About

One of his earliest projects, “The Come Up” sees Polo G rap about his life growing up in the rough neighborhoods of Chicago, how he has been grinding for a better life, and the bonds he has with his gang.

The song samples Heather Headley’s September 2005 “In My Mind.”

The Come Up Lyrics

[Intro]
L's, L's
Lil' Capalot, man, look
You ain't gotta like me but I'ma make you feel, on my mama, haha

[Chorus]
What you know about late nights
Trappin' in the snow 'til your feet numb and your nose run?
What you know about rainy days when them skies are gray?
Nigga, we ain't see no sun
What you know about bein' piss poor?
'Member we was dead broke, man, that shit was no fun
What you know about war time when we had to slide?
So we went and bought more guns

[Verse]
Used to wake up so mad for no reason
'Member them days that depression was beatin' me
I use to wish I wasn't breathin'
The person I use to be died right in front of me
Life went too fast to start grievin'
Took some time to realize that you can't trust a soul
Nigga, that's when my heart started freezin'
One day I'm like, "Fuck it, I'm just gon' keep writin'"
And stress really started relievin'
Man, I ain't have nothing, just me and this rap shit
Somethin' told me just keep on believin'
Look at everything I've been achievin'
I look up and thank God for the man I'm becomin'
And blessings that I've been receivin'
I told 'em it's comin', they didn't wanna listen
They said, "How you know?" 'Cause I seen it
Bitch, ain't no competition, I run the North Side
I turnt up and took over my region
Long live 22, bro, I do this for you
Man, I swear I'm gon' ball every season
Can't forget number five, he just live through the guys
That's why all of us turned to some demons
And I feel like I'm three with this curry on me
Just might black out when I get to squeezin'
We need that lead, fuck tryna get even
Can't switch up on my niggas, I'm stuck with my niggas
Tell bro 'nem I pledge my allegiance
And I throw up these L's for them brothers I lost in the field
If you didn't know the meaning
Popped two Xans, hit the 'Wood, now I'm leanin'
Feel so good, got a young nigga fiendin'
Keep that fake shit away, I won't need it
'Cause you know everybody come around when the sun start shinin'
When it rain, they gon' go M.I.A
It's a lot of demons I be fightin' every day
But I tell 'em I'm straight when they say, "Is you okay?"
It's a lot of shit I done did in these streets
So I ask for forgiveness every time I pray
First day I got out here, they ain't even tell me shits
They like, "You ain't even like that, you just in the way"
Movin' house to house, everybody gettin' tired of my shit
Moments I didn't really have somewhere to lay
Now I spazz on tracks, got a sack, put the hood on my back
Nigga, ain't that weak shit you could say
I ain't have it good, man, this shit ain't no act
I was really with them boys in the hood like Trey
Growin' up a shorty, just stickin' together
But them shells broke bonds, some of us didn't even get to stay
If you fuck me over, I got somethin' for you
Don't think I forgot, it's just been a delay
I ain't gotta do it, give them hitters that deposit
Put some G's on your head like you play for Green Bay
My lil' niggas scorin' like Isaiah Thomas
He catch you loafin', that's mission accomplished
Keep pistols tucked 'cause tomorrow ain't promised
I'd rather go out with the heat like Udonis

[Chorus]
What you know about late nights
Trappin' in the snow 'til your feet numb and your nose run?
What you know about rainy days when them skies are gray?
Nigga, we ain't see no sun
What you know about bein' piss poor?
'Member we was dead broke, man, that shit was no fun
What you know about war time when we had to slide?
So we went and bought more guns
What you know about late nights
Trappin' in the snow 'til your feet numb and your nose run?
What you know about rainy days when them skies are gray?
Nigga, we ain't see no sun
What you know about bein' piss poor?
'Member we was dead broke, man, that shit was no fun
What you know about war time when we had to slide?
So we went and bought more guns
