The Come Up by Emanuel X Lyrics
[Verse 1: ELG]
I sit in my room
Thinking how to complete/
These dreams in my head
While, fearin defeat/
Call it podophobia
That's a fear of da feet (defeat)/
Drop sense and get change
And let you keep the receipt/
Nigga, it's realer
Than it's ever been/
Pops came from shit
And now he whips a 'cedes benz/
Meanwhile, I'm finding it hard to
Stay in touch with friends/
But I'm focused
Even With the wrong
Prescription for my lens/
Not one for drama
Rather be alone/
Make music all day
Catch me in the zone/
You play the wide receiver
I'm the ball being thrown/
My lyrics quarterback
Hope your hands ain't made of stone/
[Hook]
Yet they ask me what I do it for/
And they ask me who I do it for/
I got drive, So they
Wanna see me pay a toll/
You ain't shit to the world
Nigga you ain't know?
Nigga you ain't know?
You ain't shit to the world
Nigga..
[Verse 2: ELG]
And I'm
Back at it/
Chest on fire
Like an asthmatic/
Heating up I'm serving
'ye to crack addicts/
Ass faggots Casting
Black magic/
Fake plastics knocking
A charismatic Hispanic/
But this my life this
My passion give it all for this/
Half the niggas in the game
Don't fit the premesis/
Scratch the surface
While I itch for the precipice/
Free souls that see true colors:
Prejudice exorcists/
Now let it
Sink in/
Even though My flows overflow
Above the brim/
Let it be known My words
Come from within/
So understand I ain't playing
But I did come to win/
And oldheads tell me
Trust is key/
But I dot my own i's
And cross my own t's/
See the only man I
Ever learned to trust is me/
'Cuz I rather die alone
If it means I die free/
[Hook]
I sit in my room
Thinking how to complete/
These dreams in my head
While, fearin defeat/
Call it podophobia
That's a fear of da feet (defeat)/
Drop sense and get change
And let you keep the receipt/
Nigga, it's realer
Than it's ever been/
Pops came from shit
And now he whips a 'cedes benz/
Meanwhile, I'm finding it hard to
Stay in touch with friends/
But I'm focused
Even With the wrong
Prescription for my lens/
Not one for drama
Rather be alone/
Make music all day
Catch me in the zone/
You play the wide receiver
I'm the ball being thrown/
My lyrics quarterback
Hope your hands ain't made of stone/
[Hook]
Yet they ask me what I do it for/
And they ask me who I do it for/
I got drive, So they
Wanna see me pay a toll/
You ain't shit to the world
Nigga you ain't know?
Nigga you ain't know?
You ain't shit to the world
Nigga..
