Lupe Fiasco - Break The Chain lyrics
rate meFeat. Eric Turner & Sway
[Hook]
I waited all my life to play
But i still cant find the way
But if i were to get one day
I might just break the chain (x3)
[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
Freedom, we can use some of that especially where we from
Where we grew up like a green thumb
Its like a criminal is the only thing you can become
Look at what I became
Something like a phenom, nothin but a g thang
Things I’ve seen when I’m looking out of these frames
Pictures I painted on the walls where we hang
From the trees we hung
Strange fruit man look at how we swung
How the hell you gonna tell us something
We ain’t have a father
How to try to grow up and be one
See umm feel it in my bones
That I’m sittin on a throne
Like a killer with a chrome
When I spit another poem
Shed a whole lot of light on a little bit of home, blaow
[Hook]
[Verse 2: Sway]
Super Swah, the cape remains, thought I was M.I.A no paper?
Planes, I’m fly plus I don’t write no more
Its all off of the top I shaved the braids
And stayed sharp mother knew how to raise-a-blade (Razor Blade)
I paid my dues now I wait for change and the flows so rude it goes without…
Ask Lupe I’m Sucre, I aid the Break
Quick to cut off any baggage like some samurai I like to travel light
I’ve gotta leave you at home Delilah
This is Samson-ite
No case for the police
Said I know Killah’s, I never seen them
Ghostface, only thing I’m watching is my Panerai
I’ve got an alibi
I was taking pics of Chicago, call me Camera Chi (shy)
[Hook]
[Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco]
Chain broke, you ain’t make a rep for your chain smoke
No cigarrettes on my plane, yo
Stunt your ham bones from the game though
Put it on mine, take a long time
B-A-Barack is how I’m livin’ online
In a webisode, necklace glow, let ‘em know
That I put up the footage that I’ve taken your shine
Wanna see the real chains look in your mind
Your brain look like your ? brotha
Overgrow, overload, broken zone
N-ggas playing games in the hood they got you stuck-up
Playa think its cool to be a pimp still
We gon’ set it free like a fish in a pin pill
Take this home, rearrange it, change it
Danger, Sway-zer, Lupe Laser. Pow!
[Hook]
