Lupe Fiasco's Internet Marketing Secret
Recently, it occurred to me the exact same metaphor applies to internet marketers who're still struggling... either from their own gullibility or they can't accept the fact that their success will NOT be handed to them in ANY product out there.
I know everyone's got their 2c about why people make it and some don't, but I thought this would be a more fun way to put it
He just sits, and watches the people in the boxes Everything he sees he absorbs and adopts it Heeeeee mimics and he mocks it Really hates the box but he can't remember how to stop, it Uhh, so he continues to watch it Hoping that it'll give him something that he can box with Or how the locksmith, see the box as, locked in the box Ain't got the combination to unlock, it That's why he watch-es, scared to look away Cause at that moment, it might show him What to take off the locks with So he chained himself to the box, took a lock and then he locked it Swallowed the combination and then forgot, it As the doctors jot it all down, with they pens and pencils The same ones that took away his voice And just left this instrumental, like that [Chorus: Josh Matranga + (Lupe)] And he never lies (he never lies, he never lies, uhh) And he never lies (uhh, he never lies, he never lies, no) And he never lies (he never lies) Cause he never said anything at all [Lupe Fiasco] He just sits, and listens to the people in the boxes Everything he hears he absorbs and adopts it Anything not coming out the box he blocks it See he loves to box and hope they never stop it Anything the box tell him to do, he does it Anything it tell him to get, he shops and he cops it He protects the box, locks it in a box when he goes to sleep, but he never sleeps Cause he stays up to watch it, scared to look away Cause at that moment, it might get stolen And that's the last of the boxes So he chained himself to the box, took a lock and then he locked it Swallowed the combination and then forgot, it As the doctors jot it all down, with they pens and pencils The same ones that took away his voice And just left this instrumental, like that [Chorus] [Lupe Fiasco] (Anything at all..) He never lies Uhh, and you can't tell me just who you are You buy new clothes just to hide those scars You built that roof just to hide those stars Now you can't take it back to the start And you can't tell me just who you are You buy new clothes just to hide those scars You built that roof just to hide those stars Now you can't take it back to the start [Chorus] [Lupe Fiasco] (Anything at all.. anything at all..) Uhh, and you can't tell me just who you are You buy new clothes just to hide those scars You built that roof just to hide those stars Now you can't take it back to the start And you can't tell me just who you are You buy new clothes just to hide those scars You built that roof just to hide those stars Now you can't take it back to the start |
I'd recommend all Lupe's music BTW
