Marc Johnson - The Come Up lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm on the come up, working til the sun up Paying back student loans so I gotta get my funds up; Graduated and I got that piece of paper Now to make it with this rap before I meet my maker; So I Pray Hands together, hope He's listening Life can be a b**h, but man I ain't tripping: So I pay my dues, started out a fan but I always had dreams of being the f**ing man; For the crowds I'm rapping, everybody clapping When my CD hits the shelves, they'll be ripping off the packing; Play my songs, recite my verses I hope that we connect like I wrote it all in cursive; First mixtape, no time for mistakes I put the date back again, man it's a f**ing pisstake; But I guess it takes time to be this great Give me a some time and you'll hear them hits mate; I ain't bout that street life, never been a street guy I wanted this rap life since I was knee high; Working overtime, just to be the guy A fly boy rapping lord knows that I define; Ugh, you better know it But I ain't taking chances so on every song I show it; Every time they listening my fan base growing On my Al-Qaeda sh**, kid I'm about to blow and; I'm about to show, everybody who slept on me I ain't gonna rest, not until I am the best homie; I just want the cheques, make a milli for my mother, one ain't enough, I'ma need another; I'm a need few, put my brother through school, I'm trying to see my Dad retire kinda soon; So I Work OD, that's all I know g Trying to get the accolades, plaques with the gold piece; This the come up, and you know it's necessary Rookie of the year, in 5 years I'll be legendary; In 10 years, I hope they'll crown me the king Thought about it now so it's tatted on my skin; So the ink in my veins and the thoughts in my brain So I put it all on this song that you're playing; Let me just say, thank you all for listening Trying to give my fam a milli each, no dividends; Every track I'm on, best believe that I'll be k**ing it One thing's for sure this song ain't no different;
