[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco] Compose yourself, like a self-aware opera Conjurer, in the zone like Sonic the Produce me a sign of the end times In time to make profit off the t-shirts And monetize all the research And leave Earth feet first, breech Behold, Whites get whiter in the cold And colors don't fade in the bleach, hah Applause, then fall through a man-made self Talking to a doll at the pancake house Then bring the light saber-ers So bring the lampshades out Mood To say something lewd on the news And move like views on a cruise And fuse like the Q's and the U's Ah, ooh, ah, ooh, ah [Chorus: Lupe Fiasco with Nikki Jean] Which side are you on? We're getting warmer cause I can't hold on Are you close to me? Sunset so long And can you call me cause I lost my phone? Should I wait for you or should I go home? I can't function, these d** are too strong I'm seeing stars now, but I'm still unknown Out here alone, sunset so long [Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco] Mates for life, chillin' life space with ice High as a kite Snakes hiss like air at the St. Claire When you put it in they face like skin care But they just egg 'em on like a hen chair I've done that, I've been there This a comeback, let me unpack And unwrap souvenirs Free as a speech on the untap Flat like time on the run Why you bring a holster to a gun rack? That's the alpha and omega, that's the vodka and the vomit Why you playin' soccer with the Sonics? That's a iPod to the Amish You should get involved with the honest Where everything's honored like Elijah Muhammad Mixed with the pontiff, hooked on phonics Let's be liars, that's not chronic Condone Islamic, and it's haunted [Chorus: Lupe Fiasco with Nikki Jean] Which side are you on? We're getting warmer and I can't hold on Are you close to me? Sunset so long And can you call me cause I lost my phone Should I wait for you or should I go home? I can't function these d** are too strong I'm seeing stars now but I'm still unknown Out here alone, sunset so long (I've always loved you) [Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco] Sun god Sam and the California drug deals Rain drop Wayne and the Bangkok love bills Hoin', she knows that I'm crooked like Owen But still goin' like a paradox, parasite, know it ain't right Where the fan, now she knows that I'm horny like Triceratops Together, but separated like a pair of socks Wow, like Pac, using both hands And his head is the O I only follow escorts now, call it sticking to the program f**ing all the police, addicted to the pole dance Come here like Pol Pot You love it over here like gold watch I would treat the box like it's UPS, I would treat the box like a sneakerhead If you shake and throw it like a match with a cigarette Then drop it like a match on a gas trail Fix another round for the mob, you the bomb Like Jihad, up and down 'til the guards of the back fell Still wanna, put my meat up in your V like I'm Maxwell Stick a fork in it, dawg, it's important to y'all But it's pork in it, so it ain't important at all Saw an underground layer with a torch in the hall When unfortunate calls from the horoscope cards And the fortunes and balls Outfit so small, saw a portion of drawers Career slide off the track and put the Porsche in the wall Like skrt, skrt, skrt, skrt, skrt, skrt [Chorus: Lupe Fiasco with Nikki Jean] Which side are you on? We're getting warmer cause I can't hold on Are you close to me? Sunset so long And can you call me cause I lost my phone Should I wait for you or should I go home? I can't function, these d** are too strong I'm seeing stars now but I'm still unknown Out here alone, sunset so long
