[Intro: Rihanna & Kanye West]

Man, I can understand how it might be

Kinda hard to love a girl like me

I don't blame you much for wanting to be free

I just wanted you to know

Woo, woo

Swizz told me let the beat rock (Oh)

Oh

[Verse 1: Kanye West & Swizz Beatz]

For all my Southside niggas that know me best

I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex

Why? I made that bitch famous (Goddamn)

I made that bitch famous

For all the girls that got dick from Kanye West

If you see 'em in the streets, give 'em Kanye's best

Why? They mad they ain't famous (Goddamn)

They mad they still nameless (Talk that talk, man)

Her man in the store tryna try his best

But he just can't seem to get Kanye fresh

But we still hood famous (Goddamn)

Yeah, we still hood famous

[Chorus: Rihanna & Swizz Beatz]

I just wanted you to know

I've loved you better than your own kin did

From the very start

I don't blame you much for wanting to be free

Wake up, Mr. West! Oh, he's up!

I just wanted you to know

[Verse 2: Kanye West & Swizz Beatz]

I be Puerto Rican day parade floatin'

That Benz Marina Del Rey coastin'

She in school to be a real estate agent

Last month, I helped her with the car payment

Young and we alive, whoo!

We never gonna die, whoo!

I just copped a jet to fly over personal debt

Put one up in the sky

The sun is in my eyes, whoo!

Woke up and felt the vibe, whoo!

No matter how hard they try, whoo!

We never gonna die

[Chorus: Rihanna & Swizz Beatz]

I just wanted you to know

Get 'em!

[Bridge: Sister Nancy & Swizz Beatz]

From the very start

I don't blame you much for wanting to be free

I just wanted you to know
