The low down pants

The low down pants

So you wearing your pants down low
Are you sure that is what you want to show?

Rebellion in your heart will bring you down
Everybody seeing your business all around town

Making your mama and papa shame of you
Are you sure that is what you want to do?

You know what they say about men on the down low
Maybe you forgot to pull up your pants or do you want to let it show?

Every style you jumping into
Boy the girls saying you want them to pimp you

What are you representing to the world around you?
Rebellion, vagrancy, dependency, or just something to do?

You can’t even walk right in that pants ten sizes too big for you
You got to hold it up with one hand all the time before it hit your shoe

Boy if the police running you down what are you going to do?
Better drop that pants on the floor before you trip you fool!
Even a little kid has more sense that you!

Hope you got this message I am trying to relate to you
Cause if you do more POWER to you

to add to my previous post. i am not degrading gays in any way. i am a lover of all of God's creations. prison is where the style began so those who wear their pants that way are either ex-cons or ready and willing for same-sex interaction.

I truly cannot stand it. How can an individual leave home like that thinking he or she - would be appealing to anyoner is beyond my comprehension. Do they know the style began in prison where men advertised they were 'available' for sex?

@ktrini, They think they looking good! It is the worse style they have ever come up with and to think it came of of prison. Everyone who is following that style is representing the homosexual jailbirds. That's whats up!
