"Cold Out"

[Hook]
Hold me close, let me come
Wrap your arms around me, tonight
'Cause it's cold out tonight
But I'm so warm in your arms
'Cause it's cold out tonight
But I'm so warm in your arms

[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
Listen, she say she love me
I say she love me not
All my boy's say she lovely, watch this I know
I am already aware
We are already there, there
Being here, here, being emotion of poking my eyes out
You know what I's 'bout
Never walk into anything blind
Anything I'm involved in, it's properly investigated
Assessed and rated before I invest and make it
Official I done raid your wrist boo
How long did it take to frisk you, yes this too
Not that I been hurt before, it's just general principle
You wanna be Lu lieutenant
It ain't ever been two minutes
At ease, recline ma
Sit back please, repairing to break off
You ain't even got your tickets, you're preparing to take off
Chill

[Hook]
'Cause it's cold out tonight
But I'm so warm in your arms
'Cause it's cold out tonight
But I'm so warm in your arms

[Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]
I done been many places, I done seen many Avril Lavigne
Singing the same song, sweeting they game strong
Feeding they frame on but me unimpressed, been bring the same dong
You relate to my label make that don't make you mate
Move to Atlanta that don't make you Mase
Meaning that don't make you saint
Dark and lovely that don't make you straight
Some of the most beautiful women that's ugly
Okay boo, vice versa like your jeans
Like your purse but I peruse many of shoe
Nine West to Jimmy Choo upon my floor mat
And kno' that don't change my floor mat
You can dress, yes, I adore that
But what I am more more
Is much more then what you wore
Can't even be bought in the store
(Yo, did you record that, cool)

[Hook]
'Cause it's cold out tonight
But I'm so warm in your arms
'Cause it's cold out tonight
But I'm so warm in your arms

[Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco]
Clear I done read your bio
I done got your info
I'll be the A&R
Go 'head and shop your demo
Go get behind the mic, I'll be the engineer
Wanna get in the mix, well lady listen here
I'll takes some time out to take you out your daily grind
Send a car service to lift you out your studio
And you can give the booth at [?]
Or just go to Harold's
I'mma play the beat, go 'head and sing your carols
But before you rhyme, let me keep it real
You may not get sign and I don't promise deals
But if you do right and you can handle pressure
Maybe we can make beautiful music together
Yessir
