They Say lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics They Say lyrics (feat. John Legend, Kanye West) [Chorus: John Legend] They say "What s happenin ?" We say the facts and if, they lie... We comin back for them They might say... but they don t know! (They say, They say...) They don t knowwwww [Verse 1: Common] They say a nigga lost his mind But in the scheme of things I never lost a rhyme The thin line between love and hatred I m the black pill in the Matrix, the saturated life They say life is what you make it So I wait quick on a spaceship so I can take it As high as the stakes get when paper get low I be tellin Derick, "Tell Kara get us a show" Little Com, I make righteous bitches get low The richest man aint necessarily the nigga wit dough They say "You ripped" "Wow..." Yea, that s what they say My niggaz couldn t tell it was me, like Jamie in Ray Paintin a day, wit focused crime, broads, and good wine They say "Dope is sour so it s homework and hood crimes" I stood mine, for forever and a day so goodbye They never could say - tell em, J [Chorus] [Verse 2: Kanye West] Ahh... The sweet taste of victory Go head and breath it in like antihistamine I know they sayin "Damn, Yay snapped wit this beat!" Fuck you expect? I ve got a history Groupie love now, gotta be them wheels! Haters back down, gotta be that steel! I know they cant wait till ya outta ya deal! Look how they did D Angelo ask em how do it feel! My best friends worry bout me Cause they know when you famous/fame-ass And you had made cash the media aims at us and you be up so high if you ever fall off, it feel like a plane crash But God don t ever give me nothin I cant handle So please don t ever give me records I cant sample So I could vacate where it aint no channels but it s quite ok for a gangsta to wear sandals They say because of the fame and stardom I m somewhere in between the church and insane asylum I guess it s messin with my health then And this verse so crazy when I finish I m just gon check myself in - again [Chorus] [Kanye West:] "Uh!" (hey!) [Verse 3: Common] They say "Dude think he righteous" I write just to free minds, from Stoney to Rikers Amongst the lifeless, in a world crazy as Mike is On my paper, whether its weed or Isis They say "life is a game," so I play hard Writin for my life cause I m scared of a day job They say "Sef kept the hood together" I tell the young, "We can t play the hood forever" Play my cards right, they say I went to left They showed me strange love, like I was Mr. F Played chess in this game of, pawns and knights Now I claim "King" like Don, or Frank White They say my life is comparable to Christ s The way I sacrificed, and resurrected, twice They say "The crochet pants and the sweater was wack" Seen "The Corner", now they say "That nigga s back," uh... [Chorus] song lyrics
