Talib Kweli Get Up Lyrics

Get Up Lyrics

We be blazin, so amazin

Everybody get up everybody get up

We be blazin, so amazin

Everybody get up everybody get up



Talib Kweli:

New year new record time to do bigger shit

Caught a plane to Cali link with my nigga Quick

I fickled with the combination, we bomb the nation but stay calm and
patient

At the world got hyper hearing I'm musical conversation

It's a beautiful situation right here

Givin birth on the track cuz the cipher stay pregnant with ideas

And we rockin it, rock rock rockin it

Til the hater players put a sock in it 

Poppin shit that you got to get cuz we properly document

How cats look more like dicks than the Washington monument

Phallicly tryin to challenge me but who you racin with

Is amazin with lyrical lingerie, I be lacin shit

We be blazin it so put it in the air with the chronic

My lyrics like drugs got you hooked on my phonics

From Brooklyn to Compton to Lounge to Soundbombing

Still Rockin off the balance of options



Now if you got a spliff then (Put it in the air)

If you wanna riff then (Put it in the air)

If you shakin your act (Put it in the air)

If you makin it loud (Put it in the air)

If you need a crib strapped then (Put it in the air)

Take your hand off the gat and (Put it in the air)

It's not your bud in the club (Put it in the air)

Got nothin but love (Put it in the air)



They say my rhymes is too heavy I come thicker than the fog

You get it when I retire and battle my catalogue

Writin rhymes in my captain's log, black stardate emcees

Fake like Egyptian gods in Stargate, lovin to hate

But with all types of weight in they raps

I draw blood like mosquitos, y'all annoy like gnats

Pop that around a brown cat get laid flat

Concrete adjust to the contours of your back

Quick where you at?



(Quick)

Yo I'm in the back room makin a run

Ain't even touched her and makin her cum

And you can catch me out in Portland with Stoudamire

Everybody doin shows but I'm the hottest flier

Bitches sayin "honest, I swear to God"

Talkin like them believin her is so damn hard

Could you really blame a nigga if I fuck then skate?

You didn't even pay that's why you flaunt the date

All you did was eat salad, talk shit about niggas and drink wine

And your answer kept changin cuz bitch you keep lyin

Talkin bout "he make me sick"

"All he do is disrespect me keep callin me bitch

And he only wanna fuck me when he off of that dope"

What the fuck you think I'm here for, not to love you I hope

All I'm bout to do is listen for a minute while I get my drink bended

Introduce you to my dog Kweli and go up in it



Talib Kweli:

Now if you got a spliff then (Put it in the air)

If you wanna riff then (Put it in the air)

If you shakin your act (Put it in the air)

If you makin it loud (Put it in the air)

If you need a crib strapped then (Put it in the air)

Take your hand off the gat and (Put it in the air)

It's not your bud in the club (Put it in the air)

Got nothin but love (Put it in the air)



Now let me tell you how I am...

I'm mild mannered in the day, a superhero at night

I got the special invite, I make your spot look right

No ice, no Range, no bottle of champagne

and Half these motherfuckas can't pronounce the name

I so cool why you hypin at the coffee shop

Hype niggas make girls be like "Get off me, stop"

Real niggas like us, yo of course we rock

Cuz the game un-orthodox/ off top

You got cold feet, like a pro off ya socks

Always goin downtown pullin all the stops

Your breath smellin like fish from right off the docks

that's How you lost your spot you're too hype



Light a spliff and (Put it in the air)

If you wanna riff then (Put it in the air)

If you shakin your act (Put it in the air)

If you makin it loud (Put it in the air)

If you need a crib strapped then (Put it in the air)

Take your hand off the gat and (Put it in the air)

It's not your bud in the club (Put it in the air)

Got nothin but love (Put it in the air)
