Friend of People

Friend! Friend![Verse 1: Lupe]

Lu, coupe, no, more doors

Porsche or, no, more doors, sedan

Hmmm, 4-more, no, more doors, more doors than that

Lord of the

Rings, that

Frodo went to war for, you'll see more war than

World War 4 or

Lord of War when

Nicolas lost his brother

Brougham, no, man, too slow for my program

Need Punk rock, not slow jams, mosh pits not hold hands

Or slow dance, or romance,

I'll take this ***** like

Lo PanPut her right into

Do's hands, tell her how this gon' go, man[Hook: Dosage]

Animals, animals, we are more like cannibals

Follow rules, what rules?

We don't ever answer to

No King Tuts, no presidents, this is more like a ritual

What am I scared of death for?

Life is just an interlude[Verse 2: Dosage & Lupe]

Let's begin this interview,

I know they got a lot of questions

I dont have on a unitard, but

I can answer the detective

None of these ****s can trace me,

I don't go that direction

This is the beginning of a ********,

I'm tired of getting treated like a step-kid[Lupe]

This where

I step in, cause this

Dosage from

Philly and he so sick

And he's my friend, so he's your friend, it's who

Lupe Fiasco's with[Dosage]

They wanna know if

I'm insane,

I just don't accept defeat

But since

I'm nominated this is gonna be my acceptance speech

Your big bro requestin' me 'cuz

I'm a friend of the people and

I'm next to be

In the game,

I don't hear the referees whistling technically

Dixie, let me sing!"I wish I was in the land of cottonOld times they are not forgottenLook away! Look away! Look away!"

I forever see

Don't go back or forever be a slave to the nation

Touché, Lupe, this is history in the making[Verse 3: Lupe]

We so in Smithsonians when the story ends

We was there when the story started, making history before we's artists

You know we's targets:

Tar-get, it's always star ****

Or shall I say hot-wired, ride around reckless and double-park it

Look how many fines that the car get

Take the boots off it, throw the tickets in the garbage

Then go to court just to get up on some smart ****

Tell the **********ing judge it's all ours, *****
