Snoop Dogg - Get U Down Lyrics

(warren g)
This song is dedicated to all my people who's [that was]
Caught up in hurricane katrina
Louisiana, mississippi, alabama
We ridin' wit'ch y'all. u know what I'm sayin'
I feel your pain, we gonna make it through this y'all
Yeah. come on

We here today then gone tomorrow's
Got me singin' a marvin gaye song
And make me want to holla so I hop
N my impala just to cruise, shake my blues off
Hard to follow, hard to swallow
What they sayin' on the news. good lord
It's a crazy world, watchin' cops puttin' cuffs on a fie [five]
Year old girl. racism, racism got our babies in the system
Mom and daddy's in the prison, that's intentional division
They don't want to saw you
Now they keep the family divided. keep it gangsta keep
It real, that's all I hear, but I don't buy
When it's revolution time, all these fools will keep quiet like
"shh! " you can you can hear a pen drop
Can go to one tent cuz I might get popped
People shootin' on the freeway, when will it stop?
But stay strong
Cuz the rain don't last and push the... price of gas

(chorus)
Don't let no one, no one get u down
Cuz if they do, if they do, I'll be around

(ice cube)
Why the black and the brown got tah fight in the pen?
The black and the brown, they squabin' again
The sheriff is laughing again. it all stinks
Keep yo' ass out the wind. see the black and the brown
We can share the same land, when I was a slave
Where the hell did I ran? california man
It was full of mexicans. look mo passas
This is they casa. just kick back and enjoy the sunshine
Live your live, stay away from one time
Get your money man, find the lunch line
This ain't a joke homie, where's the punch line?
The ghetto was a trap, homie take the cheese
Soon as you do it here come the police
Is designed fo' us to fail
Homie don't you end up dead or in jail!

(chorus)
Don't let no one, no one get u down. cuz if they do
If they do, I'll be around

(b-real)
What's really good? wus really hood? wus really goin' on?
Open your eyes and ears wide. wipin' all your tears
From all the lies and fears. people get blinded here
Let me define it clear. you gotta cross the bad
Tell us the thoughts and prayers someone you getting lost
Homie the cost ain't fair

(snoop dogg)
I try to do right, I don't wanna do wrong
I'm doing better things I wanna live long
Ain't there too many fools out there harder than me
I love football so much man I started a league
Oh what a pity, it's made for the inner-city
It used to be dark, but now the parks real pretty
Little boys outside throwing footballs
In tha hood y'all. hey snoop dogg, how could y'all
Let 'em pass instead of blast the foot ball field is a class
And I'm the teacher, teachin' my lesson
Shotgun information no smith and no wesson
The haters keep stressin', and everybody wanna ask me
The question. hey boss dogg, how u feel now
U helping out the kids and they still hatin' on you, wow!

(outro)
[warren g]
U know what I am sayin'?
There a lot going on this world. but we gotta keep pushin'
And movin' improvin'. yeah
Even though we got these hard times
We still gotta keep in steady u know, keep pushin'
So I want y'all tah ride wit' me and cha cha tah this
Come on. dedicated to my people out there strugglin'
Single parents, 9 to 5, steady hustlin'
College students workin' hard to be somethin'
Anybody makin' somethin' outta nothin'
Dedicated tah my people on lock-down
To everybody lost somebody wish they still around
To all the solders fightin' for us on foreign ground
To one and all, turn the frowns upside-down!

(chorus)
Don't let no one, no one get u down. cuz if they do
If they do, I'll be around

[fades out]
