Spaceship Lyrics - Kanye West

1 '''Kanye West, Marvin Gaye, and GLC:'''

2 I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit (Yeah, yeah)

3 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly (Heavens knows) (Me too, I swear I do)

4 Past the sky (Every night, every night) (Yes, I feel you Ye, I feel you)

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

6 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly (Heavens knows)

7 Past the sky (Every night, every night)

8 '''Kanye West:'''

9 Man, man, man

10 If my manager insults me again, I will be assaulting him

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

12 Let's go back, back to the Gap, look at my check, wasn't no scratch

13 So if I stole, wasn't my fault, yeah I stole, never got caught

14 They take me to the back and pat me askin' me about some khakis

15 But let some black people walk in, I bet you they show off their token blackie

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

17 So I'm on break next to the "No Smokin'" sign with a blunt in the mall

18 Takin' my hits, writing my hits, writin' my rhymes, playin' my mind

19 This fuckin' job can't help him so I quit, y'all welcome

20 Y'all don't know my struggle, y'all can't match my hustle

21 You can't catch my hustle, you can't fathom my love

22 Dude, lock yourself in a room doing five beats a day for three summers

23 That's a Different World like Cree Summer's, I deserve to do these numbers

24 "The kid that made that deserves that Maybach"

25 So many records in my basement, I'm just waiting on my spaceship, wow

26 '''Kanye West, Tony Williams, and Marvin Gaye:'''

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

28 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly (Heavens knows)

29 Past the sky (Every night, every night)

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

31 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly (Heavens knows)

32 Past the sky (Every night, every night)

33 '''GLC:'''

34 And I didn't even try to work a job, represent the mob at the same time

35 Thirsty on the grind, Chi state of mind, lost my momma, lost my mind

36 My life, my love, that's not mine, "Why you ain't signed?" Wasn't my time

37 Leave me alone, work for y'all, half of it's yours, half of it's mine

38 Only one to ball, never one to fall, got to get mine, got to take mine

39 Got a Tec-9, reach my prime, got to make these haters respect mine

40 In the mall until twelve when my schedule had said nine

41 Putting them pants on shelves waiting patiently I ask myself

42 Where I want to go, where I want to be

43 Life is much more than running in the streets

44 Holla at Ye, hit me with the beat

45 Put me on my feet, sound so sweet

46 Yes I'm the same ol' G, same goatee, staying low key, nope

47 Holler at God, "Man why'd you have to take my folks?"

48 Hope to see Freddie G., Yusef G, love my G

49 Rolly G., police watch me smoke my weed, count my G's

50 Got a lot of people counting on me and I'm just trying to find my peace

51 Should've finished school like my niece then I finally wouldn't use my piece, blow

52 Aw man, this pressure

53 '''Kanye West, Tony Williams, and Marvin Gaye:'''

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

55 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly (Heavens knows)

56 Past the sky (Every night, every night)

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

58 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly (Heavens knows)

59 Past the sky (Every night, every night)

60 '''Consequence:'''

61 Man, you know you gon' do it

62 I remember having to take the dollar cab, coming home real late at night

63 Standing on my feet all damn day trying to make this thing right

64 And having one of my co-workers say "Yo, you look just like

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

66 Well easy come, easy go, how that saying goes

67 No more broad service, cars, and them TV shows

68 I had all that snatched from me, A&Rs and they faculties

69 All turn their back on me and didn't want to hear a rap from me

70 So naturally actually had to face things factually

71 Had to be a catastrophe with the fridges staring back at me

72 'Cause nothing's there, nothing's fair

73 I don't want to ever go back there

74 So I won't be taking no days off till my spaceship takes off

75 '''Kanye West, Tony Williams, and Marvin Gaye:'''

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

77 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly (Heavens knows)

78 Past the sky (Every night, every night)

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

80 I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly (Heavens knows)

81 Past the sky (Every night, every night)

82 '''Tony Williams:'''

83 I want to fly, I want to fly

84 I said I want my chariot to pick me up and take me, brother, for a ride

85 Heaven knows, heaven knows
