[Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco] Fire flame spitta On another track, don't want none of that With no water and no slaughter No breaks I just continue on, with no takes I keep going, I keep flowing, no stopping that And see everybody watching that See I got the lock so I'll be locking that, you can't get the keys Especially from me, I keep them so excited in my pocket You'd better watch it, and matter of fact you'd better stop it I'm too hot, better hopscotch it and go up down the block You might catch a shot, one two Blat, blat, blat - My flow is like...Heckler and Koch Hit you up straight n***as aiming for your face when I come through... I ain't hitting hearts, I'm just aiming for the brains Trying to make'em smarter and take'em out of danger's way And say maintain today I show the shorties how to maintain the way so righteous The nicest and do it like is priceless, iceless No, I got a couple those watches and a couple cars And I keep a couple flows and a couple bars And I keep a couple hoods and a couple stars In my back pocket and you can back watch it You better backstop it like it's cricket I keep a wicket googly when I stick it, be like the Batman, hitcha You can come through just like don't pitch it out I'll knock it out the park, it'll be so dark
By the time I'm done, there'll be no sun There'll be no one, see the crowd so empty I'll still be there rhyming, see it don't tempt me I don't feel guilty either, I feel so filthy when I roll Flowing like ether, burning n***as down Turning n***as' worlds around and show them there's better ways to get it down Yeah, yeah, it feeling like an iPod Look at my god and bow my head down to heaven I pray to the East, I try to do it seven times a day Do it my way, may god forgive me for the prayers that I didn't do And for the fasts that I didn't fast I hope you make my success last longer than the rest of them Or if not keep me so intelligent that I stay beyond it and don't care about their success or their chains I don't care nowhere, but I do care about you, don't ever let'em doubt you Don't ever let them try to put a mouth to the violence The silence that I bring is so deafening to the ears and the eyes And they can watch if they want to See it's gonna haunt you The ghosts of the past come through so fast You lay'em down but they can't, you try and put it in the trash But it jumps out the garbage and still returns to be the hardest on the market Lu [Ad Lib - Tim Westwood] Maaannnnn!!!!
