LUPE FIASCO-FAILURE (instrumental)

[@Jaymez2012]

This isn't a Jay-Z song, Lupe had this beat first on his Fahrenheit mixtape back in 2006, Drake flipped it on his Comeback Season mixtape just a year later in 2007, Lupe absolutely ripped this beat though, way better than Drake, his wordplay is absolutely thought provoking.

[@fiftytimez]

people could try...but i don't think anyone could top Lupe on this one...he owned this beat with his lyrics

[@ayyonmichaels9731]

i feel like i did... no shade to Lu.

[@Uwawe]

GReat man!! I was looking for these to put in my alarm to wake up. I wanna wake up with this rhythm (lol)

[@Wh0rse]

when I read this my inner monologue automatically rapped it to the beat coming from the video. Thank you.

[@im2chicago]

juelz santana this is me, from '05 had a dope version too

[@DookieJuice1111]

one if the sickest beats

[@crashonthehumble]

Thank God for the flow, and appreciate the feedback live long and prosper brethren.

[@Wynton25]

@jrocEnglishClass i think lupe made the beat, then j.c and drake just rapped on it, oh and j.c.'s version is different with the drums, so im guessing he chopped and screwed it from lupe's failure. Hope this helped

[@Rondy808]

How creative is rhyming jerk with itself five times good job money4madness

[@twiztidlestat]

I thumbed up ALL the flows. Keep em up yall.

[@dxviation]

Lupe massacred this song!! I had to use a lot of resources just to understand the first verse! My favorite EMCEE!

[@ayyonmichaels9731]

mine to... greatest of all time.

[@ZAWaiPro]

thanx homey. this beat is so sick

[@AceThunder21]

Surprised Ab-Soul has never gone in over this.

[@TheRealRALI]

@JvanThaBeast *Correction It's called "On Top The World" he wrote his verse for Jay-Z, search J. Cole talks about On Top of The World. You can't miss it.

[@Nunchuck]

thatI can respect! the womp idea was a nice dig.

[@supafamouskid]

man i think ive one every lupe instramental and i like reading ur text freestyles dont lisen to those ppl out there okay..its a gewd way to see wut ppl think of ur skillz

[@MartellThaCool]

instant sub dude!

[@walterclark9821]

The ups and downs overcame my failure. So I'm much more resourceful then at first thought. Made my own lane blood sweat and tears. Not trying be anything but black and me. Success is my only option failure is not. I'm focused so I'm up before the sun. On the grind cause time waits for no one. You make fast ones be careful no everyone is your friends. It's foul in these streets like a restroom seat. Keep your wealth hidden and your pride strong never forget where you come from. Food for thought now you do the dishes.

[@ss6truks]

pray for you if you pray for me, momma had to be string like roots on a tree, when im grindin and hustlin i feel no pain, like a month in sunshine without any rain, but when alls said and done, im alone the only one, standin here wit pride, seen my momma cried, many nights and days, hopin for shine from the suns rays, but i keep it straight real, sit back and chill, just another day i have to get ill.

[@rokubar]

Classic song. Who produced this?

[@timothyalan34]

this beat is a spiritual classic come down from my shooting star and throw some miracle past it its sad that i only a handful of lyrical rappers and the others talking guns like pitiful clappers had to change my style up turn it more lyrical it took a while but im happy with the results im feeling like a president with lyrical votes so throw ya octagons and im still not stoppin cause im The Entertainer nigga like Scott Joplin

[@MikeMunday222]

i had this beat 8 years ago. i believe nottz produced it. dont know how i got ahold of it but this was some time ago. 2003ish

[@mrs9thwonder]

so sick. who produced this?

[@owene869]

Prolyfic

[@misguidence]

the groove in the soul every step precise like the shoes with the the sole im choosing my role either attack or defend yo i move with a goal a few with the whole teammates try to slide home but they abusin the pole a crew with a stroll individuals dont measure up like a pool filled with trolls

[@ZAWaiPro]

@jrocEnglishClass both beats use the same sample. and since the sample makes up like 90 % of both beats they sound the same. lupe added the guitar and a new kick snare pattern. Jcole didnt really add anything just chopped the sample up. the sample in the beggining of Idris Muhammad - Could Heaven Ever Be Like This. if you listen to it you will see what im talking about. they just flipped the same sample slightly different.

[@baboo2byc]

im lovin his instrumentals and freestylin to them next best "Dizzy" w/R.A.D.

[@maztakeef420]

yes at one point in my life i was a failure, never know where im goin let the wind be the sailor, dont ever listen to what they tell ya, the false doubts they sell ya, seein dark clouds no umbrella, everybody rainin on ya parade, i dont need to be rich, jus the reputation, the honor, the name, of my father who gave, me hell in the past, sayin i wouldnt be shit, so i stayed on the grass, barely made it to class, too high too fly, wingin it to pass...

[@caribind3]

yeaaah!

[@Innit2winnit199]

@85Warrior2010 They sampled the same song but flipped it differently, both are really good beats

[@benwarters]

yo thats a sick verse can i use like the first 4 lines? ill give u credz if i post it anywhere

[@MonitaLaDreamer]

in..sane !

[@shadowh4ck]

dope.

[@kapr3cious]

This is the instumental to This is Me by Juelz Santana with couple of extra stuff put in

[@JohnDoughFourTwo0]

Shit, once again im stayen up all night, Dozen of, vision blurred, all i see's black & white, I'm slipen on into dreams, Youre slipen on outta sight, I accidentally strangled the game, cuz my grip was too tight, Im zoned on outta my mind, this message is undefined, But through words is the only way that i can unwind, Until declined, or i resign, Im all hope for mankind, Youre all behind, everytime, i speak the planets align, I bring that oldschool back, call me the remind, Thats how im defined.

[@13perspectives]

Something like an animal, lying on the beats Somethng like an animal, dying in the streets Feel it in the air, lookin for a seat Tell him to come on around and let me hear the chief Cause the chief knows the way, to capital building I'd rather be up there than locked up in the ceiling Starin through the mirror, tryna get some air In the king's lair, About to spark the flare

[@bigthingspoppinoff]

thanks bro...take it easy.

[@gotsteeze92]

im diggin the 2 last bars

[@ss6truks]

feel the beat i spit poerty straight floerty i got it all on lock, tough on the streets had to be hard as a rock, but now i look back and think was it all a dream, had to dope boy in order to get the cream, life wasa struggle,the cold hrad hustle, learned as a boy had to depend on my self, went through childhood without noones help, goin to law school gunna make 6 figures, no more stealin thuggin and pullin gun triggers, sit back in listen i got a story to speak, tell it raw from the birds beak

[@gedbeat15]

He said "When I was po' i was lo', now me and my Chaps cop Purple Label" "She wasn't Fed-Ex (fed ecstacy) like overnight" he is the God of Chi-Town!

[@maztakeef420]

the universal mind control everytime i flow i lose my mind n go, too crazy, im like chuck norris in the 80s, or jack morrison wit rabies, nowadays these, kids turned warriors as babies, they die young, no signs of aging, another book wit endless pages to sign they name in, their time to be taken, they were on top of it all, didnt feel the tower shakin, now they fall n the impact's got my world shaken, that's why i get high, never regret or a defend a lie, never no stress if yous a friend of mine

[@Knowledg3X]

diction = word choice nice

[@keepiticy]

i actually agree no one can keep up with lupe not even me

[@xxjoexx20]

[@ton4real474]

[@Cohiba28]

Failure..Never let it hit me So i avoid the punches by moving swiftly Hoping it never picks me So i keep pen to pad Write theser rough drafts As time passes My brain enters no lapses I decapitate.. The state. of the page becomes late.. It passes away Those who tell me these words arent deep Between the lines,they don't read SO they don't see.. My mother i will never failure So that erases one of my options goodbye failure

[@Nunchuck]

how i get these cold flows that still so underground so low that with lava they lounge/ like biggie large with the sound i'm large in the town/so u charlie brown rappers get stripped of ya mound/good grief/i'm so sick with no symptoms found/so ure raps get a "psh" like switched switch sound/i switch sounds like wezzy relaxed ona instrumental and still stay fly like continental/da pusher when u need the rock-u call/ and i roll right round and give the hits to yall/ NUNCHUCK!

[@KauTi0N]

you see im.. fed up with life and the pace that it rides by sliding away underfoot im taking one chance to become and accomplish my dream and im getting no where so far as it seems see i never bet upon fame i ust get it on when im on the mic i possess what u've ever longed for as a lyricist missed im mistaken for teenage hopeless IM PISSED take in my heavy weight form as i devastate born with the renegade talent i will never take no as a full stop i will levitiate higher i skylark

[@ss6truks]

Since were freestyling im ballin, rhyming is my calling, im spitting hot fire like an active volcano, when battle me its all of the above like maino, i dont stop the myrical, my rhymes straight lyrical, im doper than a crack head, im like ADD without meds, balance like ritalin, your thumbs your twiddling, cuz im hot like a stove, worth more money than a treasure trove, but when alls said and done, the rhymin was for fun, but i rip it up lke confetti, chop and screw it like a machete, peace.

[@youngthrill]

ur a genius! i cudnt find dis nowhere fank u b!!!

[@KillinTracks]

@AfghanStarProduction your first four bars are from actual songs..

[@blacky3ard]

I got ice all over my windshield I can tell it's gon' be a cold winter I hit the defrost, I never turn the heat off And still I'm so chilly willy snowflake These silly billies really fail to act as if they know Drake Always gossipin' callin' and textin' Magneto n*ggas tryna bring down ex-men Tellin' my ex-girl tryin' to explain How I am no good, so go with the next man, but dog You don't know me, you don't know us We go by the name of A-T-F, and any previous affiliation They know to hold they tongue and I spare 'em humiliation I know you in and out, n*gga I am not playin' Just fall back, keep on Escape'in and Alize'in And stop tryna act like you like me and my team Not us, so you knock us, that's precisely what I mean And dog, it's forever clear, my money evergreen My presence required in places you have never been It's all in a day's work, that's what I am on NBC, MTV, Viacom And whose Continental GT is outside Showin' them how monumental he be? One wheel on the curb, ticket on the dash It's like every f*ckin' summer I just switch it on they ass And maaan I'm a commodity, none of them as hot as me The industry standard, so I am what they gotta be Cause Drake's syllables is like Jake Gyllenhaal Can't help it, I been brainwashed to kill 'em all I think I should pass my own amendment You frontin' with glass all in your pendant You ain't livin', rapper, you never have been You a has-been, a gas station attendant Your man is a turkey, you wit' a liar I'm clearin' the air, I'm a humidifier I'm spittin' fire, and gettin' flyer And what you plannin' for this summer, I did it prior I've shattered shows in tattered clothes Met status quos, this is the South And I am, present when it matters most The startin's hot but pay attention to my latter flows Givin' brain ain't bad girl, don't be that opposed I flatter hoes And drink Dom, they always ask me, "Is that a rose?" "You mean Rosé? Why yes it is" I stopped trying years ago, this is effortless I'm in your house got the key to your home I am Jeopardy asked Wikipedia known I am A.A. driven and Expedia flown So stop jackin' my style, you're in need of ya own, man

[@yoyoyoaliman]

I like this song although I never fail Just a temporary setback. I'll still prevail You got to keep yo head up, even if the air is stale Fake rappers stabbing at the game. It's losing blood and looking pale I'm the doctor that will perform the surgery I'm a smooth criminal. I get away with burglary You need to listen up if you say you ain't heard of me I'm moving so fast all the haters are just a blur to me

[@LilMrsBizzyBone]

@jrocEnglishClass he did make a beat similar....it just used the same sample.

[@KillinTracks]

Drake did this song, Its called Comeback Season, its dope, i dont think he sampled it he used the actual beat.

Man, Yeezy was just here an hour ago >_>

[@bigthingspoppinoff]

@DDLQ17 You already know - Lupe is the creator and destroyer of this beat. No one should even come near it since he went in on it.

[@thinking2015]

What matters is notches in my timeline/ If I'm doing something different every 5yrs....then growth wise, I'm doing fine The seperation between LUV & HATE is a thin line/ & lately I feel hated...but I turn it into motivation.......to soon say " Momma I made it" save your work checks you living on my dime! I go H.A.M with AH cheeez/ even tho the BREAD seldomly leaves/ crust in the stiching in my dungerees/ for that little girl, I'm an ALTRUIST......even if I have to AIM to PLEASE!

[@ZAWaiPro]

thanx dog.

[@JohnDoughFourTwo0]

@Rockgod407 Thanks man. & i guess.. As long as you give me credit its part of one of my songs on my mixtape already but, if you give cred. It's all good.

[@phantoms240]

let me comfort the beat so just chill and relax in your seat and watch the words speak pullin incredible feats i sneak and creep as i reach for the heat whip it out the holster watch your shoulders or get rocked like a boulder the motha fuckin soldier resilient brilliant double dessert holder watch them friends as hearts get colder and im tryin 2 get your girly to come closer so i told her how do you know you wont like me more than your boy friend? i keep cool and get to know her..

[@HeavyBarsProductions]

Im never guna fail/ im never lettin up/ Bring haterz down to scale an ante up/ this cant be luck/ I stand 4 wut ? i stand 4 real hiphop-thez criticz iz twisted/ im on another level koz thez lyricz r gifted/ itz critical how u can u listen an stil get lifted/ an i advise.. that start listnin/ open ya eyes an gaze upon a true vision/ im talkn literal im bringn that heat / press play an dont hesitate to speak !

[@bigthingspoppinoff]

prayer seems to turn water to milk and it seems to change rags to silks but from it, can the ground up my dreams be built? I'm so down trodden keep raising Cain until the world bows at my feet and erases my pain my brain's designed like a penny thoughts of a copper laced with an Abe L/Abel mindset so as they all bows their heads they'll be done correct-ly kick down walls of democracy I'm a totalitarian mixed with a little Bruce Lee and we'll see if who tries to stop me by chopping at my knees.

[@MikeMunday222]

i think this was produced by nottz?

[@NySim16]

from my view its im like swinging way above the lanes/ sorry pete it feels like im doing mary jane/ spewing over the net a web that can even stop a plane/ constrict so these bugs are feeling nothing but pain/ i'll reveal their true nature as i liquify their insides with my toxic gas and solid rhymes/ they no longer matter as they lack brain mass/ into the past they fade/ from my mind they phase/ I then pump the base and the crank the volume/ head expands wit blood and knowledge from this tune

[@SPDemon420]

techniques like 2 personalities spew both to view similarities they comprehend vent then glare for beef mute both n proceed for more therapy i cant speak on both behalf's ones uptight and the other dont view life the same 23 years of manipuled emotions they point n say im to blame my only resolution is evolution...i sustain then i obtain motives to keep goin remain unresolved - i let go of pause they both go off - tempers bust n never stop i got thoughts wishin they could call the cops..

[@JRoss911]

Gotta b true to urself its good for ur mental health/Either play lifes games poke her in da face and flop da cards thats dealt/Yea some say life stinks but whoever smelt it dealt it as a kid you truly only know somethin burns after u felt it/Theres a certain significance, you can find deliverance in ignorance/While being too dilligent you can become belligerent/Rebelling from da worlds wickidness can make you a millitant/Things get deep like valley's of a mountaings peak/
