Form Follows Function Lyrics

[Intro]
I'mma just go... And then we'll figure it out from there
They say form follows function
And if you just function properly things will form themselves
Yeah, that's kind of what it is
So on that note... America's most

[Verse 1]
First off gotta send shout outs to my niggas
Then shout outs to my inner demon that be creepin' around my temple

Ready to set me off like Vivica or make me cross like a crucifix
Or the legs on a Buddhist sitter deep in thought

Thinking as deep as the sea of salt
And they sink in the same sea that we walk
Not that we Jesus, we just don't wait until it thaws

But you can hold my hand like applause, pause
With no homophobia involved
Now if I would've said that you can hold my balls like VFW Halls
That would've been the call, but naw

You can't see in ours, but we can see in yours
You can't see in ours cause ours is Kingdom Hall


Yeah, just like that, we just let it roll, you know?
Yeah, and check it, check it

[Verse 2]
So when that pond thaws and it's no longer Gretzky
That's when we jetski

I gotta catch up to myself, I kind of left me
Are the windows still blocked up? Let's see
Maybe see something we couldn't view before
Been in the stu all day cooking food for thought
Now out the soup du jour for you and yours
Might find sushi for your soul, we call that moving raw
Lions won't cross the line, cougars won't move a paw
Chickens won't cross the road, dogs won't roof at all
Always had flow, just added a front door, roof, and walls
Hotter than the fire that into which Koopa falls
But that's only if you super, dawg

Sicker than when you use your dog to do assaults
You can never really tell just who's the fraud
Truth might still be alive like true and false
That's why I never really trust unless it's Lu endorsed
Sponsored by me and of course you know who enforced

Now that's three mis, like you warming up your vocal chords
Add a fourth if your vocals hoarse
Like Mister Ed

Get out of pocket have a horse's head in your bed
Now that's what I call a good night's rest

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

“Form follows function” was the slogan of the great Chicago School architect Louis Sullivan, whose masterpieces (Flatiron, Carson Pirie Scott) inaugurated the modernist style in architecture

Lupe murders this track filled with top notch imagery, using concepts like religion or drugs (only one mentioned was weed) as metaphors in the verses. This is where Lupe really flexes hard.
