INTRO (Lupe Fiasco):
2
Now if you never left Houston, get a passport,
3
Never left little Haiti, get a passport,
4
If you live in South Central, get a passport
5
So you can see the world
6
Yeah, and if you rep the five boroughs, get a passport
7
Or if you're in the dirty south, get a passport,
8
If you're on the Westside, get a passport
9
So you can see the world
10
VERSE 1 (Pharrell):
11
Now I've been known to levitate like a hobo tryna catch a freight
12
To get away, and clear the day
13
Then Ill be smiling at the stars like the hood does cars
14
Little ghetto mind you should travel like a bullet from your favorite gun barrel or the Indians arrow
15
Mathematically aligned like the pyramids of pharos
16
Dont let them bring your mind like you and your boys are cattle
17
Fly to Paris, and end up in Tokyo
18
Lets start a coalition so even the broker go
19
To all those who never sold coke before
20
And with no ambitions to rock a roll
21
Let my people go
22
To broaden their horizons
23
Sharpen all they minds in
24
Sharper than the prong or the Neptunes trident
25
Im just rambling; I ride my bike in the clouds
26
Mr. Spielberg, hire me at Amblin
27
To the nigga Pimp C, God bless your life
28
And the creators of the Serum, I hope youre resting right
29
Because youre scooting out in lies, kids and wives
30
And in my mind Im going woo woo, just like the hives
31
But in my mind, compromise my design
32
Like a missing puzzle piece, make apletion hard to find
33
Hours resuscitated by Capri Sun juice packs
34
Woke up singing nerd songs and you can youtube that
35
Now stay away from people that pursuit they lack
36
And remember your starter kit was this Lupe track
37
Now one love, one love,
38
Hey love, see you in Tokyo
39
VERSE 2 (Q-Tip):

[Paris,Tokyo (Remix Feat. Pharrell, Q-Tip, Sarah Green) Lyrics On http://www.elyricsworld.com/ ]
41
My new passport has been issued so Im ready
42
Trekking the Sahara or grazing the Serengeti
43
I am there if theres speakers in the place
44
I will see a foreign face
45
My magic carpet shuttles me through the human race
46
But, no matter whats on her mood to foreign district
47
My postcards so you I missed it
48
It being us
49
How we would discuss finding treasures
50
Deep in choral reefs, tigerbilliesislands of pleasure
51
Holding you my pretty, till I get home to our city
52
In this chitty-chitty bang bang brutal to our bus
53
So I take it in
54
The wonderments of the world
55
Sampling each cuisine, a dinner without a girl
56
Presents for my people like these silly t-shirts
57
While Rebeccas at the sound check hooked to Mic works
58
I remember days when the dollar was strong
59
Hopefully it gets better
60
I wont be gone long, backpack
61
CHORUS (Lupe Fiasco):
62
Lets go to sleep in Paris, wake up in Tokyo
63
Have a dream in New Orleans, fall in love in Chicago, mang
64
Now we can land in the motherland, camel back across the desert sand
65
Take a train, to Rome, or home, Brazil, for real
66
Wherever I go she goes
67
VERSE 3 (Sarah Green):
68
Yeah, Id done seen Paris and woke up in Tokyo
69
But Im a always be Sarah Green from the Southside of Chicago
70
Just because you on section 8 and he left it dont mean a thing
71
Just come and take a flight with me, baby girl its a world to see
72
I never thought the Seven Wonders of the World would be so wonderful
73
You get your ghetto pass, now go and get your passport and make your swagger international
74
If you can, catch a flight, you can go, in your mind
75
Your destiny, you(Dont know wtf this woman said)
76
Wherever I go, we go
77
VERSE 4 (LUPE FIASCO):
78
Oversees, even over here I over seer like Im tryna stop youfrom getting freer
79
From truth I never veer, see, so
80
Faithfully, I steer as I ride through your city like revere, revere
81
Now everybody, gone and put your hands in the air
82
All you haters with your hands in your ears, its ok
83
Cuz later, it will sneak up on you like its metal gear
84
Put you in a chokehold and then unconsciously youll hear
85
Remain upper tier, aint no crying down here
86
Only shed is in the back, yard with the tools in it
87
My hoods in disrepair with no schools in it
88
All the food aint got no fuel in it
89
So crude, thats why Im duel in it
90
Some dudes thinking what rasoloolah do in it
91
Not what they did then, but now what do you do with it?
92
I know youre sick of all the rat-tat-tat-tat
93
Well this the soothing sounds of the backpack rat pack
94
Seeing Sarah green from the FNF crew,
95
Two from the Child Rebel
96
And the Q
97
When I be home I resist it like its Ohms
98
I was there, now Im gone
99
Shalom
100
END PART (LUPE FIASCO):
101
Yeah, and if you rep the Midwest get a passport,
102
If you from Detroit, get a passport,
103
If you from Chi-town, get a passport,
104
So you can see the world
105
Get that little black girl, a passport
106
Get that little black boy, a passport,
107
If you aint got one, get yourself a passport,
108
So you can see the world!
