about

Black Smith gives his own interpretation of Lupe Fiasco's fast-paced, Travis Barker-assisted offering "Joaquin Phoenix Facebook Flow," off Lu's heavily-anticipated mixtape "Friend of the People: I Fight Evil."

lyrics

[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
Welcome to my whirlwind, turn like Tilt-A-Whirls
I be throwing up my set, yes, earlin' up the world and
Going out, we goin in', say "hello" to my girlfriend
Vomiting and conquering, that C-Class is a "girl Benz"
My class is overseas, I be on "all around the world" rims
Women's international, my will is like my girl then
Goin' in is goin' wild, goin' in is goin' strong
Going for the gold, some world-class goin' in is goin' on
I can do this all day, I ain't got it all, 'kay
They all say I'm one wall short of a whole hallway
One Halls short to keep from coughing all in y'all face
Man, I'm so appalled, I can keep them all safe
I can really ball and put titties all in y'all face
That was Robert Paulson, and that deserves a pausin'
So that's Blart, Pierce, and all that's missing is a bearer
For the coffin that is needed for this beat when I'm done talkin'
Balling in the morning, this feel like my callin'
This the new bitches brew, fall off in my cauldron
Lupe's going crazy! Flow is going almonds
We going back to goin' in, you gonna need a Garmin
Then go and get a car to put your Garmin and my broad in
Destination everywhere, reputation everywhere
Music drop, music stop, one man take up every chair
I know that that ain't very fair how one man take up everywhere
But it ain't for long though, it'll be some closure
Or maybe I'll be everywhere after I'm all over
Say goodbye then start the show, fall on off then start to blow
Acting like I'm rapping, it's that Joaquin Phoenix Facebook flow
Flow is in the microwave, call it Michael Tyson flow
Killing is a dirty job: Michael Myers, Michael Rowe
Bring it back like Michael Fox, see how far them Michaels go
I feel like I'm Michael Crichton writin' with a microphone
I ain't saying you should die but you should leave your life alone
Maybe borrow one of mine, fast life, life at home
Life is like a box of chocolates, pockets full of Toblerones
Pocket full of wallets so what continent we shopping on?


[Hook - Lil Ronnie]
I'm killin', I'm killin', I'm killin' this beat (x4) (Yeah)
Don't you hear it screamin'?
This that Joaquin Phoenix, nigga, this that Joaquin Phoenix
This that Joaquin Phoenix, nigga, this that Joaquin Phoenix
(Don't you hear it screamin'?)
On that Joaquin Phoenix, nigga, this that Joaquin Phoenix
On that Joaquin Phoenix, nigga, on that Joaquin Phoenix


[Verse 2 - Black Smith]
Excuse me, Lupe! (Huh?) This here is your biggest fan
Now don't get all that twisted-- I'm two letters from your biggest stan
And please don't misconstrue that into somethin' else disparaging
Consider it a toast to you I'm helpin' further spread your jam
Consider it a testament, this new cat's in your regiment
The game here has been misinformed; we carry little weapons, bitch
Child rebel soldier and I'm still this planet's immigrant
Demigod without his props, man that shit is some sacrilege
Payin' homage to Allah, Christ, and Yahweh-- that's my heritage
And of course the Lil Based One's in the kitchen of my residence
Cookin' up a meal for Satan, but since the Devil's such a pest
I'm convincin' B to fill his soup with an extra doe of poisoning
You gon' need a Webster for this audible conspiracy
'Cause "Chef" is my true middle name, my rhymes are a real delicacy
They even call it "Super Coldplay Expert Lyricality"
Peace and much love to my KanyeToThe family!
Married to the melody, and damn, she is a dime piece
Some say I'm such a Looney Tune, let Warner Brothers sign me
'Cause I ball so hard that all these motherfuckers wanna fine me
But I'm Daffy's second cousin, tell Elmer Fudd he'll never find me
Waldo Emerson and Wasalu are the types I find inspiring
To not give up, no matter what-- similar to Wile E.
A marathon runner on a road you niggas would find trifling
I'm Bogartin' the beat, stole the shine from the likes of Cagneyyy
And I'mma keep on my Bacall till Dick Tracy body bags me
Then I'll resurrect like Common Sense-- with passion so divinely
That you won't have no other option BUT to enshrine me
And then of course Saint Peter won't have no problem with co-signing me
Kreative Tendencies in full effect, the Black Smith in my own field
Tell Doo-Bay to keep his production up and wage war on the phonies' guild
Publish or Perish is here to stay and this game is now a battlefield
Collect our L-A-S-E-Rs and brand these niggas with the kings' seals
A couple dope boys reassured me I was kinda like a big deal
So I drop this like it's hot, dogg, and let the buzz and bees build
Ca-ca-career on stilts, Braveheart: no kilt
You can hear it screaming "freedom" as the beat get killed!


[Hook: Lil Ronnie]
I'm killin', I'm killin', I'm killin' this beat (x4) (Uh-huh)
Don't you hear it screamin'?
This that Joaquin Phoenix, nigga, this that Joaquin Phoenix
This that Joaquin Phoenix, nigga, this that Joaquin Phoenix
(Don't you hear it screamin'?)
On that Joaquin Phoenix, nigga, this that Joaquin Phoenix
Chyea, Chyea, motherfucking genius
