Ups & Downs

[Intro]

Another dirty nine-inch dick classic, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Girl, as I sit here thinkin' to myself

There is no one for you but me and I mean that

And I think about all the things we been through

Like arguin' and fightin', for example

You know, the love we have for each other

It tends to outweigh what we do to one another

You know, my granddaddy used to always say

You know, he used to sing it like this

[Chorus]

There will be ups and downs, smiles and frowns

Share with me, fairy tales are make-believe

There will be ups and downs, smiles and frowns

Share with me, fairy tales are make-believe

There will be ups and downs, smiles and frowns

Share with me, fairy tales are make-believe

[Verse 1]

What up, motherfuckers? This is Snoop Dogg

I'm tryin' to figure out how the fuck I'ma do y'all

Hangin' with my homie from the turf, that's young Q-Ball

Givin' me the word on the streets, here's the scoop, y'all

The niggas from Tha Eastsidaz split up (Split up)

And one of 'em tried to fuck your shit up (What?)

Nah cuz, don't believe that, that's my nigga for life

I'm out with the bullshit, I'm in with the real shit

I'm at the church doing work, spittin' game from the pulpit

Now that's the business, and God as my witness

LBC, 213, hell yeah, we in this

It's so relentless and all my dogs up against the life sentence

I love y'all like I love no bitch and that's real shit

On some Crip shit, homie, dig this

[Chorus]

There will be ups and downs, smiles and frowns

Share with me, fairy tales are make-believe

There will be ups and downs, smiles and frowns

Share with me, fairy tales are make-believe

[Verse 2]

I used to have a lot of broads that I don't fool with

I used to have a lot of homeboys I ain't cool with

A lot of people that a nigga went to school with

Happy as hell to see the big dog doin' it

But wouldn't none of them believe it though (What?)

That I would be bigger than Kurtis Blow

I guess he was right, these are the breaks

Despite my mistakes and aches, I'm getting cake

To realize your fate through faith

'Cause we all gon' get that day (For what?)

To see if our life was straight

And see if we'll be able to walk through the pearly gates (Yeah?)

To see the man upstairs

On some real talk, homie, I'm tired of bein' stuck here

If I could, I would fly to the moon (Zoom)

Y'all probably think I'm trippin' off these mushrooms, I know

[Chorus]

There will be ups and downs, smiles and frowns

Share with me, fairy tales are make-believe

There will be ups and downs, smiles and frowns

Share with me, fairy tales are make-believe

There will be ups and downs, smiles and frowns

Share with me, fairy tales are make-believe

There will be ups and downs, smiles and frowns

Share with me, fairy tales are make-believe

[Outro]

Now, as I think back to the words my granddaddy used to say

I never seen him in church, but he always had the word

He always would tell me, "Sometimes you gotta take the good with the bad

You got to do bad in order to do good"
