Lupe Fiasco, Poo Bear - Brave Heart lyrics

May the Lord have mercy on my soul
Forgive me for my fetishes, my purchases
My clothes allow me to catch my rhythm
So the nervousness just goes
That's why I sound so certain in
My verses and my flows
The verbiage gets merciless this
Wordsmithness just rolls
I've tuned into my pertinence, my purposes
My goals the feeling when you realize you've
Been working for your foes
And the curtains have just opened
And they worthlessness exposed
You remember where you came from
Where the purchases was stole
There was nothing in the oven and
Just work up on the stove
And you blossomed from the bottom, yeah
You worked with it and rose
From nothing to a dozen and
A gardener there grows tell 'em!
Courage under fire, gave me a brave heart
(That's me)
Courage under fire, gave me a brave heart
(Yessir) brave heart
(yeah I got that) Brave heart
(You know) Brave heart

May the Lord have mercy on my soul
Like Scholls keep cushion where I land
Keep the devil off my heels
But please, keep me on my toes
Like a reposessor checking for
Everything I drove like I owe, but I don't
Paid my dues from the go
Doing donuts in the door
Keep my shoes on the floor
Revered by the rich
Plus approved by the poor
I've been sped up where they sniff it
(I've been sped up where they sniff it)
And screwed up where they pour
See I flew so way up high
And I SCUBA'd way down low
Put the top down on my fears
Put the roof up on my woes
I dropped that food and liquor to
Put you up on my stove
They shoplifted and stole
That just let me know they know
That was Lupe #1 now this version #4
And I still feel like a
Virgin me versus the globe
From the surface to the core
I took on the biggest wave
And I surfed it to the shore
With no pomade in my fro
Took the wood from the slave
Ships and furnished my abode
That boat is now my bed, desk
Dressers and my drawers
Now that's a house of pain!
Plus I use nooses when I
Hang up all my clothes
Couldn't change up if I chose that's me

Courage under fire, gave me a brave heart
(That's me)
Courage under fire, gave me a brave heart
(Yessir) brave heart
(yeah I got that) Brave heart
(You know) Brave heart
May the lord have mercy on my soul
