"MAMA'S FAVORITE" lyrics
Ye (Kanye West) Lyrics
I'm gettin' late, I'm gettin' away
Sing if you want to, ah-ah-ah
You know you're playin' with your own
(I'm gettin' late, I'm gettin' away)
Only child, mama's favorite (Sing if you want to, ah-ah-ah)
Conditions that I made it out, it's amazin' (You know you're playin' with your own)
Goin' through cycles, different phases
I'm tryna see how far I can take it (I'm gettin' late, I'm gettin' away)
Stay misunderstood, I'm often mistaken (Sing if you want to, ah-ah-ah)
I put in the work, it was back breakin' (You know you're playin' with your own)
They thought I was kiddin', thought I was playin'
Take this one to Mars like I'm Matt Damon (I'm gettin' late, I'm gettin' away)
They say I go off 'cause I lack patience (Sing if you want to, ah-ah-ah)
Don't think it's my job for me to explain it (You know you're playin' with your own)
Bomb on everything, tryna play us
Bomb on everything (I'm gettin' late, I'm gettin' away)
I drop a bomb on everything (Sing if you want to, ah-ah-ah)
On my wife, I put a wedding ring (You know you're playin' with your own)
All my life, I gave up everything (Say what? Say what?)
Yes, I gave up everything (Say what? Say what?)
God know about everything (Say what? Say what?)
Drop a bomb on everything
Drop a bomb on everything (Nigga, what?)
Yeah (Say what?)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (What?)
Yeah
For your life, I'd give up everything
Alright, alright, that's good, Kanye
This is so exciting, isn't it? I love it
Yeah, can you believe it?
I can believe it the way you are
Somebody got it, though, you play tracks like Michael Jordan shoots free throws
Anybody does something that much and that long and is that good, it's gotta pay off
Can't go up there and do nothing but go off
Yeah
Isn't that, son?
Yeah
The main thing is getting to do something that you really love to do
So do you, do you think, do you think I come off too arrogant?
No, come off just right 'cause it's what's inside because you can't be a star and not be a star
You gotta have some oomph about you
Don't wanna just go say, "Oh, I'm just really not all that, but thank you anyway"
Nothing like that, I'm not saying come off like that
I think the way you are handling yourself is really just perfect
Sing if you want to, ah-ah-ah
You know you're playin' with your own
(I'm gettin' late, I'm gettin' away)
Only child, mama's favorite (Sing if you want to, ah-ah-ah)
Conditions that I made it out, it's amazin' (You know you're playin' with your own)
