LUPE FIASCO lyrics : "He Say She Say"

(feat. Gemini, Sarah Green)

I can't, I won't, I can't, I won't

Let you leave
I don't know what you want
You want more from me?


She said to him
"I want you to be a father

He's your little boy and you don't even bother
Like "brother" without the R
And he's starting to harbor

Cool and food for thought
But for you he's a starver
Starting to use red markers on his work

His teacher say they know he's much smarter
But he's hurt
Used to hand his homework in first

Like he was the classroom starter
Burst to tears
Let them know she see us

Now he's fighting in class
Got a note last week that say he might not pass
Ask me if his daddy was sick of us

Cause you ain't never pick him up
You see what his problem is?
He don't know where his poppa is

No positive male role model
To play football and build railroad models
It's making a hole you've been digging it

Cause you ain't been kicking it
Since he was old enough to hold bottles
Wasn't supposed to get introduced to that

He don't deserve to get used to that
Now I ain't asking you for money or to come back to me
Some days it ain't sunny but it ain't so hard

Just breaks my heart
When I try to provide and he say 'Mommy that ain't your job'
To be a man, I try to make him understand

That I'm his number one fan
But its like he born from the stands
You know the world is out to get him, so why don't you give him a chance?"


So he said to him
"I want you to be a father

I'm your little boy and you don't even bother
Like "brother" without the R
And I'm starting to harbor

Cool and food for thought
But for you I'm a starver
Starting to use red markers on my work

My teacher say they know I'm much smarter
But I'm hurt
I used to hand my homework in first

Like I was the classroom starter
Burst to tears
Let them know he see us

Now I'm fighting in class
Got a note last week that say I might not pass
Kids ask me if my daddy is sick of us

Cause you ain't never pick me up
You see what my problem is?
That I don't know where my poppa is

No positive male role model
To play football and build railroad models
It's making a hole you've been digging it

Cause you ain't been kicking it
Since I was old enough to hold bottles
Wasn't supposed to get introduced to that

I don't deserve to get used to that
Now I ain't asking you for money or to come back to me
Some days it ain't sunny but it ain't so hard

Just breaks my heart
When my momma try to provide and I tell her 'That ain't your job'
To be a man, she try to make me understand

That she my number one fan
But its like you born from the stands
You know the world is out to get me, why don't you give me a chance?"
