Lupe Fiasco dropped the first track called “Lightwork,” off his forthcoming mixtape Friend of the People.

In the track, which includes a sample from Ellie Goulding’s hit pop song “Lights,” Lupe takes on Occupy Wall Street, boasts about touching more souls than a dancefloor, gets at chicks who think their shit smells like perfume shops, and how others perceive him. 

Lupe Fiasco Occupies Wall Street With The Masses

“Why he so rebellious? Up-front with his realness? / They wanna be Fiasco’s, reproduce his failures / Emperor is his alias, but not Marcus Aurelius / This is more like Sparta, kick you down a well, kid / And on my last check, I copped that NSX just like Pharrell did,” Lupe spits.

MUSIC: T.I. & Pharrell Williams “Hear Ye, Hear Ye” 

“Lightwork” is the first track off his upcoming mixtape Friend of the People, which drops this Thanksgiving, and you can check it out below!
