I'm sayin'?
(Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh)
Neighborhood's goin' round, people makin' the world go 'round
It's like that, y'all, y'know what I'm sayin'? (What goes up, comes down)
Y'all keep changin', you just keep changin'
But you know what I'm sayin'? You gotta keep your head down, y'all
Just like that, to the beat
Yeah (Watch that beat)
What does up must come down
Because it's like that, it's been like that, and it'll always be like that
The universal (Bap-bap)
What goes up, must come down
What goes around, comes back around
