So in approximately five, four, three, two, one
What up, hon? What you know about your future? (Uh)
What you know about a superstar?

Let me pour you a little more champ-ag-nee
Just from yellow bottles, I'm anti-Asti
I'm just itchin' to hand your car key
Ever driven a drop, not? Well come, give it a shot

[Chorus]
Uh, I just came to run game (Oh)
Flash my watch and show off my chain (Oh)
Yeah, let her know it's my Range (Oh)
I'm just playin', I'm just sayin'
Look, so this what we do (Yeah)
You, me, and her go back to my room (Yeah)
To chop game, pop a bottle or two (Yeah)
I'm just playin', I'm just sayin'
That ain't me (Playboy)

Nah, understand, I'm just blessed to be here, yeah (Uh)
Happy to be in the same section

And you and your best friend go an' get dressed
In the finest designers you can find

[Verse 3]
The reality is I know exactly what my salary is
And I can't afford to play myself
Rather play myself, trick off, and pay myself
Before I break myself to make her take off belt
Nah, we can go shoppin', yeah
And we can roll around in the drop, boo, yeah
But you can't hold it down from the top, boo (Yeah)
So please understand that my buck stops here
I don't need you, why should I succumb
To the power of the P U, frontin' to intrigue you
Something for your peoples, I seen it coming like previews
So I started dumbing to deceive you (Uh)
And make you fall for the okie-doke (Uh-huh)
Boo, I must admit this was mostly hoax
I mean, I stopped pushing Ranges when I was 17
Now it's about Porsches, forest green (Uh)

[Chorus]
I just came to run game (Oh)
Flash my watch and show off my chain (Oh)
Yeah, let her know it's my Range (Oh)
I'm just playin', I'm just sayin'
Look, so this what we do (Yeah)
You, me, and her go back to my room (Yeah)
To chop game, pop a bottle or two (Yeah)
I'm just playin', I'm just sayin'
(That ain't me)

Lupe Fiasco

The Chicago born Wasalu Muhammad Jaco first tasted success when he featured on Kanye West’s hit “Touch the Sky”, a track that shortly preceded his real breakout, his 2006 debut album Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor, and he never looked back. He has established himself as one of the greatest urban wordsmiths of all time, with Genius even dubbing him the ‘Proust of Rap’.

While he’s now regarded of one of the 21st Century’s Hip-Hop greats, he wasn’t always a fan of the genre, initially disliking it due to the prominence of vulgarity and misogyny within it. In his late teens, he aspired to make it as a lyricist. In his early twenty’s, he met Jay-Z, who helped him sign with Atlantic Records in 2005. The following year, he released his debut album (Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor), which was met with acclaim from fans and critics alike, as did his sophomore effort, Lupe Fiasco’s The Cool.

The following eight years of his career saw far less output than many would’ve anticipated. This can be partly attributed to his struggles with Atlantic Records. The executives wanted him to sign a 360 deal; however, as he refused to do so they instead shelved his already completed 3rd album, Lasers, and wouldn’t promote him as they had previously. The overseers at the label also interfered with his music (as they had tried to do with his fan-favorite track “Dumb it Down”); subsequently effecting the quality and sound of his third and fourth albums.
