She don't believe in shootin' stars

But she believe in shoes and cars

Straight from a page of your favorite author

And the weather so breezy

She in the mirror dancin' so sleazy

I get a call like, "Where are you, Yeezy?"

And try to hit you with the ol-wu-wopte

Damn, these niggas got me

I know it was foul, baby

Aye, babe, lately, you've been all on my brain

And if somebody woulda told me a month ago

Frontin', though, yo, I wouldn't wanna know

If somebody woulda told me a year ago

It'll go get this difficult

Feelin' like Katrina with no FEMA

Like Martin with no Gina

Like a flight with no Visa

First class with the seat back, I still see ya

Of my memory's museum
