Rich Perez - Uptown lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Yeah, the(?) love ran from me

Wash Heights, stand up! Get it to be done

Cuz I'mma stick around until the body rest

Down the block, head down, shoutin' que-lo-que?

Betta yet, I plant roots, let the seeds grow

Hands to the dirt, trust God till I till I see my death

Cuz then I'm off to the next one

I'm livin' for the city and the skies like the jets, we aim high

The kind of stuff that you tell sons and you tell daughters

I leave it as I see(?), Cadillac a rim father

I'm not takin' try hard, I'm takin' trust God

Made, king, made, king, uh(?!)

Cuz sometimes it seems like you won't see

But you can sure listen well like Ray Charles

A money shame cuz he's fallen

He is the father like Vader, salute to the savior, this

(Hook)

Uptown, Uptown, Uptown (Uptown)

Uptown, Uptown, Uptown (Uptown)

Uptown, Uptown, Uptown (Uptown)

Uptown, Uptown, Uptown (Uptown)

(Verse 2)

They say that kids mess yo brains up

Styles gettin' cramped up

Help em out Ruben, and tell em young'ns put em hands up

Man up! Kids are an answer

Kinda like men are from God so we can invent

I remember vividly, mom with her hair up

Clean it up, and our pops makin' that ?

Ma, I miss you, those were the days, plus ? on that radio

Yeah, old skool heads know what's up!

Yeah, I got to see this picture growin' up

See the bigger picture up in genesis

A father lovin', serpent leadin' up in every crib

Can you picture God tellin' his creation

That He made us and was mistaken?

Nathan: 'God is a father like none'

He drew up the plan, in the center was his son

The Savior!

(Hook)

Uptown, Uptown, Uptown (Uptown)

Uptown, Uptown, Uptown (Uptown)

Uptown, Uptown, Uptown (Uptown)

Uptown, Uptown, Uptown (Uptown)
