Spaceship Lyrics

[Intro]
Uhh baby (x2)

[Verse 1: Alex Wiley]
Blast off [uhh baby)
It's the motherfucking time now

Dug a deep ditch when i quit school, but this rapping shit helping me climb out
Me and Chancellor, fuck you tahm bout
Village shittin' on niggas in time out
When im feeling this all that i rhyme 'bout
Me and Kembe grindin' in the grind house
Asking where I wanna go, who I wanna be
My life is nothing more than ripping all these beats
And that's the way i want it im trippin'
Of the weed and that im sippin' on at least you
Tipping, fuck you mean
Gotta get mine, gotta fucking win
Gotta bring the Village, I gotta represent it
I gotta keep on pushing, gotta keep on working
I can't stop yelling fuck though, I gotta keep on shittin'

All we wanna do is get money
Seem like errbody want some shit from me
Like put me on with this and hook me on with that
Find your way up off my dick homie
Remember I used to keep the sacks with me
In the basement, watching that Rap City
Niggas used to say I rap shitty, funny
Now them niggas want a track with me

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 [?]

About

Genius Annotation

A take on fellow Chicago artist Kanye West’s “Spaceship” from his album “The College Dropout,” which also featured GLC as well as Consequence. Here Wiley and Chance The Rapper take on the same concept, trying to get up and away from the everyday grind to make it in music. GLC drops some knowledge as always and his presence on the track pays homage to the original. Church! ISM!

The music video pairs this song with “Navigator Truck” from the album Village Party 2: Heaven’s Gate, also featuring Chance the Rapper.
