Everything I Got Lyrics - Graduation - Kanye West

Oh oh ohoo. 

damn, here we go again. 

Oh oh ohoo. 

Common passed on this beat, i made it to a jam, 

now everything im not, made me everything i am. 

damn, here we go again. 

people talkin shit, but when the shit hit the fan 

everything i'm not, made me everything i am. 

I never be picture-perfect-Beyonce 

Be light as Albi or black as Chauncey 

Remember him from Blackstreet 

He was as black as the street was 

I'll never be laid back as his beat was 

I never could see why people'll reach a 

Fake-ass facad they couldn't keep up 

Y'see how I creeped up? 

Y'see how I played a big role in Chicago like Queen Latifah? 

I never rock a mink coat in the winter time like Killa Cam 

Or rock some mink boots in the summertime like will.i.am 

Let me know if you feel it man 

Cause everything I'm not, made me everything I am

Damn, here we go again. 

everybody sayin' what's not for him 

everything I'm not, made me everything I am 

damn, here we go again. 

people talk shit, but when shit hits the fan 

everything I'm not, made me everything I am 

and i'm back to tear it up 

haters, start your engines 

I hear 'em gearin' up 

people talk so much shit about me at barbershops 

they forget to get their haircut 

okay fair enough, the streets is flarin' up 

cause they want gun-talk, or I don't wear enough 

baggy clothes, Reebok's, or A-di-dos 

can I add that he do spaz out at his shows 

so say goodbye to the NAACP award 

goodbye to the In-di-a Arie award 

they'd rather give me the nigga-please award 

but I'll just take the I-got-alotta-cheese award

damn, here we go again. 

everything I'm not, made me everything I am 

damn, here we go again. 

people talk shit, but when shit hits the fan 

everything I'm not, made me everything I am 

I know that people wouldn't usually rap this 

but I got the facts to back this 

just last year, Chicago had over 600 caskets 

man, killin's some wack shit 

oh, I forgot, 'cept for when nigga's is rappin' 

do you know what it feel like when people is passin'? 

he got changed over his chains, a block off Ashlamd 

I need to talk to somebody, pastor 

the church want time, so I can't afford to pay 

the slip on the door, cause I can't afford to stay 

my 15 seconds up, but I got more to say 

That's enough Mr. West, please no more today 

damn, here we go again. 

everybody sayin' what's not for him 

everything I'm not, made me everything I am 

damn, here we go again. 

people talk shit, but when shit hits the fan
