Letting Go

"Letting Go" is the lead track for Lupe Fiasco's third studio album, Lasers (2011). It features guest vocals from Sarah Green and samples Public Enemy's "Public Enemy No. 1".
Fiasco informed Chicago Tribune, "It's my declaration of independence from the clutches of the record industry, the blogs, the fans, the press, the lifestyle. It's me hanging over the side of a building. Remember in the “Juice” movie, the scene where Tupac is being held over the side of a building? I envisioned that in this song. There is a part of me that has been lost because of all this. I lost a damaged piece of me. And I got the rest of me back. We were performing parts of the record that the label was saying were not a hit, yet on stage people were hearing these songs and would go crazy in reaction to them. It made me realize that somebody is not telling the truth, and that things were going to be OK.""Lupe Fiasco discusses the making of 'L.A.S.E.R.S.': 'It was destroying me'". Chicago Tribune.
