[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
|
Sometimes dreams, peace of paper I got reams
|
Where the D go?, Put that on a rose and now you
|
Pronounce it hero, you see?
|
Lu see like La Brea & Pico, with binoculars on my peephole
|
I feel my best work was album zero
|
Now with Deniro its boo boo in my backyard and
|
Ben burnt down my gazebo that Deniro's ah casino
|
Wit spit in the sandwich of the police though
|
They ain't see the steel plate up under my seat though
|
Still play it like Shaquille but I can free throw
|
I ain't playing but I compete, I ain't a player but I'm complete
|
And that's the win win a mason mind can't sign if the pen's Templar
|
Night vision on white linen is still green
|
Peace of Paper I got reams, make it rain
|
To make em smile, now rake it into piles
|
And go buy ya self some style, prom night/cat walk
|
Prepared the suit for weeks, or effortless as a Parisian
|
Walking down the street, I ain't in it
|
I just walking round some beats
|
Tongue in cheek, just talking round some teeth
|
Neighborhood watching
|
Made of good options, mastermind times
|
Neighborhood hoodie take the hood shopping
|
Back track to the stolen plates
|
Whats a closed wallet to an open safe
|
Say your grace
|
Peace of Paper/Cup of Jayzus what we writing?
|
These ain't entendres these is secret indictments
|
Litte secret excitements
|
For willing minds I'm feeling fine
|
Balling hard and killing rhymes
|
Knocking off bigs and stealing shines
|
Hey shawty is it crime?
|
To DMV everytime until I give em license
|
They waiting on lines
|
Peace of Paper I'm Kerry James
|
Commissions fly as the Constitution as a plane
|
Peace of Paper Cup of JAYZUS what we doing?
|
Pizza Lasers/ Cup of Razors
|
What you choosing?
|
Choosy mothers choose the smoothest peanut butters
|
And more cognizant fathers do George Washington Carver
|
A break from the paper it means do you identify more
|
With what's being made or the maker?
|
I'm what's being chased
|
I'm not the chaser
|
Cup of JAYZUS Peace of Paper
|
Check it, now paper make a plane & paper make it rain
|
But how fly is paper plane in the rain?
|
I'm fly paper on the brain
|
This and 2 ply paper just ain't the same
|
I do do it for the bottom
|
In the air is where I stop em
|
I threw words like 2 birds, that's Batman and Robin
|
To answer all your hunches that's just how I throw my punches
|
We must somehow become a family that's why I throw em in bunches
|
Mushroom clouds or on the flo' with the fungus
|
If you look em up and down
|
From the foot to where he put his crown
|
The slow Pan to understand is Shaq on the shoulders of Yao
|
Over and over for miles,
|
Peace of Paper, Cup of JAYZUS made a movie
|
Thank God on Friday, then buy a ruby on Tuesday
|
A couple beats from Jay, a couple beats from Ye
|
& make Food for thought, that's a restaurant in a day!
|
It would behoove thee
|
The critics say that I fell off I acknowledge I slipped
|
But what do you call falling from space into a bottomless pit?
|
And not pit like how Lui Kang can knock Baraka off with a hit
|
Knock it off for a bit
|
What would be really funny if I blew up after Drizzy
|
And started from the bottomless back to the topless like a watcher of Strips
|
Peace of Paper, Cup of JAYZUS,
|
Peace of Paper, Cup of JAYZUS, bout it, bout it
|
Don't let ya inner fears result in a outer coward
|
From baby showers to 80 flowers upon my coffin roof
|
The upper class glass is not filled up with the coughing proof
|
Be more P and step ya Yessirs Up
|
P-O-P! Jayzus a cup of Courage, I can't can't
|
Thats double negative it's 2 earls
|
They really nice but they'll never touch the cup
|
Its like I gave it to two girls
|
This my odd future out in front Supreme shop
|
Fly as Rick Ross at a Wing Stop
|
Thought Kick Push was about drugs
|
It's not but just to be super sure
|
But from your perspective it might seem
|
Like Supreme out in front of Odd Future Store
|
So that skaters and skiers
|
Nose grinders and grinding up
|
Nose powders with ether
|
Not an Earl diss either but he might think it be and be like
|
"Lu's new should be Mr.Pure 2positive Shakur and 2 be sure he's
|
Not that really nice, That 2 girls and cup line sucked
|
It really means he gave himself a cup twice"
|
You just witnessed a double, a probable Odd Future diss in the future
|
And me ghostwriting my own rebuttals
|
You can't do that with a single cup
|
You gone need a couple, again you got a double
|
Got my shot on the rocks, but don't stop, keep pouring til it's a puddle
|
Peace of Paper Cup of JAYZUS what's the drive?
|
Greatest Rapper Alive or Greatest Rapper That Died?
|
Then on judgement day they say the greatest rapper's revived
|
Oh look who's here the greatest rapper's arrived!!
|
At the birthday party the greatest rapper surprised!!!
|
Bumped into Doom the greatest rappers collide
|
Everybody dead but AZ the greatest rapper survived
|
I'm not the greatest rapper... the greatest rappers' a lie,
|
Got the same points as Lux the greatest rappers a tie
|
Told Jean, Foxy, & Rah the greatest rapper's a girl
|
They said the greatest rapper's a guy
|
Phone rang it was Ghost he said
|
"Kiss the greatest rapper... Goodbye!"
|
Chris said Common, Common said Kweli
|
Talib said I'm sure it's Mos Definitely!!
|
Peace of Paper Cup of JAYZUS
|
Smack might have the greatest but now I'm just playing favorites
|
Playing flavored to be reminiscent of Miles on smack playing faded
|
Peace of.... these niggas is nice
|
Knees like these niggas aight
|
Shins like listen to them, ankles like shins making sense
|
Feet like why you running behind these niggas
|
They still trying to step inside ya prints
|
Bear trap rap don't step inside the clinch
|
Where da at? Don't jeopardize a better stride for limps
|
I exercise at length so electrify the fence
|
Let me inside the danger room on level 5 with the weaponized defense
|
With an extra side of the next guy's petty exercise attempts
|
The ghost of my career, better than most of what they revere
|
I take my targets and throw them back on my spear
|
I'm outta here
|
