Shining Down Lyrics - Lupe Fiasco

Look up in the sky 

Look up in the sky 

Look up in the sky 

You thought I was down 

You thought I was gone 

Thought I wasn't around 

That I left you alone 

Well, look up in the sky 

Just look up in the sky 

See that I'm everywhere, everywhere 

Shining down on you 

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 dough like Little Walter, Chess

Yes, baby I'm Jerry Lawler 

Rebel with a cause, outlaw with a lawyer 

Judge, jury like Alou, rap name Lupe 

But my daddy named me warrior, this is his memorial 

You thought I was down 

You thought I was gone 

Thought I wasn't around 

That I left you alone 

Well, look up in the sky 

Just look up in the sky 

See that I'm everywhere, everywhere 

Shining down on you 

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

When I be scrippin' lines, want this petition sign 

It says I'm sick of dyin', sick of this prison time 

I really love my people, I'm sick of pimpin' mine 

Photos 

Now, if we Auto-Tune that shit 

We can hear the songs from that opera-groomed fat bitch 

Tellin' us not to pursue it, just to shoo it like a blacksmith 

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

And that's the same encircled way of thinking that we chat with 

Well, wrap this around your head like the bandanas 

Fabolous used to wrap his hats with, rather be in feds 

Instead of National Geographics, well I'm not havin' it, no 

You thought I was down 

You thought I was gone 

Thought I wasn't around 

That I left you alone 

Well, look up in the sky 

Just look up in the sky 

See that I'm everywhere, everywhere 

Shining down on you 

So I say hello and this is for the third time 

To everybody out there who ain't never heard mine 

And if you have then you know you ain't ever heard lyin' 

Lu don't moo, no cowards, you only heard 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 

You thought I was down 

You thought I was gone 

Thought I wasn't around 

That I left you alone 

Well, look up in the sky 

Just look up in the sky 

See that I'm everywhere, everywhere 

Shining down on you
