First time writing lyrics…This song is amazing so I felt I had to =)
(Lupe Fiasco)
Yeah, Just a lil bit (just a lil bit) And it goes
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
Bought a big house and a whole lot of rangers
A fresh new couch and a whole lot of trainers
A closet full of clothes and some brand new dangers
And
Some Mexican floor will arrange us
A great big TV that’ll entertain us
Some colorful commissions for some high paid painters
Someone to take the wrap so that I stay stainless
And
A new relationship with a banker
Two pinky rings for my manicured fingers
A trained German Shepard that bark when it’s angered
To watch my possessions and look out for strangers
And
A 50 foot yacht with an anchor
Young supermodel that shall remain nameless
Ups and the downs, the sames and the changes
All the money in the world don’t make it painless (no)
(Chorus)
(But they love it and they love it)
The more you try to erase me
(And they love it and they love it)
The more I appear, oh
(and they love it and they love it)
The more, the more you try to erase her
The more that You appear
(Kanye West)
(Plain Pat what up?)
Lifestyles of the broke and famous
Let you know how crazy this game is
Look at all the new beautiful faces
At home supermodel, myspaces
Long for their shot on the TV screens
American Idol never seen these dreams
Just last week they want to see ID
Now they got you in VIP, huh?
How many people almost famous
You almost remember what they name is
Like “Hey, didn’t you play in..? No it couldn’t be, quit playinâ€
I try to keep that balance
After MTV that’s a Real World Challenge
Back on that train
Never to be heard from again…
(Chorus)
(But they love it and they love it)
The more you try to erase me
(And they love it and they love it)
The more I appear, oh
(and they love it and they love it)
The more, the more you try to erase her
The more that You appear
(Pharrell)
G.R.I.P P.I.M.P
I, any spelling bitch come on that’s me
I bring a burning sensation to the urban eye
Like an eye-drop of Turpentine
You can listen to the serpent, fine
But the earth got gas once it burps its fire
Someone around me they talk about the guise (?)
Not G.H.G, how to cook a quarter key
Talking all nasal, he aint over that cold
No glove scrub, Manny just over that stove
Perfect paradigm
Wrong place wrong time
Should have been in fine at GlaxoSmithKline
Number one chemist
Look at him no blemish
Egg shell off white like a DuPont finish
Young, dumb, high strung, who could handle us
I wonder how Gods gon’ paint today’s canvasses
Cause who knew that day that man would just
Go to VA with a Tec and spray campuses
What a way to see the cover of Time
I know that nigga wish he was standing in line
To see it….As if he didn’t do it.
(Chorus)
(But they love it and they love it)
The more you try to erase me
(And they love it and they love it)
The more I appear, oh
(and they love it and they love it)
The more, the more you try to erase her
The more that you appear

Yeah Its Thom Yorke from Radiohead on the chorus. They sampled his track “Eraser” of his solo album The Eraser.

Its “Mexican Floral Arrangers” instead of “Mexican floor will arrange us”
MixtapeMania.com is working on convincing these guys to do a mixtape. I know they have a remix mash up complete but are working
on perfecting it.
