[Kanye West]

I'm tryin to catch the beat, uh

I'm tryin to catch the beat

I'm tryin to catch the beat, uh uh, uh

I'm tryin to catch the beat



[Chorus: Kanye West]

N-now, th-th-through ya motherfuckin hands

GET EM HIGH

All the girls pass the weed to ya motherfuckin man

GET EM HIGH

Now I ain't never tell you to put down ya hands

KEEP EM HIGH

And if ya losin yo high than smoke again

KEEP EM HIGH



[Verse 1: Kanye West]

N-n-n-now, my flow

Is in the pocket like wallets, I got the bounce like hydrolics

I can't call it, I got the swerve like alchoooool-ics

My freshman year I was goin through hell, a problem

Still I, built up the nerve to drop my ass up outta collllllll-ege

My teacher said I'se a loser, I told her why don't you kill me

I give a fuck if you fail me, I'm gonna folllllllllll-ow

My heart, and if you follow the charts, to the plaques or the stacks

You ain't gotta guess who's back, you see

I'm so shy that you thought it was bashfull but this

bastard's flow will bash a skull

And I will, cut your girl like Pastor Troy

And I don't, usually smoke but pass the 'dro

And I won't, give you that money that you askin fo'

Why you think, me and Dame cool, we assholes

That's why we here your music in fast fo'

Cuz we don't wanna here that weak shit no mo'



[Chorus: Kanye West]

N-now, th-th-through ya motherfuckin hands

GET EM HIGH

All the girls pass the weed to ya motherfuckin man

GET EM HIGH

Now I ain't never tell you to put down ya hands

KEEP EM HIGH

And if ya losin yo high than smoke again

KEEP EM HIGH



[Verse 2: Kanye West]

N-n-n-n-n-now who the he
