Lupe Fiasco - Tranquillo Lyrics
[Lupe Fiasco:]
Peace
No material possessions shall cloud my judgement
As I reach, in an ethereal direction to provide my substance
Love is not found but resides insides me, I manifest this
I will replace what I take and have tranquility as my breakfast
Shed a new light on a new path
I will gain rhythm and lose wrath
Attain wisdom and refuse graph
And build upon what I built on
And wisely regulate time I do have
'Cause what is defeat?
But just the evidence of my haste
Lack of preparedness, in my waste
So I wait...
Use natural codes of conduct to remove the schism when the rules missing
I will pursue felicity, find value in simplicity
Altruism and empathy will be the first thing extended to my enemy
Clarity will be the trademark of my friendships
Just invest in my business
And appreciative of the rarity of my existence
'Cause I got chillin' by the million
Tranquillo by the kilo, nigga, nigga
And I ain't talkin' 'bout them drugs
I'm talkin' 'bout that love
For myself and all my niggas
All my bitches and all my thugs, what's up?
'Cause I got chillin' by the million
Tranquillo by the kilo, nigga, nigga
And I got kilos by the speedboat
And I ain't talkin' 'bout that work
I'm talkin' 'bout that worth
Of myself and all my niggas
Every diamond came out the dirt, nigga
I got bitches on bitches
All my dreams and my visions
I remember me fishin' out of canals in the trenches
Now a nigga be flossy
Rolls Royce lookin' glossy
Quick to put down a demo to get these haters up off me
I like to smoke to myself
I just try to improve
Let my son hold my strap while I swim laps in the pool
Told my daughter the rules which we all must abide
Your daddy was far from perfect, things we did to survive
I just wanted to fly, they always lookin' down on us
School district full of killers, I mean these niggas ferocious
Only violence and drugs, there was nothin' for us
All I had was this music, I couldn't afford to do much
[Lupe Fiasco:]
'Cause I got chillin' by the million
Tranquillo by the kilo, nigga, nigga
And I got kilos by the speedboat
And I ain't talkin' 'bout them drugs
I'm talkin' 'bout that love
For myself and all my niggas
All my bitches and all my thugs, what's up?
'Cause I got chillin' by the million
Tranquillo by the kilo, nigga, nigga
And I got kilos by the speedboat
And I ain't talkin' 'bout that work
I'm talkin' 'bout that worth
Of myself and all my niggas
Every diamond came out the dirt, nigga
[Big K.R.I.T.:]
Young nigga say ball
'Cause he ain't really livin' life 'less he's down to roll the dice
Put it all on the line for a couple dollars
And a bad bitch that only think about him if he call
Is it really worth the time and the effort?
Chasin' wood grain and the leather
Puttin' pressure on the pedal, I don't want the devil
Hopin' he fall
Feed him to his nonsense, mothafuck a contract
You don't need a handout, they gon' bring the bands out
Choppas make 'em stand down, good lord
But you don't wanna be another nigga
Chase the figures that never really add up
White folk pass your face
Dyin' in the grass 'cause they wouldn't call the law
'Cause you're hooded, Black and they think you're sellin' crack
Maybe so, you don't give a fuck in a rut, nigga
'Til those in the street got you stuck, nigga, what, nigga?
Buck, buck, nigga
Buried your partner just the other day knowin' he was too young
Had a tool, tryna roll on the folk
Let it go on the folk
But he wasn't down to shoot one
Though the time dead and gone
Is YOLO what we on?
I heard different, it's never too late to listen
And be reborn
Young nigga, young nigga, young nigga
Go be reborn
Peace and understanding is what you should be on
[Lupe Fiasco:]
'Cause I got chillin' by the million
Tranquillo by the kilo, nigga, nigga
And I got kilos by the speedboat
And I ain't talkin' 'bout them drugs
I'm talkin' 'bout that love
For myself and all my niggas
All my bitches and all my thugs, what's up?
'Cause I got chillin' by the million
Tranquillo by the kilo, nigga, nigga
And I got kilos by the speedboat
And I ain't talkin' 'bout that work
I'm talkin' 'bout that worth
Of myself and all my niggas
Every diamond came out the dirt, nigga

Lupe Fiasco Tranquillo Comments
Peace and Understanding is what you should be on🙏🙏🙏
Three of my favourite MC's on the same track 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🙌🙌🙌
KRIT killed it but LUPE's hook made this song. Ross, a boss as always.
Still here in 2019,,,this track is EVERYTHING!!!!!
Lupe and KRIT killed it, but why did officer ricky have to be in this? His part was so boring and unnecessary as all his verses are, he literally has the same flow in every song.
And K.R.I.T.
You bad lupe
Lupe's verse in this track inspired me to continue my journey of accomplishing my goal
Lupe dope
Krit dope
Ross...
*no hope*
LUPE 2019
Lupe really got renegaded by krit. Im deedddd
PLEASE PRAY iN 💜JESus CHRiSt HOLY SPiRit NAME uPON 💜GOD tHE FAtHER i PRAY tO tHE 💜HOLY SPiRit tHAT you PLEASE MAKE A fiRM DONAtiON tO tHE HOLY iSRAEL MiLitARY
The way KRIT dissects this beat is unfair
Still in the library
Krit dope as fuck. Salty I caught on so late but definitely glad I i caught on.
Most truthful song in a long time from anybody other than Jada Kiss with WHY
Lupe is my favorite Chi Rapper of all time!
BECOME A DiSCiPLE iN ACCORDANCE tO tHE HOLY BiBLE SCRiPtURES
tHE POWER OF tHE HOLY SPiRit REMAiNS ViSiBiLE
song underrated as fuck
Krit killed it
Vibe beat. Lofi downtempo I liked it.
My favorite Fiasco verse ever. 😎
Big sounds just like TI
Dafuq was Ross on this for? I actually like Ross but wtf...waste of a verse.
No idea why everyone is hatin on Ross' verse. Prob his dopest verse since Port of Miami.

Peace
No material possessions shall cloud my judgement
As I reach, in an ethereal direction to provide my substance
Love is not found but resides insides me, I manifest this
I will respect myself and wear serenity as my necklace
I will replace what I take and have tranquility as my breakfast
Shed a new light on a new path
I will gain rhythm and lose wrath
Attain wisdom and refuse graph
And build upon what I built on
And wisely regulate time I do have
'Cause what is defeat?
But just the evidence of my haste
Lack of preparedness, in my waste
So I wait...
Surround myself with nutrition, wholesomeness and true livin'
Use natural codes of conduct to remove the schism when the rules missing
I will pursue felicity, find value in simplicity
Altruism and empathy will be the first thing extended to my enemy
Clarity will be the trademark of my friendships
Just invest in my business
And appreciative of the rarity of my existence
'Cause I got chillin' by the million
Tranquillo by the kilo, nigga, nigga
And I got kilos by the speedboat
And I ain't talkin' 'bout them drugs
I'm talkin' 'bout that love
For myself and all my niggas
All my bitches and all my thugs, what's up?
'Cause I got chillin' by the million
Tranquillo by the kilo, nigga, nigga
And I got kilos by the speedboat
And I ain't talkin' 'bout that work
I'm talkin' 'bout that worth
Of myself and all my niggas

KRIT AND LUPE
BOTH MISSISSIPPI💪💪
Love this Organic Dude Real Faxxx 🎯...
From Jersey Salute
"Every Diamond Came Out The Dirt" Facts
That first verse speaks to me
Why rick ross on this track???
TRANQUILO 👁👌
Why's everyone hating on Rozay? I don't get it.
All your albums are fire. Thankyou for your inspiration. Your music is fuel that transports us to a destination of clarity. Where we can dream reflect, and manifest, the best. Thankyou your beautiful!
Gnostic Aquarius lupe is ahead of his time
pagoLapki
Lupe murdered this and tells you how to live life in 1 verse... amazing.
Seems like Ross Da Boss out of his element here he jus an employee on this track🤔😝😂
"Food and Liquor" & "DROGAS Light" are the only projects I have by Lupe. Planning on buying the rest when I get the chance.
Terry Dow Jr. Get "the cool. Its a classic
Lupe Fiasco And Big K.R.I.T Are My Favorites Rappers But Let's Leave Rick Ross Out Of The Picture
Ross bars sus af.u gon let ur son continue the foolishness!
Positive vibrations
Assenayo
This song just uplifts you.
Big K.R.I.T. And Lupe need that collaboration album for sure. Both are my Favorite artist and Dope!!!
Dopeness
Young Marcus Aurelius
Lupe is kuze!
That 1st verse though
I love Lupe and Krit and now have a new appreciation for Rick Ross everyone gave a different view of our struggle
came cause of lupe, replaying all the time cause of krit
Everybody always seems to forget about Lupe but he top 10 straight up
B.O.B would've been better on this track than Rick Ross
The treble makes up for that lame ass Rick ross verse. Too bad you can't really hear it without headphones
No material possession shall clout my judgement 💯
Love this song to death but I really feel Rick Ross should've been on another track cuz his verse throws off the whole song imo.
PAC -pissed
Hate. Spred love
great projects have this thing that once you hear even an intro ya know .. and the first track of made in the USA was drogras and instantly i was hooked the dopamine hit . This joint is hard too
"young nigga, young nigga, young nigga go be reborn!"
✊🏾💯
But BIG KIRT was on point; that's cuz he a VET!!!!
I get the message; but rating 3; feels like its all over the place & Rick Ross was not needed
I think the point of RR and Krit on this track is what Lupe does a lot on his albums..balance or polarization. In this case 1. Lupe = Conscious or spiritual 2. RR =Material or Fleshly 3. KRIT=BOTH It represents what Hip-Hop is if you think about it. IDK..just what I felt. Esp if you listen to each of their music.
geez KRIZZLE goes HAMM!!!
Only if the whole album sounded like this
I used to be the biggest Lupe fan man - I understand his fans are loyal - but lately I've felt he hasn't . These songs have gone garbage - even moreso - hes brought more devil-like to the screen/sound since lasers .
Songs are garbage man .
Lupe is so underrated when it comes to the greatest we always count sales but this man's poetry is one of the GREATEST of all time he keeps it trap but at the same time as lyrical as ever wow
KRIT SO MFING SLEPT ON!!!!!!!!!! WHY?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?! SOMEONE TELL ME WHY
Lupe and KRIT killed it lyrically as always, Ross surprised me a lot, he floated over this beat
I wish this was just Lupe, everybody else suck
candy girlll na he just flows so effortlessly
KING KRIT!!!!
DOPE verse by lupe But rick ross's was terrible, so bad when ever i play this i have to skip it, totally ruins the purity of the first, Not sure what lupe was trying to do here, trying to appeal to the other scene?
Ross was not needed... still my nigga tho. #MMGforlife.
Lupe did some to the hook
I wish lupe made DNA instead of kendrick
nevermind
I want a Lupe and Cudi feat.
lupe always drops food for thought
This beat is so whack I feel sorry for my speakers... :/
Why is Ross on this when you just skip past his verse...
Rick Ross gets down
had to come back to this song to make sure...its still king krit
is that the goddamn will of fire?
Los inglobernables de japon brought me here.
krit bodied this shit
This Album didn't let me down is so much bright full too many dope lines ... Shout out for Lupe for not letting the darkness swallow him.
Ross n KRIT?! Wtf?!
Should have left Ricky Ross outta this one, and Lupe n K.R.I.T. could have gone back n fourth for a 10 min track
ross made it wack to me smh.. he couldn't bring it on this
Krit is always the fire on the track
This is amazing. Hater.
Lupe an krit mix tape need to be in the makings like truly
KRIT brought me here
🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
smooth ass track
Here for my boy Big Krit
Krit verse too real!!!
Krizzle came for Ross neck on this one. Bihh, be humble💪💪💪🙌
Whoa.... Krit Epic flow
"brick weed" huh
fucking yes
