[Lupe Fiasco, Crystal Torres, Jeff Kung - Air China lyrics]
Night, looking like giants, not the flights
Colossus watching the optics, are brighter
These demons blocking the right, might
Hop up in the sky
And start boxing the lights
Through the haze finding ways of expression
Past like graves on a train
And feel a wave of protection
Wisdom is a prison, not a cage for correction
Is it real or is it feel
Trying to gauge the connection
Discretion got me stepping like
Bears in the trap
VPN gang checking China Air with an app
No status on trying to keep
That baggage to a minimum
Linen gi, lemon tea, beef noodle gimme some
(yeah) look around, look around
Everybody's on their phones
It's a room full of
People but everybody's alone
Looking down, looking down
I even got the monks getting
Down to the sound i don't wanna leave
I just want to breathe Air China
I don't wanna die
I just want to fly Air China
Say, speaking to my sifu
Finding gold in his counselling
Fire car speed through a hole in the mountain
Next to the businessman with
His soul in accounting
Blessed be the hands that
Control the surroundings
Can we calculate fate can we look into the
Future and evaluate grace
Is it wisdom in the body
Treat death like a job (eh)
Living like a hobby (eh)
Master the form, stand behind, copy (whoop)
I'm skilled to the way flies play
On the anvil of the blacksmith
Martially off of fireworks sparkle
At the funeral
The practice is incense turned to
Ashes in a sense it represents life
And it's vastness in a flash
What came before becomes floor for
The inheritance of the assets
This too will burn and return to
His place among the masses
But not before sitting still in the traffic
And I wish you could come here with me
But no crying allowed in
These one tier cities
My hotel ain't got no fours in it
Repeat the form to my mind
Ain't go no wars in it fire in my belly
My doubts keep it warm in it
And don't authorize unless it's authentic
Ya hear me, even though you weary
Still move sincerely and do it all clearly
Listen to my father, I'm continuin' the saga
Faced with different missions
So I'm switching like the opera (Ye)
Bath stands
Heaven's in the body and there's
Weapons in the lobby
The fat faced baby, wise ladies
Imperfections, misconceptions
And assumptions
Stereotypes, corruptions and compunctions
Appropriations, mispronunciations and
Manipulations of the functions
We all let the junction like
I don't wanna leave
I just wanna breathe Air China
I don't wanna die, I just wanna fly Air China
