LUPE FIASCO lyrics : "Superheroes (American Terrorist Pt. 2)"
Walks the secret life, bullet proof and bulging muscle
Death defiant, highest flying over trouble
"Can you please come and help us out of hopeless struggles?"
Sympathy is wearing off and dying out
In the face off all these enemies and crying out
Losing all his energy from finding out
The world is filled with ills ever so close to timing out
Where are the superheroes?
Pondering that supervillains got a point
Told the captain on the roof while they were smoking joints
Flicked the ashes down onto the street below
Looked up, said he hate the city now, even though
He swore that he'd protect it when he landed
And perspectives now changed, all pretty much abandoned
The captain sprayed cologne around and said he understand it
Its getting hard to separate the saints from the satanic
Where are the superheroes?
Last remarks "They did it to themselves
I killed off Heaven, now I live in Hell
So complicit in their own non-survival
Told them that they biggest rival, is inside you
I do possess the power to revive you
But if I did that, I'd just have to fight you
Cause you truly are the hero and the villain"
The world stood froze hearing a truth so chillin'
Reporters stopped filming, somebody shouted kill him
He looked back in disgust, and flew up through the ceilin'
Busted through the roof, and kicked over the building
Before it hit the ground, a younger hero flew around
And put it on his shoulders
Said "You're naive now
But believe, you'll believe me when you're older
Every asteroid you stop, a bomb you fly up into space
You ain't saving them from danger, you keeping danger safe"
Where are the superheroes?
In my hands, all the peace and all the glory
In my hands
In my hands
In my hands, all the peace and all the glory
In my hands
In my hands
