Coming Up Lyrics


This one goes out to the baby girls
In a rush, growin' up in this crazy world
Yeah, your brother on the road and he never home
I know you feelin' kinda sad now that daddy gone
You can't let it get you down, gotta carry on
We only lose things because it makes us strong
You always had my love and now you got a song
From the biggest, biggest fan that you've ever known
I know won't be little girls, not for very long
And you ain't gotta have a man if you don't ever want
'Cause I'ma make sure you got two of everything
That you ever want, every time, like your very own
Not to make you hard to respect
Just really, really, really, really hard to impress
It's a whole wide world for you to go and get your hands on
Until then, just come and get your dance on now
I see you comin' up
I'ma give you the lowdown, down, down

You ain't never gotta worry 'bout nothin'
Just as long as I'm around, 'round, 'round, 'round
This for everybody feelin' good
You know who you are or you misunderstood
Never had money or you livin' good
If you from the burbs, if you in the hood
Recognize where we come from
In my day, man, I did a little somethin' some
They like, "How come you don't rap that?"
'Cause that's a backtrack and I ain't tryin' to backpack
I'm only movin' forward, homie, that's that
Direction, a lot of shoulders lack that
I'm just tryin' to give it to 'em like SatNav
Now I know I'm gonna make out like a fat rat
That's cool as long as they 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 magic, any way you tap that thang
I see you comin' up
I'ma give you the lowdown, down, down
You ain't never gonna worry 'bout nothin'
Just as long as I'm around, 'round, 'round, 'round
And if the floor falls out, I'ma be there to carry you
And if you want that star, I'll go get it out the sky for you
If you cry or shed a tear, I'ma dry your eyes
Just to let you know it'll be alright
I know it's like a whole lot goin' on
Things goin' right, things goin' wrong
Maybe, baby, on the way you feel so alone
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 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 lookin' at you sideways
You just wave right back, tell 'em hi, hey
Mad you ain't hangin' with 'em in the driveway
Nah, we gon' keep movin' to the highway
Strong is puttin' on
The week is all over like Friday, chillin'
Shout to King David for bringin' in Philly
And all my pretty, independent women in the building
Let's go
I see you comin' up
I'ma give you the lowdown, down, down
You ain't never gonna worry 'bout nothin'
Just as long as I'm around, 'round, 'round
I see you comin' up, I see you comin' up
I'ma give you the lowdown, down, down
You ain't never gonna worry 'bout nothin'
Just as long as I'm around, 'round, 'round, 'round

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Wasalu Muhammad Jaco (born February 16, 1982 in Chicago, Illinois), better known by his stage name Lupe Fiasco, is a Grammy Award-winning American hip-hop artist and producer. He first became known to the mainstream hip-hop community in 2005 when he appeared on Kanye West's album Late Registration on the track "Touch the Sky." In 2006 Lupe released his debut album, Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor on Atlantic Records, and in December 2007 he released his second full length album, Lupe Fiasco's The Cool. His next studio album, entitled Lasers, was released on March 8th 2011 after a protest against Atlantic's decision not to release it.

The Around My Way (Freedom Ain't Free) Songfacts reports that Fiasco’s first single off his fourth studio album, Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor II: The Great American Rap Album Pt. 1 debuted on May 21, 2012. On "Around My Way (Freedom Ain't Free)," he spits rhymes about aspects of modern American life he doesn’t like such as "Suicide bombers and prosperity gospels, emaciated models, with cocaine and blood pouring out their nostrils” as well as socio-political problems in Ghana and the invasion of Iraq.

Lupe has previously been on label Epic with his group Da Pak and then signed a solo deal with Arista. His years at Arista only led to the 2003 promo single "Pop Pop" as well as guest appearances on singles from Tha' Rayne (2002's "Kiss Me" and 2003's "Didn't You Know") and K Fox (2003's "This Life"), then Arista folded in 2004 and Lupe was signed to Atlantic Records.
