Lyrics[]
[Chorus: Billy Blue]
I'm on my way, I say
Tell them I'm on my way
We all live and die, life and death, no surprise (Yeah)
Tell him I'm on my way
Real n***a shit, yeah
[Verse 1: Billy Blue]
I'm tryna fight the temptation that the n***as hate
My occupation got me livin' next to Satan
The shit I've seen, the [?]
I only wonder where he lost his faith
If he kept his shit together, could've been the great
So I helped him reminisce on his mistakes
So for now, take this n***er out
And look me in the eyes and say "That's all you got?"
It's [?]
But we both know you had a hard life
I'm lookin' at my kids and I go harder
Life is a struggle for a Black father
Slide through the hood down 7th Ave
Hit 135th, took it to the Bay
R-I-P, my n***a dying
And hopin' [?] see a third dead body
The world cold, I could never trust a n***a
Birds of a feather, please don't make me pluck a n***a
That's what the street life showed me
Nowadays, your enemy's the police
I just wanna be a new [?]
For my n***as in a box gettin' no sleep
I got the game that you can't teach
So take a seat and let a young n***a preach
[Chorus: Lupe Fiasco]
I'm on my way, I say
Tell them I'm on my way
We all live and die, life and death, no surprise
Tell them I'm on my way
Lupe! Yo
[Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]
Big scenes, make a n***a give me twenty feet
Black holes on my soul to the cookie sheet
Movin' way, losin' faith and a booker peace
Heaven tried, devil's pie, took a crooked piece
Born Black and Muslim [?] both ways
So I learned to put 30 cent and [?] on both [?]
Surrounded by [?] since the OJs
They don't trust hoes, and kill out the OK
Better me go when they get there
I don't trust n***as or the police
The only thing that matters if the Ferrari got four seats
Thousand black diamonds, silver lining and the [?]
Just a dark chapter from the arch rapper
Staying out the way, evading our capture
Staying or runaway [?], I get on my capture
Staying or runaway like a [?]
I know my way around the bins like a carjacker
Bad luck's around suckers like a charm [?]
Game, I put a chain on it, I never change blocks
[?] R-I-PS to to n***as I can't name drop
You sell [?], you ain't set up to be a [?] spot
19, first row, [?]
Bitches with candy-coated raindrops
As long as they [?] till the pain stops
Gangstas who laugh at the terror that they can raise
But they don't exercise or recognize the error of their ways
That don't mean that they bitches, that don't mean that you brave
Money don't mean that you pay
'Cause n***as got dues, and n***as got rues
Never walk around in another n***as shoes
By rapping n***a woes and by singing the n***a blues
[Chorus]
Tell them I'm on my way, I say
Tell them I'm on my way
We all live and die, life and death, no surprise
Tell him I'm on my way
We all live and die, life and death, no surprise
Tell him I'm on my way
Tell him I'm on my way
Tell him I'm on my way
Tell him I'm on my way
Tell him I'm on my way
Tell him I'm on my way
Tell him I'm on my way
[Outro]
Chapter three of the Qu'ran 5:33
he punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement
