Me just right now. I was jumping when my friend told me what’ the title . Ive been whistling the beat for 1 week and im very thankful he remembered the title
Nostalgic banger. Takes me back to being a teen again in 2010-2011. You'd have to be alive during this era to know how special R&B and Hip Hop was during this time period. Hip Hop in the late 2000s and early 2010s was something special.
I feel this in my soul I’ve started my own business and my success is based on giving people a chance. But in life you will cross paths with good and bad people. But what I take from this song is never get discouraged or distracted follow your dreams because the show must go on.
When he mentions gaza my heart tears.. this song is so beautiful and if everyone could just have a heart and listen to the message maybe we could change... ah a man can dream
Already the show goes on all night 'Til the morning we dream so long Anybody ever wonder When they would see the sun up Just remember when you come up The show goes on! Have you ever had the feeling That you was being had Don't that shit that make you mad They treat you like a slave With chains all on your soul And put whips up on your back They be lying through they teeth Hope you slip up off your path I don't switch up I just laugh Put my kicks up on they desk Unaffected by their threats Then get busy on they ass See that's how that Chi-Town made me That's how my daddy raised me That glittering may not be gold Don't let nobody play me If you are my homeboy You never have to pay me Go on and put your hands up When times is hard you stand up L-U-P the man 'Cause the brand That the fans trust So even if they ban us They'll never slow my plans up!

When this song dropped I was getting bullied for liking Lupe. When this dropped litteraly the next week the same dudes was listening to this song. I was upset
My brother introduced me to this song years ago. He passed away almost three months ago, now I come back here just to cherish the memories of him. Gone too soon. Can't wait till I see you again. It's a blessing to have an older protective brother five years apart. Hated it but miss it like CRAZY now that he's gone. I'd do anything to hug him or have that protectiveness over me. I love you Joshua Santos 08/17/1985 - 03-16-2022 forever in my heart. 💯💖 THE SHOW GOES ON!!💥
Darrell Myers Yeah your comment was removed because of the sheer annoyance it provided me. I don't care about what your opinion is, there's a reason musicians are called artists and this is a prime example of what art should be. Something that sends a message and resonates deep inside of you. The fact that you feel the need to try and call this anything but art is annoying, and uncalled for. Nobody asked for your negativity son.
This song has helped me push through many hard days and bad times and reminded me that no matter the situation, we stand tall and face it. "Weeping may endure for the night, but joy comes in the morning." Psalms 30:5
PSALM 30 IN THE WILD! My absolute favorite chapter of the Bible! Amen brother/sister, keep on pushin' through and lookin up to Christ and walking as He did, every day is a blessing. Prayers for ya, G
This song helped me soooooo much too! 😍😍 The love of my life broke up with me two weeks ago and it came out of no where! Well he did tell me a month before he waa gpong to walk away if don't change my attitude and behaviour. So one day went to work and he packed his bags and left came home all his stuff had been gone. Listened to this song and the song 'The show must go on' For wrrks on ends and also aplogising to him i will be a better person and guess what last Friday he came iver cooked dinner for me and slept the night! If i keep been good this weekend he might just move back completely again! He said! He truelly wants to live with me forever! And it is onky me that is stopping that juat like the few times i allowed my self get the best of me and men i loved walked out the door! And never came back! So for the love of God hope this one stays with me! I just need to control my bloody emotions!!😬🙄😒
I’m so sorry man I can’t imagine what you went through. Just know he is watching over you and whenever you listen to this just think of it as honoring him.
He never vanished. The world just stopped listening. Last year he dropped one of his best albums. It has great depth, an outstanding theme, and has good production. Lupe is still developing and incorporating in his music some of the most thought provoking concepts and ideas. He is truly a pioneer. In the last album Drogas Waves, the theme is 3 parallel themes in 1. AND he develops the idea that black people and minorities deserve to have legends/mythological stories where they are the central protagonists and through these new legends/stories, these innocent victims of oppression (slaves and refugees) whose lives were taken, can be given the heroic and generally more positive narratives they truly deserve and with such, immortalized as greater-than-life heros. Ok but why do this? What is the purpose? What can a group of people gain from fictional stories? Can a history full of oppression and death for your people, full of bad winning over good innocent members of your race ...can this kind of history be a stigma for your people? I could go on and on! This is the kind of idea that one could do his graduate thesis on! What rapper is exploring such concepts/ideas in their music? Ill wait. Dont just give me a name. Give a summary of another example. No, he didnt vanish when the world needed him. People just stopped listening and caring. People just completely stopped holding morals and principles above money and fame.
Lupe Fiasco goes in soo hard on this right here! Only reason they aint getting more hits is cuz Lupe Fiasco aint just watchign that short *on my channel* explaining how all these rappers out here be blowing up so big
I remember listening to this as a kid wondering if I would make it out of my hometown and be successful, and just came back years later- I made it. Thank you Lupe for the motivation when I was a kid!
Crazy how songs leave this affect on us where we can physically feel something warm in our hearts when going back to these old songs. Time has really changed & im sure many people along with myself would do anything to go back and relive 7-10 years ago.
Everyone's nostalgia and emotions are honestly hitting me hard! I love how strangers across the world can join hands over a beautiful song about perseverance! Just beautiful 😢
I almost never do unless listening to a song, but I got shivers for some reason reading that, it’s a beautiful thing, with all the hate in the world I’m glad music will always be able to bring people together
This song is so uplifting!! And the fact that he’s specifically encouraging young black kids and telling them to avoid things that some glorify hits me in the heart!!
@@SaLvAdOriaN127 at least they would be original and actually written and created by the artist. Unlike anything Lupe Fiasco does. Dude was a one hit wonder and the hit wasn’t even his song. He stole it! 😂🤣😂🤣
who else misses the music from the start of 2010s?? i feel like this new music doesn’t slap the same as these classics. no women, no drugs , jus pure quality :(
I used to listen to this song while I was struggling with an eating disorder in hospital, 10 years ago. I turned on my old iPod and forgot about the whole world. Thank you, Lupe Fiasco, you made me grow up. PS: sorry for my bad English haha
Same. I'm a teacher and I still listen to this every day before my classes start. Hugely motivational; I can't half-ass it after listening to this song.
10 years ago, i was a sophomore in college in a small town, every night after finishing study in library, on the way back to domitory i was always listeining this song. as long as i put my earpods on and the shows goes on starts i just felt i was KING of world! Back in days it was impossible to imagine that 10 years later i m listening it again sitting in my room in another country far from family and old friends. likewise i will never know what my life will be like in another 10 years.
@@arsenal4L sampling is for talentless hacks he reused pretty much the entire song except for his monkey brained lyrics people think are deep for some reason lol he sucks that’s why no one cares about him
Coming back to this song has been an absolute blessing. Just thinking about how a decade ago I was a little boy with great ambitions and a blank slate on life is something else. Cheers to everyone coming back to this timeless gem. I hope we can all prosper and reach the end goal that we have always dreamed of.
Dude. This song deadass started my personality. It started me using deep critical thinking to assess the world and also started the confusing part of getting older. I was 13 when this song came out. Will never forget buying this on iTunes on my iPod Nano
Amen to that, I was barely making minimum wage 5yrs ago, now I’m making six figures. I hope everyone finds their way and hustle! Never settle for less 👌🏽
Coming from a group Home and having nothing to having my own home and cars this song carried me through the darkest days of my life and coming back to listen with different ears it definitely hits different
@@joeysalay7700 "Nostalgia is a hell of a drug" you'll be crying while smiling n shit!! Listening to this is like opening an old box of photos/memories.
This song brings me back to my middle school days... Such good times n my life, when my dad was still alive n I was just a typical kid who had no worries... What I'd do to go back to those days....
man. Wish my middle school years were good times. That’s the time when I moved for the first time in my life, and ended up getting bullied to no end. And for a cherry on top, that’s when I realized how disgusting of a man my dad is. 🙃
*2009: THIS SONG IS MY MOTIVATION TO SURVIVE SCHOOL EVERYDAY* *2019: THIS SONG IS MY MOTIVATION TO SURVIVE WORK EVERYDAY* *THIS SONG HITS HARDER AS WE COPE UP AS AN ADULT AND FACE THE REAL WORLD. I LIVE FOR THIS SONG. WHO’S WITH ME???*
Man I know most people say this is just nostalgia talking. But this song brings back so many memories of middle school and how things felt so simple. This right here is what hip hop should be motivational and not talking about all this killing and bs.
@@AnthonyL144 all they have to do is know a simple code known as Gematria it not only exposes the music, entertainment/ Hollywood but also the political agendas of the past, present and future… follow a channel by Zachary Hubert Gematria effect sports and Gematria effect news his channels have been deleted over 35+ times in 6 years he’s obviously doing something that these EVIL people don’t want you to know!!
@@dontgoalongjusttogetalong1822 yea I know what gematria is bro and I happen to already follow gematria sports/Zack lol he exposes sports, Hollywood and the government but he still has idiots in his comments that deny it which is crazy to me
Used to listen to this to empower myself as a kid who was never given props for anything I tried and constantly ridiculed. 2024, and listening to this while I’m killing it in life this very moment hits differently. Keep believing guys. We got this
I’m proud to tell you all that I officially graduated from high school on June 15th, 2021! Congratulations to my other fellow 2021 graduates! The Show Goes On!
@@d2mking_babygatez459 that day isn’t gonna be given to you, you have to work for it. But when you reach “the day”, you’ll be pretty satisfied. If not that you’ll be at your peak. As long as you don’t give up. Keep movin forward man
I remember the feeling of listening to this right after graduating high school. It’s crazy how much everything has changed since then. I’m married now, house, dang bruh 😭
+ƐƐƐɐʎdnllɐ who cares what they rap about ? Lol ............. This generation hip hop is so confused and if you think hip hop is all about booty drugs and trapping then you don't know hip hop, Old school hip hop showed examples and described life and changes .. New school hip hop all about guiding young people to sell drugs and fuck every person under the sun and turn up everyday .. That's not hip hop, of course we listen to it but if you wanna be technical that's shit 😅
+Amber Mai I agree to some point. A lot of new/recent rappers rap about enlightenment and spiritual stuff. You just have to find good artists. If you can't find anything, or when in doubt: MF DOOM. He is a legend of hip hop.
this song helped me a lot when i was a kid. growing up in poverty not having things that other kids had, wearing the same shoes and clothes and getting bullied for it. to any kids going through the same thing i went through, keep your head up and have patience, don't lose hope or yourself to the system. those same kids that bullied me are really messed up in life rn. lie to you not🙅🏽♂️. living healthier and better than them now😎
Where my 2020 people at listening to this song ever since they were little and brings back memories when your heard this song when they was little who my people at 😎😎
I was locked up in a maximum security prison in Joliet called Statesville, right outside of Chicago. All I had was a Walkman and this song on a cassette tape. I would listen to this song every day, looking out of my little cell window at all the barb wire and brown grass. the song would cut off halfway through so I would rewind it over, and over. Until one of the older guys told me you can flip the tape and it has another side to it. I would listen to this song and dream of everything I was going to do when I got out. This song has got me through times I thought were impossible. Now I’m glad to say I have accomplished everything I dreamed of and much more! It’s crazy how you learn to appreciate the little things in life that you never noticed before. Much love! No more ramen noodles or locked doors!
Its my 46th birthday 🎉and im sittin home vibin to this ..... Anyone reading this what my biggest lesson i can pass down to you is keep God first even if the world doesnt understand God does im a living witness. God bless yall.......... 😊❤✝️
Same here! I go down memory lane and go through n listen to all the songs of 2007 up to 2010 because IMO those were the best years and like you said- it lifts spirits 😁

One of the theme songs of 2000's, showin love to Lupe. Everyone on their grind, struggling or going through hard times keep ya head up. Africa to New York
When I was 12 years old I never thought this song would be anything more to me than a hype song... 13 years later and I can't put to words how meaningful it is. 25 is hard, but the show goes on. Much love to anyone strugglin.
Brown grass or green grass picket fence or bob wire love it Lupe this song hits a part of soul that no one can touch in these days of 3/2024. Pls lets bring back some music like this w/a more positive message instead get high,smoking, or in the clubs.

Already the show goes on all night
'Til the morning we dream so long
Anybody ever wonder
When they would see the sun up
Just remember when you come up
The show goes on!
Have you ever had the feeling
That you was being had
Don't that shit that make you mad
They treat you like a slave
With chains all on your soul
And put whips up on your back
They be lying through they teeth
Hope you slip up off your path
I don't switch up I just laugh
Put my kicks up on they desk
Unaffected by their threats
Then get busy on they ass
See that's how that Chi-Town made me
That's how my daddy raised me
That glittering may not be gold
Don't let nobody play me
If you are my homeboy
You never have to pay me
Go on and put your hands up
When times is hard you stand up
L-U-P the man
'Cause the brand
That the fans trust
So even if they ban us
They'll never slow my plans up!
[2x]
Alright
Already the show goes on all night
'Til the morning we dream so long
Anybody ever wonder
When they would see the sun up
Just remember when you come up
The show goes on!
One in the air for the people ain't here
Two in the air for the father that's there
Three in the air for the kids in the ghetto
Four for the kids that don't wanna be there
None for the niggas tryna to hold them back
Five in the air for the teacher not scared
To tell those kids that's living in the ghetto
That the niggas holding back that the world is theirs!
Yeah, yeah, the world is yours
I was once that little boy
Terrified of the world
Now I'm on a world tour
I would give up everything
Even start a world war
For these ghetto girls and boys I'm rapping 'round the world for!
Africa to New York
Haiti then I detour
Oakland out to Auckland
Gaza Strip to Detroit
Say hip-hop only destroy
Tell 'em look at me, boy!
I hope your son don't have a gun
And never be a D-boy
So no matter what you've been through
No matter what you're into
No matter what you see
When you look outside your window
Brown grass or green grass
Picket fence or barbed wire
Never ever put them down
You just lift your arms higher
Raise 'em 'til your arms tired
Let 'em know you're here
That you're struggling survivin'
That you gon' persevere
Yeah, ain't nobody leaving
Nobody goin' home
Even if they turn the lights out
The show is goin' on!
[2x]
Alright
Already the show goes on all night
'Til the morning we dream so long
Anybody ever wonder
When they would see the sun up
Just remember when you come up

My brother died two years ago today this was his favorite song😢
U will become successful for him watch I tell u
I’m so sorry man I can’t imagine what you went through. Just know he is watching over you and whenever you listen to this just think of it as honoring him.
I saw a comment exactly in the same situation as you on Schoolboy Q's song Break Da Bank music video
Keep your head up bro. He'd want you to

When the world needed artists like Lupe the most, he vanished.
Lol
He never left
Nigga he still around lmao
Lmaooo
He never vanished. The world just stopped listening. Last year he dropped one of his best albums. It has great depth, an outstanding theme, and has good production. Lupe is still developing and incorporating in his music some of the most thought provoking concepts and ideas. He is truly a pioneer.
In the last album Drogas Waves, the theme is 3 parallel themes in 1. AND he develops the idea that black people and minorities deserve to have legends/mythological stories where they are the central protagonists and through these new legends/stories, these innocent victims of oppression (slaves and refugees) whose lives were taken, can be given the heroic and generally more positive narratives they truly deserve and with such, immortalized as greater-than-life heros. Ok but why do this? What is the purpose? What can a group of people gain from fictional stories? Can a history full of oppression and death for your people, full of bad winning over good innocent members of your race ...can this kind of history be a stigma for your people? I could go on and on! This is the kind of idea that one could do his graduate thesis on! What rapper is exploring such concepts/ideas in their music? Ill wait. Dont just give me a name. Give a summary of another example.
No, he didnt vanish when the world needed him. People just stopped listening and caring. People just completely stopped holding morals and principles above money and fame.
2021?

Thanks bro!!
Thank you brother 🙏🏾❤️
I remember listening to this as a kid wondering if I would make it out of my hometown and be successful, and just came back years later- I made it. Thank you Lupe for the motivation when I was a kid!
Congratulations! I’m proud of you Isabel! Keep going!
Crazy how songs leave this affect on us where we can physically feel something warm in our hearts when going back to these old songs.
Time has really changed & im sure many people along with myself would do anything to go back and relive 7-10 years ago.
Early 2010s were special ❤️
I would do anything to go back I’m a 02 & god I miss the old days😔
Facts this song came out in 1st grade and feel like yesterday
I felt this on a different level. I basically listen to every old song I was hooked onto, and think the same. I'd give anything to go back 10 years.
Everyone's nostalgia and emotions are honestly hitting me hard! I love how strangers across the world can join hands over a beautiful song about perseverance! Just beautiful 😢
Wow just amazing
It is beautiful man, the fact a group can experience the same emotions and feelings at the same time 😭 amazin.
Right shit got me emotional 😭 music is really such a beautiful thing
I almost never do unless listening to a song, but I got shivers for some reason reading that, it’s a beautiful thing, with all the hate in the world I’m glad music will always be able to bring people together
Really??? I'm Sold!
This song hits deeper at 30 than it did at 15. Nostalgia
I was 12 when this came out I'm 24 how the time flies and I agree the older we get the more songs become nostalgic
I'm 25 I was probably 12 or 13 now I'm getting an extreme nostalgic feeling after listening to this
Same I’m 23 now damn good times
Proof our generation was king
Heh yeah
Let’s go Shohei!!!!!!!!
This song is so uplifting!! And the fact that he’s specifically encouraging young black kids and telling them to avoid things that some glorify hits me in the heart!!
Lupe Fiasco is so underrated. Unfortunately the stupid shit sells more.
💯🖤 but sadly this is the reason he's soooooooo underrated in my eyes
@@SaLvAdOriaN127 stupid shit like a song that’s been completely copied and ripped off by Modest Mouse? Yeah. What an underrated genius…
@@marks6734 go listen to your stupid ass songs about suicide, drugs and violence.
@@SaLvAdOriaN127 at least they would be original and actually written and created by the artist. Unlike anything Lupe Fiasco does. Dude was a one hit wonder and the hit wasn’t even his song. He stole it! 😂🤣😂🤣
who else misses the music from the start of 2010s?? i feel like this new music doesn’t slap the same as these classics. no women, no drugs , jus pure quality :(
Me bro it was a good time i will miss it
I'm so obsessed with like all music from 2009-2012, it's borderline a running joke with my friends lol
I prefer 2000s music
Bro I feel the same way love 2010-2016 music. 2016 is exceptional but 2013 slapped
plenty of sngs were about women and drugs back then too.
Anyone else going back and listening to songs that make them remember when life was much better?
I'm thinking life is good
So hard wish it was early 2000 still
When life was much simpler😌💖
agreed
So damn true😭😭😭
Gonna love this song forever.

I used to listen to this song while I was struggling with an eating disorder in hospital, 10 years ago. I turned on my old iPod and forgot about the whole world.
Thank you, Lupe Fiasco, you made me grow up.
PS: sorry for my bad English haha
Your English is perfect 👌 don’t apologize ❤️❤️
It's ok don't apologize 💯🌻💛
I’m wishing you continued health and a full beautiful life. Keep going!
Its 2019... and im still getting chills listening to this
Cade Stuart same bro

ikr happy new yeae
same lol
Same. I'm a teacher and I still listen to this every day before my classes start. Hugely motivational; I can't half-ass it after listening to this song.
10 years ago, i was a sophomore in college in a small town, every night after finishing study in library, on the way back to domitory i was always listeining this song. as long as i put my earpods on and the shows goes on starts i just felt i was KING of world!
Back in days it was impossible to imagine that 10 years later i m listening it again sitting in my room in another country far from family and old friends.
likewise i will never know what my life will be like in another 10 years.
hopefully living big living your dream.
Still one of the greatest most inspirational and powerful songs in the whole world.
Not really, just a terrible dumb downed float on ripoff. Maybe this dude should learn how to make his own music.
@@BloodyAnalSurprise 💀🤡
@@BloodyAnalSurprise u are a clown bro he didn't steal it he sampled it.
Lupe a great artist
@@arsenal4L sampling is for talentless hacks he reused pretty much the entire song except for his monkey brained lyrics people think are deep for some reason lol he sucks that’s why no one cares about him
@@BloodyAnalSurprise so kanye b4 2020 was a talentless hack then
Coming back to this song has been an absolute blessing. Just thinking about how a decade ago I was a little boy with great ambitions and a blank slate on life is something else. Cheers to everyone coming back to this timeless gem. I hope we can all prosper and reach the end goal that we have always dreamed of.
Bless you 🙏
Dude. This song deadass started my personality. It started me using deep critical thinking to assess the world and also started the confusing part of getting older. I was 13 when this song came out. Will never forget buying this on iTunes on my iPod Nano

Amen to that, I was barely making minimum wage 5yrs ago, now I’m making six figures. I hope everyone finds their way and hustle! Never settle for less 👌🏽

+ƐƐƐɐʎdnllɐ who cares what they rap about ? Lol ............. This generation hip hop is so confused and if you think hip hop is all about booty drugs and trapping then you don't know hip hop, Old school hip hop showed examples and described life and changes .. New school hip hop all about guiding young people to sell drugs and fuck every person under the sun and turn up everyday .. That's not hip hop, of course we listen to it but if you wanna be technical that's shit 😅
Trevor Poff exactly
+Amber Mai I agree to some point. A lot of new/recent rappers rap about enlightenment and spiritual stuff. You just have to find good artists.
If you can't find anything, or when in doubt: MF DOOM.
He is a legend of hip hop.

I was locked up in a maximum security prison in Joliet called Statesville, right outside of Chicago. All I had was a Walkman and this song on a cassette tape. I would listen to this song every day, looking out of my little cell window at all the barb wire and brown grass. the song would cut off halfway through so I would rewind it over, and over. Until one of the older guys told me you can flip the tape and it has another side to it. I would listen to this song and dream of everything I was going to do when I got out. This song has got me through times I thought were impossible. Now I’m glad to say I have accomplished everything I dreamed of and much more! It’s crazy how you learn to appreciate the little things in life that you never noticed before. Much love! No more ramen noodles or locked doors!
