The Come Up Lyrics by Alchemy

2017

[Produced by Alchemy]
[Verse 1: Miles Canady]
I'm the prince of the city rocking this pink hat
How I get so sure of myself? I'd have to think back
To 13, thought I was clean, but that's the thing, that's True
Now it's the 2000's vibe that I bring back
XXL tees and fitteds, but not as sloppy
No hoes, but cool videos? I got em probably
Whole world's finna know me as Pink Hat Papi
Confident, but apologies if I come off as cocky
In first grade, I wanted to be a pop star
Listening to Pharrell made me wanna stand up on cop cars
That and Kanye ignited the rebel in me
Doesn't make a difference since everybody looks at me shifty
Young black weirdo, cooler than I appear, so
Come and vibe, make sure to keep your S/0 near though
I won't do anything, but if they ask, well I'll just say my name is Prince Pastel, and I’m gone
[Interlude: Sample]
It's really about that dedication and, just like, people don't understand. Like, I was thirteen, I started making beats and from there I was slaving, like literally slaving, like every single day. I'd go to sleep making beats, I would wake up making beats, even before I went to school I'd wake up early to just finish some shit from yesterday, soon as I come home
[Verse 2: Kevin Jazz]
Came a long way from Sweden they say that i couldn't make it here
Now im looking in their eyes and they just wanna dissapear
It's funny how your shit talk and my hard work gone interfere
Slaughter any rapper hold their head up like im shakespear
I body any rapper, you know im doing damage
Im living lavish make you average in my second language
I be the maverick im walking my own way
Im young and i look for answers and i ain't talking on sway
My mom's a heavy drinker, my dad is still in jail
I had the odds againts me man i was supposed to fail
I picked myself up and i had to do it all drastic
Took a job at mcdonalds to prove this rappers are plastic
I worked my way up im hungry these people phony
Y'all soft im here for the cheese not maccaroni
Fuck whatchu heard rap game wish they could clone me
When we poppin like balloony sweet life of zack and cody
Meeting up with a OG your girlfriend is try’na phone me and know me but no they dont
Selling out no we won't my name is kevin jazz but you know im bringing the soul
Yeah money is really dope and you know it but yeah i dont, jazz
[Outro: Sample]
If you wanna be in the NBA and you in high school. You gon' need to shoot around everyday, in order to like - build your skill. So it's just really the same thing, it's just like if you do the same thing, for so long, after so many times. You can't help but, you have to progress. Or else what are you doing, you have to get better. It's just of how hard you are working, if you're not getting better you're just not working hard enough
