    Do you know why Jill Scott is underated. It's because no one seems to recognize and appreciate her unique vocal agility. Which is her uncanny ability to seemlessly transition from angelic vocal expression to the powerful execution of strong dynamic range. In my personal opinion she has achieved mastery over this skill.

    Lupe is one of the greatest ever. This song is going over 99% people's
    heads... First half of the 1st verse he's talking about the industry
    (the robot) and how he has to keep them happy or they will drop him
    since he can't have success without them. In the 2nd part he's talking
    about how society is constructed while comparing each section to a body.
    At the bottom are prostitutes, crime & police and at the face of
    society are the entertainers (him self).
    2nd verse is a continuation of the first half of the 1st verse and states what
    entertainers are doing to keep the industry (robot) happy (promoting
    evil by making drugs, alcohol, guns & sex cool). What entertainers
    are showing you is evil (fire) and fake (smoke machines and simulated
    rain) but is at the same time done in a way that's not harsh enough to
    upset the masses. The sleeping (ignorant) baby (you) is being influenced
    by him (the entertainer) and his robot (the industry) as they grow up.
    He finishes the verse by saying he turned his back on promoting these
    things and draws parallels to television which also influenced (raised)
    him & us.

    Daydream
    I fell asleep amid the flowers
    For a couple of hours
    On a beautiful day
    Daydream
    I dream of you amid the flowers
    For a couple of hours
    Such a beautiful day
    [Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
    As I spy from behind my giant robot's eyes
    I keep him happy 'cause I might fall out if he cries
    Scared of heights, so I might pass out if he flies
    Keep him on autopilot 'cause I can't drive
    Room enough for one, I tell my homies they can't ride
    Unless they sitting on the shoulders, but that's way too high
    Let's try not to step on the children
    The news cameras filming this walking project building
    Now there's hoes selling holes like right around the toes
    And the crackheads beg at about the lower leg
    There's crooked police that's stationed at the knees
    And they do drive-bys like up and down the thighs
    And there's a car chase going on at the waist
    Keep a vest on my chest, I'm sitting in my room
    As I'm looking out the face, something to write about
    I still got some damage from fighting the White House

    For a couple of hours
    Such a beautiful day
    [Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]
    Now come on everybody, let's make cocaine cool
    We need a few more half-naked women up in the pool
    And hold this MAC-10 that's all covered in jewels
    And can you please put your titties closer to the 22s?
    And where's the champagne? We need champagne
    Now look as hard as you can with this blunt in your hand
    And now hold up your chain, slow-motion through the flames
    Now cue the smoke machines and the simulated rain
    But not too loud cause the baby's sleeping
    I wonder if it knows what the world is keeping
    Up both sleeves while he lay there dreaming
    Me and my robot tip-toe 'round, creeping
    I had to turn my back on what got you paid
    I couldn't see, had the hood on me like Abu Ghraib
    But I'd like to thank the streets that drove me crazy
    And all the televisions out there that raised me
    I was
