Tranquilo Lyrics - Lupe Fiasco

[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco] 

Peace 

No material possessions shall cloud my judgement 

As I reach, in an ethereal direction to provide my substance 

Love is not found but resides insides me, I manifest this 

I will respect myself and wear serenity as my necklace 

I will replace what I take and have tranquility as my breakfast 

Shed a new light on a new path 

I will gain rhythm and lose wrath 

Attain wisdom and refuse graph 

And build upon what I built on 

And wisely regulate time I do have 

'Cause what is defeat? 

But just the evidence of my haste 

Lack of preparedness, in my waste 

So I wait... 

Surround myself with nutrition, wholesomeness and true livin' 

Use natural codes of conduct to remove the schism when the rules missing 

I will pursue felicity, find value in simplicity 

Altruism and empathy will be the first thing extended to my enemy 

Clarity will be the trademark of my friendships 

Just invest in my business 

And appreciative of the rarity of my existence

[Hook: Lupe Fiasco] 

'Cause I got chillin' by the million 

Tranquilo by the kilo, nigga, nigga 

And I got kilos by the speedboat 

And I ain't talkin' 'bout them drugs 

I'm talkin' 'bout that love 

For myself and all my niggas 

All my bitches and all my thugs, what's up? 

'Cause I got chillin' by the million 

Tranquilo by the kilo, nigga, nigga 

And I got kilos by the speedboat 

And I ain't talkin' 'bout that work 

I'm talkin' 'bout that worth 

Of myself and all my niggas 

Every diamond came out the dirt, nigga

[Verse 2: Rick Ross] 

I got bitches on bitches 

All my dreams and my visions 

I remember me fishin' out of canals in the trenches 

Now a nigga be flossy 

Rolls Royce lookin' glossy 

Quick to put down a demo to get these haters up off me 

I like to smoke to myself 

I just try to improve 

Let my son hold my strap while I swim laps in the pool 

Told my daughter the rules which we all must abide 

Your daddy was far from perfect, things we did to survive 

I just wanted to fly, they always lookin' down on us 

School district full of killers, I mean these niggas ferocious 

Only violence and drugs, there was nothin' for us 

All I had was this music, I couldn't afford to do much 

[Hook: Lupe Fiasco] 

'Cause I got chillin' by the million 

Tranquilo by the kilo, nigga, nigga 

And I got kilos by the speedboat 

And I ain't talkin' 'bout them drugs 

I'm talkin' 'bout that love 

For myself and all my niggas 

All my bitches and all my thugs, what's up? 

'Cause I got chillin' by the million 

Tranquilo by the kilo, nigga, nigga 

And I got kilos by the speedboat 

And I ain't talkin' 'bout that work 

I'm talkin' 'bout that worth 

Of myself and all my niggas 

Every diamond came out the dirt, nigga 

[Verse 3: Big K.R.I.T.] 

Young nigga say... ball 

'Cause he ain't really livin' life 'less he's down to roll the dice 

Put it all on the line for a couple dollars 

And a bad bitch that only think about him if he... call 

Is it really worth the time and the effort? 

Chasin' wood grain and the leather 

Puttin' pressure on the pedal, I don't want the devil 

Hopin' he fall 

Feed him to his nonsense, mothafuck a contract 

You don't need a handout, they gon' bring the bands out 

Choppas make 'em stand down, good lord 

But you don't wanna be another nigga 

Chase the figures that never really add up 

White folk pass your face 

Dyin' in the grass 'cause they wouldn't call the.... law 

'Cause you're hooded, Black and they think you're sellin' crack 

Maybe so, you don't give a fuck in a rut, nigga 

'Til those in the street got you stuck, nigga, what, nigga? 

Buck, buck, nigga 

Buried your partner just the other day knowin' he was too young 

Had a tool, tryna roll on the folk 

Let it go on the folk 

But he wasn't down to shoot one 

Though the time dead and gone 

Is YOLO what we on? 

I heard different, it's never too late to listen 

And be reborn 

Young nigga, young nigga, young nigga 

Go be reborn 

Peace and understanding is what you should be on 

[Hook: Lupe Fiasco] 

'Cause I got chillin' by the million 

Tranquilo by the kilo, nigga, nigga 

And I got kilos by the speedboat 

And I ain't talkin' 'bout them drugs 

I'm talkin' 'bout that love 

For myself and all my niggas 

All my bitches and all my thugs, what's up? 

'Cause I got chillin' by the million 

Tranquilo by the kilo, nigga, nigga 

And I got kilos by the speedboat 

And I ain't talkin' 'bout that work 

I'm talkin' 'bout that worth 

Of myself and all my niggas 

Every diamond came out the dirt, nigga
