[Intro: Kanye West & Jeezy]
~#**************#~
La, la, la-la (Yeah)
~#**************#~
Wait til I get my money right
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Kanye West]
~#**************#~
I had a dream I could buy my way to Heaven
~#**************#~
When I awoke, I spent that on a necklace
~#**************#~
I told God Id be back in a second
~#**************#~
Man, its so hard not to act reckless
~#**************#~
To whom much is given, much is tested
~#**************#~
Get arrested, guess until he get the message
~#**************#~
I feel the pressure, under more scrutiny
~#**************#~
And what I do? Act more stupidly
~#**************#~
Bought more jewelry, more Louis V
~#**************#~
My mama couldnt get through to me
~#**************#~
The drama, people suing me
~#**************#~
Im on TV talking like its just you and me
~#**************#~
Im just saying how I feel, man
~#**************#~
I aint one of the Cosbys, I aint go to Hillman
~#**************#~
I guess the money shouldve changed him
~#**************#~
I guess I shouldve forgot where I came from
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Kanye West & Jeezy]
~#**************#~
La, la, la-la (Ayy!)
~#**************#~
Wait til I get my money right
~#**************#~
La, la, la-la (Yeah!)
~#**************#~
Then you cant tell me nothing, right?
~#**************#~
Excuse me, was you saying something?
~#**************#~
Uh-uh, you cant tell me nothing (Yeah! Haha!)
~#**************#~
You cant tell me nothing (Yeah! Yeah!)
~#**************#~
Uh-uh, you cant tell me nothing (Yeah!)
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Kanye West]
~#**************#~
Let up the suicide doors
~#**************#~
This is my life, homie, you decide yours
~#**************#~
I know that Jesus died for us
~#**************#~
But I couldnt tell ya who decide wars
~#**************#~
So I parallel double-parked that motherfucker sideways
~#**************#~
Old folks talking bout, “Back in my day”
~#**************#~
But homie, this is my day
~#**************#~
Class started two hours ago, oh, am I late?
~#**************#~
No, I already graduated
~#**************#~
And you can live through anything if Magic made it
~#**************#~
They say I talk with so much emphasis
~#**************#~
Ooh, they so sensitive
~#**************#~
Dont ever fix your lips like collagen
~#**************#~
And say something when you gon end up apologing
~#**************#~
Let me know if its a problem then
~#**************#~
Aight, man, holla, then
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Kanye West & Jeezy]
~#**************#~
La, la, la-la
~#**************#~
Wait til I get my money right
~#**************#~
La, la, la-la (Yeah!)
~#**************#~
Then you cant tell me nothing, right?
~#**************#~
Excuse me, was you saying something?
~#**************#~
Uh-uh, you cant tell me nothing
~#**************#~
You cant tell me nothing
~#**************#~
Uh-uh, you cant tell me nothing
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Kanye West]
~#**************#~
Let the champagne splash, let that man get cash
~#**************#~
Let that man get past
~#**************#~
He dont even stop to get gas
~#**************#~
If he can move through the rumors
~#**************#~
He can drive off of fumes cause
~#**************#~
How he move in a room full of nos?
~#**************#~
How he stay faithful in a room full of hoes?
~#**************#~
Must be the pharaohs, he in tune with his soul
~#**************#~
So when he buried in a tomb full of gold
~#**************#~
Treasure, whats your pleasure?
~#**************#~
Life is a–uh–depending how you dress her
~#**************#~
So if the Devil wear Prada, Adam Eve wear nada
~#**************#~
Im in between, but way more fresher
~#**************#~
With way less effort
~#**************#~
‘Cause when you try hard, thats when you die hard
~#**************#~
Your homies looking like, “Why, God?”
~#**************#~
When they reminisce over you, my God
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Kanye West & Jeezy]
~#**************#~
La, la, la-la
~#**************#~
Wait til I get my money right
~#**************#~
La, la, la-la
~#**************#~
Then you cant tell me nothing, right?
~#**************#~
Excuse me, was you saying something?
~#**************#~
Uh-uh, you cant tell me nothing
~#**************#~
You cant tell me nothing
~#**************#~
Uh-uh, you cant tell me nothing
~#**************#~
[Outro: Kanye West & Jeezy]
~#**************#~
La, la, la la
~#**************#~
Wait til I get my money right
~#**************#~
La, la, la la
~#**************#~
Then you cant tell me nothing, right?
~#**************#~
(Im serious, nigga, I got money)
~#**************#~
