We dream so long

Just remember when [bad word] up 
The show goes on

Have you ever had the feelin' that you was bein' had? 
Don't that [bad word] there make you mad? They treat you like a slave 
Put chains all on your soul and put whips up on your back 
They be lyin' through they teeth, hope you slip up off your path 
I don't switch up, I just laugh, put my kicks up on they desk 
Unaffected by they threats, then get busy on they [bad word] 
See, that how that Chi-town made me, that's how my daddy raised me
That glitterin' may not be gold, don't let nobody play me 
If you are my homeboy, you'll never have to pay me 
Go'n and put your hands up, when times is hard, you stand up 
L-U-P the man, cuz, the brand that the fans [bad word] 
So even if they ban us, they'll never slow my plans up

One in the air for the people ain't here 
Two in the air for the father that's there 
Three in the air for the kids in the ghetto 
Four for the kids that don't wanna be there 
None for the niggas tryna hold them back 
Five in the air for the teachers not scared 

[ From: [bad word] /www [bad word] the-show-goes-on-lyrics-lupe-fiasco.html ]

To tell those kids that's livin' in the ghetto 
That the niggas holdin' back that the world is theirs 
Yeah, yeah, the world is yours, I was once that little boy 
Terrified of the world, now I'm on a world tour 
I will give up everything, even start a world war 
For these ghetto girls and boys I'm rappin' 'round the world for 
Africa to New York, Haiti, then I detour 
Oakland out to Auckland, Gaza Strip to Detroit 
Say hip-hop only destroy, tell 'em look at me, boy 
I hope your son don't have a gun and never be a D-boy

So no matter what been through, no matter what you into 
No matter what you see when you look outside your window 
Brown grass or green grass, picket fence or barbed wire 
Never ever put them down, you just lift your arms higher 
Raise 'em 'til your arms tired, let 'em know you here 
That you [bad word]  survivin', that you gon' persevere 
Ain't nobody leavin', nobody goin' home 
Even if they turn the lights out, the show is goin' on 

All right, already
