Kanye West - Back to Basics lyrics

[Kanye West] Uh, Uh Lets take it back to basics When sh** gets worse we converse How we need a New Balance before the lines get crossed like Asics Just look at what we got, if we don't shoot the Reeboks This is a beat that no flow can detox So the respect is due like my Louie back I don't wanna have to check you I'm as Chi as buck-fifty's and Pelle Pelle Leathers Some say, my beats made the Bulls play better I say, black on black is the hate that hate made Sara Lee with the dough I'm talkin' bout the cake maid McDonalds with the flow, served over over a billion You've seen the video, words over the building Uh, I wish I could give you this feeling, I wish I could give you this feeling And when The Workout Plan ain't work out man Me and Common is back on the corners again On the corner [Common] Uh, yeah Uh, yeah I open my eyes The corner is like African tribes The black is subsidized The black enterprize The pa**ion arise The youth fantasize, who got some cash in they eyes If youth dies, mamas askin' rationalize Tryna' build a spot where ghetto ba*tards can rise The ghetto has been ba*tardized by those who capitalize Wonder if its a plan that the master devised To bring his people to a land where the blacks are despised On the corner
