Kick Push

Uh, what up y'all!

Soundtrack what's popping baby?

Y'all ain't know, I go by the name of Lupe Fiasco

Representing that first and fifteen

Jyea, uh!

And this one right here

I dedicate this one right here

To all my homies out there grinding

You know what I'm saying?

Legally and illegally

Hahaha..

You know what I'm talking about?

So, check it out

First got it when he was six

Didn't know any tricks

Matter of fact first time he got on it he slipped

Landed on his hip

And bust his lip

For a week he had to talk with a lisp

Like THISSSSS

Now we can end the story right here

But shorty didn't quit there was something in the air

Yea, he said it was something so appealing

He couldn't fight the feeling

Something about it

He knew he couldn't doubt it

Couldn't understand it

Brand it, just the first kickflip he land it

Uh, labeled a misfit, a bandit

Kakunk Kakunk Kakunk!

His neighbors couldn't stand it so

He was banished to the park

Started in the morning wouldn't stop 'til after dark

Yea, when they said, "It's getting late in here..

...so I'm sorry young man there's no skating here"

And so he kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, coast

And away he rolled

Just a rebel to the world with no place to go

And so he kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, coast

So come and skate with me

Just a rebel

Looking for a place to be

So let's kick...and push...and coast

My man got a little older

Became a better roller

Yea, no helmet, hellbent on killing himself

That's what his mama said, but he was feeling himself

Got a little more swagger in his style

Met his girlfriend she was clapping in the crowd

Love is what what was happening to him now

Uh, he said I would marry you

But I'm engaged to these arials and variels

And I don't think this board is strong enough to carry two

She said Bow, I weigh 120 pounds

Now, let me make one thing clear

I don't need to ride yours

I got mine right here

So she took him to a spot

He didn't know about

Something odd in the apartment parking lot

She said I don't normally take dates in here

Security came and said, "I'm sorry there's no skating here"

And so they kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, coast

And away they rolled

Just lovers intertwined with no place to go

And so they kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, coast

So come and skate with me

Just a rebel

Looking for a place to be

So let's kick...and push...and coast

Before he knew he had a crew

That wasn't no punk

And they spitfire shirts

And SB dunks

They would push 'til they couldn't skate no more

Office building lobbies wasn't safe no more

And it wasn't like they wasn't getting chased no more

Just the freedom was better than breathing they said

Any escape route they used to escape out

When things got crazy

They needed to break out

They head to any place with stairs

Any good grinds

The world was theirs

Uh, and their four wheels would take them there

Until the cops came and said, "There's no skating here"

And so they kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, kick push, coast

And away they rolled

Just rebels without a cause with no place to go

And so they kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, kick push, coast

So come roll with me

Just a rebel

Looking for a place to be

So let's kick...and push...and coast
