"Self Conscious (A.K.A. Yeah)" lyrics - KANYE WEST
Chorus (Syleena Johnson):
A way that all, all falls down
I tell you oh, it all falls down
A way that all, all falls down
I tell you oh, it all falls down
Kanye West:
Man I promise she's so self conscious she has no idea what she's 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 insecurrr. The concept of school seems so securrr. Sophmore three yurrs ain't picked a carurr. She like fuck it ill just stay down hurr and do hair 'cause that's enough money to buy her a few pairs of 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 alexus. 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 well
Kanye west:
Man I promise I'm so self conscious that's why you always see me with at least one of my watches rollies and poshers done drove me crazy I can't even pronounce nothing pass that ver-say-see. Then I spent 400 bucks on this just to be like nigga you ain't up on this. And I can't even go to the grocery store without some ones that's clean and a shirt with a team it seems we living the American dream. But 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 trying to buy back our 40 acres. And for that paper look how low we'll stoop even if you in a benz you still a nigga in a coupe.
Kanye West:
I say fuck the police that's how I treat em. We buy our way out of jail but we can't buy freedom. We'll buy alot of clothes when we don't really need 'em things we buy to cover up what's inside. 'Cause they make us hate ourself and love they wealth that's why shortys hollering "where the ballas at". Drug dealer buy jordans crackhead buy crack and a white man get paid off of all of that. But I ain't even gonna act holyer than thou just fuck it, I went to jacob with 25 thou before I had a house and I'd do it again 'cause I wanna be on 106th and park pushing a benz. I wanna act ballerific like it's all terrific I got a couple past due bills won't get specific. Got a problem with spendin before I get it. We all self conscious I'm just the first to admit it.
Till fades out
