Kanye West - New Slaves (Single) Lyrics
[Verse 1]My Momma was raised in an era when,Clean water was only served to the fairer skinDoing clothes you would have thought I had helpBut they wasn't satisfied unless I picked the cotton myself.You see its broke nigga racismThat's that "Don't touch anything in the store"And this rich nigga racismThat's that "Come here, please buy more"What you want a Bentley, fur coat and diamond chain?All you blacks want all the same thingsUsed to only be niggas now everybody plainSpending everything on Alexander WangNew SlavesWe used to be only niggas[Bridge x2]You see it's leaders and there's followersBut I'd rather be a dick than a swallower[Verse 2]I throw these Maybach keysI wear my heart on the sleeveI know that we the new slavesI see the blood on the leavesI see the blood on the leavesI see the blood on the leavesI know that we the new slavesI see the blood on the leavesThey throwing hate at meWant me to stay at ease***** you and your corporationY'all niggas can't control meI know that we the new slavesI know that we the new slavesI'm about to wild the ***** outI'm going Bobby BoucherI know that ***** ain't freeYou niggas *****, ain't meY'all throwing contracts at meYou know that niggas can't readThrow on some Maybach keys***** it, c'est la vieI know that we the new slavesY'all niggas can't ***** with meY'all niggas can't ***** with YeY'all niggas can't ***** with YeI'll move my family out the countrySo you can't see where I staySo go and grab the reportersSo I can smash their recordersSee they'll confuse us with some bullshit like the New World OrderMeanwhile the DEATeamed up with the CCAThey tryna lock niggas upThey tryna make new slavesSee that's that private owned prisonGet your piece todayProlly all in the HamptonsBraggin' 'bout their maid***** you and your Hampton houseI'll ***** your Hampton spouseCame on her Hampton blouseAnd in her Hampton mouthY'all 'bout to turn shit upI'm 'bout to tear shit downI'm 'bout to air shit outNow what the ***** they gon' say now?[Outro: Frank Ocean]I can't get too high, get too high thenSo long, so long, so longCannot find faith, [?] babyI can't [?]I can't believe in another loverI won't believe in the [?]Think you can't get too high, get too highToo high againToo high
