Live Up ft. Talib Kweli - Jean Grae

Lyrics by：Jean Grae

Composed by：Jean Grae

F**k y'all motherf**kas f**k yo fame

F**k yo team of n***as f**k yo name

I could crush y'all cold ice diamonds profane prolific

I'm Cobain but living

I'm Don't Explain Billie Holiday's spirit you feel it

In your veins h****n addict conceal it like the pain I revisit

Every time I do a line more rhymes for nothing

So what's my time for Writing off

I endorse nothing but me s**t

No product but free speech prophetical Sleestak

Nobody can reach me go tweet that Greasy

I'm the preacher of freedom rap

Just freedom from being wack no Perry Madea crap

Go head if you feeling that

I know you'll gon' give me flack for it

She's wack we black we as a people should stand for it

Surprise n***a

Go open your eyes bigger no not for them thighs

I uh I'm destined to rise higher

We all is

We came too far to give up

So now we just got to live up

I live high

Forget lows

Yeah

And I fly

And I grow yeah

See we so high when we get down

And once you fly can't forget how

I live high

Forget lows

And I fly

And I grow

Keep it moving man

Outcast misfit the chick don't fit

Outlast your quick s**t cliques hits

Boasts beefs wrists fros the gold teeth

Trend brought back the shitloads of switched dress codes

D**n jeans

D**n Jean you still rap you still a f**king thorn

Sticking yourself into more war for what

Well aww

I'm so happy that you asked applause

To crack jaws

To black eyes

To change minds

To crack jokes

To chastise

To toast drinks

To expose

To promote think

To post links

To face foes

To erase foes

To face those who ain't know

To chase free caseloads with other free caseloads

But never to catch a case though old skool queso

Not to get poked on Facebook or fame no

Just kidding

This is fo the same dough

Same lane playing same ball

Same park same glow

We came too far to give up

So now we just got to live up

I live high

Forget lows

And I fly

And I grow

See we so high when we get down

And once you fly can't forget how

I live high

Forget lows

And I fly

And I grow

Keep it moving man

You gon' have to let me in at some point

Eh you probably don't

'Cept at gunpoint

And if I said I had a gun it'd be a cliché

Plus it'd be a gun

Plus be in your face

Welcome to my purgatory

The urgent story in a perpetual state ignoring

If you can imagine the things it burdens on me

You can just imagine the hurt I've learned ignoring

My person is the person in the verses' stories

Versus the person in the first person stories

Versus the person to disperse the stories

No diversity that's worth exploring not commercially

Personal boredom can lead to s**t that makes it worser for them

I welcome it 'cause hell's a flaming b***h

I'm working for him

It's queer

Are you gonna shaft her pack her in the rafters this year

Or tag her backpacker stack and slap her rear whatever

I'm irrational passionate

Clear living in a moment you never will come near

We came too far to give up

So now we just got to live up

I live high

Forget lows

And I fly

And I grow

And I grow

See we so high when we get down

And once you fly can't forget how

I live high

Forget lows

And I fly

And I grow

Keep it moving man

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Italy cover it

Famous there's one

And they going

When they was going

I said this they going

Mistring going

I live high yeah

Forget lows yeah

And I fly yeah

And I grow

Keep it moving man

We came too far to give up

So now we just got to live up

I live high

Forget lows

And I fly

And I grow

And I grow

See we so high when we get down

And once you fly can't forget how

I live high

Forget lows

And I fly

And I grow

Keep it moving man
