I'm telling you all when it all falls down [2x]
13
(Oh when it all)
14
[Verse 1 - Kanye West]
15
Man I promise, she's so self conscious
16
She has no idea what she's doing in college
17
That major that she majored in don't make no money
18
But she won't drop out, her parents will look at her funny
19
Now, tell me that ain't insecure
20
The concept of school seems so secure
21
Sophomore three years aint picked a career
22
She like fuck it, I'll just stay down here and do hair
23
Cause that's enough money to buy her a few pairs of new Airs
24
Cause her baby daddy don't really care
25
She's so precious with the peer pressure
26
Couldn't afford a car so she named her daughter Alexus (a Lexus)
27
She had hair so long that it looked like weave
28
Then she cut it all off now she look like Eve
29
And she be dealing with some issues that you can't believe
30
Single black female addicted to retail and well
31
[Chorus (with Kanye ad-libs)]
32
[Kanye West]
33
Uh, and when it falls down who you gon' call now?
34
C'mon c'mon, and when it fall's down

[Syleena Johnson]
36
Oh when it all, it all falls down
37
I'm telling you all when it all falls down.

[Verse - Kanye West]
40
Man I promise, I'm so self conscious
41
That's why you always see me with at least one of my watches
42
Rollies and Pasha's they done drove me crazy
43
I can't even pronounce nothing, pass that versace!
44
Then I spent 400 bucks on this
45
Just to be like nigga you ain't up on this!
46
And I can't even go to the grocery store
47
Without some ones that's clean and a shirt with a team
48
It seems we living the American dream
49
But the people highest up got the lowest self esteem
50
The prettiest people do the ugliest things
51
For the road to riches and diamond rings
52
We shine because they hate us, floss cause they degrade us
53
We trying to buy back our 40 acres
54
And for that paper, look how low we a'stoop
55
Even if you in a Benz, you still a nigga in a coupe
56
[Chorus (with Kanye ad-libs)]
57
[Kanye West]
58
Uh, and when it falls down who you gon' call now?
59
C'mon c'mon, and when it fall's down
60
[Syleena Johnson]
61
Oh when it all, it all falls down
62
I'm telling you all when it all falls down.
63
(Oh when it all)
64
[Verse - Kanye West]
65
I say fuck the police, that's how I treat em
66
We buy our way out of jail, but we can't buy freedom
67
We'll buy a lot of clothes but we don't really need em
68
The things we buy to cover up what's inside
69
Cause they made us hate ourself and love they wealth
70
That's why shorties holler, "Where the ballers at?"
71
Drug dealers buy Jordans, crackheads buy crack
72
But the white man get paid off of all a dat
73
But I ain't even gon act holier than thou
74
Cause fuck it, I went to Jacob with 25 thou
75
Before I had a house and I'd do it again
76
Cause I wanna be on 106 and Park pushing a Benz
77
I wanna act ballerific like it's all terrific
78
I got a couple past due bills, I won't get specific
79
I got a problem with spending before I get it
80
We all self conscious I'm just the first to admit it
81
[Chorus - to fade (with Kanye ad-libs)]
82
[Kanye West]
83
Uh, and when it falls down who you gon' call now?
84
C'mon c'mon, and when it fall's down,
85
South side, south side,
86
We gon' set this party off right,
87
West side, west side,
88
We gon' set this party off right.
89
Chi-Town, Chi-Town,
90
We gon' show em how we get down.
91
Hustling ain't easy, it's like a safe belt,
92
Save my life, c'mon.
93
[Syleena Johnson]
94
Oh when it all, it all falls down
95
I'm telling you all when it all falls down.
