Lupe Fiasco - American Terrorist 3 lyrics

rate me

Hello gorgeous

The phone call's probably being recorded

Just know that I did it for the four of us

And those mutherfuckers kept ignorin' us

After this I'm going underground

If they come asking give them the run-around

How does costa rica in the summer sound?

Couple days then we moving to another town

Yea I know them dreams, seems

Just know that time'll never come between

Space either, fake features

Things that we reject but connects all us believers

The insurrection's gone viral

They'll never stop it now

I hope it all spirals

Outta control, like a dam with a hole

From here on out it's all about survival

The way we left things they probably think we rivals

But don't be naive, they hate you more than I do

Remember always speak in opposites, I hate you so much, it's such a compliment

I know that defies the common sense, but we ain't never been right: honestness

We never fit in school, and never did rules, but who'd a thought we'd turn out bombing shit

I'm giving you a nightcall to tell you how I feel

I want to drive you through the night down the hills

I'm gonna tell you something don't want to hear

I'm gonna show you where it's dark but have no fear

He said he was just so tired, of them fighting our water with fire

He said that we need something drier, to really impress the empire

Funny cause he really hated war, but why we went to war is what he really hated more

Said it's silly how that our schools make us stupid and our jobs make us poor

When he came back from the corps, is when he really got serious

Read a lot of books, started acting all mysterious

The va is what really made him furious, told him his condition didn't exist, period

That's why he started that petition, went all the way to washington, said they didn't listen to a white male christian

He just laughed when they took our father's pension

He said that you gotta act in opposites, helps you hide your tracks when you stand up to the dominant

But I knew he felt bad, told me later was the saddest day he ever had

To see our dad so hopeless, that was the turning point that's what really gave him focus

I didn't agree with everything, some of it made sense

But never thought that he would do something like this

I know you don't watch but your brother was on tv

Couple guys in black suits came around to see me

They went through all your book's and took all of your cds

My granny said you'd be all right, she saw it in the tea leaves

All the operations going well, had a lotta contact from all the other cells

Everybody, everywhere is calling you a hero

They going through the rubble, but the body count is zero

It's all violent and bloodless, I know the government really loves this

This account is hacked, you know how to keep in touch

I'll never see you again, I hate you so much

There's something inside you

It's hard to explain

They're talking about you boy

But you're still the same
