[00:26.86]That major that she majored in don't make no money
[00:29.59]But she won't drop out, her parents will look at her funny
[00:32.14]Now, tell me that ain't insecurrre
[00:34.63]The concept of school seems so securrre
[00:37.19]Sophmore three yearrrs aint picked a careerrr
[00:39.72]She like fuck it, I'll just stay down herre and do hair
[00:42.21]Cause that's enough money to buy her a few pairs of new Airs
[00:45.91]Cause her baby daddy don't really care
[00:47.91]She's so precious with the peer pressure
[00:50.42]Couldn't afford a car so she named her daughter Alexus (a Lexus)
[00:53.06]She had hair so long that it looked like weave
[00:55.39]Then she cut it all off now she look like Eve
[00:57.89]And she be dealing with some issues that you can't believe
[01:00.76]Single black female addicted to retail and well
[01:03.62]
[01:03.89][Chorus - repeat 2x (w/ Kanye ad-libs)]
[01:04.32]Oh when it all, it all falls down

[01:17.10]Man I promise, I'm so self conscious
[01:18.71]That's why you always see me with at least one of my watches
[01:19.72]Rollies and Pasha's done drove me crazy
[01:21.87]I can't even pronounce nothing, pass that versace!
[01:24.48]Then I spent 400 bucks on this
[01:27.05]Just to be like nigga you ain't up on this!
[01:29.61]And I can't even go to the grocery store
[01:32.14]Without some ones thats clean and a shirt with a team
[01:34.83]It seems we living the american dream
[01:37.78]But the people highest up got the lowest self esteem
[01:40.20]The prettiest people do the ugliest things
[01:42.80]For the road to riches and diamond rings
[01:45.35]We shine because they hate us, floss cause they degrade us
[01:48.05]We trying to buy back our 40 acres
[01:50.64]And for that paper, look how low we a'stoop
[01:53.26]Even if you in a Benz, you still a nigga in a coop/coupe
[01:55.63]
[01:55.88][Chorus - repeat 2x (w/ Kanye ad-libs)]
[01:56.29]Oh when it all, it all falls down
[02:00.69]I'm telling you ohh, it all falls down
[02:06.16]Oh when it all, it all falls down
[02:06.75]I'm telling you ohh, it all falls down
[02:06.96]
[02:07.23][Verse - Kanye West]
[02:07.57]I say fuck the police, thats how I treat em
[02:09.12]We buy our way out of jail, but we can't buy freedom
[02:11.58]We'll buy a lot of clothes when we don't really need em
[02:14.17]Things we buy to cover up what's inside
[02:17.04]Cause they make us hate ourself and love they wealth
[02:19.40]That's why shortys hollering "where the ballas' at?"
[02:22.01]Drug dealer buy Jordans, crackhead buy crack
[02:24.69]And a white man get paid off of all of that
[02:27.15]But I ain't even gon act holier than thou
[02:30.01]Cause fuck it, I went to Jacob with 25 thou
[02:32.41]Before I had a house and I'd do it again
[02:35.24]Cause I wanna be on 106 and Park pushing a Benz
[02:37.81]I wanna act ballerific like it's all terrific
[02:40.38]I got a couple past due bills, I won't get specific
[02:42.82]I got a problem with spending before I get it
[02:45.58]We all self conscious I'm just the first to admit it
[02:48.23]
[02:48.47][Chorus - to fade (w/ Kanye ad-libs)]
