Lupe Fiasco - Lilies Lyrics
[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]Come, and bring the pieces to the masterHe who organize by size then completes them with the plasterNow, what should we call it?After the 12 *****tails prevails the inner alcoholicWho knelt you by the toilets?Remember, remember? Just like the Knights of MaltaN****s like their liquor malted, manifested like a land without the IndianJust all kith and foul kinWhether Maltese or MillenniumSaucer, Chaucer of the airwavesToo assist once a n***a leaves, but her hair beigeThe other's hair shavedBoth standin' at the bottom of the staircase poisedBut boys too coy to look in their faceOy bring the dabber, you can have 'emOn annual sabbatical, lookin' lousy in the cabinGroomin's only prudent to continue working with humansBut ain't no livin' signals inside my circle of studentsHuh, huh[Hook: Sirah]Lilies in the valley of my heartLay you on your back and fall apartLately I been looking at the sparksIt got my mind going back to Cali after darkI got a problem with commitment I'd sayLaying here waiting on wavesTo wash away the palisadesBuried as a barricadePut the lily in the valley of my heart[Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]Leave, and take these pictures to the pawn shopTell 'em you want the same amount of money that the one gotPull up on the side of his Ghost and let the Dijon dropIf they muster up the courage to murk us at the Quran swapsFor the ones that tell you how to orchestrate the bomb plotsTaught you well on how to tell the impostorsMade an inner city Mosque in Mississippi, MadrassasMuch like differences in instances, itty-bitty is toplessThat was food for the fingersDim the lights to set the mood for the singersWho can turn the stage into a school for the redeemersLike an agent teaching Afghans to use the tool with the stingersUseful as a back tire to a flat tireA bazooka's your best friend until it backfiresYour strata needs a bunk bed ladder to climb upAnd high hopes will put this whole matter behind us[Hook: Sirah]Lilies in the valley of my heartLay you on your back and fall apartLately I been looking at the sparksIt got my mind going back to Cali after darkI got a problem with commitment I'd sayLaying here waiting on wavesTo wash away the palisadesBuried as a barricadePut the lily in the valley of my heart[Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco]Still, debunking the myth of a sleepoverAs the enola sneaks overThe seat thinking ricolas fixes EbolaHol' up, heathens and thieves, in case police show upOut the belly of the beast, making the streets blow upBlowing in her hands, making the heat hold her us in streaksAll my skills on the hilltop, you can hear a quill dropSpoon full of sugar help the pill popLet us Tetris, little blocks until the bill clotsAnd then fill spots and make the field dropLevels, wearing the barren's medalsOtherwise bare expect for a pair of petalsSomethin' like a bear except he's wearing a pareoFair safe haven to take your share of De NiroIn his care, might square to a pair of you share holdHeavily invested to bury every [?] now[Hook: Sirah]Lilies in the valley of my heartLay you on your back and fall apartLately I been looking at the sparksIt got my mind going back to Cali after darkI got a problem with commitment I'd sayLaying here waiting on wavesTo wash away the palisadesBuried as a barricadePut the lily in the valley of my heart
