Kanye West - Self conscious
refrain:
A way that all, all falls down
I tell you oh, it all falls down
A way that all, all falls down
I tell you oh, it all falls down
Man I promise she's so self conscious she has no idea what she's doing in college that major that she majored in don't make no money but she won't drop out her parents will look at her funny. now tell me that ain't insecure.
The concept of school seems so secure.
Sophomore three years ai'nt picked a career.
She like fuck it I'll just stay down here and do hair
Cause that's enough money to buy her a few pairs of airs
'cause her baby daddy don't really care.
She's so precious with the peer pressure,
Couldn't afford a car so she named her daughter alexus.
She had hair so long that it looked like weave
Then she cut it all off now she look like eve.
And she be dealing with some issues that you can't believe
Single black female addicted to retail.
And well
refrain:
Man I promise I'm so self conscious
That's why you always see me with at least one of my watches rollies
And poshers done drove me crazy
I can't even pronounce nothing pass that ver-say-see.
Then I spent 400 bucks on this just to be like
Nigger you aint up on this.
And I can't even go to the grocery store without
Some ones that's clean and a shirt with a team
It seems we living the american dream.
But people highest up got the lowest self esteem.
The prettiest people do the ugliest things for the road to riches
And diamond rings.
We shine because they hate us,
Floss cause they degrade us,
We trying to buy back our 40 acres.
And for that paper look how low we'll stoop
Even if you in a benz you still a nigger in a coupe.
refrain
I say fuck the police that's how I treat 'em.
We buy our way out of jail but we can't buy freedom.
We'll buy a lot of clothes when we don't really need 'em
Things we buy to cover up what's inside.
'cause they make us hate ourself and love they wealth
That's why shorty's hollering "where the ballas at".
Drug dealer buy jordan's
Crackhead buy crack and a white man get paid off of all of that.
But I ain't even gonna act holier than thou just fuck it,
I went to jacob with 25 thou before
I had a house and I'd do it again cause
I wanna be on 106th and park pushing a benz.
I wanna act ballerific like it's all terrific I got a couple past due bills wont get specific. got a problem with spending before I get it.
We all self conscious I'm just the first to admit it.
