[Kanye West]

Its what you all been waiting for aint it?

What people pay paper for damn it

They cant stand it, they want something new

So let's get re-acquainted

Became the hood favorite

I cant even explain it

I surprise myself too

Life of a Don, lights keep glowin'

Comin' in the club wit that fresh shit on, with something crazy on my arm

Ha Ha Hum, here's another hit, Barry Bonds

[Hook - Kanye West]

(yeah yeah yeah yeah)

We outta here baby!

[Kanye West]

Dude!

Fresh off the plane, konitchiwa bitches

Turn around another plane, my passport on pimpin

As for what I did, that nigga done did it

Talked it and he lived it, spitted then he shitted

I don't need to write hits, I might bounce ideas,

But only I could come up with some shit like this

I done played the underdog my whole career

Ive been a very good sport, haven't I, this year

They said he's going crazy and we seen this before

But I'm doing pretty good as far as geniuses go

And I'm doing pretty hood in my pink polo

Please, how you gonna say I ain't no low-head

Cos my Dior got me more my dough-head

I'm insulted

You should go here

And bow so hard till your knees hit your forehead

And the flow just hit code red

Top 5 MC's you ain't gotta remind me

Top 5 MC's you gotta rewind me

I'm high up on the line, you can get behind me

But my head's so big you can't sit behind me

Life of a Don, lights keep glowin'

Comin' in the club wit that fresh shit on, with something crazy on my arm

Ha Ha Hum, here's another hit, Barry Bonds

[Hook - Lil Wayne]

(Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah)

Yeah, Yeah, We outta here baby!

Wha, Wha, We outta here baby!

And Mr. West is so outta here baby

And me, I'm Mr. Weezy Baby

[Lil Wayne]

I'm so bright not shady

My teeth and my eyes so wight like Shady

Ice in my teeth so refrigerated

Whenever they make them, I shall hate them

Oops I meant have them, I'm so crazy

But if you get crazy you be sleeping with daisies

Its such a hay-bit, oops i meant habit

And my drink's still pinker than the easter rabbit

And I'm still cold (cole) like Keisha's family

Stove on my waist turn beef to baddies

And i ate it cos I'm so at it

I don't front and I don't go backwards

And I don't practice

and I don't lack shit

And you can get Barried

[Chorus - Kanye West]

We outta here baby

[Lil Wayne]

Life of a Don, lights keep glowin'

Comin' in the club wit that fresh shit on

Wit something crazy on my arm

Ha Ha Hum, man here's another hit, Barry Bonds

(yeah yeah yeah yeah)
