The song is not only expressing his love for girls, it’s also a metaphor for his love Hip-Hop. This is another example of Lupe’s Fiasco lyrical skills.

Gaining recognition through Food & Liquor, Fiasco’s popularity has grown tremendously. Much of the reason was due to his approach to rap. While he does rap about mainstream themes such as sex, money, and drugs, Fiasco also shares his concerns about the American government and politics, foreign affairs, and racism in our culture, capturing a more mature audience’s attention. Through his music, Lupe Fiasco represents the voice of Modern America by informing his listeners about the modern corrupt practices in the United States and asserting his opinions on them through his music. In his song “Bitch Bad”, Fiasco describes how the vulgar word “bitch” is used throughout American society carelessly and in ways it shouldn’t be due it's degrading denotation. His song “Strange Fruition” reiterates the message in Billie Holiday’s largely popular song “Strange Fruit” and incorporates the modern take on racism in the United States. The messages in both these songs portray the depravity in present American culture.

” sings Hall in the first verse. He’s remembering an old friend of his that may have passed, or maybe a connection that was broken or slowly faded away. He wants to see this person, and he’s asking himself why that’s such a bad thing. This is a relatable and hard-hitting line; who hasn’t thought about someone from their past and wished they could see them again?
Every man should meet that special someone that will make you feel like the most the luckiest man in the world which is what he tells the girl later in the verse. “And I see her in the streets but I can’t bring her home,” Lil’ Wayne again refers to the same two things. Since cocaine is illegal, there are many people who deal drugs on the streets. When he says that he sees her in the streets, he means that he can see people dealing cocaine in the streets making deals, and since he’s writing this farewell song, he can’t have any of the cocaine he’s being tempted by. The literary element found here is conflict can be found for he is expressing a resistance towards the drug. As the same goes, he sees the girl walking in the streets and wants to make her come, over but women don’t all work that easy. But he denies the sight of the drug, as well as the girl, when he says, “But I can’t bring her home.” The line after that, he states, “I was on her line all day, no phone Hah. No Arms & Hammer in my Tony Montana.” When Lil’ Wayne says that he was on her line all day, he is talking about when an addict does cocaine, he has to cut it into lines and snort it. This can also mean that he was in love with the girl for a long time and she never paid attention to him, kind of like being in the friend zone. In the movie “Scarface,” Tony Montana is the most popular cocaine dealer and he added this metaphor to show how big of a cocaine user he was. Many look up to him because of his brutal killings and being a big time cocaine

This song describes the point of view of one person in a romantic relationship.

The man feels abandoned in a corner and he drinks for the sadness he feels. While drinking, he tells himself I do not understand why you left me, if I know she loved me, so if you ever regret your decision he will be waiting for you. Basically, the man feels broken emotionally because the women he loved, left him for no reason. This song to me is not a dancing song, however the song is more about remembering your ex-wife, ex-girlfriend or ex husband and ex-boyfriend. For me personally, this song reminds me of drinking, the title literally means bitter shots of liquor. The way the song shares the hurt the man feels by the women that left him. I could almost picture a man sitting at a bar drinking to his ex saying, “I’m drinking because of you, you caused this”. I could picture that scene in my head because I have seen my friends in Mexico and my cousins in Mexico do
Although the danger and adrenaline an unfaithful acquaintance may feel to being unfaithful to their loved one; it can cause the other person in the relationship to feel damage physically and mentally; leaving a mess of words of feeling unworthy. Both the songs: “before he cheats” and “perfect” show a women’s perspective of what it felt like to being cheated on, However “Before He Cheats” uses her betrayal of trust to good use in contrast to “perfect’s” strategy of staying in a toxic relationship. In “before he cheats” the woman who got cheated on took her deep hatred and betrayal she had towards the situation and turned it to revenge; a dish best served cold. However in “perfect” the women was hurt
“Baby, hold me till I explode. Stop thinking, what’s so hard about this? Kiss me like it’s a lie. As if I’m your last love”.

The opening lyrics kick of the song with a punch. “Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice. I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots”. Tupac was trying to say that black is beautiful. The berry and juice metaphor was used to say that darker women are more desirable. That is something that even today most people do not agree with. Back then and now, many believe that lighter skin is beauty and dark is not. More powerful lyrics hit you in the first verse. I could no...
Reading the lyrics makes it seem like the song is a very depressing story about the writer’s life and how he is lost and does not know what to do with his life.

The singer suggests that he is a gambler and that some nights he “cashes in his bad luck”, meaning he gambles his money away, and some nights he calls it a draw, meaning he went even. The song then states, “Some Nights I wish that my lips could build a castle / Some nights ...
In the opening verse of the song, the speaker discusses the need to see her childhood home at least once more before moving on with her life. She shares with the current homeowner some of her experiences while growing up in the house. For instance, she says, “I know they say you can’t go home again, but I just had to come back one last time.” This shows that the speaker realizes that returning “home” is going to be a different experience than it was when she lived there, but she cannot resist the temptation of a final visit to the “house”. The speaker says that “Up those stairs in that little back bedroom, is where I did my homework and learned to play guitar. And I bet you didn’t know, under that live oak, my favorite dog is buried in the yard.” This indicates some of the significant memories the speaker has of her time in the house, such as honing her...
