Lupe's Lesson

Lyrics

[Verse]
Lil' Lupe tiptoes on the kitchen tiles, fraud in the flesh, stackin' counterfeit miles
Talk big in the crowd, voice soft in the breeze, karma rooted deep, branches bout to seize
Ghost of mistakes lurking, shadow cut precise, she planted weak seeds, now I'm icy with advice
Caught up in her circle, spinning lies 'til she trip, lyrical pimp tree grew sharp with the grip

[Chorus]
Branches don't bend, they teach with the weight, smacking Lupe sense straight past the gates
Roots deep-set in her petty parade, wisdom in the swing, now she paid for charades
The slap echoes loud, a note she won’t miss, leaves fall heavy like a cursed wish
Lupe thought she ran, but the truth always sprints, the bark spoke clear, no escape from prints

[Verse]
Moonlight’s savage on her pale façade, truth slaps down harder than her paper charade
Wolves in the woods howling songs full of rage, ‘cause Lupe played games that don’t match the page
Twisting up side hustle stories like thread, now she's tangled, caught up in the words she misread
Outlines on the bark where her face left its cry, truth don’t coddle, it slaps when you lie

[Chorus]
Branches don’t bend, they carve on call, deliver Lupe’s karma, no care if she falls
Roots feed on deceit, grow tall from disgrace, lyrical justice wraps her in its embrace
Slap heard ‘round the world, her name’s tattooed in dirt, the limp in her walk now a lesson in hurt
Lessons sunlight cast, no shadows to run, Lupe’s slapdown story ain’t yet done

[Bridge]
Crooked branches curve to box her in, swaying slow melodies of sins within
The pimp tree marinated in ancient revenge, leaves writing notes she won’t comprehend
Cracks in the skin tell Lupe’s false plight, sap dripping heavy from the bark late at night
She plucked her destiny, the slap long due, now she weaves her tales, but they’ll strangle through

[Outro/Chorus]
Can’t unring the bell, the slap won’t rewind, Lupe’s shtick fading under pimp-tree's shine
