Lupe Fiasco - Letting Go Lyrics
(feat. Sarah Green)[Hook: Lupe Fiasco]Things are getting outta controlFeels like I'm running out of soulYou are getting too heavy to holdThink I'll be letting you go[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]My self portrait shows a man that the wealth torturedSelf-absorbed with his own self-forfeitA shelf full of awardsWorshiping the war ships that set sail on my sea of lifeWhen I see my own self I wonder if we still see a lightWe was tight seeing lightsSpeaking right and breathing lifeNow I see my demons and barely even sleep at nightI don't get high life keep me at a decent heightAs the old me I predicted all my recent plightsExhausted. Trying to fall asleep. Losses at my recent fightsBurdens on my shoulders now, burnin' all my motives downInspiration drying up, motivation slowing down[Hook][Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]I'm begging me don't let me goWe vow like the letter "Oh"To never go our separate waysAnd spin-off into separate showsTired of all the wardrobe changin'Playing all these extra rolesFilled with all these different spiritsLivin' off these separate soulsPoint in life is getting hollowCan't wait for the exit holeGive me room. The entry room. Let me in and let me goSo I can roam around this wildernessSee it for what it really isI'm prepared to filter listMagnify the youth in me, alibi the shootin' spreeAmplify the revolution, sanitize the lunacyStrip away the justice, justify the scrutinyI can see the lasers shootin' out of you and me[Hook][Bridge: Lupe Fiasco]Sometimes I feel like the worldâ€â€Sometimes I feel like the world is against meAnd everything that I've done beforeI swear we used to be so pureBut we can't be in love no moreCause I don't wanna fight this warBut when I put down my gunI turn around and pick up oneThis uzi weighs a ton, but I think I'm done![Hook][Outro: Sarah Green]Think I'll be letting you goThings are getting outta controlSaid, it feels like I'm running out of soulYou're getting heavy to holdI think I'll be letting you go...Letting you go
