[verse 1: kanye west]
man, man, man
if my manager insults me again i will be assaulting him
after i fuck the manager up then iand'm gonna shorten the register up
letand's go back, back to the gap
look at my check, wasnand't no scratch
so if i stole, wasnand't my fault
yeah i stole, never got caught
they take me to the back and pat me
askinand' me about some khakis
but let some black people walk in
i bet they show off their token blackie
oh now they love kanye, letand's put him all in the front of the store
saw him on break next to the and'no smokingand' sign with a blunt and a marland'
takinand' my hits, writinand' my hits
writinand' my rhymes, playinand' my mind
this fuckinand' job canand't help him
so i quit, yand'all welcome
yand'all donand't know my struggle
yand'all canand't match my hustle
you canand't catch my hustle
you canand't fathom my love dude
lock yourself in a room doinand' five beats a day for three summers
thatand's a different world like three summers
i deserve to do these numbers
the kid that made that deserves that maybach
so many records in my basement
iand'm just waitinand' on my spaceship, blaow

iand've been workinand' this graveshift and i ainand't made shit
i wish i could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
iand've been workinand' this graveshift and i ainand't made shit
i wish i could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
[verse 2: consequence]
man, iand'm talkinand' way past the sky
letand's go, yeah
and i didnand't even try to work a job
represent the mob
at the same time thirsty on the grind
chi state of mind
lost my momma, lost my mind
+my life, my love+ thatand's not mine
why you ainand't signed?
wasnand't my time
leave me alone, work for yand'all
half of itand's yours, half of itand's mine
only one to ball
never one to fall
gotta get mine
gotta take mine
got a tech nine
reach my prime
gotta make these haters respect mine
in the mall and'til 12 when my schedule wore headset nine
puttinand' known ass on shelves
waitinand' paitently i ask myself
where i wanna go, where i wanna be
life is much more than runninand' in the streets
holla at and'ye, hit me with the beat
put me on my feet
sound so sweet
yes iand'm the same oland' g, same goatee
stayinand' low key, nope
holler at god andquot;man whyand'd you had to take my folks?andquot;
hope to see freddy g., yusef g
love my g, rolly g
police watch me smoke my weed, count my gand's
got a lot of people countinand' on me
and iand'm just tryinand' to find my peace
should of finished school like my niece
then i wouldnand't finally wouldnand't use my piece, blaow
aw man, all this pressure
[hook: glc]
iand've been workinand' this graveshift and i ainand't made shit
i wish i could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
iand've been workinand' this graveshift and i ainand't made shit

[verse 3: consequence]
i remember havinand' to take the dollar cab
cominand' home real late at night
standinand' on my feet all damn day
tryinand' to make this thing right
and havinand' one of my co-workers say andquot;yo you look just like
this kid i seen in the old busta rhymes video the other nightandquot;
well easy come, easy go
how that sayinand' goes
no more broad service, cars, and them tv shows
i all had that snatched from me
and all the faculties all turn their back on me
and didnand't wanna hear a rap from me
so naturally actually had to face things factually
had to be a catastrophe with the fridgest starinand' back at me
cuz nothingand's there, nothingand's fair
i donand't wanna ever go back there
so i wonand't be takinand' no days off and'til my spaceship takes off
[hook: glc]
iand've been workinand' this graveshift and i ainand't made shit
i wish i could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
iand've been workinand' this graveshift and i ainand't made shit
i wish i could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
[outro: glc]
i wanna fly, i wanna fly
i said i want my chariot to pick me up
and take me brother for a ride
