Game Time
Lyrics:
You On Da Dig? (Yes Sir)
yYou Naw'm Talkin' Bout? (Yes Sir)
You See Wut Im Sayin'? (Yes Sir)
You Know? (Yes Sir)
And If You Dont, Well Thats Too Bad!
As I Gently Push Up On The Sceeeene,
I Feel Like Ammunition For A Sliiiing Shot(Uh)
I'm Trying To Get Triple Sevens On My Slot Machine
And Knuckle Up With Time Like A Riiiiing Watch.
With No Wings, Hustle Man, Sittin In A Rubber Band - A Dennis The Menace's Weapon Of Choice With The Window's Up And Sooo...
Dead Intended Unattended Windows Of A Rolls, Broken Glass On The Driver's Seat Of A Royce!
Now How Am I 'posed To Sit For Mista Wilson Drop A Dime, Before Another Penny - Spent On This Gaaaame
Before I Cough Up The Cars And Invest Another Thought - I Walk Without My Bucket Of Change
But Im Poor, Materially Speaking So...
I Can't Be Leaving This Casino With Less Than A C-Note
Even If It Takes A Grand To Get It I Ride, Just To See That My Sedan Has Been Van-Da-Lized.
I....Ah Ah Aa Ahhhh
Game Time, Dont Get Caught Up In The Magic, Keep Your Brain Right
Cuz Thangs Aint Wut They Seeeeem Like
It Dont Matter What They Say Just Get The Naaaame Right..
Now Thats L As In Little -- U As Opposite Of Me And P As In Pistolin' And E As In ...E
Now Playaz Say That Boy Walk-A-Like A Man, Treat Cha Like Ya Fam' And Talkin' Like A G...
Now This Is Art, Taylor Made,
sharp, Wrists A Kill Like Raaaazor Blades
I Do My Part, I Chill Like The Barber Of Seville Homie, It's Like Im Paid To Faaade.
Turn Around N' Paid My Dues, With The Wages Maaade - And Then I Tip Like What A Waitress Pay
I'm A Ghetto Supa-Star (Star, Star, Star)hand Prints Chillin' And My Name Written Where The Pavement Lay
Turn Around And Place My Shoes Where The Name Engraved - Then (Uh) Game Is Played - Till I'm Rain Delayed... (Uh)
Now Thats My Zone But Im Far From An Actor Home - Like A Star Map This A G Talking Like Seasame Street
Referee The Beats That I'm Rappin' On,
they Tryin' To De-Rail My Train Of Thought!
But I'm Bruce Willis -- Ya'll Dont Feel It, Why You Break Yo'self
Like A Car-Jack,
This Is Hard Black
Like Where My Palms At.
Niggaaaz
Gaaaame Time
Dont Get Caught Up In The Magic, Keep Your Brain Riiiiiiight
Cuz Thangs Aint Wut They Seeeeem Like
It Dont Matter What They Say Just Get The Naaaame Riiiiiiight..
Now Thats L As In Little -- U As Opposite Of Me And P As In Pistolin' And E As In ....E
Now Playaz Say That Boy Walk-A-Like A Man, Treat Cha Like Ya Fam' And Talkin' Like A G...(Uh)
Now Back To My Scrap With Time,
The Tat With The Tickin', I Make My Fists
Wrap My Writs, Leave The Ring On, I Could Neva Get Enough
Punch My Clock
Clock My Grip
Niggaz Tryin To Pull My Card, Stop My Shift
Shift Me To That Graveyard And Knock My Hustle
They Hope I Domino And Free Up My Delivery And At The Same Time Mark My Magnificennnnce...
I'm Just Trying To Do The Opposite Of Left (Right),
As Long As There Is The Opposite Of Death (Life)
(You'know?!) Yes!
(You Feel Me?
You Test, And I Might Just Bring The Opposite Of Life (Death)
Till There's No One The Opposite Of Right (Left)
Check!!!
As You Bop Down The Writer's Block And Can't Find It...
I Address (I Speak It
I Correct,
You A Dress,
I A Pair-A-Pants
I A Motorola, You A Just A Pair-A-Cans!
Couple Coke-A-Colas And A String,
Playa Im Bout My Green Like Marsha's Skin
A Sinner On A Side-Walk, They Wavin' To From The Floats In A Parade, Saint's Go Marchin' In....
I Got My ..Ah Ah Ah Ahhhhh
Gaaaame Time
Dont Get Caught Up In The Magic, Keep Your Brain Right
Cuz Thangs Aint Wut They Seeeeem Like
It Dont Matter What They Say Just Get The Naaaame Right..
Now Thats L As In Little -- U As Opposite Of Me And P As In Pistolin' And E As In ....E (?)

Hell yeah I’m still coming back to this banger
3:15-3:30 is the best 15 seconds of lyricism
He truly represents a level of lyricism that many of today's artist don't have but I must say real music is coming back we just have to patient lupe is only the beginning he is providing the light at end of tunnel so people have been lost in dance steps music with a message is slowly resurfacing the heart and soul of hip-hop is returning
The best lyricist of all time
Its makin me mad tht people could not think that lupe is not a good rapper.......he is the best rite now
"i am motorola, you are just a pair of cans"....WOOOO the boy is just COLDDDDDD
Still listening in 2023 💕💕💕💕
why is this stuff not on the radio....real music is what i preach for and lupe has always been reall.....its shame there are not alot artists like lupe
"I'm just tryna do the opposite of left, as long as there's the opposite of death. Yes, ya test and I just might bring the opposite of life til there's no one the opposite of right" OMFG, this is why Lu will always be my favorite rapper. I haven't been a fan of his most recent ish but it's okay because his earlier masterpieces, such as this one, completely make up for it!

Im listening to this song for more then 13 years and still fresh.. rap in its optima forma..
That 3rd verse gotta be a top 5 verse of all time
Best Rapper Alive! Fuck album sales and commercialism, Lupe can't be fucked with lyrically or conceptually!
"I'm a Motorola, you just a pair of cans Couple Coca Colas and a string". I feel lame now lol
his double meanings are great its like his signature style... it was crazy when i heard "i gotcha" and he did "AXE scented,accented,and askin" in one line.. i respect lupe as a legend hes got the power turn the rap game upside down.
"Turned around and paid my dues with the wages maaaade and then I tip like what the waitress payssss I'm a ghetto Superstar" 2022 Lupe we still here baby!
he rhymes so smooth
Top 3 of his best hits of all time.
lupe goes mainstream, and now everyone loves him.....where were you "fans" 5 years ago?
LYRIC COMPREHENSION CORRECTION: I'm just tryna do the opposite of left As long as there's the opposite of death Ya test and I just might bring the opposite of life Til there's no one to opposite to right (write--- check!) that bar has three meanings in one
-Im just trying to do the opposite of left, as long as theres the opposite of death... You test and I might just bring the opposite of life til theres no one the opposite of right.- wtF.... this dude is MONSTROUS....wtF
One of the best songs ever made. I swera.
I dont get it. how is he not on most ppl's top ten lyricists lists? honestly he has the most complex arsenal of lyrics to be able to flow the way he does.
As I Gently Push Up On The Scene, I Feel Like Ammunition For A Sling Shot I'm Trying To Get Triple Sevens On My Slot Machine And Knuckle Up With Time Like A Riiiiing Watch some crazy lyrics man
Wow Lupe its a pity that more people dont know about him cause this is how hip hop should b like
with those opposite lyrics, i just........ those lines are nasty! some of, if not, the best i have ever heard. im amazed. they are freaking amaaaazing.
I've been lookin for this song for like three years

just so EVERYONE is clear, this is from the Food and Liquor leak. it wasnt put on the retail version. other songs such as Ghetto Story, Spaze Out, Hustlaz Song were also cut.
"This a G talking like Sesame Street" >>>>>
everything is tight the lyrics and the beat is fire
Just looked up these lyrics on rap genius... mind boggled! Dang yo dis dude is just nasty. Every line was art
I didn't give "Game Time" much attention before but damn all the metaphors and wordplay is freakin ridiculous
Lupe's style is coooo ha
this song such chill lyricism
Still bumping in 2023 I’m just tryna do the opposite of left as long as it’s the opposite of death/but test and I just might bring the opposite of life, till there’s no one the opposite of right/ Lupe a alien for sure
My brain just the entire song. LOL! Lupe is dope!
lupe is on that higher level spit, wordplay monster!!!!
I didnt even know who k-rino was til this comment. I only heard a few of his songs since this, but I understand what u mean already. Dude's another conceptual beast!

@@WestsideVakay 1 year later, but at the end of the first verse Lupe said: "I can't be leaving this casino, with less than a c-note" where c note is a double, c note as a 100 hundred bill and c note as in musical aspect, and in the beginning of the second verse he mentions "barber of Seville", an opera buffa... yeah, Lupe connect things just like great authors do.
Lupe is a lyrical monster
I commented "Lupe is the best" on a Wayne song, and got a bunch of comments saying "Haha funny joke kid". This ignorant mainstream rap... A G Talking Like Seasame Street. Best line I've seen in a while. Especially cause I love Sesame Street.
He still is cool and beyond fresh.
music keeps me going.hits threw my heart whenever it is bowin.kush between the lines dat keep my thoughts flyin.keepin my mind off the fact that our lovely hip hop is dyin.rappers comin with a full package SONG DANCE but it got my soul cryin.dont call it hip hop just call it ENTERTAINMENT please dont sho n e denying.....

Lupe's is a monster
Niggas tryna pull my card Stop my shift Shift me to that graveyard Knock my hustle
@someshortkid thats true. can be seen both ways. this guys just a genius
lupe fiasco is most likely the fukin bestt rite noww!! no ones touchin him noww! too bad hes still kinda underrated
Man I love atmosphere you hit the nail on the head with that one they are a great example of what I we are talking about I also like sage francis I listen to black sweatshirt every morning you should check that out if you haven't heard it my friend
LOVE THIS TRACK!
3:15 - 3:29 pure slickness
I absolutely love Lupe!
my favorite line
lupe iz a beast weezy n drake can sit down!
G.O.A.T
I think K-Rino has a lot going for him with his content but Lupe's delivery, wordplay, puns and metaphors out shines Rino... and come to think of it I think Lu's content is deeper and more clever as well. I can pretty much absorb a Rino song in a single, maybe 2, listens while i'll listen to a Lu song 100 times and still catch new things. I think Lu's body of work will out last K's. Anyways, I'm always looking for new dope artists to listen to and you seem pretty connected. Any suggestions?

I'm preeetty sure he said "Playa I'm bout my green like MARTIAN skin" like an alien. But ehhh I could be wrong. I just don't understand how Marsha's skin was green if she was white, but then again I never did watch Brady Bunch.
