Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco - Touch The Sky

[Chorus: Kanye West]
I gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin' extra fly,
For the day I die I'ma touch the sky.
Gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin' extra fly,
For the day I die I'ma touch the sky.

[Verse 1: Kanye West]
Back when they thought pink polos would hurt the Roc,
Before Cam got the shit to pop, the doors was closed,
I felt like Bad Boy's street team, I couldn't work the locks.
Now let's go, take ‘em back to the plan,
Me and my momma hopped in the U-Haul van,
Any pessimists, I ain't talked to them,
Plus, I ain't have no phone in my apartment.
Let's take ‘em back to the club:
‘Least about an hour I would stand on line,
I just wanted to dance.
I went to Jacob an hour after I got my advance,
I just wanted to shine.
Jay's favorite line: “Dawg, in due time!”
Now he look at me like, “Damn, dawg, you where I am!”
A hip hop legend.
I think I died in an accident, ‘cause this must be heaven.

[Chorus:]
I gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin' extra fly,
For the day I die I'ma touch the sky.
Gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin' extra fly,
For the day I die I'ma touch the sky.

[Brigde: Kanye West]
Now let's take ‘em high-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh,
Top of the world, baby, top of the world!
Now let's take ‘em high-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh,
Top of the world, baby, top of the world!

[Verse 2: Kanye West]
Back when Gucci was the shit to rock,
Back when Slick Rick got the shit to pop,
I'd do anythin' to say I got it,
Damn, them new loafers hurt my pocket.
Before anybody wanted K-West beats,
Me and my girl split the buffet at KFC.
Dawg, I was havin' nervous breakdowns
Like, “Man, these niggas that much better than me?”
Baby, I'm going on an airplane,
And I don't know if I'll be back again.
Sure enough, I sent the plane tickets,
But when she came to kick it, things became different.
Any girl I cheated on, sheets I skeeted on,
Couldn't keep it at home, thought I needed a Nia Long.
I'm tryna right my wrongs,
But it's funny, them same wrongs helped me write this song.

[Chorus:]
I gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin' extra fly,
For the day you die you gon' touch the sky.
You gon' touch the sky, babygirl!
Testify, come up in the spot, lookin' extra fly,
For the day you die you gon' touch the sky.

[Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco]
Yes, yes, yes.
Guess who's on third?
Lupe steal like Lupin the Third,
Here like ear till I'm beer on the curb,
Peachfuzz buzz but beard on the verge.
Let's slow it down like we're on the syrup,
Bottle shaped body like Mrs. Butterworth,
But before you say another word
I'm back on the block like I'm layin' on the street.
I'm tryin' to stop lion like I'm Mumm-Ra,
But I'm not lyin' when I'm layin' on the beat.
En guarde, touchér, Lupe cool as the unthawed,
But I still feel possessed as a gun charge.
Come as correct as a porn star,
In a fresh pair steps, in my best foreign car,
So, I represent the first,
Now let me end my verse right where the horns are.

[Chorus:]
I gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin' extra fly,
For the day you die you gon' touch the sky.
You gon' touch the sky, babygirl!
Testify, come up in the spot, lookin' extra fly,
For the day you die you gon' touch the sky.

We back at home, baby.
Sky high,
I'm, I'm sky high. [x5]
Sky, sky high.
I'm, I'm sky high.
Yeah! Keep it rollin'!
Feels good to be home, baby!
Feels good to be home!
