Piru Blues - Lupe Fiasco

Show me how to breathe again

Give me a reason to end

This pain and all the suffering

Is there something can I wait

It's hard to believe again

Is it something

It may be nothing nothing

Blood stains on the camouflage jacket

And love pained hands

On the fully automatic

She looks into the eyes

Of her comrade slash lover

Comcast cspan cover

Warfare rages on the other

Side of the world where

The revolution udders

In a language besides

Brotherly love for the sufferers

It's the sacrifice that touches her

He brushes her cheek smeared

With black smudges of

All the dirt he picked up

From falling to the earth

Where them things fall

So far to love and so into berserk

Supplies in the church

But nothing of worth

That can repair the heart

So out comes the tears

And in come the vision

Gargoyles and griffins

The tension the

The stiffin release

On his way to god

Guarded by the beast

She picks up his rifle

And rushes to the street

Show me how to breathe again

Give me a reason to end

This pain and all the suffering

Is there something can I wait

It's hard to believe again

Is it something

It may be nothing nothing

With blood stains

On the chinchilla fur

And a hundred bullet

Holes in the rolls royce spurt

Through designer sunglasses

The world is a blur

Diamonds are being ripped

From the neck of a third

Second and first seem so unneeded

But this one she feels

That he got what he deserved

The money floats

The liquor spills

She dances on macabres

And nigger-as being killed

Skeletons dance with her

A elegant prance amidst the

Whores and the drunks

The sinners and the punks

A parliament of fools

Baptized in the funk

Cologne don't stop bullets

No matter where you put it

But they spray it in the trunk

It mixes with the blood

And the residue of ***

It hits her all at once

Stings the nostrils

As our rihanna as madonna in nirvana

Be witches in other hostel

Show me how to breathe again

Give me a reason to end

This pain and all the suffering

Is there something can I wait

It's hard to believe again

Is it something

It may be nothing

Show me how to breathe again

Give me a reason to end

This pain and all the suffering

Is there something can I wait

It's hard to believe again

Is it something

It may be nothing nothing

With blood stains

On the maxi pad missing

We welcome another soul

Into the land of the living

Something about the

Mirror so different

It smiles

Now how could glass smile

So she runs into the kitchen

The microwave the spoons

And the plates

Everywhere where

There's a reflection of her face

The turned off tv

The cell phone and laptop screen be

Looking jubilant as jeezy

In the trap or gucci

In the chain shop

A fan getting name dropped

This wasn't in the plans

But the pain stopped

And held the daffodils

Pleasant surprise not

In the newspaper horoscope

Or seen in the leaves of a chamomile

She must've missed it

Probably surprised

Out of the bag cause she dissed it

Learned her lesson she feels terrific

Show me how to breathe again

Give me a reason to end

This pain and all the suffering

Is there something can I wait

It's hard to believe again

Is it something

It may be nothing nothing

Show me how to breathe again

Give me a reason to end

This pain and all the suffering

Is there something can I wait

It's hard to believe again

Is it something

It may be nothing nothing
