"Coming Up" lyrics - LUPE FIASCO
If you're feeling good let me hear you say "All right, all right!"
What up? All right!
Pooh Bear! I'm feeling good so I'mma say it myself, all right, all right
Claudia, all right, gonna do this
This one goes out to the baby girls
In a rush growing up in this crazy world
Yeah your brother on the row, he ain't ever home
I know you're feeling kinda sad now that daddy gone
You can't let it get you down, gotta carry on
We only lose things because it make us strong
You always have my love, and now you got a song
From the biggest biggest fan that you've ever known
I know you want me little girls, not for very long
And you ain't gotta have a man if you ain't ever want
'Cause I'mma make sure you got two of everything
That you ever want, every tone make your very own
Not to make you hard to respect
Just really, really, really, really hard to impress
There's a whole wide world for you to get your hands on
Until then, just come and get your dance on now
I see you coming up
I'mma give you the low down, down, down
You ain't never gotta worry about nothing
Just as long as I'm around, round, round, round
This for everybody feeling good
You know who you are, or you misunderstood
Never had money, or you living good
If you from the burbs, if you in the hood
Recognise where we come from
In my day man I did a little something something
They like "how come you don't rap that?"
'Cause that's a back track and I ain't trying to back back
I'm only moving forward, homie, that's that
Direction, a lot of shoulders lack that
I'm just trying to give it to 'em like sat nav
Now I know a money maker like a fat rat
That's cool, as long as he don't trap crack
Graduate from school and still let his pants sag
Never catch a case, know how to let his cash stack
Welcome to the map of dough, any way trap that now
I see you coming up
I'mma give you the low down, down, down
You ain't never gotta worry about nothing
Just as long as I'm around, round, round, round
Pooh Bear!
And if the roof falls down, I'mma be there to carry you
And if you want that star, I'll go get it out the sky for you
If you gotta shed a tear, I'mma dry your eyes
Just to let you know it'll be all right
I know there's like a whole lot going on
Things going right, things going wrong
Maybe baby on the way, in you for so long
Know that in this world you're never really on your own
God got a number, get Him on the phone
He'll never put you in places where you don't belong
Put you through the pain to put you on the throne
And I know that from the bottom of my corazon
And if they looking at you sideways
You just wave right back and tell them "Hi", "hey"
Man you ain't hanging with 'em in the driveway
Naw, we gonna keep 'em moving to the highway
Strong as puttin' on
Wicked all over like Friday Chilli
Shout to King David for bringing them to Philly
And I'mma put an independent rhythm in the building, let's go
I see you coming up
I'mma give you the low down, down, down (all the way down)
You ain't never gotta worry about nothing
Just as long as I'm around, round, round, round
I see you coming up
I'mma give you the low down, down, down (all the way down)
You ain't never gotta worry about nothing
Just as long as I'm around, round, round, round
