Intro Lyrics - Food & Liquor - Lupe Fiasco

Food and liquor stores rest on every corner 

From 45th and State to the last standing Henry Horner 

J&J's, pale chicken, good finger lickin 

While they sin, gin, sin sin at Rothschild and Lynnwood Liquors 

The winos crooked stagger 

Meets the high stride of the youth searchin for the truth 

They rebel and raise hell across alleyways and in classroom settings 

They get, high off that drum bass and 20/20 rims 

They rock braids, Air Force Ones and Timbs 

They drink Hennessy, Hypnotiq and 40's 

They call they women hoes, bust downs and shorties 

They keep funeral homes in business and gunshot wards of hospitals full 

Prisons packed, bubblin over in brown sugar 

They keep empty, Westside lots crowded, hype's powdered 

The well is running dry, the days of Malcolm and Martin have ended 

Our hope has descended and off to the side 

Waiting for the reinstallment of the revolution 

Because we are dying at the cost of our own pollution 

But God has another solution, that has evolved from the hood 

I present one who turns, the Fiasco to good

A'uzu billahi min ash shaitani r rajimi

Dedicated, to my grandmother 

Peace! And much love to you 

YEAH!! And it start 

1st and, 15, proudly present 

You know what it is 

See.. I got this philosophy right 

I think the world, and everything in it 

Is made up of a mix, of two things 

You got your good, y'know, and your bad 

You got your food, and your liquor 

That's right.. Chilly Chill! 

You already know, it's a long time comin 

I give you my.. I give you my heart 

My soul, my mind my thoughts, my feelings 

My experience, nuttin more, and nuttin less 

Yes, FNF, uh-huh! So 

With no further ado...
