Walk In My Shoes

[Produced by Chucky Thompson]

[Intro]

Ooooooh

[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]

Re-Re-Reintroducing the meanest, cleanest, distinguished genuine gentleman

Linguist from the Westside of Venus homey, FNF leaguing league of his own

Need to be beefin' it's on, and I'm alone, he ain't know, kept on sleepin'

They want my secret to be cut it up open touch the components

Critique keep it, release it then call the police on me, they want our energy drained

Me and my friend, miss such a diva isn't she? Who be Emily King

Uh-uh-uh-uh...

[Verse 2: Emily King]

I just wanna live my life

Cause I wanna, and I need to

So don't be tryna steal my light

Cause you don't know me, don't pretend to

I've been busy on my grind, just like you, I've been trying

I've even shed a tear or two

I swear to you

I ain't lying

[Hook]

Sometimes I feel the world is after me, tryna, get to me, tryna, stop what I do

Cause I'm the only one that looks out for me, can be me and walk in my shoes

Every day there's somethin' that's new to me

I just gotta breathe, I don't know about you

But I'm the only one that looks out for me

Can be me, and...

Walk in my shoes

[Verse 3: Emily King]

It ain't easy being Emily, no

But I don't wanna change my name, cause I ain't got to, I don't need to

So Imma do what I do, cause I ain't gotta live for you

But Imma keep up with mine, keep on striving and surviving

[Repeat Hook]

[Verse 4: Lupe Fiasco]

And, and.. St-St-Steadily shinin' like every diamond, never mind is mine

Never mind you mine shouldn't mind a hater hater, push on space invader stay away from the arcade-r

Playa's who clockin' like Flava Flava but stay the same

No matter how famous the paper or the status the greatest gave us

They tryna drive us insane, straighter sedate us, but we escapers like David Blaine got us confused

Need to getcha data straight, can't walk in our shoes

[Bridge: Emily King]

See everybody's got their own problems that they're going through

I take it day by day, it's only thing that I can do

So I live for me as you live for you

But you can't be me unless you walk in my shoes

[Hook]

Walk walk, walk walk, walk, walk, walk in my shoes

Walk walk, walk walk, walk walk,  walk in my shoes

You gon' do you, and Imma do me

Walk walk, walk walk, walk, walk, walk in my shoes

Walk walk, walk walk, walk walk,  walk in my shoes

You gon' do you, and Imma do me
