Believe What I Say (Demo)
[Intro: Lauryn Hill]
Yo, yo (Check our situation)
My men and my women
(Yo) Yo, yo (Check our situation)
My men and my wom–

[Verse 1: Kanye West & Lauryn Hill]
You need somethin' unexpected (Yo, Yo), some form of weapon
You ask him to feel protected (Yo, Yo), and still feel protected
Just one time for the record (Yo, Yo), just one time for the record
Don't agree with the message (Yo, Yo), don't agree with the methods

[Chorus: Kanye West, Kanye West with Steve Lacy & Kanye West with STALONE]
Don't let, don't let the lifestyle, uh, let ah
We'll let them know when the last time you made the love
One last sparkle to follow in my light (Right on)
One last sparkle to follow

[Verse 2: Kanye West & SAINt JHN]

[Bridge: Buju Banton]
Now here we are
You know I'm not about it
Showed you my all
I let you into my thoughts
[Chorus: Kanye West, Kanye West with Steve Lacy & Kanye West with STALONE]
Don't let, don't let the lifestyle, uh, let ah
We'll let them know when the last time you made the love
One last sparkle to follow in my light
One last sparkle to follow in my light
One last sparkle to follow in my light
One last sparkle to follow

[Interlude: Buju Banton]
Okay, I didn't throw a fit when you said you wanted to leave
I told you I loved you, but you didn't believe
You were too easily fooled, so easily deceived
By some dude who's more rather into greed
Played by your emotions, you were swamped by your needs
Told me, I didn't believe, you said I was out to deceive, ahaha
You said that I lie, how did I? I told you everything, didn't I?
But you just could not believe, man, I'm so peeved
Your friends all up in your head even when we're in bed
Your mind's elsewhere, and you say you care? Haha
I'm laughin' at you all, you think you got me? No, no
My back ain't against the wall (The wall, the wall, the wall, the wall, the wall)
