wah-li - the come up lyrics

Loading...

bridge

without love there is wrong
but sometimes you have to fight
before you can make things right
and sometimes it takes a break up before you wake up
take a look….

verse 1

fresh outta school. just promoted to a new cl-ss
found myself a principle. chose me a new path
its pen & pad, it’s not too much to exam
still i was tested by my mom coz she couldn’t understand

d-mn!
she sacrificed all her dreams so i could live mine
makes sense coz she lost sleep when i started to live mine
in her mind- is this what my son wants do his whole life?
with your mind son your life can be greater than dope rhymes

at least in my mind that’s what i told myself at that time
with a broad mind, an open heart, i was like now it’s go time
i said f-ck going for gold, i’m going for goldmines
drop jewels on their -sses and bring knowledge at all times

excuse the language, i usually have better manners
i was fueled with excitement, ready to gas me some rappers
petrol-bomb them to ashes. or something tragic
as long as there’s damage

“if you don’t diy you can just d-i-e
the end of wah-li”. that’s what my spirit told me
your heart and your arteries. we call it your artistry
not simple as 1, 2, 3. just writing some a, b, c’s

but in months of t-i-m-e. i was writing down a-z
i wasn’t tryna be p-a-p. but more of a p-a-c
be bigger than b-i-g. that joint man it blew up the scene
k!lling in cpt. even reached up to jhb
and before i even knew it i was up on national tv

bridge

without love there is wrong
but sometimes you have to fight
before you can make things right
and sometimes it takes a break up before you wake up
take a look….

verse 2

i wasn’t ready though
for both tv and the radio. no studio just months ago
now almost every weekend i got a show so i gotta show

why i gave the city hope but most weren’t paying though
new n-ggas saying you’re fam and then they call you bro
every groupie wanna get a chance to be the biggest hoe
as they come and go. in my city it’s how the come up go

i told myself i wouldn’t come up so. i wouldn’t come up broke
a decade down the road. a legend only my city knows. f-ck no

it’s not luck when it’s fate
it’s not good when it’s great
coz there are no a mistakes
although you get it wrong at least once
before you get it straight

and that’s forever
it gets worse before it gets better
so don’t let up, keep your head up
don’t succ-mb to the pressure
no looking back

but looking back, i got props from towdee mac
verb tweeted “murk it fam”, in jozi there i am
16 bars for the cam, to k!ll the cypher was the plan
for the sa hip hop awards, the only way i can
back on tv there i am

like f-ck it i’m the man, there i am
while rattex is asking n-ggas who i am
i was in the same room my n-gga. i was sitting back
but here i am, still no cash

n0body tells you that. about the bad, the lack of fans
and how the come up can be h-ll
so when you listen to this track
i really hope you understand that

bridge

without love there is wrong
but sometimes you have to fight
before you can get things right
and sometimes it takes a break up before you wake up
take a look…
