[Chorus: Matthew Santos]
When the fighters are all around,
All the lovers are on the ground,
No one will save you anymore.
So what's happening? What you rapping about, little boy?
Is it cars? Is it girls? Is it money?
The world?
[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
Or is it something they can never believe?
Or is it something you can never achieve?
Is it beyond your means?
Is it inside your dreams?
Can it never come out ‘cause it's scared to,
Unprepared to, too worried about the words of the people it's weird to?
You don't want them to hear you,
You just wish there was a door that would appear
That you can go disappear through.
Well, I'm feelin' your pain,
I was feelin' the same,
But I said I'd never feel that again.
[Chorus: Matthew Santos]
When the fighters are all around,
All the lovers are on the ground,
No one will save you anymore.
So what's happening? What you rapping about, little boy?
Is it cars? Is it girls? Is it money?
The world?
[Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]
Man, I really miss my pops,
Hope that God watches over him, and that he's on top,
That there is no more disease and that he's alright,
That he's one of the generals inside the army of the light.
And, grandma, you know ,I had to bite something from you,
So after every show it's «peace, and much love to you».
Auntie Tweetie's on the way, please, look out for that girl,
I know we'll meet again, so it's never me against the world.
[Chorus: Matthew Santos]
When the fighters are all around,
All the lovers are on the ground,
No one will save you anymore.
So what's happening? What you rapping about, little boy?
Is it cars? Is it girls? Is it money?
The world?
[Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco]
I hope that God forgive us, all of us sinners,
Turn us back into beginners, put us up where the winners go,
Holy apartments in the gardens in which the rivers flow,
Thank you for all your blessings and all of your miracles.
I thank all my fans and all my supporters,
Shout out to Bishop G, congrats on your new baby daughter,
I tip my hat to all my family and friends,
Now we just got one more to go, L-U-P-End.
[Chorus: Matthew Santos]
When the fighters are all around,
All the lovers are on the ground,
No one will save you anymore.
So what's happening? What you rapping about, little boy?
Is it cars? Is it girls? Is it money?
The world?
