The Come Up Lyrics


Yo, still hungry man
Yeah, ay yo I'm 'bout to make moves
And get this little bit of paper right
This broke shit got a bitch staying awake at night
It ain't a guy thing or a girl thing
It's a me thing getting high and drunk every weekend
Fuck drama I'd rather shine where you are
Blacks in the Cadillac no ice at all
Seven-six ay ah bitch watch me ball
[Incomprehensible] like a motherfucker dipping from the law
Kinda game is they playing?
I got a gang a players call my gang to bang 'em
A let 'em know that I'm all for their pay so
Tryin' to say nothing young gun that shit is play doe
Push the pedal to the metal hit the fuckin' floor
Ain't about the D O E then what you talkin' for?
Expedition never slippin' on a money mission
Shit is real when you ain't even got no pot to piss in

That's why I'm on the come up, for the come up
Watch you niggas get done up who try to run up
However, whatever the case may be
You tryna get it down down, we can get it down down
Yeah, up late at night
Yeah, at the kitchen stove
Yeah, with them V-12's
Yeah, tryna make they ghost
Yeah, with the tekan gage
Yeah, sellin' gray and beige
Yeah, 'cos the red and blue
Yeah, ducking the federals
Yeah, gotta keep the smash an' biz
Yeah, with the mansion runs
Yeah, fuck driving dog
Yeah, drug trafficking
Yeah, making illegal lefts
Yeah, making crazy rights
Yeah, code over money man
Yeah, never mind the ice
These motherfuckers ain't right
Mad 'cos I got my game tight
You never find a brawl who grind twice as hard
Uh, this money situation niggas acting funny on occasion
But that's on them 'cos that's time wasting
Meanwhile I'm a be scheming for dockets
Stash in the sock drawer, nice little duckie
Working on a master plan to get the master cash
Parties and shit I'm a have to pass
'Cos one day I plan to live it up
Until then you gon give it up
Money man tell me what the fuck is up?
Here we go, here we go, here we go again
Roll it up, light it up, pass it to a friend
Stacking it all whether it's twenty or a thousand
Out to take my Philly off of welfare out of public housing
Who me? I got bills to pay until then I'm gon make a way, is that okay?
Yeah, up late at night
Yeah, at the kitchen stove
Yeah, with them V-12's
Yeah, tryna make they ghost
Yeah, with the tekan gage
Yeah, sellin' gray and beige
Yeah, 'cos the red and blue
Yeah, ducking the federals
Yeah, gotta keep the smash an' biz
Yeah, with the mansion runs
Yeah, fuck driving dog
Yeah, drug trafficking
Yeah, making illegal lefts
Yeah, making crazy rights
Yeah, code over money man
Yeah, never mind the ice
The smell of money got my trigger finger acting funny
No stoppin' me homies until I'm sittin' nice and lovely
Keep puffin until I'm high as a bird
Want the doe, fuck the crumbs give 'em to the birds
Oh my stars ain't asking no how comes
Fuck being patient I ain't waiting for the outcomes
Fuck you eating out but please don't get me started
Out for the paper with that big face on it
Yeah, up late at night
Yeah, at the kitchen stove
Yeah, with them V-12's
Yeah, tryna make they ghost
Yeah, with the tekan gage
Yeah, sellin' gray and beige
Yeah, 'cos the red and blue
Yeah, ducking the federals
Yeah, gotta keep the smash an' biz
Yeah, with the mansion runs
Yeah, fuck driving dog
Yeah, drug trafficking
Yeah, making illegal lefts
Yeah, making crazy rights
Yeah, code over money man
Yeah, never mind the ice
Hush little baby, hush little baby
Hush little baby, hush little baby
Hush little baby, hush little baby
Hush little baby, hush little baby
Hush little baby, hush little baby
Hush little baby, hush little baby
Hush little baby, hush little baby
Hush little baby, hush little baby

Anthony Cruz (born March 9, 1972 in Brooklyn, New York), better known by his stage name AZ, is a Grammy-nominated rapper currently residing in Englewood, New Jersey. He is mainly known for his close association with Nas, his membership in the hip hop supergroup The Firm, and his multi-syllabic rhyming pattern and deep content within his solo albums. He released his debut album, Doe Or Die, in 1995 and has since released 1998's Pieces of a Man, 2001's 9 Lives, 2002's Aziatic, 2005's A.W.O.L., 2006's The Format and 2008's Undeniable. AZ is currently working on his 10th studio album titled Doe or Die 2 to be released sometime in 2011.

Biography:
AZ was born Anthony Cruz to an African-American mother and a Dominican father. Although he had been rapping since 1992, AZ first came to prominence by appearing on Nas' landmark album Illmatic on the song "Life's a Bitch" (1994)—he was the only guest emcee to appear on that album. After a bidding war, AZ signed with EMI, and soon released Doe Or Die (1995) to more critical acclaim than commercial sales. The album's lead single, "Sugar Hill", became AZ's only major commercial success as a solo artist, reaching the top 25 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and achieving Gold status. AZ's EMI contract was transferred to sister label Noo Trybe Records/Virgin Records when the EMI Label Group was shut down.

In 1997, he and Nas appeared in an Sprite commercial.

AZ's fanbase grew considerably after he joined The Firm, a supergroup comprised of AZ, Nas, Foxy Brown, and Nature, with Dr. Dre and The Trackmasters producing. The Firm's only album, The Album, was regarded as critically disappointing. Pieces of a Man, AZ's second solo release, didn't sell well. Independently, AZ released S.O.S.A. to little fanfare in 2000. Soon, however, AZ signed with Motown/Universal Records and released 9 Lives.

In 2002, he released Aziatic. A single from the album, "The Essence," was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group. The video to its first single, "I'm Back," received moderate MTV2 play. AZ was supposed to release an album titled Final Call, around late 2004 or early 2005. Due to massive bootlegging, however, the album was never released. Instead, A.W.O.L. was released on September 6, 2005. This album featured many tracks that were on the unreleased Final Call, as well as some new ones—the first single was the DJ Premier-produced "The Come Up," and it became a moderately popular single.

AZ's sixth solo album The Format , was released on November 7, 2006.

Since The Format, AZ has released a mixtape titled The Memphis Sessions and a J-Love mixtape titled The Return of S.O.S.A. His latest album Undeniable will be released in early 2008.

Style:
AZ is known for his smooth, rhythmic cadence of delivery. He is also known for his use of multi-syllable rhyme schemes, internal rhymes, unconventional rhymes, and a large vocabulary. AZ is "one of the greatest rappers as far as lyrics and longevity", his style and flow are instantly recognizable and comparable to his friend and collaborator Nas.
