Shinoda and Lupe on one track 😭😭😭😭😭... I always tell people that Shinoda made me fall in love with Real Hip Hop. He's the reason I looked up rappers like Pharaohe Monch which in turn led to me discovering so many other lyricists like Mos Def, Royce da 5'9 and so many others

All Facts Bro!

We don't sleep to dream. We sleep to build stamina. FUCK YEAH!

OF COURSE lupe kills it. he always does. but Mike is better than your average rapper. he's deep and his lyrics are pretty sick. he's INCREDIBLY underrated

No joke, I fixed my sleeping schedule after hearing that verse a few days ago. It resonated with me and made me realize staying up all night is pointless

@@Just_Some_Yonko_With_A_Beard what? your sleeping schedule does not say anything about the length of your sleep. also, sleeping twice for half the time each is not a bad thing either. which would be a schedule. maybe i just missunderstand your "staying up all night is pointless" wrong, though.

One of the most underrated songs ever

Mike Shinoda is amazing. He's different from the rappers now-a-days. This is what rap used to be about, it used to having meaning. Now, all it's about is sex, drugs, violence, and money. It's sad, because it leaves the real rappers (like Mike0 un-noticed. Music isn't the same thing it was 20-30 years ago. Mike, come back and do another side project with Fort Minor. This music is literally, the only thing giving me hope for this generation.

I love Fort Minor because they have the message of rock music but with the style of rap. Best of both worlds

this lyrics is dope! man

Had this album. Spent the first 30 bucks of my pay check on it. I wasn't aware there was a limited edition, but had bought one by complete accident. I had heard the whole tracklist on spotify so many times, so when I popped in the cd on my drive home from my girlfriend's place an hour and a half away, I was expecting it to loop after the regular tracklist. Then I stumbled on this gem and fell in love with FM and Mike Shinoda's music all over again. And then, my cd got donated. I'll get a new one someday, as this started my love for getting actual physical copies of all of my music, just to see what other gems the original musicians hid on them.

Thank you mom for showing me this song

I can't believe anyone hasn't quoted this in the comments yet, so I will: "Yeah, this one goes out to those fantastic human beings that keep us down and hold us back, and give us fuel for what we do. Thanks." FIYA.

Mike Shinoda + Lupe Fiasco = Great stuff

Lupe is special.

Still as good as the day it came out.

godly beat and instrumental. rapping is awesome as well. amazing song

mike come back with it man cause no 1 can rock a rhyme like this !!

This is the song I think of when I think of what motivates me.... (it helps having people putting you down your whole life and that anger inside is what drives you to succeed) How the fuck do like me now Paps?

LUPE !!

Chester got me thinking so much about so much....Mike Shonda for one..

oh my God I love fort minor

DAMN!!!! beat is dope verses are sick flow is legendary... em' level legendary

anyone who dislikes this song i hate them

Lupe spazzed

Song ended and I literally felt like I just started it.. FIRE

mike shinoda + lupe fiasco = nuclear explosion

Lupe's verse is sick! baseline and bongo's, all you need!

We don't sleep to dream We sleep to build stamina Energy to do our thing Get your camera

Mike Shinoda and Lupe Makes this Awsome !!! Both my Fav Very Inspiring !!

Lupe's verse kills it

This is exactly the hallmark of what real Hip-Hop is all about!👏

"Ladies and- fuck it." LOL

Every track from FM is my jam

Lupe murdered this. Only reason I use to bump this.

Every time I listen to it I get chills

I wish there was a heart reaction on youtube. A thumbs up does not reflect how much I like this song.

Awesome song. We love you Mike!

(wavin hands around crazy) hell yeah man lupe fiasco and mike shinoda = friggin awesome

A lot of people say I rap like Fort Minor and Lupe Fiasco... strange coincidence. This song is so real though, all dreamers can relate to.

The last line tho! :)

Fort minor and Lupe fiasco is WTFGOOD

And Fort Minor: Real music.

MIKE SHINODA IS INCREDIBLE!! A TRUE ARTIST!! =)

Lupe Fiasco totally killed it on this track....man MS and LF need to work together more :D

if mike didn't join LP and have that type of success with them, I'm not sure people would like at this album a whole lot, not because he's not a talented individual but because if a rapper comes out and isn't all thuggish, talking about bitches and drugs then they aren't cool enough. when guys like mike and lupe are actually just really cool fuckin dudes, while these storyteller rappers makee millions, selling hope to the hopeless.

Mike Shinoda best MC in America Change my mind

@Scodan23 i know. i agree .she is so different and talented and i like her work a lot!she deserve every bit of attention!

"THANKS" 😎

love this song and holly brook = skylar grey fort minor skylar grey and lupe fiasco cant go wrong!!!

one of my fav jams in my car in 09ish

Why is this not available on streaming? Epic collab

Yea ik, what an amazing song.

Man this is treasure

mike shinoda is fucking amazing.

This should speak to people. Go Mike.

he has a song with lupe fiasco....these are my 2 fav rappers...how did i not know this

Forever Alone version: Gonna meet somebody...for anybody telling me i cant, Gonna meet someone...for anyone who told me i had no friends

he did not break off this is his side project he has been writing lyrics and rapping before LP

Forever.

👌💖

OMG. MY LIFE IS NOW COMPLETE.

Mike and Lupe fucking killed it. This might be the best rap song ever recorded. With most rappers, it's drugs, sex, and money. These guys rap about real stuff.

@GmnisAwesome This is on the special edition of The Rising Tied

I love this jam not ok

22’ & still 🔥😉

i got an import of this album from asia. That version had it on there. even came with a poster

Fort Minor was a test, a test to see how popular this group would get and if it would get any success at all. We all know that they fucked shit up in the rap world and could continue, but we don't know if they will make a comeback. Thumbs this up for Fort Minor to see and make another revolutionary move in the music industry.

Love it , still the same mind ... Egyptian mix Race lives in Rotterdam . Taugh life .

Mike Shinoda created Fort Minor during Linkin Park; it was a sideproject while LP shelved Minutes to Midnight. He put FM on a hiatus, a shelved project for now.

👍👍👍

i dont sleep to dream i sleep to build stamina
