Kweli, Talib - Push Thru Lyrics
[Hook: Glensky]
High rises, day breaks
Clouds hide the sun’s rays
Quick sand and mistakes
Smash walls to get through
Even on the bad days
It’s darkest before light
I’m gonna push through
[Verse 1: Curren$y]
Turbo charged bars
Slot cars on tracks, falling off, game stars in these rap wars
Ain’t nothing band-aids won’t cover
Touring with 7D coverage
Live bands, two buses, my own cash
We went from crawling to walking to running
You can’t see nothing, you under gag order
Hopping out of Audi’s hurting y’all with kicks, I’m the Transporter
Think about it, never mind, you ain’t gotta
I’m already on some whole other, word to yo mu’fuckin’ self
Nobody else gon’ do it for ya, nobody else
Every now and then someone’ll offer ya help, but they ain’t doing nothing
‘Til they really see you tryna do something, I ain’t bluffing
Kush puffing on you jive turkeys
Stuffing stockings with these gifts
Audible applaudables homie take a wiff
[Hook]
[Verse 2: Talib Kweli]
When you a man, action is what’s expected, nothing is spoken on
Producer never got time for no excuses, gotta go beyond
My flow is tom-foolery
I smoke these poor rappers so fast they call me charcuterie
I beautifully exude the vibe that’s free of ambiguity
Ya goonery for the sake of goonery is cartoons to me
It’s coonery, it’s lunacy, let’s make a plan
Only way that you hang is attached to a tree
The moon talk to the sea and speak the body language fluently
She make it rain
When I’m on fire, she always try to douse me
Only reason that you make it rain is ‘cause your diamonds cloudy
I see you from a mile away when it get overcast
Old people feel it in they bones, invade your home like a broken glass
And let myself in, fighting for freedom like the people in Tunisia
Spread through Sudan and Egypt, this the music for the movement
The score to your achievements, never join ‘em so you gotta beat ‘em
It’s carpe diem hey (hey) yeah
[Hook]
[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
Like kindergarteners
My vision’s bothered by vigilantes that harbor on street corners
Try your hardest to harvest bundles of weed on ya
The starving’ll speed on ya, stampede on ya
Impede on your pockets then pee on ya
Dreams of us living lavish in fabrics of fine linens
Spending, established, with women dining and laughing
But this environment got us violent, ready to crash in
To society, take this driver seat, hope you fastened
Your seatbelts twice, when I rolled them dice, I crapped
So many times I can build casinos from scratch
Too many daps you might receive from the things you achieve, relax
That’s what my mental say, but my physical’s been detached, I’m on some other shit
Like fuck the government, I’m higher rankings, where’s the mothership?
I made a covenant that I was changing but my luck is bent
Quite disgusting when reality tainted, where the fuck you been?
Left him face down like he was planking
In a cold world where old girl and her homeboy got a motive
You can bench curl your tribulations, that sensation’s insulting
Got a wifey or a mistress, nigga which one you indulging?
Regardless of who you pick know life’s a bitch when you ain’t focused nigga
I’m focused
[Hook]

Wow what a throwback for me
Wow what a throwback for me
Lot's of memories.. 2018 still rocking shit
Kweli makes the video directors look bad... too too active for the vibe of the song.
I wish Ab Soul, Rapsody and Common was on this as well
1.4 mln views. What a joke
Love the vibe
"I beautifully exude the vibe that’s free of ambiguity" Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttttttttt
When Kendrick was about to be a star
Listening in 2018...and for EVER Bitches!!!!
Best verse from Kendrick ever I'm waiting on him to surpass it just my humble opinion
rhyming comes soooooo easy for kendrick huh.. dont it.. killed it
i love everything abt this song.. i can even listen to juss the instru the whole day..
hmmm.. i didnt really like the first guy..
talib kweli ni mwalimu
talib kweli ni mwalimu

Kendrick Lamar 2012 reminds me of Shia Labeouf lol.

#MOVEMENTMUSIC #ITSCOPYWRITTEN
Kush puffin on your jive Turkeys haha love Curren$y
This is from 2012?! Man this feels so much more recent than that must have been ahead of its time by a few years
I wake up only to listen to this today
Awesome South Africa
Who listening in 2017?
🙌🏾
Power!!!!
Those drums doe...
I love this video, its so humble.
🛫🛫
almost all talib's features shows illminded mc's
Am i the only one whos thinking that Kendrick just killed it ?
actually think they all killed it in their own way
Gotta push thru!
I loved this track so much that I had to do a mashup https://soundcloud.com/rhodri-2/mash-up-bootsy-collins-munchies-vs-taleb-kweli-push-thru
3 years from now I'm late but I was here 2016 and guess what? I'm gonna Push Thru
Only thing missing is somebody spittin from Chicago.
real ill $hit
didn't Curren$y do this verse on another track??? i know he did
this is the jam that really made Kendrick and he never honoured kweli for his involvement in his push to the limelight
GKMC made Kdot mainstream
"Life's a bitch when you ain't focused".
I'm focused...
Phuck your opinion if your comparing any of these dudes verses why not appreciate 3 different styles on one song making it 🔥🔥🔥🔥
combining did
word✌✌
Fredo Tovar je jebeno ime.
Oh yeah! I remember this!!
Gooder artistic massive amounts of pEATer no Paul
Kendrick
I never heard of this guy till this video on a random Youtube playlist but im a fan now!
this hard as fuck
Heaven!!
Curren$y kill this shit. fuck.
love curren$y
my man talib so underated
LdotA. 🙌🏽
I can't be the only one who thinks the chorus is perfect?
+Clayton Jones u can hear it in the flow if u pay attention
Ryan Hamlett
talib is a teacher
Yeah, you're the only one.
Yes its very sold out c:
That kendrick verse is CRAZY
Back no one knew about kendrick Lamar apart from the people who rocking with him before all the fame
+Troy H Not everyone, but he did have a buzz in the urban culture. He had less than 1million twitter followers before gkmc. That's far from everyone. Now he's making songs with Taylor Swift and getting Grammy nominations out the wazoo. With 5million+ Twitter followers. Now it's fair to say "everyone".
na. 2012 people knew him. 2009 when his EP nobody knew him
This was months before GKMC. He was one of the biggest lower level names in hip-hop thanks to Section.80. Wasn't massive mainstream but still pretty damn big.
Nuff people knew about kendrick at this point think before making inaccurate statements
Nah he drop GKMC in 2012 he was a superstar this song drop in 2013
I-fux-wit-dis Talib A genius, Lamar the eloquent lyricist, Spitta = Choppa lyricist.
