Kanye West Lyrics

Album: College Dropout

Spaceship Lyrics

(feat. GLC, Consequence)

 [Hook: GLC]

 I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

 I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

 

 [Verse 1: Kanye West]

 Man, man, man

 If my manager insults me again I will be assaulting him

 After I fuck the manager up then I'm gonna shorten the register up

 Let's go back, back to the Gap

 Look at my check, wasn't no scratch

 So if I stole, wasn't my fault

 Yeah I stole, never got caught

 They take me to the back and pat me

 Askin' me about some khakis

 But let some black people walk in

 I bet they show off their token blackie

 Oh now they love Kanye, let's put him all in the front of the store

 Saw him on break next to the 'No Smoking' sign with a blunt and a Mall'

 Takin' my hits, writin' my hits

 Writin' my rhymes, playin' my mind

 This fuckin' job can't help him

 So I quit, y'all welcome

 Y'all don't know my struggle

 Y'all can't match my hustle

 You can't catch my hustle

 You can't fathom my love dude

 Lock yourself in a room doin' five beats a day for three summers

 That's a different world like Kree Summers

 I deserve to do these numbers

 The kid that made that deserves that Maybach

 So many records in my basement

 I'm just waitin' on my spaceship, blaow

 

 [Hook: GLC]

 I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

 I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

 

 [Verse 2: Consequence]

 Man, I'm talkin' way past the sky

 Let's go, yeah

 And I didn't even try to work a job

 Represent the mob

 At the same time thirsty on the grind

 Chi state of mind

 Lost my momma, lost my mind

 +My life, my love+ that's not mine

 Why you ain't signed?

 Wasn't my time

 Leave me alone, work for y'all

 Half of it's yours, half of it's mine

 Only one to ball

 Never one to fall

 Gotta get mine

 Gotta take mine

 Got a tech nine

 Reach my prime

 Gotta make these haters respect mine

 In the mall 'til 12 when my schedule wore headset nine

 Puttin' known ass on shelves

 Waitin' paitently I ask myself

 Where I wanna go, where I wanna be

 Life is much more than runnin' in the streets

 Holla at 'ye, hit me with the beat

 Put me on my feet

 Sound so sweet

 Yes I'm the same ol' G, same goatee

 Stayin' low key, nope

 Holler at God "Man why'd you had to take my folks?"

 Hope to see Freddy G., Yusef G

 Love my G, Rolly G

 Police watch me smoke my weed, count my G's

 Got a lot of people countin' on me

 And I'm just tryin' to find my peace

 Should of finished school like my niece

 Then I wouldn't finally wouldn't use my piece, blaow

 Aw man, all this pressure

 

 [Hook: GLC]

 I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

 I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

 

 [Verse 3: Consequence]

 I remember havin' to take the dollar cab

 Comin' home real late at night

 Standin' on my feet all damn day

 Tryin' to make this thing right

 And havin' one of my co-workers say "Yo you look just like

 This kid I seen in the old Busta Rhymes video the other night"

 Well easy come, easy go

 How that sayin' goes

 No more broad service, cars, and them TV shows

 I all had that snatched from me

 And all the faculties all turn their back on me

 And didn't wanna hear a rap from me

 So naturally actually had to face things factually

 Had to be a catastrophe with the fridgest starin' back at me

 Cuz nothing's there, nothing's fair

 I don't wanna ever go back there

 So I won't be takin' no days off 'til my spaceship takes off

 

 [Hook: GLC]

 I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

 I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit

 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

 

 [Outro: GLC]

 I wanna fly, I wanna fly

 I said I want my chariot to pick me up

 And take me brother for a ride
