This was leaked on purpose, so its going to be on the album
I really like the line
"I get my energy from my inner G"
Lupe has said the reason he isnt going to retire just yet is because he found a purpose. That purpose is spreading a positive message to the people through his music. He wasnt sure about the rap game but now he is reached an inner peace and that gives him the energy to keep on going |

really good break down of the song in the link.
excerpt from link: "The lion/lying theme throughout the song is also a subtle dedication to Lupe's father, Gregory Hamza Jaco ("Hamza" means lion in Arabic and the last thing Lupe's father told him was "not to lie, tell Wasulu to tell the truth". He doesn't hide nor accept facades as he'd rather have "the scars" (which also a play on the word "disguise")" |

you are quite misinformed, in almost a sad way. Any kid in africa can get a gun. And both sides, the government and the rebels, use child soldiers from a very young age to fight. This has nothing to do with Iraq or Iran. |

| Kanye West – Pinocchio Story Lyrics

Amazing, the most introspective song on the album. The first part is about how materialism hasnt kept Kanye from feeling empty. Then he compares himself to pinochio and how he wishes he had a real life, or be a "real boy"
Then he says how the only person who really cared about him was his former fiancee but now she is gone. he got caught up chasing the american dream, and hopefully one day he'll find "your way" |

Fight With Tools
I think the meaning of this, which is used throughout the whole album, is that you have to fight with the resources you have. You dont need weapons to fight an oppressor, you need to think, use your mind, use your conviction, use the tools you have to fight for what you believe in |

Its about kids with guns, Kids in the city, kid soldiers in africa, and kids in shooting up schools. Seems like most of the song focuses on kids in africa who are trained to kill |

"The scientists said it only infects the mind
The little boy said it only infects the girls
The Preacher man said it's gonna kill off the soul
A bum said it's gonna kill off the world"
seems like he is saying everyone blames eveyone else for all the problems we have |

I think its about a hardship in his life, and he needs the help of his loved ones to get through it.
then he isnt sure if he should turn to religion, as he dares himself to believe, or if he should just go on alone and breathe again on his own |

he's saying asking for forgiveness doesnt make what you did ok. You still wronged someone or yourself and pennance doesnt automatically make it ok |

This is my favorite rap song of all time because it has some great lyrics and ryhmes that are really meaningfull. The song is told from the perspective of a couple of friends sitting around as they question the nature and culture that they have come to live in. |
