Laura Nyro and Kanye West:
In my soul, gonna take you to the glory
Goal, in my mind I can't study war, no, no
I can't study war, no, no
I can't study war, no, no (Yeah)
I can't study war, no, no (Uh, now where the south side?)
I can't study war, no, no (Uh)
I can't study war, no, no (Uh, uh)
I can't study war, no, no (Now where the west side?)
I can't study war, no, no (Yep)
I can't study war, no, no (Uh)
Kanye West:
Can I talk my sh** again even if I don't hit again?
Dog, are you f**ing kidding? My hat, my shoes, my coat
Louis Vuitton stitch, with Donatella Versace
That's Louis Vuitton b**h
I think Hennessy, I drank, I'm gone
Off that Bacardi Limon and Corona, I'm zoning
Cla** back in session so I upped it a grade
Two years Dwayne Wayne became Dwyane Wade
And, hey, please don't start me
I'm like Gnarls Barkley meets Charles Barkley
I'm pop the Barkers, I'm hood the Parkers
While y'all was in limbo, I raised the bar up
I touched on everything
Married to the game, roc-a-chain 'stead of a wedding ring
Y'all bridesmaids catch the garter
On nights when Ye romance, cameras flash so much
That I gotta do that Yayo dance
I'm on a world tour with Common, my man
After each and every show a couple dykes in the van
It's easy, the hood love to listen to Jeezy and Weezy
And, oh yeah, Yeezy, I did it for the glory
Laura Nyro and Kanye West:
I can't study war, no, no
I can't study war, no, no (The glory)
I can't study war, no, no
I can't study war, no, no (I did it for the glory)
I can't study war, no, no
I can't study war, no, no (The glory)
I can't study war, no, no
I can't study war, no, no (Uh)
Kanye West:
What am I supposed to do now? Man, the game all messed up
How I'm suppose to stand out when everybody get dressed up?
So yeah, at the Grammys I went ultra Travolta
Yeah, that tuxedo might have been a little guido
But with my ego, I can stand there in a speedo
And be looked at like a f**ing hero
The glory, the story, the chain, the polo, the night
The grind, the empty bottles of No-Doz
Tank on empty, whipping my mama Volvo
I spent that gas money on clothes with logos
The fur is Hermes, sh** that you don't floss
The Goyard so hard man, I'm Hugo's boss
Why I gotta ask what that Tudor cost
House on the hill, two doors from Tracey Ross
And I'm asking about her girlfriends, yeah, the dark skinned ones
She asking about the speed boats yeah I admit we rented 'em
When you meet me in person what do you feel like?
I know, I know I look better in real life
I hear people compare themselves to big a lot
You know B.I.G. and Pac, you know to get it hot
I guess after I live I wanna be compared to B.I.G.
Anyone, Big Pun, Big L, or Notorious
Till then, get money and stunt and stay glorious
And I'm gonna stop k**ing these n***as soon as the chorus hit
Kanye West and Laura Nyro:
(I can't study war, no, no)
Yeah I'mma stop k**in' these n***as soon as the chorus hit
(I can't study war, no, no)
Uh, these haters be k**ing theyself they wanna come and get the glory
Laura Nyro and Kanye West:
I can't study war, no, no
I can't study war, no, no (Uh)
I can't study war, no, no (The glory)
I can't study war, no, no (Uh huh, now where the south side?)
I can't study war, no, no (Yeah)
I can't study war, no, no (Now where the west side?)
I can't study war, no, no (Yeah)
Laura Nyro:
I can't study war, no, no

I can't study war, no, no
I can't study war, no, no
