The Kooks – Mr. Maker Lyrics 17 years ago
i like this song, but teh catholic priest bit was irrelevant, other than the fact catholics dont have pastors, its stereotypical and most priests are men who have devoted their whole life to religiona dn helping others. it really annoys me that people think all catholics are fanatic and priests are pedos

other than that, good song

Lupe Fiasco – The Cool Lyrics 18 years ago
i agree that the cool is the image of being popular, and a gangster.
i also think this is about prison, i'm going to try and work out the next album by myself, but will probably miss half his metaphors.

Lupe Fiasco – Superstar Lyrics 18 years ago
finnaly the lyrics are somewhere, i almost wrote tham all myself.
close enough,
'height' not 'hype'
'heavy AS heavy, and devilOWE me'

'past' the indian graves
and the 'gov in the car'




good song, about his rise to being a superstar obviously, he prefers it when he wasnt in the spotlight, that metaphors good.

Kanye West – Big Brother Lyrics 18 years ago
"Then i went and told Jay Brown,
Should have known that was gonna come back around,
Should have talked to you like a man, should have told you first,
But i told someone else and thats what made shit worse."

Lupe Fiasco – Failure Lyrics 18 years ago
It's mean, soldier
Now let me put the streets down like steamrollers
With the CATS that push
40 oz. through the hood like King Cobras *( King Cobras are a brand of 40oz's) *
See me sling soda
'Cause the extra four in the split it is mixed
It's really 36
Used to buy toasters and clips
You can tighten your circle or boa constrict
While you was lighting your purple, I was over the scripts( *Lighting your purple = purple tops, set the stage with purple lights)*
See, I couldn't walk the walk, couldn't really talk the talk
Had to get my talk to properly explain my walk
'Cause this lack in talk had my walk looking off
Now I'm over the limp
Watch how they mugs drop when they see my Verbal's able
(That's the Usual)
When I was PO I was LO( * Ralf Lauren Polos* )
Now me and my Chaps cop Purple Label
It's Ralph Lauren on the rap laureate
Niggas brownnose, they are like Alf to him * Alf is a dog I think, Dogs sniff ass*
Runners at Interscope are not as Stoute as him
Please don't Interscope(endoscope)-(* [ i]Endoscope is a medical instrument used to view internal organs, so i think he's referring to respiration or I.V.[/i]) *
It's gonna be a whole lot of IVing ad) res pirating
If I lean out this window with Irene
Niggas as tall as Yao Ming
With L-U-P-Emperor
Is the foundation's I-Beams and the antennas
It's so serious every time I write my John Hancock like
Could "damn near see Detroit *( other than his signature The Height of the John Hancock Center) *
Niggas is scared of heights
This is saran wrap and aluminum foil
Some potpourri, a little machine oil
I stack my paper and throw off my scents/cents
This is top floor, better look out below
Pennies from heaven is the same as the semi from the second *Pennies from heaven (will hurt) the same a semi from the second (finger, trigger finger).*
And I rain supreme
Turn your umbrellas upside down
Did you even catch the change in theme?

And them niggas ain't Was( * Wasalu ) nor from his regime( FnF *)
Gangsta lean
Hats on tilt like ya snickers ain't drop out the vending machine
You gotta put more money in
And I shake niggas up every time I drop a bar(2 for 1)
It's horse in the Porsche and bricks in the box *( [ i]The Porsche logo has a horse with black and red colors symbolizing bricks, I think that what it is i'm not sure[/i] )*
Like mo' money them every time I cop a car
You see I'm a roller, right
So it might be a Rover, right
But every time I drop a r
(Get off the streets)
It's over aite
Bet I be in the head like overnight
Like rollers, right
She the chauffeur, right
So I keep her sober
She don't get Fed Ex like overnight *( NVM, thats self explanitory*
I am Dolemite
All that gas can't help you but solar might
Just call on sun
Drop a s
Pick up an o
U no, put it all on one
Brace yourself like overbite
For that quiet nigga that relocated down south
Coming back to floss
Nigga get your molars right
Fix your grill
No plaque but a whole lot of cheese *( no plaque or album, but a whole lotta chease or money) *
This the drill
Mr. Chill
Gave me the green light like Yoda knife ( Yoda’s saber from Starwars)
So I'ma force my will
Like the Force I wield * The force from Starwars*
Of course you will
Take my time
But wait/weight behind only pertains
To that Porsche grill * Porsche designed the rear-engine sports car*
It's snakes in the hood
Gotta watch for that Cobra bite
Let me see
There's snakes in the hood
A bird, a horse behind the grill
Something gator on the seat
And a fox behind the wheel
No, its not Noah's Ark

For achiever
My procedure's
To proceed at all cost
With no breather
I'm all walk
Rain, snow, or fever
I'm all coughs coming after your teacher
I'm on the ball like FIFA
Viva Lupe Duce ( [ i]Long Live the Leader[/i] )
Long live the leader
I remember I ain't have sneakers
It was welfare
Coming up for air is like
Whales there
Fila
But now I'm well here
I'm Shamu with twelve pair
And niggas wanna take me back to zero like tear fare
Well, my skill's clear
You See World
It's Braille here
I'm Bumpy Johnson I stick to the streets
Keep my dogs out in front of me
You see what I'm saying
And I push ki's wonderfully

Lupe Fiasco – Just Might Be Okay Lyrics 18 years ago
hard to get some of the words in this song, its about growing up it the area he did, the last bit is about the misconception that hes a rich well off educated geek who doesnt know anything about the streets, like me ;)

Lupe Fiasco – Daydreamin' Lyrics 18 years ago
The robot represents the 'project building' ie. the streets etc.

lupe is in the head looking through the eyes observing the streets, he doesn't want to upset the streets, or else he'll be out of them.

he describes whats going on around him, and the hoes and druggies are all around the bottom, like they are the basis of whats above them, they led to crocked cops (the knees are an important joint supporting the rest of it, and its important they're not crooked), and drive bys, in urn leading to car chases and wearing a vest for protection.
