Lupe Fiasco
Sky High Graduates
[Intro: Kanye West and Common]
Get with this rebel thing
High-I-I-I-I-I, La La La La La La La (Top of the world baby, We on top of the world)
(Top of the world baby, We on top of the world)
Now let's take em' high-I-I-I-I-I, La La La La La La La (Top of the world baby, We on top of the world)
(Top of the world baby, We on top of the world)
[Verse 1: Kanye West]
Back when Gucci was the shit to rock
Back when Slick Rick got the shit to pop
I'd do anything to say I got it
Damn, them new loafers hurt my pocket
Before anybody wanted K. West beats
Me and my girl split the buffet at KFC
Dog, I was havin' nervous breakdowns
Like "Man, these n***as that much better than me?"
Baby, I'm goin' on an aeroplane
And I don't know if I'll be back again
Sure enough, I sent the plane tickets
But when she came to kick it, things became different
Any girl I cheated on, sheets I skeeted on
Couldn't keep it at home, thought I needed a Nia Long
I'm tryin' to right my wrongs
But it's funny them same wrongs helped me write this song
[Verse 2: Pharrell Williams]
On and on and, the temperature is warm and
I spit heat flashes, n***as get nauseous
Bright as a bitch, so analyze with caution
When the light hit the ice, bet a hundred that you vomit
And should I mention the fact the Transition is the track?
No incision to the vision just to get me where I’m at, huh
Little Skateboard, he too grown (Come on)
Ridin' up and down Collins in that that new Two-Tone
It's so cold, you don't wanna feel the chill of it (Uh)
Just stand back and just look at the grill of it (Uh)
I don't smoke but I bet the sense a mil' of it
Totally intensifies the vivid-ass appeal of it
You can be jealous, and grit your teeth (Uh huh)
But all these little n***as got somethin' in reach
So, you want heat? These n***as can front heat
While I'm on my boat party, tryin' to Sunseek
My name is Skate... board... P
[Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco]
Yes, yes, yes, guess who's on third?
Lupe steal like Lupin the 3rd
Here like ear 'til I'm beer on the curb
Peachfuzz buzz but beard on the verge
Let's slow it down like we're on the syrup
Bottle-shaped body like Mrs. Butterworth
But, before you say another word
I'm back on the block like I'm layin' on the street
I'm tryna stop lyin' like I'm Mumm-Ra
But I'm not lyin' when I'm layin' on the beat, en garde
Or touché, Lupe cool as the unthawed
But I still feel possessed as a gun charge
Come as correct as a porn star
In a fresh pair steps in my best foreign car
So, I represent the first
Now let me end my verse right where the horns are, like uh
[Outro: Big Gipp, Kanye West and Common]
Touch what I never touched before
Seen what I never seen befo'
Woke up and seen the sun
Sky high, sky high
(I'm Sky High)
Touch what I never touched before
Seen what I never seen befo'
Woke up and seen the sun
Sky high, sky high
(I'm Sky High)
Touch what I never touched before
Seen what I never seen befo'
Woke up and seen the sun
Sky high, sky high
(I'm Sky High)
Touch what I never touched before
Seen what I never seen befo'
Woke up and seen the sun
Sky high, sky high
(I'm Sky High)
