Lupe Fiasco - Letting You Go Lyrics
Things are getting out of controlFeels like I'm running out of soulYou're getting heavy to holdThink I'll be letting you goMy self-portrait shows a man that the wealth torturedSelf-absorbed with his own self-forfeit, A shelf full of awardsWorshipping the war ships that set sail on my sea of lifeWhere I see my own self I wonder if we still see a lightWe was tight seeing lights, speaking right and breathing lifeNow I see my demons and barely even sleep at nightI don't get high, life keep me at a decent heightAs the old me I predicted all my recent plightsExhausted, trying to fall asleep, losses at my recent fightsBurdens on my shoulders now, burning all my motives downInspiration drying up, motivation slowing downThings are getting out of controlFeels like I'm running out of soulYou're getting heavy to holdThink I'll be letting you goThink I'll let you goI'm begging me don't let me go, We vow like the letter 'O'To never go our separate ways, and spin-off into separate showsTired of all the wardrobe changing, playing all these extra rolesFilled with all these different spirits, living off these separate soulsPoint in life is getting hollow, can't wait for the exit holeGive me room, the entry room, let me in and let me goSo I can roam around this wilderness, see it for what it really isI'm prepared to filter listMagnify the youth in me, alibi the shooting spreeAmplify the revolution, sanitise the lunacyStrip away the justice, justify the scrutinyI can see the lasers, shooting out of you and meThings are getting out of controlFeels like I'm running out of soulYou're getting heavy to holdThink I'll be letting you goThink I'll be letting you goSometimes I feel like the world, Sometimes I feel like the world is against meAnd everything that I've done before, I swear we used to be so pureBut we can't be in love no more, cause I don't wanna fight this warBut when I put down my gun, I turn around and pick up oneThis Uzi weighs a ton, but I think I'm doneThings are getting out of controlFeels like I'm running out of soulYou're getting heavy to holdThink I'll be letting you goThink I'll be letting you goThings are getting, getting out of controlOh, said it feels like, like I'm running out of soulYou're getting heavy to holdThink I'll be letting you go
