Lonely People Lyrics - Talib Kweli

(Hook: The Beatles sample (Michelle Williams) 

All the lonely people, where do they all come from? 

All the lonely people, where do they all belong? 

I look at all the lonely people (I look at all the 

lonely people) 

I look at all the lonely people (I look at all the 

lonely people) 

I look at all the lonely people (yeah) 

I look at all the lonely people 

(Intro: Talib Kweli *over hook*) 

Yeah I like to go out to clubs 

Las Palmas, you know 

She this envy if I wanna get grimey wit' it at 

Bungalow Eight 

Opium down in Miami 

But when I walk in, I look around and I think.

(Verse 1: Talib Kweli) 

Yo, I'm headin' out, 'bout to do some flesh and now 

I know my flesh endowed with somethin' to prove 

I'm settin' out on a trip to Heaven's mile 

Yeah, I'm steppin' out in the name of love 

Who knew the Devil could slow dance? 

We have pathological romances with technological advance 

Infatuated with infatuation and 

Intellectual masturbation with premature ejaculation 

Make a baby mama's all bastardization and 

Lonely people all through the city 

They club hoppin' and they love shoppin' and they thug posturin' 

Thugs be lockin' horns with Crips on them drug blocks 

And them dollars flow right out of the 'hood 

When you tryin' to make paper out of the wood 

You know that money don't grow on trees 

For paper people change colors like leaves 

And they fall off in the mud like a filthy pig 

Makin' you and your dogs who store all call off 

That much deserved ass whippin' 

He snitchin', he twitchin', he bitchin', he all soft 

Never work with his hands 

Little kid on the block who always ran 

At all costs, gotta be in the club 

Lookin' for happiness or the meaning of love 

Then it hit him, out the blue like a vision 

All of a sudden he don't like the way he been livin' 

And wanna be forgiven 

How I know? Cuz I'm right there wit' him 

Yo, yo

All the lonely people, where do they all come from? 

(oh) 

All the lonely people, where do they all belong? (oh) 

I look at all the lonely people (I look at all the 

lonely people) 

I look at all the lonely people (oh I look at all) 

(Verse 2: Talib Kweli) 

Tattoos tell 'em who you are 

Plastics which you recruited tie the guy 

Uh, lasers to remove the scar 

And then you are, you a supastar, supastar 

It's your birthday and you in the club 

Talkin' "Holla back" and "Nigga what" 

So much cleavage and asscrack 

If pussy were a stock it would plummet on the Nasdaq 

Blank stares like nobody care 

In a room so exclusive nobody there 

But really, truth is that nobody there 

Cuz it's feelings inside that nobody share 

I want God to smile on me 

But see, fame is a drug and you wild on E 

Celebrities take a? like Christmas trees 

Got complex like they want a Christmas Eve 

Sing a song to yourself and you stand alone 

Get nominated for a gold gramophone 

Walk the red carpet, left your man at home 

Security snatchin' people camera phones 

You got rose gold yellow bottles, pink Cashmere 

So ahead of the trend, that's so last year 

Last month, last day, last hour, last minute 

Your pursuit of crew is so passionate 

? the cash in it, laugh in his face 

If it's def or anybody who don't stay in his place 

So popular can't go no where, folks stoppin' ya 

Might want to check a thermometer 

When you go to a movie heat rises 

Surrounded by people still lonely, that's why you need disguises 

Probably 

(Hook: The Beatles sample (Michelle Williams) 

All the lonely people, where do they all come from? 

All the lonely people, where do they all belong? 

I look at all the lonely people (I look at all the 

lonely people) 

I look at all the lonely people (yeah)

All the lonely people, where do they all come from? 

All the lonely people, where do they all belong?
