The international asshole Who complains about what he is owed? And throw a tantrum like he is three years old You gotta love it though somebody still speaks from his soul And wouldn't change by the change, or the game, or the fame, When he came, in the game, he made his own lane Now all I need is y'all to pronounce my name Its Kanye - But some of my plaques - they still say Kane Got family in the D, Kin-folk from Motown Back in the Chi - them folks ain't from Motown Life movin' too fast I need to slow down Girl ain't give me no ass, ya need to go down

I gotta testify, come up in the spot looking extra fly 'Fore the day I die, I'm a touch the sky Gotta testify, come up in the spot looking extra fly 'Fore the day I die, I'm a touch the sky
Back when they thought pink polos would hurt the Roc, Before Cam got the shit to pop, the doors was closed. I felt like Bad Boy's street team, I couldn't work the Lox. Now let's go. Take 'em back to the plan... Me and my mama hopped in the U-Haul van. Any pessimists I ain't talk to them, Plus, I ain't have no phone in my apartment. Let's take 'em back to the club. Least about an hour I would stand on line, I just wanted to dance. I went to Jacob an hour after I got my advance. I just wanted to shine. Jay's favorite line: "Dog, in due time" Now he look at me, like "Damn, dog, you where I am" A hip hop legend, I think I died in an accident, cause this must be heaven.
I gotta testify, come up in the spot looking extra fly 'Fore the day I die, I'm a touch the sky Gotta testify, come up in the spot looking extra fly 'Fore the day I die, I'm a touch the sky

Back when Gucci was the shit to rock, Back when Slick Rick got the shit to pop, I would do anything to say "I got it," Damn, them new loafers hurt my pocket. Before anybody wanted K-West beats, Me and my girl split the buffet at KFC. Dog, I was having nervous breakdowns, Like "Man, these niggas that much better than me?" Baby, I'm going on an aeroplane, And I don't know if I'll be back again. Sure enough, I sent the plane tickets, But when she came to kick it, things became different. Any girl I cheated on, sheets I skeeted on. I couldn't keep it home, I thought I needed a Nia Long. I'm trying to write my wrongs, But it's funny them same wrongs helped me write this song. Now,
I gotta testify, come up in the spot looking extra fly 'Fore the day you die, You gonna touch the sky You gonna touch the sky baby girl! Testify, come up in the spot Looking extra fly 'Fore the day you die, You gonna touch the sky
Yes, yes, yes guess who's on third? Lupe steal like Lupin the Third. Here like ear till I'm beer on the curb Peach fuzz buzz but beard on the verge Let's slow it down like we're on the syrup Bottle-shaped body like Mrs. Butterworth's. But, before you say another word, I'm back on the block like a man on the street. I'm trying to stop Lion like I'm Mumm-Ra, But I'm not lying when I'm laying on the beat. Engarde, Touche Lupe cool as the unthawed, But I still feel as possessed as a gun charge. Come as correct as a porn star, In a fresh pair of steps and my best foreign car. So, I represent the first. Now, let me end my verse right where the horns are like
I gotta testify, come up in the spot looking extra fly 'Fore the day you die, You gonna touch the sky You gonna touch the sky baby girl! Testify, come up in the spot Looking extra fly 'Fore the day you die, You gonna touch the sky

My homie Marty used to stay, Sunny 9th and May One of my best friends from back in the day Down the street from Calumet, a school full of stones He nicknamed me K-Rock so they'd leave me alone Bulls jacket with his hat broke way off And walked around the mall with his radio face off Plus he had the spinner from his Daytons in his hand, keys in his hand Reason again to let you know he's the man Back when we rocked the leases, he had dreams of Caprices Drove by the teachers, even more by polices How he get the cash the day his father passed away Left him with a lil' somethin, 16 he was stuntin' Al B. Sure nigga with the hair all wavy Hit Lakeshore girls, go all crazy Hit the freeway, go at least 'bout 80 Boned so much that summer, even had him a baby See back back then then if you had a car You was the Chi-Town version of Baby And I was just a virgin, a baby One of the reasons I looked up to him crazy I used to love to play my demo tape when the system yanked Felt like I was almost signed when the shit got cranked We'll take a Saturday and just circle the mall They had they Lakers and our Royals, we was hurtin 'em all With the girls a lot of flirtin' involved, but Dawg Fuck all that flirtin' I'm tryin' to get in some drawers, so Put me on with these hoes homey He told me don't rush to get grown, drive slow homey.

And I know the government administer aids, So I guess we just pray like the minister say Abu Akhbar be throwin' some hot cause Things we seein' on the screen not ours But these niggas from the hood, so these dreams not far Where I'm from the dope boys is the rock stars But they can't cop cars without seein' cop cars I guess they want us all behind bars, I know it, uh.
And I heard 'em say, nothin's ever promised tomorrow, today And I heard 'em say, nothin's ever promised tomorrow, today But we'll find a way.
Adam Levine And nothin's ever promised tomorrow today And nothin' lasts forever, but be honest baby It hurts, but it may be the only way.
Kanye West They say people in your life for seasons And anything that happen is for a reason And niggas gun-clappin' and keep to squeezin' And gran' keep prayin' and keep believin' In Jesus, and one day that she'll see him. It's alive, I feel him breathin' Claimin' money is the key, so keep on dreamin' And put them lottery tickets just to tease us My Aunt Pam can't put them cigarettes down, So now my little cousin smokin' them cigarettes now His job try to claim that he too niggerish now Is it cause his skin blacker than licorice now? I can't figure it out, sick of it now.
And I heard 'em say, nothin's ever promised tomorrow, today And I heard 'em say, nothin's ever promised tomorrow today But we'll find a way.
Adam Levine And nothin's ever promised tomorrow today And nothin' lasts forever, but be honest baby It hurts, but it may be the only way. With every worthless word we get more far away And nothin's ever promised tomorrow today And nothin' lasts forever, but be honest, baby It hurts, but it may be the only way.
