I just bought my first car yesterday: a camry, because of this song. Saved up for 2 years and bought a used one. All cash. Thanks Lupe for all the gems of wisdom over the years. Keep pushing.
I will actually say this is one of his best songs ever. I appreciate the fact that he just wants to be real and speak the truth in his raps. The chorus in my opinon tells how the whole world should be. Lupe much much love and respect.
Lupe fully exercises his freedom of speech in his music. He is not afraid of critics and being politically correct. This kind of music is more powerful then all the stupid smoking weed, fucking bitches, buying cars, twerking, crap that the radio has brainwashed our youth into hearing on the radio everyday.
Bought the album today and this is one of my favorite songs. He's always put so much soul into his music and gives you the news you should know about. A little appreciation for you, Lupe.
And THIS is what being real is all about - telling the truth that many people are aware of but refuse to openly acknowledge. I proudly accept an ugly truth instead of a beautiful lie every time.
More people need to listen to this and take his words seriously and to the heart because what he is releasing and expressing in this song is the truth, and rap/hip hop needs to change greatly, I will continue to mot listen to it, or support their music (except for lupe) until they get their values and stuff in order because how rap is now, isn't music. It's ignorance.
This is very creative clean cool and Love The Video man powerful and honest it's not with all the trash raps thats flooded with youtube views,radio plays,Bet awards because thats what they do to the music that misleads the minds of the Youth Grade A Lupe Thanks as usual.
i love this track. Ital'iya! these rhymes is deep on the new album. some relevant shit that everyone could do well to hear to ease their minds and get a glimpse into the control scheme that most big rappers are caught up in.
This is not my account but even though I'm 12 years old I understand the message that he's saying. And what he's saying is true and we should try to do better like what he's trying to get through to u. Like if u agree
the corporations that own radio stations play dumbed down music on purpose to try keeping society from thinking about stuff that matters. LUpe is trying to break the mold, he doesnt trade the message for $ or airtime.
I don't see why it can't be both :) Lupe is known for his insane double entendres. It would explain the "IAAA" after he says Ital. WOw the more I think about it the crazier it seems. A ferrari is hardly "vital:Ital" cus its a luxury, so he's kinda exposing how society considers it something to aspire to, something "vital" for their happiness, when in fact its just extravagance. Man, lupe does crazy awesome shit like this all the time, im not even surprised anymore lol.
***"Watch that, Hold, Appreciate n then you'll Understand me."*** You can get whatever you choose....the Real Work Starts when you Work to MAINTAIN WHAT YOU HAVE.
actually I looked it up and Ital is the rastafarien term for something that is vital or important just taking off the v in Ital. I am completely ignorant to if this is true or not because it was on wikipedia. So you could be right I honestly don't know.
Some of the lyrics are off... It is actually "dreaming child," and NOT Ital. Also, it is "strippers on the p-ole," NOT pill. Other than that, I "love" the song!
I'm thinkin lupe is saying ITAL-IA (Italia), which is a kind of ferrari. It could mean more, but I think one level he's talkin about maybe a Ferrari (458 Italia?) he owned or wanted at some point. He talks about Ferraris in the song, so this makes sense. Also Ferraris kinda represent the extravagance and stupidity society makes us value (which lupe says he himself was a victim to, like all of us).
mostly refers to food in jamaican culture meaning all natural or whole, unprocessed. Lupe takes it and applies it to his outlook or possibly his state of being in general. peace.
I know it my new favorite song. I love how he has a great message over a crazy good beat. BTW Can you please subscribe I will have his whole album up with lyric videos, and then Ill have Kendrick Lamar's. Ill sub back 100%
Ithink he meant "Entity for the whole wide, wide World" Cuz So many of us r like Walking Dead Zombies trying to feel human/Life when we a'ready Living. we 're Aliveeeeee lol
I think you meant to say Lupe>>>>>>>>>>>>>Lil Wayne, well at least I hope so, because other than that their two names do not belong together in any situation. haha
Just because it's not on the level of F&L1 doesn't mean it isn't a great album. Of course F&L 1 is my favorite album of all time. So in my mind no album will touch it
I just bought my first car yesterday: a camry, because of this song. Saved up for 2 years and bought a used one. All cash. Thanks Lupe for all the gems of wisdom over the years. Keep pushing.
Congrats on the first car!
That third verse is peerless. This song is still ahead of its time.
I will actually say this is one of his best songs ever. I appreciate the fact that he just wants to be real and speak the truth in his raps. The chorus in my opinon tells how the whole world should be. Lupe much much love and respect.
Another Lupe classic the most woke and under rated artist ever
Lupe in the goat convo all day everyday.... Facts
FACTS!
This song is heavenly
Lupe fully exercises his freedom of speech in his music. He is not afraid of critics and being politically correct. This kind of music is more powerful then all the stupid smoking weed, fucking bitches, buying cars, twerking, crap that the radio has brainwashed our youth into hearing on the radio everyday.
I agree the radio plays shit music.
But what's wrong with smoking weed and fucking bitches?
Great song. Truly refreshing.
Bought the album today and this is one of my favorite songs. He's always put so much soul into his music and gives you the news you should know about. A little appreciation for you, Lupe.
This is a great example of what real rap is
Check out strange fruition by lupe.
And THIS is what being real is all about - telling the truth that many people are aware of but refuse to openly acknowledge. I proudly accept an ugly truth instead of a beautiful lie every time.
2019 still hot as a kuwaiti summer! U heard kuwait got love for ya fiascooo
Jheeez, we out here 🇰🇼
More people need to listen to this and take his words seriously and to the heart because what he is releasing and expressing in this song is the truth, and rap/hip hop needs to change greatly, I will continue to mot listen to it, or support their music (except for lupe) until they get their values and stuff in order because how rap is now, isn't music. It's ignorance.
one of the best songs on that album
this song is unreal. incredible.
Keep this up Trumanbeatz. If you did this to more albums, you'd be a legend.
2020 needs this 🤷🏿♂️
This is BIG - Didn't think he could reach Food and Liquor 1 Levels again because that album is Literary Gold - But this tune is Amazing !!!
This is very creative clean cool and Love The Video man powerful and honest it's not with all the trash raps thats flooded with youtube views,radio plays,Bet awards because thats what they do to the music that misleads the minds of the Youth Grade A Lupe Thanks as usual.
Same, love the first 7 tracks of this album one of the only times I listen to an album in order.
Man, every song is his best song.
i love this track. Ital'iya! these rhymes is deep on the new album. some relevant shit that everyone could do well to hear to ease their minds and get a glimpse into the control scheme that most big rappers are caught up in.
Man, people are sleepin on this. This is the Lupe I know.
Edit: TIL about Tetsuo & Youth. Aw yisssss
YESSS I was about to add on that as well!
The last verse is amazing!!! Can't make up my mind which song is the one I like the most in FnL2!! Thanks for the post. peace.
2:55 is hype as fuck
Hey thank you very much for the definition of ITAL. I was recking my brain trying to figure it out.
This is not my account but even though I'm 12 years old I understand the message that he's saying. And what he's saying is true and we should try to do better like what he's trying to get through to u. Like if u agree
Whole adult now lol
The world would be a better place if THIS was the #1 song on the radio as opposed to the other garbage that promotes twerking, smoking, and drinking.
I agree. Lupe's music has more impact with the messages conveyed then the crap they always play on the radio.
Give yourself a pat on the back for having a good head on your shoulders and realizing this.
Hell yeah! You're right bro!
the corporations that own radio stations play dumbed down music on purpose to try keeping society from thinking about stuff that matters. LUpe is trying to break the mold, he doesnt trade the message for $ or airtime.
Kris Vladimirov I agree but to be fair, smoking & drinking are great.
this needs millions of viewa
Agreed
I don't see why it can't be both :) Lupe is known for his insane double entendres. It would explain the "IAAA" after he says Ital. WOw the more I think about it the crazier it seems. A ferrari is hardly "vital:Ital" cus its a luxury, so he's kinda exposing how society considers it something to aspire to, something "vital" for their happiness, when in fact its just extravagance. Man, lupe does crazy awesome shit like this all the time, im not even surprised anymore lol.
Lupe with another banger for people who claims that hip hop is dead.
***"Watch that, Hold, Appreciate n then you'll Understand me."***
You can get whatever you choose....the Real Work Starts when you Work to MAINTAIN WHAT YOU HAVE.
Best song on the album.
Phenomenal. Enough said. Seriously.
I appreciate it man
I think he was saying "strippers on the P-ole" but still good ‼️
ITS RIME pill and pole! Lupe's word play. Same on the coolest, no weather man can ever stay where her and I came! ( Hurricane) just another example.
Nagaland loves Lupe !!! 😎
you're a legend trumanbeatz
LUPE DAMN much respect
Maybe, maybe may we have some roses
Great job mate, subbed :)
I Love This😻😻💙💙
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Fire
2019 still going hard. Damn this massage still Hella relevant! Ayt nigga we know!
yeah youre right. Ital is a kind of ferrari. He says ferrar somewhere in the song too
Amazing songs can do that
This defines Hip Hop.
😗 for the babies
actually I looked it up and Ital is the rastafarien term for something that is vital or important just taking off the v in Ital. I am completely ignorant to if this is true or not because it was on wikipedia. So you could be right I honestly don't know.
great vid
Unforgiveable Youth is mad good too
If you don’t love this song you don’t know music
Yep,thats what I said, but some people think its about Farraris
i like all of the rappers you like
natural; natural state of being; non-artificial, non-synthetic;
2021
I wish we could embed the first verse in every teen today.
Listen and succeed!!
Ital is vital
Why does every video on TH-cam with lyrics have the lyrics showing up all late for every line?
Yes
At the beginning I hear...
“I see a dreaming child watching over me” 🧐
Wait wait wait...I was trying to think...my bad let me dumb it down
Dope
Pills make you stupid and liquor do the same thang.
And a big middle finger to Chief Queef.....
Some of the lyrics are off...
It is actually "dreaming child," and NOT Ital.
Also, it is "strippers on the p-ole," NOT pill.
Other than that, I "love" the song!
i subed
what exactly does ITAL stand for?
It’s actually not an acronym I think it’s basically a type of food diet
One correction: Some peace and INITY for the wide wide world... inity is basically unity but U meaning "you" is replaced with "I"
dido, this, Strange Fruition, and Hood Now
Definition:
REAL- lupe fiasco
I'm thinkin lupe is saying ITAL-IA (Italia), which is a kind of ferrari. It could mean more, but I think one level he's talkin about maybe a Ferrari (458 Italia?) he owned or wanted at some point. He talks about Ferraris in the song, so this makes sense. Also Ferraris kinda represent the extravagance and stupidity society makes us value (which lupe says he himself was a victim to, like all of us).
i love this song...but what does ITAL mean?
mostly refers to food in jamaican culture meaning all natural or whole, unprocessed. Lupe takes it and applies it to his outlook or possibly his state of being in general. peace.
+ty R (VT PureMapleSyrup) thanx a lot for clearing that up brother. makes sense! peace
This sounds like the Poppin Bottles beat by TI. Love this song though
Can we get a BREAK? from the cocaine & the kilos... Aite nicca we know.. aite nicca we know!!!!
what is an ITAL rose?
2019 =)
You know this album did not suck at all. Had its weak points though. 7.8-8/10. T&Y was EPIC. I give it like a 8.9(strong 8) or a 9 out of ten lol.
THIS SHIT IS SO REAL
Lupe Lil Wayne
@xboxlivemovie how are you saying these are bad lyrics? It's way better than most shit out these days. It actually has meaning and gives guidance.

I know it my new favorite song. I love how he has a great message over a crazy good beat. BTW Can you please subscribe I will have his whole album up with lyric videos, and then Ill have Kendrick Lamar's. Ill sub back 100%
Here's some roses for the ladies. Panther pride

What does ITAL stand for?
It’s basically a food diet

Food diet
I think you meant to say Lupe>>>>>>>>>>>>>Lil Wayne, well at least I hope so, because other than that their two names do not belong together in any situation. haha
thanks I appreciate it. Subbed back right away
Just because it's not on the level of F&L1 doesn't mean it isn't a great album. Of course F&L 1 is my favorite album of all time. So in my mind no album will touch it
Thanks, Im doin Kendrick Lamars next actually.
Decent video but you messed up some of the lyrics.
Basically, Is a 458 Italia "Ital?" NOPE. society has its priorities mixed up.
lol
