Till I Get There Lyrics - Lasers - Lupe Fiasco

Album on hold whole world on hold 

The crowd is "HO!" Operator's like "hold" 

Man, now ain't that cold? 

I'm just tryna talk to my homie that's up in a hole 

Now home girl no tryna be a hoe 

Even though she on a pole 

Now can she get a second chance? No! 

Woah, like the opposite of go 

That ain't how it's supposed to be(bee), or butterfly 

Or for the sake of rhyming let's just say "butterflyee" 

The truth stings like Muhammad Ali 

I tell 'em tell 'em don't homocide me 

I'm just a little old hope with his back against the ropes 

Fighting for his fans and, fighting for his folks 

But the boo's from the crowd can become so loud 

If I could block em out then, I could knock em out then 

Dance around the ring, but until then I'll say

I'mma keep it cool, and I'mma do me 

It is what it is and that's how it's gon' be 

Until I get there 

Until I get there 

And yeah I got flaws, I know I'm not perfect 

But all the ups and downs, will soon be worth it 

When I get there 

When I get there 

Doctor doctor please, the fame ain't painless enough 

That's cuz you ain't famous enough 

You got a little game, but your name ain't ringing enough 

He said take two of these, put some change in my cup 

I said I wasn't poor he gave me some more 

Prescribed me a publicist and pointed to the door 

Out, ouch, I'm telling you this all from a therapist's couch 

Tell me 'bout your mother, what she's all about 

Prescribed me a interview and then told me to bounce 

Damn, jeez, the world is so cold, I'm glad I bought these ski's 

Went right off of the bunny slopes and right into the trees 

Rendered unconscious they rushed me to a concert 

Instead of green jello, and maybe chicken soup 

They fed me magazine covers, and video shoots 

Photos 

I'mma keep it cool, and I'mma do me 

It is what it is and that's how it's gon' be 

Until I get there 

Until I get there 

And yeah I got flaws, I know I'm not perfect 

But all the ups and downs, will soon be worth it 

When I get there 

When I get there 

And when I finally make it I'mma stunt so hard 

Evil as Knievel I'mma jump so far 

Way up in the atmosphere, I ain't coming back 

Be a jerk to them jerks yeah, that'll make 'em hurt 

Huh? Said a young boy in the mirror 

A young version of me, so I started to tear up 

He said you need to cheer up, your mind need to clear up 

You're already here, just be yourself from here up 

And then he disappeared and I felt something familiar 

Something I was taught, something I had lost 

If you are afraid, or fear that you gon' change some 

All you gotta do is just remember where you came from 

I'mma keep it cool, and I'mma do me 

It is what it is and that's how it's gon' be 

Until I get there 

Until I get there 

And yeah I got flaws, I know I'm not perfect 

But all the ups and downs, will soon be worth it 

When I get there 

When I get there
