"And you gotta respect the position in which your playing,
Never let your heart reflect the conditions in which its stained,
Even if its dark, and the temperature is the same as winters in the Ukraine,
your appendages is in chains.
Have forgiveness from the start,
keep maliciousness restrained.
Be smart,
never indiscriminate in your aim
cause its innocent witnesses oblivious to the things to come,
the ones the hypnotists keep entertained.
Have some resilience in your frames
Stay resistant and committed to what your saying."
— Lupe fiasco
