Lupe Fiasco: Intruder Alert lyrics
Verse 1
She said there was no love in her heart
Cause one day a rapist attacked her a broke that all apart
She said there was no way to fix it or to cover her scars
Then one day a guy came along she probably couldn\'t help but start
He was sincere made her believe it was safe for her to trust again
Before long she was cool with giving hugs to him
Knew that it was right cause something was wrong
The alarms in her mind didn\'t tell her, he didn\'t belong
(THERE WAS NO)
Chorus
Intruder
Intruder
Intruder
Intruder
Alert
Alert
Alert
Alert
(Repeat 2X\'s)
Verse 2
He said nobodyelse ever loved him
That\'s why he gets high enough to go touch the heavens above him
Vividly remember every pipe every needle that stuck him
Every alley he ever slept in
Every purse he every snuck in
Every level of hell he\'s been to and the one that he\'s stuck in
The one he can\'t escape even though its of his own construction
Maybe you can\'t relate, Maybe your one of those who just doesn\'t
Maybe he doesn\'t care loves to allow these demons to come in
(WITH NO)
Chorus
Intruder
Intruder
Intruder
Intruder
Alert
Alert
Alert
Alert
(Repeat 2X\'s)
Verse 3
Famine strike in his home
landing no social standing
In the economic pecking order
Emergency relief
Distribution systems is in disorder
He\'s checking water making sure
It\'s safe enough for his
Daughter to float across in
The boat he built
Hopefully strong enough to support
Prayin border patrols
Don\'t catch her
And process and deport her
Before she reach the shore
Of the land of the free
Where they feed u
Treat u like equals
Decieve you
Stamp u
And call you illegal
(AND AS AN)
Chorus
Intruder
Intruder
Intruder
Intruder
Alert
Alert
Alert
Alert
(Repeat 2X\'s)
There\'s someone here but it\'s not me
How could this be?
I locked my door
And my army\'s on my shore
And my rockets in my sky
I\'m so full of fire
I built my wall so high (so high)
So wide (so wide)
Intruder
(Repeated Until Song Fades Out)
