(feat. Josh Matranga)


[Lupe Fiasco]

Uhh.. yeah

He just sits, and watches the people in the boxes

Everything he sees he absorbs and adopts it

Heeeeee mimics and he mocks it

Really hates the box but he can't remember how to stop, it

Uhh, so he continues to watch it

Hopin that it'll give him somethin that he can box with

Or how the locksmith, see the box as, locked in the box

Ain't got the combination to unlock, it

That's why he watch-es, scared to look away

Cause at that moment, it might show him

What to take off the locks with

So he chained hisself to the box, took a lock and then he locked it

Swallowed the combination and then forgot, it

As the doctors jot it all down, with they pens and pencils

The same ones that took away his voice

And just left this instrumental, like that



[Chorus: Josh Matranga + (Lupe)]

And he never lies (he never lies, he never lies, uhh)

And he never lies (uhh, he never lies, he never lies, no)

And he never lies (he never lies)

Cause he never said anything at all



[Lupe Fiasco]

He just sits, and listens to the people in the boxes

Everything he hears he absorbs and adopts it

Anything not comin out the box he blocks it

See he loves to box and hope they never stop it

Anything the box tell him to do, he does it

Anything it tell him to get, he shops and he cops it

He protects the box, locks it in a box

when he goes to sleep, but he never sleeps

Cause he stays up to watch it, scared to look away

Cause at that moment, it might get stolen

And that's the last of the boxes

So he chained hisself to the box, took a lock and then he locked it

Swallowed the combination and then forgot, it

As the doctors jot it all down, with they pens and pencils

The same ones that took away his voice

And just left this instrumental, like that



[Chorus]



[Lupe Fiasco]

(Anything at all..) He never lies

Uhh, and you can't tell me just who you are

You burn them flows just to hide those scars

You built that roof just to hide those stars

Now you can't take it back to the start

And you can't tell me just who you are

You burn them flows just to hide those scars

You built that roof just to hide those stars

Now you can't take it back to the start



[Chorus]



[Lupe Fiasco]

(Anything at all.. anything at all..)

Uhh, and you can't tell me just who you are

You burn them flows just to hide those scars

You built that roof just to hide those stars

Now you can't take it back to the start

And you can't tell me just who you are

You burn them flows just to hide those scars

You built that roof just to hide those stars

Now you can't take it back to the start
