Lupe Fiasco - I\'m Beamin\' lyrics
rate me<br>
Today, nobody cares <br />
But tomorrow they will, they will <br />
Today, nobody cares <br />
But, oh, tomorrow they will, they will <br />
<br />
They said my future was dark <br />
You see me now? <br />
Just look around <br />
I'm beamin' <br />
<br />
(We are) They used to talk <br />
When I wasn't around (Lasers) <br />
You see me now (We're not) <br />
(Losers) I'm beamin' <br />
<br />
I get my energy from my inner G <br />
I be in outer space, but I got inner peace <br />
So tell my enemies that they can't injure me <br />
I know that irritates, you have my sympathies <br />
Well, you should protest, yeah, you should picket me <br />
I'm on a losing strike, I'm on a winning streak <br />
I'm out in left field, I'm speaking mentally <br />
But that's a better places than where the benches be <br />
I'm feelin' really good, me and different beat <br />
Me and my different drummer, he play the timpanis <br />
See, that's what got me here, you hearin' me <br />
Me on my black man in the future shit, call me Billy Dee <br />
See, I'm just forward-looking, that's how I really see <br />
See, while you Valentimes, I'm thinking Christmas trees <br />
And that's how this would be, even at Mickey D's <br />
Semicolon, close parentheses <br />
<br />
They said my future was dark <br />
You see me now? <br />
Just look around <br />
I'm beamin' <br />
<br />
They used to talk <br />
When I wasn't around <br />
You see me now <br />
I'm beamin' <br />
<br />
Do you remember me, the guy from verse one? <br />
Failure's my last name, Never's my first one <br />
You see I hood a lot, and yeah I nerd some <br />
Hood's where the heart is, nerd's where the words from <br />
Don't represent either, because I merged them <br />
'S kids who wanna leave, and I encourage them <br />
Go out and see the world, never return from <br />
Yeah, you don't come back, unless you learn some <br />
And baby girl, what does it matter where your purse from? <br />
Your hurr done, your nails did, your ass fat, but you're dumb <br />
Mix Melyssa Ford with Maya Angelou <br />
Become a top model and Sojourner too <br />
I try to follow this, what Muhammad do <br />
It's such a old soul inside the sonic youth <br />
Swear I'm Ferrari'd up, and I'm conscious, too <br />
I don't prophesize... I promise you <br />
<br />
They said my future was dark <br />
You see me now? <br />
Just look around <br />
I'm beamin' <br />
<br />
They used to talk <br />
When I wasn't around (Lasers) <br />
You see me now (Ha) <br />
I'm beamin' <br />
<br />
Yeah, it's me again, the guy from verse two <br />
Well, this the last one, it's almost curfew <br />
It's almost night out, so turn your lights on <br />
Where all my 760s, witcha brights on? <br />
Yeah, they are the ones to keep your eyes on <br />
Like how we used to do, to keep the house warm <br />
Now those the type of eyes, I not cry from <br />
You see the tears of fire run out my cryin' songs <br />
Now the world's shoulders is what we cryin' on <br />
The world's fast lane is what I'm drivin' on <br />
What am I driving at? I'm tryna drive it home <br />
I'm in the driver's seat, but you can ride along <br />
'Cause never cyclops, it's never I alone <br />
I'm tellin' your story wherever I perform <br />
Now if they lookin' for me, tell 'em I've gone <br />
Out in the bright lights, right where I belong <br />
<br />
They said my future was dark <br />
You see me now? <br />
Just look around <br />
I'm beamin' <br />
<br />
They used to talk <br />
When I wasn't around <br />
You see me now <br />
I'm beamin'
<br><br><br><br>
