Shining Down Lyrics

Cover art for Shining Down lyrics by Lupe Fiasco

I believe its "Lu don't move no cowards, you only heard Lions" I dont know how ot explain it but i see a relation in him saying he doesnt move cows, he herds lions...

When lupe says he doesnt move cows he herds lions, hes saying he doesnt entertain and cater to "cows" or the mainstream media/fans that want "artists" like t-pain but instead herds lions as in he spits real insightful things for those who actually appreciate real music. He is also saying "lu dont moo no Cow WORDS, you only heard LINES" which is like he doesnt spit nonsense "cow words" but lines "insightful, real things"

Exactly what ciege said. Props. This song is sick as fuck.

This is probably my favorite thing that Lupe does. Not only does he have real, meaningful lyrics, he doubles them up so that if you combine/separate words, or blur a couple letters it becomes a whole different line that is equally insightful. Easily the best/deepest lyricist of our time, no matter what genre.
