Shining Down

Most likely in the top ten section of Lupe Fiasco's best songs. The flow is amazing, as well as the beat, and it has a mysterious vibe to it. Featuring Matthew Santos, it proves to be an equivalent to, in such a case, even the Falcon Punch.

The Song is from the Album LASERS, which stands for Love Always Shines Everytime Remember 2 Smile", being released possibly shortly. Remember, Lupe Fiasco exists as the last hope of actually good hip-hop music.
Chorus:
Look Up in the Sky (Look Up in the Sky)
Look Up in the Sky (Look Up in the Sky)
Look Up in the Sky (Look Up in the Sky)

You thought I was down.
You thought I was gone.
Thought I wasn't around.
Thought I left you alone.
But look up in the sky.
Just look up in the sky.
See that Im everywhere
Everywhere
Shining down on you.

Verse 1:
Well, well
Is that our little author?
Coming back; Humming his hymns a little altered.
Your attention; Put back on the flow like the department of water
Take it off of the door like little Walter
Chess? Yes. Baby, Im Jerry Lawler
Rebel with a cause; Outlaw with the lawyer
Judge, jury like a loop; Rap name Lupe but my daddy named me Warrior
This is his memorial.
(Shoot)

Chorus:
You thought I was down.
You thought I was gone.
Thought I wasn't around.
That I left you alone.
But look up in the sky.
Just look up in the sky.
See that Im everywhere
Everywhere
Shining down on you.

Lyrics like these bring absolute happiness... *Sigh*, if only 50 Cent and Lil'Wayne were non-existent.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
