Ryan Leslie - Ups and Downs [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I wish I could change the minds that decided
That I shouldn't be knighted
As a modern day prince
It only makes sense
Playing every instrument
All the money I spent
Doin' shows with the band
Everybody was sayin'
That I
Should've kept the show money
Put it in my pocket
But I wanted to show you the way I really rock it
That real music
That real emotion
Them 80's synths
That Billy Ocean
There'll be sad songs
Maybe they make you cry
Maybe they give you reason why you should date a guy
Or maybe a reason why you should break it off
Or maybe the moment when you should take it off
Girl, girl
I do it, I do it
That kissin'
That French
I'm fluent, I'm fluent
I got your mind open on that music, that music
Lovin' the way you movin', when we doin', what we doin' now..

[Chorus]
Up, down
Round and round
I can work your body through all your
Ups and Downs
I'll show you how
We can make it last through all our
Ups and Downs
Yeah, you don't even know
I'mma make your body feel all those
Ups and Downs
Good, good baby
Cause ain't no way to get around
Ups and Downs

Late nights
No sleep
If I ain't on my hustle then I won't eat
Dreamin' big
Just wanna live good
I do it for the homies in my old hood
Music banging through the windows they ain't called the cops
Showed up at the virgin when my album dropped
I do it for my sister, for my mom and pop
I used to be homeless behind a barber shop
I wrote some sad songs
Maybe they made you cry
Maybe they gave you a reason why you should date a guy
Or maybe the reason why you should break it off
Or maybe the moment when you should take it off
Girl, girl
I do it, I do it
That kissin'
That French
I'm fluent, I'm fluent
If I don't take you with me then I'm ruined, I'm ruined
Lovin' the way you movin', when we doin', what we doin' right..

[Chorus]

And I swear that I'mma hold you down
I do it through the ups and downs
And when your world is spinnin' round and round
I do it through the ups and downs
And when you feel like you about to drown
I do it through the ups and downs
I do it through the ups and downs down..

[Chorus x2]
