Lupe first called it never lies then he put it on Madden 07 as Never Lies. But, peiple started calling it instrumental and now it's better known as the instrumental
i just looked it up and it says that the track is titled "The Instrumental" on the album i havn't found it referred to as Never lies on anywhere but youtube
Kick push is a narrative song. It's not about fancy intricate raps. You can't judge songs being better or worst because it's bias'd on the fact that "you" are rating it.
the song is called The Instrumental. which is on his first album Food & Liquor. look up "the instrumental", its got more views and its on wikipedia, and on the album. But, keep this video for ppl who are just new to Lupe. to people new to Lupe Fiasco...search: Kick Push. its sick..
LOL dude the album is Food And Liquor. BTW, u said the name of the song is Instrumental, also calling the album Instrumental. LOL WOW ITS Never Lies you dumbass

you may not agree but diss song means:
to me this relates to god,devil,the world,bible, and jesus....if yu kno the
bible yu may understand....but wen he says it never lies he is relatin to the bible...the ppl in the boxes...is the people..and god watches and absorbs and adopts it..god hates how the world had it became after adam & eve at from the tree...h watches hopin to tell him how to fix it wit out destroyin the world.scared to look away cuZ at dat moment it may tell him how to fix it.
No offense but that is the WORST song interpretation ever (Lupe isn't even christian he's Muslim)! This song has nothing whatsoever to do with hypochristianity.
The people in the boxes are on t.v... it's about lonliness and isolation and losing your ability to think for yoursel and buying into pop culture.
"He just sits, and watches the people in the boxes. Everything he sees he absorbs and adopts it. He mimics and he mocks it. Really hates the box but he can't remember how to stop it so he continues to watch it... scared to look away 'cause at that moment it might show him what to take off the locks with. So he chained hisself to the box, took a lock and then he locked it. Swallowed the combination and then forgot, it..."
And he never lies 'cause he never said anything at all.. He just sits, and listens to the people in the boxes. Everything he hears he absorbs and adopts it. Anything not comin out the box he blocks it.. Anything the box tell him to do, he does it. Anything it tell him to get, he shops and he cops it...
You buy new clothes just to hide those scars. You built that roof just to hide those stars. Now you can't take it back to the start"
jaiirock - he's afraid to look away from the box because he's afraid to remove himself from his protective isolation like the main character in Pink Floyd's The Wall album who is afraid to "tear down the wall" that he had spent years building around himself.. hope that helped.
This ones going to sound different but i think its that its about a boy whos dad left him when he was young.
He hate and watchs the box which i think he is watching other boys and girls who have a dad and he swallows and forget the code for the box because he can't understand why.
I know this sounds a bit silly but thats what I think...
"He just sits, and listens to the people in the boxes
Everything he hears, he absorbs and adopts it
Anything not comin out the box he blocks it
See he loves the box and hope they never stop it
Anything the box tell him to do, he does it
Anything it tell him to get, he shops and he cops it"
Obviously hes talking about the TV and how people watch the media and believe everything they see and hear, its as if people can't think for themselves and the TV dictates what they think.
Okay, listen dude...Lupe has a different style than Nas does. Nas is a street rapper, but Lupe is a very deep thinker with words that will blow your mind...He doesn't rap about the typical money,cars, and hoes ya dig? He doesn't follow the mainstream path so that's why he's so diverse in his style.
If you don't like it, then you don't appreciate what good Hip Hop is.
..and well, I'm into Wu-tang clan as well. I kinda like method man's flow alot. GZA - beneath the surface album was the bomb too, back in the day.. :) I gotta check out lupe fiasco's other songs - since this really sounds like the kind of hiphop I've been missing, since all that I see nowaydays is 50cent and the rest of the "No - point - whatsoever" artists.
is this the prequel to Handcuffs? same exact format with the "he just sits" beginning and the tweaking of the verses to become adverse to each other...
nevermind, Handcuffs' verses start with "sittin'." "he just sits" is from Hello Goodbye, so maybe that's a kind of sequel? I'm not sure but that verse would seem like a plausable consiquence to the rebellion of sorts that is alluded to in this song. hm...
