Ryan Leslie - Ups & Downs Lyrics
I wish I could change the minds that decidedThat I shouldn’t be knighted as a modern day PrinceIt only makes sense, playing every instrumentAll the money I spent doing shows with the bandEverybody was saying that IShould have kept the show money put it in my pocketBut I wanted to show you the way I really rock itThat real music, that real emotionThem 80?s synths – that Billy OceanThere’ll be sad songs, maybe they make you cryMaybe they give you a reason why you should date a guyOr maybe a reason why you should break it offOr maybe the moment when you should take it offGirl, girl – I’ll do it, I’ll do itThat kissing, that FrenchI’m fluent, I’m fluentI got your mind open on that music, that musicLovin’ the way you movin’ when we doin’ what we doin’ now!Up, down, round and roundI can work your body thru all your ups & downsI’ll show you howWe can make it last thru all our ups & downsYea – you don’t even knowI’ma make your body feel all those ups & downsGood, good, baby‘Cause ain’t no way to get around ups & downsLate nights, no sleepIf I ain’t on my hustle then I won’t eatDreamin’ big, just wanna live goodDo it for the homies in my old hoodMusic banging thru the windows they ain’t call the copsShowed up at the Virgin when my album droppedI do it for my Sister, for my Mom and PopI used to be homeless behind a barber shopI wrote some sad songs, maybe they made you cryMaybe they gave you a reason why you should date a guyOr maybe the reason why you should break it offOr maybe the moment when you should take it offGirl, girl – I’ll do it, I’ll do itThat kissing, that FrenchI’m fluent, I’m fluentIf I don’t take you with me then I’m ruined, I’m ruinedLovin’ the way you movin’ when we doin’ what we doin’ right!Up, down, round and roundI can work your body thru all your ups & downsI’ll show you howWe can make it last thru all our ups & downsYea – you don’t even knowI’ma make your body feel all those ups & downsGood, good, baby‘Cause ain’t no way to get around ups & downsAnd I swear that I’ma hold you down(I’ll do it thru the ups & downs)And when your world is spinning round and round(I’ll do it thru the ups & downs)And when you feel like you’re about to drown(I’ll do it thru the ups & downs)I’ll do it thru the ups & downs, downsYeahUp, down, round and roundI can work your body thru all your ups & downsI’ll show you howWe can make it last thru all our ups & downsYea – you don’t even knowI’ma make your body feel all those ups & downsGood, good, baby‘Cause ain’t no way to get around ups & downs
