[Intro: Rihanna, Swizz Beatz & Kanye West]
Man, I can understand how it might be
Kinda hard to love a girl like me
I don't blame you much for wanting to be free
I just wanted you to know
Woo, woo
Swizz told me let the beat rock (Oh)
Oh
[Verse 1: Kanye West & Swizz Beatz]
For all my Southside niggas that know me best
I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex
Why? I made that bitch famous (Goddamn)
I made that bitch famous
For all the girls that got dick from Kanye West
If you see 'em in the streets, give 'em Kanye's best
Why? They mad they ain't famous (Goddamn)
They mad they still nameless (Talk that talk, man)
Her man in the store tryna try his best
But he just can't seem to get Kanye fresh
But we still hood famous (Goddamn)
Yeah, we still hood famous
[Chorus: Rihanna & Swizz Beatz]
I just wanted you to know
I've loved you better than your own kin did
From the very start
I don't blame you much for wanting to be free (Wake up, Mr. West)
[Refrain: Rihanna & Swizz Beatz]
I just wanted you to know (Oh, he's up)
[Verse 2: Kanye West & Swizz Beatz]
I be Puerto Rican Day Parade floatin'
That Benz Marina Del Rey coastin'
She be Puerto Rican day parade wavin'
Last month, I helped her with the car payment
Young and we alive (Woo)
We never gonna die (Woo)
I just copped a jet to fly over personal debt
Put one up in the sky
The sun is in my eyes (Woo)
Woke up and felt the vibe (Woo)
No matter how hard they try (Woo)
We never gonna die-

[Verse: Kanye West & Kelly Price]
Now, if I fuck this model
And she just bleached her asshole
And I get bleach on my T-shirt
I'ma feel like an asshole
I was high when I met her
We was down in Tribeca
She'll get under your skin if you let her
She'll get under your skin, it's just— uh
I don't even wanna talk about it
I don't even wanna talk about it
I don't even wanna say nothin'
Everybody gon' say somethin'
I'd be worried if they said nothin', yeah, yeah
Remind me where I know you from
She lookin' like she owe you somethin'
You know just what we want
I wanna wake up with you in mind, beautiful morning
[Chorus: Kid Cudi & Choir]
Beautiful mornin', you're the sun in my mornin', babe
Nothin' unwanted (Who can I turn to?)
Beautiful mornin', you're the sun in my mornin', babe (No other help I know)
Nothin' unwanted
