Kanye West - Flashing Lights (Live From VH1 Storytellers) lyrics

Let's go, let's go, let's [Verse 1] She don't believe in shooting stars But she believe in shoes and cars Wood floors in the new apartment Couture from the store's department You more like "love to start sh**" I'm more of the trips to Florida Ordered the hors d'oeuvres, views of the water Straight from a page of your favorite author And the weather so breezy Man, why can't life always be this easy? She in the mirror dancing so sleazy I get a call like, "Where are you Yeezy?" And try to hit you with the ol-wu-wopte 'til I got flashed by the paparazzi Damn, these n***as got me I hate these n***as more than a Nazi [Hook] As I recall I know you love to show off But I never thought that you would take it this far What do I know? (Flashing lights) [Verse 2] I know it's been a while sweetheart We hardly talk, I was doing my thang I know it was foul, baby Aye babe, lately, you've been all on my brain And if somebody woulda told me a month ago Fronting though: yo, I wouldn't wanna know If somebody woulda told me a year ago It'll go get this difficult Feeling like Katrina with no F.E.M.A Like Martin with no Gina Like a flight with no visa First cla** with the seat back, I still see ya In my past, you on the other side of the gla** Of my memory's museum I'm just saying, hey Mona Lisa come home You know you can't roam without Caesar [Hook x2] You know, I'm ‘sposed to talk about what some of these songs mean And some of the stuff is so personal to me And some of the things I've been through is so real In the form that I'm ‘sposed to break down certain things And this is one of the first times, because I feel like I'm placed in front of the audience right now And uhm, certain things are just hard for me to talk about And I'm sorry VH1 for that But it uhm, certain things are too serious And I stand before you, just a human being trying to improve under the microscope Just the star of the Truman show As every day I take as calculated Every time I put on my shoes Under the flashing lights Just got an email today A new book coming out Doctor Adams: the Truth about Donda West What the media doesn't want you to know And you know, now that my momma pa**ed Would she really want me to put myself in a situation where I go to jail? FOR KILLING ‘EM Under the flashing lights And the public perception Where I feel like I'm always in defense of myself And I realize that I've made some mistakes, but I grow from them It's like I'm fighting to be me, but I have to leave the fight ‘Cause it helps everyone else be who they wanna be That's a story for your a**…
