My dog worked at Taco Bell, hooked us up plural
Il mio amico lavorava da Taco Bell, ci sistemava al plurale
Fired a week later the manager count the churros
Licenziato una settimana dopo il manager conta i churros
Sometimes I can't believe it when I look up in the mirror
A volte non ci credo quando mi guardo allo specchio
How we out in Europe, spendin' Euros
Come siamo finiti in Europa, spendendo euro
They claim you never know what you got 'til it's gone
Dicono che non sai mai cosa hai finché non lo perdi
I know I got it, I don't know what y'all on
Io so di averlo, non so su cosa siete voi
I'mma open up a store for aspiring MC's
Aprirò un negozio per aspiranti MC
Won't sell 'em no dream, but the inspiration is free
Non venderò loro un sogno, ma l'ispirazione è gratuita
But if they ever flip sides like Anakin
Ma se mai cambieranno lato come Anakin
You'll sell everything includin' the mannequin
Venderai tutto incluso il manichino
They got a new bitch, now you Jennifer Aniston
Hanno una nuova ragazza, ora sei Jennifer Aniston
Hold on I'll handle it, don't start panickin', stay calm
Aspetta, me ne occupo io, non iniziare a panico, resta calmo
Shorty's at the door 'cause they need more
Le ragazze sono alla porta perché hanno bisogno di più
Inspiration for they life, they souls, and they songs
Ispirazione per la loro vita, le loro anime e le loro canzoni
They said sorry Mr. West is gone
Hanno detto scusa signor West è andato
[Intro: Otis Redding och Kanye West]
Önskar jag sa till ooh var den enda (Uh oh)
Men det är för sent
Det är för sent
Han är borta
[Vers 1: Kanye West]
Du gillar henne, och jag pratar inte om Coogie
Du ett stort L, och jag pratar inte om Cool J
Se mig på flygplatsen, minst tjugo Louis
Behandla mig som en prins och det här är min broder Numpsay
(Broder Numpsay!) Groupies säger jag är för kräsen
Tar de till showen och pratar genom hela filmen
Säger hon vill ha diamanter, jag tog henne till Ruby Tuesdays
Om vi är i Fridays, har jag det fortfarande på mitt sätt!
[Refräng 1: Kanye West and Cam'ron]
Borta
Vi strävar hem
Borta
Jag kör i krom
[Vers 2: Kanye West]
Ni vill inte ha problem med mig
Vad ni rappare kan få är ett jobb från mig
Kanske du kan vara min praktikant, och på så sätt
Kan jag visa dig hur jag kokar sommarеn under vintern
Aaron älskar ingen kondom, när ska han lära sig
Fick något på Ushеrs turné, han behövde låta det bränna
Plus, han hade redan typ tre
Bråkar över barnvakt, "Bitch, det är din tur"
"Fan, Ye, det skulle vara dumt att dissa dig
Även dina ytliga rappar är superofficiella"
R-R-R-Roc Pastelle med Gucci på
Med TV i bilen, sätt på en film
Sa han inte kunde rappa, nu han på toppen med Doobie Long
För jag rappa på varje sång som de kasta mig på
[Refräng 2: Cam'ron och Orits Redding]
Vi strävar hem, borta
Jag kör i krom, borta
Vi strävar hem
Vi strävar hem, borta
Jag kör i krom
[Vers 3: Cam'ron]
Knack knack, vem där? Killa Cam, Killa vem?
Killa Cam, hustler, arbetare, gerilla lag
Oh min chinchilla blå, bli, har du hanterats med en langare
Här är dealen, vi går till langaren, woo
Inget döljande, inget tak jag behöver inget tak
Strula, ut, jag behöver inte dig, poof!
Poof, gå bort, fan, otur
Niggas fortfarande puff-puff-pass (Puff, pass)
Kör upp bilen snabbt och jag säger till dem
Hej, tillbaka i en renoverad Jag, fan
Ni niggas vill komma in i Cams lillhjärna
En gammal man kommer bara att berätta för dem för sent
Sen ser jag hur ni kommer reagera när jag är borta
Min senaste tjej vill ha mig tillbaka då är jag på
Okej, stanna, du har lusten, hej
Kom tillbaka, läs vad skylten säger (För sent, han är borta)
Ja, jag vet att du vill se min död
Ja, din kyrka, mannen, agerar som en förklädd tjuv
Är inte ens min storlek, se girigheten i mina ögon
Fråga Abby, jag langa, tog med gräs till Chi, chyeah
Och det är inte ens en lögn, snälla tro mig
Gav Weezie en bit av kakan och
Du kan fråga George eller Regina
Hela Västerort utforskar jag med Bimmern nu
[Refräng 3: Cam'ron]
Vi strävar hem
Jag kör i krom
Lyssna, mannen, gå vidare
Det är ditt bästa val, varför, Cons?
[Vers 4: Consequence]
Jag har hällt ut sprit för att min kompis är borta
Och försöker hjälpa hans mamma med att hennes barn är borta
Och eftersom vi brukade bubbla som en balja full av Calgon
Antar att det är rätt att hjälpa henne från och med nu
Men sen de misslyckades med vad som kunde ha gå fel
Nu frågar de "Cons, hur länge har det här pågått?"
Och kanske alla dessa pengar har gått till mitt huvud
För de fick mig att tänka på att pengar kan ha gått till polisen
Så jag gick mot fruktan, men han hade gått upp och lagt sig
Och när jag kom nästa morgon var han borta med mitt bröd
Och med det sagt hade jag gått på mina instinkter
Och gått till ställena där de går för att få blandade drinkar
Men nu när jag ser tillbaka borde jag ha gått till huset
Och hyrt Gone With the Wind, för jag gick in vid tio
Men jag gick med min vän, och vi gick till baren
Och hörde en nigga prata skit så jag gick till bilen
Och nu säger domaren att jag gick för långt
Och nu har vi suttit bakom galler i tjugo år
Och eftersom jag gick till en cell för några småbrott
Jag antar att jag gick till brunnen en för många gånger, för jag är borta
[Paus: Kanye West]
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh-uh uh uh onnn, uh uh-uh onnn
Uh-uh onnn, uh uh-uh
[Vers 5: Kanye West]
Jag är före min tid, ibland år
Så krafterna som finns låter mig inte få ut mina idéer
Och det får mig vilja få ut mitt förskott
Och flytta till Oklahoma och bara leva i min mosters hus
Yeah, Jag älskar tanken att lämna allt bakom mig
Kanye gå bort från kalken
Som när jag jobbade
I 1-9-9-9
Innan modell brudar böjde sig fram
Eller återförsäljarna fråga mig "Benz eller Rover?"
Mannen, om jag bara kunde få ett beat på Hova
Skulle vi kunna resa oss från soffan
Vad har Chi's sommar att erbjuda en artonåring?
Sälja droger eller få ett jobb, du måste spela din roll
Min bror jobba på Taco Bell, hjälpte oss plural
Sparkad en vecka senare, chefen räknade churros
Ibland kunde jag inte tro det när jag tittade i spegeln
Hur vi är i Europa, spenderar Euros
De antar du aldrig vet vad du har tills det är borta
Jag vet jag har det, jag vet inte vad ni tror
Jag ska öppna en butik för blivande MCs
Kommer inte sälja de drömmar, men inspirationen är gratis
Men om de någonsin byter sida som Anakin
Kommer du sälja allt inklusive skyltdockan
De har en ny bitch, nu du Jennifer Aniston
Vänta jag hanterar det, börja inte få panik, håll dig lugn
Brudar vid dörren för de behöver mer
Inspiration för deras liv, deras själar, och deras sånger
De sa, "Ledsen, Mr. West är borta"
