Touch The Sky Lyrics

[Hook]
I hold my head up just enough to see the skies
And when we go we won't go slow we'll put up such a fight
And you will be one day exactly what you are
Just keep your head held high
Kiss your fist and touch the sky

[Verse 2]
I'll never slow down
I'm a come and go ni--a
They won't appreciate you
Till you dead and gone ni--a

I gotta reinvent myself
At times I prevent myself
From shinin' too hard on you ni--as
Gotta tint myself
I think about the life I live
And where a ni--a goin' to
Young Brett Farve
But I know who the fuck I'm throwin' to
You're chillin' in your 4-2
Play action force you to blitz
Man I'm goin deep, all in yo bitch
Ni--as cheap money talks
Speak up, I don't read lips

Got a list of people I don't fuck with
Leave 'em pissed, tryna block my shine
Puff Daddy in the eclipse
Steven Spielberg with the words I don't need scripts
You better stop 'em before he turn into a problem
Being real and this young is abnormal
With that being said, shit I'd probably be dead before I get to the top

Either way I touch the sky, ni--a
[Hook]
I hold my head up just enough to see the skies
And when we go we won't go slow we'll put up such a fight
And you will be one day exactly what you are
Just keep your head held high
Kiss your fist and touch the sky

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

The Sample used is “Kiss The Sky” by Shawn Lee’s Ping Pong Orchestra Ft. Nino Mochella. I produced this record and chopped the sample after I heard the song on the first season finale of Eastbound & Down.

Kirko actually forgot about this record after recording it in 2010 but I gave it to him in the studio the day he was finalizing the Progression 2 (2012) tracklist.
