Lupe Fiasco - Lilies lyrics
rate me(Verse)
Come, and bring the pieces to the master
He who organize by size then completes them wit the plaster
Now, what should we call it?
After 12, cocktails prevails the inner alcoholic
Who knelt ya by the toilets?
Remember, remember? Just like the Knights of Malta
Niggas like their liquor malted
Mmanifested like a land without the Indian
Just all kith and foul kin
Whether Maltese or Millennium
Saucer, Chaucer of the airwaves
To assist once a nigga leaves, but her hair beige
The other's hair shaved
Both standing at the bottom of the staircase poised
But boys 2 coy to look in their face
Oi, bring the dowry, ya can have 'em
On annual sabbatical, looking lousy in the cabin
Groomin's only prudent to continue workin' wit humans
But ain't no living signals inside my circle of students
(Hook)
Lilies in the valley of my heart
Lay ya on yo back and fall apart
Lately I been looking at the sparks
It got my mind going back to Cali after dark
I got a problem wit commitment, I'd say
Laying here waiting on waves
To wash away the palisades
Barriers and barricades
In the lilies in the valley of my heart
(Verse 2)
Leave, and take these pictures to the pawn shop
Tell 'em ya want the same amount of $ that the one got
Pull up on the side of his Ghost and let the Dijon drop
If they muster up the courage to murk us at the Quran swaps
Fo' the ones that tell ya how to orchestrate the bomb plots
Taught ya well on how to tell the impostors
Made an inner city Mosque in Mississippi, Madrassas
Much like differences in instances, itty-bitty is topless
That was food fo' the fingers
Dim the lights to set the mood fo' the singers
Who can turn the stage into a school fo' the redeemers?
Like an agent teaching Afghans to use the tool wit the stingers
Useful as a back tire to a flat tire
A bazooka's yo best friend until it backfires
Yo strata needs a bunk bed ladder to climb up
And high hopes will put this whole matter behind us
(Hook)
Lilies in the valley of my heart
Lay ya on yo back and fall apart
Lately I been looking at the sparks
It got my mind going back to Cali after dark
I got a problem wit commitment, I'd say
Laying here waiting on waves
To wash away the palisades
Barriers and barricades
In the lilies in the valley of my heart
(Verse 3)
Still, debunkin' the myth of a sleepover
As the enola sneaks over
The seat thinkin' ricolas fixes Ebola
Call up heathens and thieves incase police show up
Out the belly of the beast, makin' the streets blow up
Blowing in the hands, makin' the heat hold us in streaks
All my skills on the hilltop, ya can hear a quill drop
Spoon full of sugar help the pill pop
Let us Tetris, lil blocks until the bill clots
And then fill spots and make the field drop
Levels, wearin' the baron's medals
Otherwise bare expect fo' a pair of petals
Something like a bear except he's wearing a ?
Fair safe haven to take yo share of DeNiro
In his care, might square to a pair of ya share hold
Heavily invested to bury Harry is venom now
(Hook)
Lilies in the valley of my heart
Lay ya on yo back and fall apart
Lately I been looking at the sparks
It got my mind going back to Cali after dark
I got a problem wit commitment, I'd say
Laying here waiting on waves
To wash away the palisades
Barriers and barricades
In the lilies in the valley of my heart
