Kanye West - Could've Been Somebody Lyrics
[Intro: Billie Holiday]Strange fruit hanging from the poplar treesBlood on the leaves[Verse 1]I just wanna clear my mind nowIt's been racin' since the summertimeAnd I'm holdin' down the summer nowAnd all I want is what I can't buy nowCause I ain't got the money on me right nowAnd I told you to waitYeah I told you to waitSo I'mma need a little more time nowCause I ain't got the money on me right nowAnd I thought you could waitYeah and I thought you could waitThese *****es surroundin' meAll want somethin' out meThen they talk about meWould be lost without meWe could've been somebodyThought you'd be different 'bout itNow I know you naughtySo let's get on with it[Hook 1]You could've been somebody'Stead you had to tell somebodyLet's take it back to the first partyWhen you tried your first mollyIt came out of your bodyIt came out of your bodyRunning ***** down the lobbyAnd you was screamin' that you love meBefore the limelight tore yahBefore the love life stole yahRemember we were so youngWell now we're olderBefore [?]I know there ain't wrong with me[Bridge]Something strange is happening[Hook 2]We could've been somethin'We could've ugh, We could've been somebodyOr was it all our first partyWhen we tried our first mollyIt came out of our bodyIt came out of our body[?]Before they call lawyersBefore they tried to destroy usHow you gon' lie to reporters?[?]I gotta bring it back to the 'Nolia***** them other niggas cause I'm down for my niggas***** them other niggas cause I'm down for my niggas***** them other niggas cause I'm down for my niggasI'll ride for my niggas, I'll die for my niggasTo all my second string *****es, trying to get a babyTrying to get a baby, now you call me crazyI don't give a damn if you used to talk to Jay-ZHe ain't with you, [?] Beyonce, you need to stop actin' lazyShe Instagram herself like "Bad ***** alert"He Instagram his watch like "Mad ***** alert"He only wanna see that ass in reverseTwo thousand dollar bag of cash in your purseNow you say [?][?]'Til death do you partUnholy matrimony
