Anything Lyrics (feat. Consequence & Patti LaBelle)

[Kanye West]

I mean wow. You know? Man

Lookin' out my loft windows man my dreams became true

Lookin' at the mirror, wondering if it's the same dude

Lookin' at my closet wondering if it's all about clothes

Look right next to me, wondering if it's all about

Hop in the car and asked the OnStar where this life goes

And I drive so fast I blur the light post

They say Drive Slow, I say "I know"

Then errrr, away I go

And the way I flew

In this year or two

I know this is what God put me here to do

But in this excitement

You just might miss

A shorty with a demo like "Hey, you might like this"

And see

He

Remind me of me

Just a year ago

Now he

Tellin' me

I'm his her-ro-oh

I took his CD and asked him what he's lookin' for

He said, "Man, I don't know. Maybe a miracle"

[Patti Labelle]

Time, they say (true story, [kanye west])

There ain't no way

Your dreams are gone see the light of day

Don't believe

That you can't achieve

Whatever you're after

You can't be swayed

By the simple minds

That wanna hold you down

And in his time

When you

Get with

We'll be not far behind

[Hook: Patti Labelle]

If you listen to the sermons

And ask the Lord for guidance

You will see the many blessings (blessings you have received)

When you give Him all the glory (glory)

Gonna talk to, don't ignore thee (ignore thee)

Listen to all the stories

You can do anything

[Consequence]

Look at my injured arm

My shoulder I know he's been warning me

To stay out the clubs where the police and warrants be

Cause that will lead to prison where the inmates and wardens be

But a lot of times we follow them when we know we ought to leave

And stay up in the party when we know that we ought to leave

But the women be callin' me

The liquor be callin' me

Bitches be Cons, took a stripper named Diamond

If he gonna be conflicted no different than diamonds

And the Lord is the only one that he can confide in

So I don't know how you think that you could deny Him

I open up the Book and the message is clear

But I still be in the hood so the pressure is there

To grab at that fast money just to get out of Queens

To bag up the work that they give out to fiends

But that ain't gonna work if I say what I mean

Cause at the end of the day I'm trying to Get Out My Dreams
