BREAK THE CHAIN (feat. Eric Turner & Sway)

Lyrics

(Chorus - Eric Turner)
 I waited all my life to play,
 I still can't find a way.
 But if I work it one more day,
 I might just break the chain,
 I might just break the chain,
 I might just break the chain,
 Aye-yeah, I might just break the chain.
 (Verse One - Lupe Fiasco)
 Freedom - we can use some of that especially where we from,
 Where we grew up like a green thumb, like a criminal the only thing you can become
 Look at what I became, something like a phenom, nuttin' but a g-thang
 Things I've seen when I'm looking out of these frames
 Pictures I've painted on the walls where we hang
 From the trees we hung, a strange fruit man look at how we swung
 How the hell you gonna tell us sunt' when ain't have a father how to try 'n' grow up and be one
 See um', I feel it in my bones
 When I'm sitting on a throne
 Like a killer with a chrome
 When I spit another poem,
 Shed a whole lotta like on a little bit of home.
 POW!
 (Chorus - Eric Turner)
 (Verse Two - Sway DeSafo)
 ♪
 Super Swah, the cape remains,
 Thought I was M.I.A - no paper planes, I'm fly.
 Plus I don't write no more, it's all off of the top I shaved the braids
 And stay sharp, mother knew how to raise a blade (razor blade)
 I paid my dues now I wait for change
 With a flow so rude it goes without
 Ask Lupe, I'm Surce I aid the breaks
 Quick to cut off any baggage like some samurai I like to travel light
 I gotta leave you at home Delilah, this is Samson night (Samsonite)
 No case for the po-lace (police)
 Said I know Killah's I never seen 'em, Ghostface
 Only time I'm watching is my Panerai
 I've got an alibi
 I was taking pictures in Chicago call me camera shy (chi)
 (Chorus - Eric Turner)
 (Verse Three - Lupe Fiasco)
 ♪
 Chain broke, get a nicorette for your chain smoke
 No cigarrettes on my plane, yo
 Snatch your herringbones from the game throat
 Put it on mine, take a long time
 B.A. Baracus is how I'm livin' online
 In a webisode, necklace glow, let 'em know
 That I put up the footage that I've taken your shine
 Wanna see the real chains look in your mind
 Your brain look like Keenan Wayans brotha
 Overgold, overload, broken soul
 N-ggas playing games in the hood they got you stuck-up
 Playa think its cool to be a pimp still
 We gon' set it free like a fish in a pimp heel
 Take this song, rearrange it, change it, danger, Sway-zer, Lupe Laser
 POW!
 (Chorus - Eric Turner) x2
