[Kanye West]All of the lights

all of the lights

all of the lights

all of the lights



[Drake]aaaaaalright it's on

I grew up thinking I was wrong

and always said that if they let me in the b-tch

I'd do some damage

I might be out of mind

but if I am it's just in time

because I got the extra nation so you f-cking understand it man

I'm already show you n-gga what I



[Kanye West]Something wrong

I hold my head

MJ gone,that n-gga dead!

I slapped my girl, she called the feds

I did that time and spent that bread

I'm heading home, I'm almost there

I'm on my way, heading up the stairs

to my surprise, a n-gga replacing me

I had to take em to that ghetto university



[Chorus]all of the lights

lights, flash lights, spot lights

strobe lights, street lights

all of the lights

all of the lights

flash lights, strobe lights

thug lights, rock lights

stripper lights

(all of the lights)



[Kanye West]Restraining order

can't see my daughter

her mother, brother, grandmother hate me in that order

public visitation

we met at Borders

told her she take me back

I'll be more supportive

I made mistakes

I bump my head

courts suck me dry

I spent that bread

she need a daddy

baby please, can't let her grow up in that ghetto university
