Kanye Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I have never wished on hope
Didn't need a telescope
To see where I am going
I have never been the one
Trying hard to hold my tongue
It's my stereo and
[Pre-Chorus]
One day, I'll stand with a crown on my head like a god
Yeah, like a God
With every step, no, I won't second guess what I want
[Chorus]
I wanna be like Kanye
I'll be the King of me always
Do what I want, I'll have it my way all day
Like Kanye, yeah, yeah-yeah
[Post-Chorus]
Like Kanye, Kanye
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
[Drop]
I'll be the king of me
[Verse 2]
Born in broken home, okay
Single mama let me chase
What I was made for
We made out the paradise
Built on nickels, rubbing dimes
I'ma turn it to so much more
[Pre-Chorus]
One day, I'll stand with a crown on my head like a god
Yeah, like a God
With every step, no, I won't second guess what I want
[Chorus]
I wanna be like Kanye
I'll be the King of me always
Do what I want, I'll have it my way all day
Like Kanye, yeah, yeah-yeah
[Drop]
I'll be the king of me, me, me, me, me
I'll be the king of me, me, me, me
Like Kanye, Kanye
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
[Bridge]
I have never wished on hope
Didn't need a telescope
To see where I am going
I have never been the one
Trying hard to hold my tongue
It's my stereo and
[Chorus]
I wanna be like Kanye
Do what I want, I'll have it my way
I wanna be like Kanye
[Drop]
I'll be the king of me, me, me, me, me
I'll be the king of me, me, me, me
Like Kanye, Kanye
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
