Write it in lights, molly in the body of Christ Drop me to the lobby from heights Then over the threshold to redeem the doorway Fourteen broads like the king of Norway Fourteen broads having dreams of foreplay Fourteen arm Shiva (viva la coup!) If the government get it I'm a fool [Pre-Hook] Closet full of bones Just don't try to put'em back together (Try to put'em back together) And I'll just bite my tongue So wear it like a scarlet letter (Wear it like a scarlet letter) [Hook] Anatomy (skin), will be the d**h of me Anatomy (skin), that's just my anatomy Anatomy (skin), will be the d**h of me Anatomy (skin) [Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco] Sanskrit dance on the page of the dead book Don't leave the restroom with the left foot Flags of Tibet, to bet, to bed, to d**h, flesh Release the leash on a fast car Feed on the keys, fall asleep in a Jaguar The tip of thy sword is white Am I night, am I black, am I light? Have I been this? Realize my begin when I find where my end this Oedipus wrecks, motherf**er this better than s** Material potion the love of my martyr Currency soaked in the blood of my father (Will you cry for me?) Sky burial, let the wind carry you, farther Than I could (live forever) An anatomy, not of me, knotting me to it, nodding me to it Eyes of the I and others, watching me do it Adapt in each rubric Kubrick in plot and tone Lots of bones, scolds to the top of tone Skim through it is just skin to it You're so thin you see the sins through it [Pre-Hook] Closet full of bones Just don't try to put'em back together (Try to put'em back together) And I'll just bite my tongue So wear it like a scarlet letter (Wear it like a scarlet letter) [Hook] Anatomy (skin), will be the d**h of me Anatomy (skin), that's just my anatomy Anatomy (skin), will be the d**h of me Anatomy (skin) [Saxophone Solo: Terrace Martin]
