Kanye West - Chain Heavy lyrics

[Intro: Kanye West] Uh, we got the black elite in the house tonight Rosewood I feel like I'm at the NAACP or something right now Essence Festival Q-Tip on the beat, too [Hook 1: Kanye West] My chain heavy, yeah, yeah, my chain heavy My chain heavy, my chain too heavy My chain heavy, yeah, yeah, my chain heavy My chain heavy, my chain too heavy [Verse 1: Kanye West] They try to tell me my chain broke the levee Maybe cause it's flooded Why you walk around with a baby cross's cousin? My teeth already white, y'all gon' make me floss for nothing My teeth real diamonds , what's the cause of the fronting? Why y'all got all caps on? Don Cheadle time, get extra black on 'em Burn, Hollywood, burn! Take too long for n***as to get they turn Probably be cremated before I get my earn They try to tell me that aliens built the Pyramids I swear life's a b**h, on a period For every inch they cut the nose off the Sphinx I make my j**eler add a few more links You can look at me tell I don't give a f** what nobody think And my face always looking like somebody stinks [Hook] [Bridge: Kanye West] Here we go, like we should Feel the sweat, on your face Here we go, like we should Feel the sweat, on your face Alright, okay Here we go, like we should Like we should, like we should Like we should [Verse 2: Kanye West] Question: what color was the skin of the man who beared the cross? No matter how many lashes, they couldn't beat it off How many Ca**ius will we see in one lifetime? That's why it's Miles Davis, Kobe, it's Mike time I keep that GOAT book on the ottoman And wrote hooks about slaves that was slaughtered in the 1800s Y'all forget that I got called "n***a" On Twitter so many times, yo, I lived that Now I'm just tryna find where to raise my kids at Cause they don't want n***as next to where they crib at Hey realtor, I'm lookin' for a nice park Twelve noon, she said my family gon' make it too dark This is the flow that solar eclipses So hopefully one day that real soul will eclipse The bullsh** they got us listening to in this existence Don't give up now just a little more persistence I am the day Ice Cube met Michael Jackson Keep him away, huh? Something might happen This is the making of a masterpiece So we broke out the chains and told the master "Peace!" [Hook] + [Bridge] [Verse 3: Talib Kweli] Some wear a suit and tie, they don't wanna remain average Some wear a suit and tie like a chain and a straitjacket My chain heavy, stop in that traffic, coppers hara** us Then DA attack us, want us in chains like B.A. Baracus So no major factor in my decision to be a rapper Was rebellion; being anti-establishment was attractive To a black kid from Brooklyn, flames got the things cooking Land of the juks where them lames get them chains tooken It ain't lookin' good for you if you're a tourist here Sometimes I rhymes the sort of frequency that only purists hear A couple rappers tried to beef with me nobody scared n***as was so f**ing corny that nobody cared Why I gotta battle rappers? I debate scholars Question: do it gotta make sense if it make dollars? Sick visions is living inside of brains It's like we sadomasochistic, addicted to whips and chains Figuratively, quite literally, clinically insane Spit flames and then visit the higher plane Try in vain to ignore it, don't buy the chain if you can't afford it 'Ye them load of who*es by the boards Trust [Verse 4: Consequence] That old ball-and-chain had me chained up for weeks So of course I'm off the chain as soon as I hit the streets And now when we link she saying the game's over I drove her crazy and she became a chain smoker Now the new dude she's saying that can stay over Should be a chain who goes by the name of Choker That's what he did when she told him he should play the sofa So the chains on the door, I'm on the way over Now when I came over his only response was: "You must be the owner of a chain of restaurants Cause I'mma eat your food for that chain that I wore Cause you be running around like the chain make the man" So it's obvious the he don't know the chain of command Cause my chain commands that kind of respect And it's so chunky that it's a pain in the neck But it came with a check, I remember on chaining day It spoke for itself and this is what the chain would say: "Them chain snatchers are hoping that you ain't ready So don't get distracted keep your aim steady Or there'll be a chain reaction since my chain's heavy" [Hook] + [Bridge]
