Paroles :

[Verse 1, Snoop]
It's a whole-nother day, I'm back up in ya
Snoop D-O double G, I representah
Been away for a while but y'all know
I'm still doggystylin on Death Row (you know!)
Got things locked down, sold up
So If you plan on comin out, fool hold up
This a stick up, get up
They got yo shiz on the shelf, oh mine's too
And guess who they gon pick up
Some fools think they know they hit, but they don't
Some M-A's escape, some won't
Bumpin' heads with bustas
Where you from? EastSide, LongBeach, represent 2-1
The homie just got paroled
And he got more stories than the highway patrol
Tellin me about the money Suge Knight stole
But don't let that leak cuz, fool I get swole
I see you're tryin to get in, to get out
Put me up on game tellin me who gon' jack me
But ever since I was a puppy til I was paroled
I never had no other dogg pullin on my phone

Chorus:
Say Snoops Upside Ya head
Say Snoops Upside Ya Head (say what?)
Say Snoops Upside Ya Head
Say Snoops Upside Ya Head
Hold on, what's my name?
Snoop Dogg! Snoop Dogg! (Snoop...) x4

[Verse 2, Snoop]
I see these rappers in this game be doin way too much
Actin tough with this east-west coast stuff
See me, I'm all about my money man
I stay fly and dry
I don't get caught up in the rain
Cuz game (game) recognize game (game)
No matter where you from, we all can get dumb, insane
And turn the party out without a doubt
Unless you them fools who ain't got no clout
LBC and Beware Of My Crew
Cuz uh, we out there stuck on the crazy glue
Upside Ya Head like oops, Snoop's the lick
That you hear them bumpin in the hoops
You can't afford it homeboy, this is finished
I represented from V-A to Venice
So when it's timid and cold outside
Rely on the D-O Dub to put the heat in yo life

Chorus.

Now bounce to this (Snoop Dogg!)
C-walk to this (Snoop Dogg!) Yeah...
Now bounce to this (Snoop Dogg!) Yeah...
C-walk to this (Snoop Dogg!) Yeah...
Yeah...know what...

[Verse 3, Snoop]
It takes a whole lot, to be number one
I can't walk down the street without my gun
I can't trust these fools, Fly, it ain't no fun
I'm sittin' up in court cuz somebody got done
What really counts is how the crowd bounce
Go home and say Snoop rocked the partay
Nobody got killed, it's what got annouced
I guess they got a chance to see Dr. Bombay
But I keep my heat in case brothas get cold
Warm you up with the sheet, zip you up and roll
Now, Doggystyle records is now official
I'm gettin paper out the plizate with my initials
Shippin weapons overseas, I'm makin G's
With who you might call enemies
But I, see nothin funny about makin money
Cuz uh, we all know it don't grow on trees
So I...
Gotta get what I gotta get when I ?shake?
I'm up early in the morning with the homie Nate
Burning rubber down to get a new car
So don't get jealous when you see me in the double R

Chorus.

[Outro, Snoop]
Now just ride to this, uh, bounce to this, uh, C-Walk to this
Uh, Whoo-Ride to this, uh, EastSide to this, uh, WestSide to this
Uh, Whoo-Ride to this uh, get'cha bang up
Yeah, Snoop Dub, baby, yeah, Snoop Dub, baby
Yeah, uh, yeah, Snoop's up, baby, yeah, all up in it
??? ??? ??? ???
DPG playa
Remix!
Soopafly, you can call him ???
Not the trackmaster, but the sackmaster
You know!
Snoops Upside Ya Head, say Snoops Upside Ya Head
Snoops Upside Ya Head, say Snoops Upside Ya Head (Snoop Dogg! Snoop Dogg!)
Snoops Upside Ya Head, say Snoops Upside Ya Head (Snoop Dogg! Snoop Dogg!)
Snoops Upside Ya Head, say Snoops Upside Ya Head (Snoop Dogg! Snoop Dogg!)
Snoops Upside Ya Head, say Snoops Upside Ya Head (Snoop Dogg! Snoop Dogg!)
(Snoop Dogg!)
(Snoop Dogg!)
Can ya have it?
(Snoop Dogg!)
And you all thought we fell off
(Snoop Dogg!)

(Snoop Dogg!)
Takin it back to the hot spot
(Snoop Dogg!)
Gangsta Rap, all day, every day!
(Snoop Dogg!)
G's up, you know the rest
(Snoop Dogg!)
Haha...

[Refrain] x2:
Up jump tha boogie to the bang bang boogie
while you're bangin on ya baby OG's
That's why I flip the script to the boogie bang homey
If I'm hangin it's with DPG


[Snoop Doggy Dogg]
Some do the things that they do cos they dumb
and some do the things that they do for crumbs
I do mine for me ya see?
Not the big homey double O-G
Scared to do your own work, man that's fast
and that's the reason why I had to shoot you down
because you never should've tried to work my Dogg
and the lil homey wouldn't had no reason to bump
Y'all know the game ain't the same no mo'
Lil G's keep heat so big G's freeze, geez!
Johnny Rockafella went to jail-er
few many times too many and became a teller
They sell a nigga dreams if he want em
but they won't sell you the game to get up on em
Ya tryin ta find em cos you want em, they shook out
Get the book out and when the pitch come, nigga look out
it ain't hard to pump up the lil homies nigga
but it's hard for your bitch ass to get wit us
But it's steel, you put it in their head
that at 13 they better off dead (now they gone)

[Refrain]

[Kurupt]
Aiyo Snoop, why would niggas get into the bracket
and make a loot, niggas want trip
Spittin like "you spoke beef from the hood
Show me love nigga or don't show me shit"
Feel the fever, million dollar male like Cole Severs
Made a non-believin man into a believer
Receive a cheque the next day, my homies say
"it's the way to get paid", DP's and pay
I don't know why you wanna get on my back? (why?)
Trippin cos you know the bomb's at where I'm at
Well if that's the case you shoulda roll
wit the PG instead of losing control (motherfucker)
This is how we do, Dogg Pound Gangstas in blue
Me, D-A-Z, N-A-T-E and Snoop
Niggas from Seth be tryin to set you cos you settin your ways
so ask DJ Pooh what pays

[Refrain]

[Snoop Dogg]
Just what we need, bangin on wax another trip
What you gon' do nigga, jack the mothership?
You're like a actor wit another script
Predictable as Rambo wit another clip
How many niggas you gon' kill in your verse?
You need to sit down and learn to get down first
cos, uhh, real hoo-bangers are toast-slangers
not part-time FBI singers
Niggas havin bad intentions, sendin BG's on a mission
One move too many, nigga you missin
Listen you fuck wit the cyco-lic-no
loony ass nigga from your H-doubleO-D
Niggas got too flossy from all the sex they tossin
but guess what it cost em, they crossin me
But before I give a nigga a 9
I'd rather give a nigga a mic and write him a rhyme

[Refrain]

Snoop grandit à Long Beach, au sud de Los Angeles puis entre au lycée polytechnique de la ville où il commence à participer aux concours de rap freestyle.

À l'école, il est « bon élève » et plutôt « discret » d'après ses professeurs, c'est au sein de l'équipe de basket du lycée qu'il semble le plus extraverti. Il obtiendra son diplôme de l'enseignement secondaire. Mais peu de temps après, il a fréquemment des ennuis avec la justice, il se rapproche aussi des Rollin' 20's Crips, le groupe local des Crips, un gang connu et surveillé par le FBI. Pendant les trois années qui suivent, il est régulièrement emprisonné et trouve alors un sens à sa vie en se réfugiant dans la musique.

Snoop Dogg commence alors à enregistrer des cassettes de rap « faites maison » avec son cousin Nate Dogg et son ami de lycée Warren G qui est le demi-frère de Dr. Dre, membre du sulfureux groupe de Compton, NWA. À eux trois, ils forment un groupe qu'ils baptisent d'abord Three The Hard Way puis 213.

{Intro:}

{Snoop}
Yeah man, this shit here gonna be bigger than the O.J. case
{Tray Deee}
What?
{Snoop}
His dick
{laughter}
{Tray Deee}
Another blast from the Long Beach section
Break gangsta shit (Wake up)
I thought these fools knew

{Verse 1: Tray Deee}

Out on the scout I'm about my papers
cos ain't nobody doin Deee no favors
I'm tryin ta get major with minor risk
Maximisin the minimum of time is spent
on the heist, nice and easy believe me
I take mine and make mine extra cheesy
Keepin niggas in a headlock
Undress em, press em down in a full nelson
I hit jacks off six packs of the crooked one
They slip and I'm bookin em
Fuck fingerprints, gimme from their fingertips
Chips to the neckline cos I got a Tek9
Check mine like a pimp-main ho
So hope you only see me when my grip ain't low
I go up in ya like a skeleton
So S-N-double O-Please let em know the crew I'm bailin with

{Chorus: Snoop Doggy Dogg}

East-side LBC
is what I claim but my game is DPG
And every hustler in my clique got to get his grip
and in my world a girl is considered a biiiiiitch
Is money all that makes you move?
You ain't doin what'cha s'posed to so you gots ta prove
somethin to the ones you love but you needs ta know
If you ain't doin it for yourself it don't matter d'ooooh!
It was a wake up, wake up, wake up.....
Just to wake up, wake up, wake up.......
Wake up, wake up wake up.......
Get up, get up, get up......

{Verse 2: Tray Deee}

I break fools off like lepresy
If they dare, you stare when they next to me
I'ma threat to whoever sweat my style
Hard gangsta aim to represent til death
Reality, you battle me you be in the dirt quick
I'm clever with whatever type of weapon I work with
The bare hand man sleeper
I even banked up and shank motherfuckers in the penta?
I sanked a gang of tough fools in my time
so try me you're liable to lose on my line
The 44'll be what cracks ya head
cos that's exactly what I'm bout ta cap you with
I figured niggas gettin soft like jellatine
So Doggy Dogg tell em all who we're sailin wit

{Chorus: Snoop Dogg}

East-side LBC
is what I claim but my game is DPG
And every hustler in my clique got to get his grip
and in my world a girl is considered a biiiiiitch
Is money all that makes you move?
You ain't doin what'cha s'posed to so you gots ta prove
somethin to the ones you love but you needs ta know
If you ain't doin it for yourself it don't matter d'ooooh!
It was a wake up, wake up, wake up.....
Just to wake up, wake up, wake up.......
I had to wake up, wake up wake up.......
Get up, get up, get up......

{Verse 3: Snoop Dogg}

Uh, gonna work that motherfucker and do the percolatin
cos Snoop Dogg came back with the head raider
Al Davis's? Nah nigga Tracy Davis
The Eastside Long Beach greatest
Criminal with style and boy you love that
Sit back relax and let me drop another rap
but this one's for the sisters and not the hoes
The ones who be groovin it on the step shows
Let a nigga in, I ain't diss ya friend
and like The Staples I make sure we do it again
But don't blow a nigga up or show a nigga up
and don't think a nigga sprung cos you know a nigga fuck
Love is a house and you got the key
so give it to a nigga like a D-O-double G
I'm from the...

{Chorus: Snoop Dogg}

East-side LBC
is what I claim but my game is DPG
And every hustler in my clique got to get his grip
and in my world a girl is considered a biiiiiitch
Is money all that makes you move?
You ain't doin what'cha s'posed to so you gots ta prove
somethin to the ones you love but you needs ta know
If you ain't doin it for yourself it don't matter d'ooooh!
It was a wake up, wake up, wake up.....
Just to wake up, wake up, wake up.......
I had to get up, get up, get up......
It was a wake up, wake up, wake up....
