Lyrics
0:03I gotta testify
0:04Come up in the spot looking extra fly
0:07For the day I die I'mma touch the sky
0:12Gotta testify
0:13Come up in the spot looking extra fly
0:16For the day I die I'mma touch the sky
0:20Back when they thought pink polo's
0:21Would hurt the Roc
0:22Before Cam got the sh*t to pop
0:24The doors was closed
0:25I felt like Bad Boy's street team
0:27I couldn't work the Lox locks
0:29Now let's go
0:30Take 'em back to the plan
0:31Me and my momma hopped in the U-Haul van
0:33Any pessimists I ain't talked to them
0:36Plus I ain't have no phone in my apartment
0:39Let's take 'em back to the club
0:40Least about an hour I would stand on line
0:42I just wanted to dance
0:43I went to Jacob an hour after I got my advance
0:46I just wanted to shine
0:47Jay's favorite line: "Dog in due time"
0:49Now he look at me like "Damn
0:51Dog you where I am"
0:52A hip hop legend
0:53I think I died in an accident
0:55Cause this must be heaven
0:57I gotta testify
0:58Come up in the spot looking extra fly
1:01For the day I die I'mma touch the sky
1:06Gotta testify
1:07Come up in the spot looking extra fly
1:10For the day I die I'mma touch the sky
1:13Now let's take 'em
1:14High-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh la la la la la la la
1:20Top of the world baby T-Top of the world
1:22Now let's take 'em
1:23High-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh la la la la la la la
1:29Top of the world baby T-Top of the world
1:32Back when Gucci was the sh*t to rock
1:34Back when Slick Rick got the sh*t to pop
1:36I'd do anything to say "I got it"
1:38Damn them new loafers hurt my pocket
1:41Before anybody wanted K-West beats
1:43Me and my girl split the buffet at KFC
1:45Dog I was having nervous breakdowns
1:47Like "Damn these niggas that much better than me "
1:50Baby I'm going on an airplane
1:52And I don't know if I'll be back again
1:55Sure enough I sent the plane tickets
1:56But when she came to kick it
1:58Things became different
1:59Any girl I cheated on sheets I skeeted on
2:01I couldn't keep it home
2:02I thought I needed a Nia Long
2:04I'm trying to write my wrongs
2:05But it's funny these same wrongs
2:07Helped me write this song
2:08Now
2:09I gotta testify
2:10Come up in the spot looking extra fly
2:13For the day you die You gonna touch the sky
2:16You gonna touch the sky babygirl
2:18Testify come up in the spot
2:20Looking extra fly
2:22For the day you die You gonna touch the sky
2:25Yes yes yes guess who's on third
2:28Lupe steal like Lupin the Third
2:30Hear like ear till I'm beer on the curb
2:33Peach fuzz buzz but beard on the verge
2:35Slow it down like we're on the syrup
2:37Bottle-shaped body like Mrs Butterworth's
2:39But before you say another word
2:42I'm back on the block like I'm laying on the street
2:44I'm trying to stop lion like a Mum-Ra
2:46But I'm not lying when I'm laying on the beat
2:48Engarge touché Lupe cool as the unthawed
2:51But I still feel as possessed as a gun charge
2:53I come as correct as a porn star
2:55In a fresh pair of steps and my best foreign car
2:58So I represent the first
3:00Now let me end my verse right
3:01Where the horns are like
3:03I gotta testify
3:04Come up in the spot looking extra fly
3:07For the day you die
3:09You gonna touch the sky
3:10You gonna touch the sky babygirl
3:12Testify come up in the spot
3:14Looking extra fly
3:16For the day you die
3:18You gonna touch the sky
3:20We back at home baby
3:21Sky high
3:22I'm I'm sky high
3:25I'm I'm sky high
3:27I'm I'm sky high
