Kick, Push Ii Lyrics - Food & Liquor - Lupe Fiasco

Look at what we did, came a long way from Dirty Ghetto Kids (Uh, yeah) 

Look at what we did, came a long way from Dirty Ghetto Kids (Yeah) 

You know what it is (Haha, uh, uh, come on) 

When the cops didn't find him for grindin' though 

They kinda blew the vibe, figured it was time to go 

Plus, he had to be at home a long time ago 

And he had made like ten dollars off the sign he wrote 

It read: "A little hungry, and need a little money, it's for my little sister, and her little tummy." 

Wasn't lyin' though didn't go buy hydro 

Went to the restaurant and bought two gyros 

'Cause he knew they wasn't cooking where he lived 

Da-kook-akook-akook's now took him to the crib 

A little hurt from the rail he took into the ribs 

Right past the pushers who couldn't underdig 

"What's the use of pushin' you ain't pushin' none of this" 

If I kick it with y'all I'm just pushin' for a bit 

But, what was on his mind had pushed him to the lid 

They best customer wasn't cooking for a kid 

Yes sir

So he kick, push 

Over his shoulders he swore he'd never look 

'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness 

Life wasn't too attractive (Yeah, uh) 

And so he kick, push 

Over his shoulders he swore he'd never look 

'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness 

Life wasn't too attractive (yeah) 

You see his mom was a crackhead and his father couldn't be contacted 

He lived with being different, was combatted 

Amongst the other things on his young, black head 

And see, his girl was a white girl 

But, just cause she was white, see her life wasn't light-world 

She, too had the drama thick 

Had a daddy and a momma, but her daddy used to momma hit 

Daddy caught something, chasing fatties made her momma sick 

Couldn't afford the medicine, pimped it to the pharmacist 

As suicidal feelings would rise, switch over to transitions, helped her conquer it 

Pays for her momma's pills with a sponsership 

A cell phone bill and a Honda kit Uh-huh 

And that's why she skates with he 

Someone to feel her pain and her place to be 

Photos 

That's why, that's why, that's why she kick, push 

Over her shoulders she swore she'd never look 

'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness 

Life wasn't too attractive (Yeah, uh) 

That's why she kick, push 

Over his shoulders she swore she'd never look 

'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness 

Life wasn't too attractive (yeah) 

A traveling band of misfits and outcasts 

Knock their heads from Misfits to Outkast 

A lot of scars, they did this without pads 

A lot of hearts, who did this without dads 

One's father was filthy rich, two was middle class, and one was homeless 

Add in a paralyzed girl in a wheelchair who just liked to watch it, that was the whole clique 

I think about it everytime I see this old flick 

That was taken in the park, in front of this old bench 

They wrote on the back, "You thank for push, kick, hope you make a video, the beat is so sick." 

Well, I did, I hope you seen it, It's on MTV, Soundtrakk's a genius 

Love from Tony Hawk, beat from the Ice Creamer's 

Before we out it out had to pay the fillipinas 

Just to show 'em how... 

You kick, push 

Over your shoulders you swore you'd never look 

'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness 

Life wasn't too attractive (Yeah, uh) 

That's why you kick, push 

Over your shoulders you swore you'd never look 

'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness 

Life wasn't too attractive (yeah)
