The Come Up Songtext
von Thi'sl

This not luck that you seeing, it was more like grace
Took a lot of hard work and like being, I had faith
Running through this cold world like Jermaine with no cape
′Bout to drop a document on the game with no Drake
Hungry like Cash Money Wayne before Dre
Hurt, you can see all the pain on my face
Starving, not a bone or a crumb on my plate
Cousin told me just be ready to rain on my day
I got a king attitude and couldn't see it no other way
You riding or you not, if you not, then you in the way Connect came through, dropped a bundle, we on the way
Then the feds locked him up for ten years, he gone away
Now I′m back down to square one, out on the street again
On my D-Wade, running with the heat again
Whole family need me, the feds, they can't see me in
So I had to sit down, picked up the pen again
Life can be a monster, roll it up, breathe it in
Whitney Houston exhale it, then Toni Braxton breathe again
Ain't no room for giving up, we take it as it go
And I ain′t stopping ′til I come up, I put that on my soul

Fifty thousand records on my own without a song on the radio
The biggest artist in my city right now
But they don't even play me though
But God prepare the table in the presence
Of my enemies so they can watch me
God prepare the table in the presence
Of my enemies so they can watch me


I got my grind and my hustle from watching my mama struggle
She sacrificed it all to take care of me and my brother
The only thing she asked was that we stay out of trouble
But soon as I got my hands on a gram, I made it double
Took that work back to the hood, let′s make it bubble
Team to the middle of the field, let's call a huddle
I′m a quarterback and let's run it, we ′bout to shine
Whole team full of hustlers, let's get it, we 'bout to grind
But I had to make a choice, it′s music or the trap
My kids can′t eat no jail bars, so I chose rap
Ain't no room for going back, we take it how it goes
And I ain′t stopping 'til I come up, I put that on my soul

Fifty thousand records on my own without a song on the radio
The biggest artist in my city right now
But they don′t even play me though
But God prepare the table in the presence
Of my enemies so they can watch me
God prepare the table in the presence
Of my enemies so they can watch me
