Shining Down
Lupe Fiasco

Look Up in the Sky.

Look Up in the Sky.

Look Up in the Sky

Thought I was down.

Thought I was gone.

Thought I was around.

I left you alone.

Look Up in the Sky.

Just look Up in the Sky.

See that I'm everywhere

Everywhere

Shining Down on You.


Verse 1:

Well, well

Is that our little author?

Coming back, humming his hymns a little altered

Your attention, Put back on the flow like the department of water

Taken off of the door like little Walter

Chess? Yes. Baby I'm Jerry Lawler

Rebel with a cause; Outlaw with the lawyer

Judge jury like a loop, Rap name Lupe, but my daddy named me Warrior

This is his memorial.


Hook:

Thought I was down.

Thought I was gone.

Thought I was around.

I left you alone.

Look Up in the Sky.

Just look Up in the Sky.

See that I'm everywhere

Everywhere

Shining Down on You.


Verse 2:

No, I ain't the nigga trying to get a liquor line

When I be scriptin lines, Won't this petition sign

It says I'm sick of dimes, Sick of this prison time

I really love my people. I'm sick of pimping mine.

Now if we autotune that shit,

We can hear the songs from that opera room fat bitch

Tell em' it's not to pursue it, just shoe it like a blacksmith

We're trapped, and movin round in circles like it's chap stick

And that's the semi-circle way of thinking that we're chapped with

We'll rap is arounded ya head like the bandana's fabulous used to wrap his hats with

Rather being feds instead of National Geographic's

Well I'm not having it, naw.


Hook:

Thought I was down.

Thought I was gone.

Thought I was around.

I left you alone.

Look Up in the Sky.

Just look Up in the Sky.

See that I'm everywhere

Everywhere

Shining Down on You.


Verse 3:

So, I say hello and this is for the third time

To everybody out there who ain't never heard mine

And if you haven't you know you ain't never heard line

Lu don't moo. No cow words [cowards(cow-herds)], you only heard lions [lines]

Not a facade cherisher, I'd rather have the scars

I don't idolize America, I'm dancing with the stars

Uh huh. All of them? Yeah, they are, too.

You look up and you see us Shining Down on you.


Hook:

Thought I was down.

Thought I was gone.

Thought I was around.

I left you alone.

Look Up in the Sky.

Just look Up in the Sky.

See that I'm everywhere

Everywhere

Shining Down on You.
