[Intro: Kanye West]It's after hours at that glamorous night spotAnd they're taking it easy, swapping personal experiencesLet's listen in America TodayLife of the party, mhm, 'til I almost cry, mhmIt's the life of the party, to think I could've almost diedLord, help us[Verse 1: André 3000]Hey, Miss DondaYou run into my mama, please tell her I said, "Say something"I'm startin' to believe ain't no such thing as Heaven's trumpetsNo after-over, this is it, doneIf there's a Heaven, you would think they'd let ya speak to your sonMaybe she has in the form of a baby's laughI heard passing by in a stroller remindin' me, "Hey, keep rolling"I don't know, maybe she has with a prick of a blade of grassI've been layin' on way too long, got me itchyGot up and roamed a lil' moreMiss Donda, you see my mama, tell her I'm lostYou see, she'd always light a cigarette, we talk, I would coughExaggeratin' a lil' bit so she get the pointTryna get her to stop smokin', I would leave and fire up a *****'Til I quit, started back up again, twenty years laterAll that time, y'all thought a ***** was high, thought I was crazyMy mom, she ain't cut no cornersGot me back on track, I don't miss her oversteppingBut do miss her showin' Seven civilian life ****Ah, Miss Donda, you see my mama, whisper her thisThe real reason I was geeked to go to churchMust confess, when y'all grown-ups would be in Bible studyThat girl helping me with my homework? Her and I were ****So pure and ****, so spirit spinning and dirtySo on, so on, and so on, we hoped that no one heard usAnd to this day, I think her mama knew but let us exploreMiss Donda, you see my father, please, ask him why he never marriedAlways smiled, but was he happy inside?Because I carried my mother's name, did he carry shame with him?I'm sure she did it out of spite, 'twas her decision at birthShit, she probably was hurt, ah, poor babyTwo young people with different views, a lot for a young ladyNo coincidence, they both passed away from heart conditionsThere's a dissidence at play, dad and mom do hard divisionThree Thou', poster child for big **** **** raised by their mothersI'm supposed to smile as if God knew that I would be troubledKeeps me around, for what? I don't knowBut I do know that it's crucial, that we do so, prontoI don't know how much long though[Chorus: Kanye West, The Notorious B. I. G. & Diddy]Straight from Shibuya, on some zenWe back, ramped up, we on tenIt's a marathon and look, we comin' for the winJust like Puff told Christopher, we gon' win big (C'mon)Put the whole family on, look at what my Kim didJust like Puff told Christopher, we gon' win big (Uh)We gon' win big (What?)[Verse 2: Kanye West]Southside gang mentality weigh heavyI was thinkin' out the box even in a Box ChevyAnd my favorite art teacher name was Mrs. Levy'Round the time, I learned to put my feelings to a medley (The life of the party)I ain't turn in homework for like four months and I bet she let meShe saw the vision"Yeezy you special, go make your own decisions then"Man, that was a good choice, faith driving us like a Rolls RoyceThey tried to take my voice away, I ain't try to take ya choice awayI just prayed the water break, just for my daughter sake, from a slip-upFake signatures from fake managers, it all damage ya, good LordGive 'em enough of they own rope to hang 'em withThe paparazzi never really got what my angle isThey treat my married life like some type of entanglementMy neighbor still dissin', wonderin' why I ain't sayin' itI can smell the setup, that's that 2pac in Vegas hitI revealed myself and some don't know what to make of itGod has said himself to make sure that the baby liveAnd if Ye ain't here, then tell me who gonna say this here?Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a goddamn minuteLet me stop playing with it, hopped in a Lamb' with itHopped in a Lamb' with it, in a damn pandemicNerve of Uncle Sam gotta have his damn hand in it[Chorus: Kanye West, The Notorious B.
