Self Conscious

[Intro]

Now you know you got to turn this super loud

Come on, now, let's go, uh

[Chorus]

Let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Okay, uh, let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, uh, uh, uh)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Smokin' right here, yeah, uh, uh)

[Verse 1]

I know you're wondering, how is Kanye spitting so hot?

'Cause I listen to the Roc and I listen and watch

And the first thing I copped was a glistening watch

Off that Blueprint money, yeah, I know I'm a dummy

But what I'm supposed to tell a girl in the club

While that ass is getting feeled on?

What, I bought a couple build-ons?

Seems like I got more brain off my fake chain than my real one

'Cause on the real, son

If a girl think you broke, she just want to fuck and smoke

If you paid then she's thinking 'bout her children, feel him?

Probably not, though, 'less you got dough, you know what I mean

You would think the grass greener when you finally get green

[Chorus]

Let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Okay, okay, uh

[Verse 2]

Man, I promise, she's so self conscious

She has no idea what she 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, ain't 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 new 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 Alexis

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

[Chorus]

Now let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Uh, let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Uh, uh, take 'em, take 'em to the lake

Let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Uh-uh, and say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now take 'em downtown

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now take 'em back to the southside

Uh, uh

[Verse 3]

Man, I promise, I'm so self conscious

That's why you always see me with at least one of my watches

Rollies and Pashas done drove me crazy

I can't even pronounce nothing, pass that Versace

Then I spent four-hundred bucks on this

Just to be like, "Nigga, you ain't up on this!"

Plus, I refuse go to the grocery store

Without some ones that's clean and a shirt with a team

It seem we living the American dream

But the 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 tryna buy back our forty acres

And for that paper, look how low we'll stoop

Even if you in a Benz, you still a nigga in a Coupe

[Chorus]

Let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Take 'em to up, uh, uh

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now, take 'em up, what?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Uh, turn the music hi-i-i-igher

Let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Okay, uh

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Uh

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Uh, uh, uh

Now let me hear you say (And, uh, and, uh)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (I decided to quit fucking with you, umm)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Wack ass niggas and, umm)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Hating ass, dream killing ass niggas)

[Outro]

And since I quit

Everyone that supported me, thank you very much

And everyone that doubted me, thank you very little
