REMOTE
Kanye West Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They my only fans
I was in my hovercraft, had another laugh
How you roll with them? When you know I'm him
Got it on remote control
Got it on remote control
Got it on remote control, like a CEO
I thought you should know
On my Instagram, it get outta hand
Why you so mad?
He got it on remote control like a CEO
Feelin' like the man, feelin' like the man
I was in my hovercraft, floating down the path
God just grabbed my hand, had a bigger plan
He got this on remote control
He got it on remote control
'Trol
Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa
I just, uh, I owe you a load
I live on the Titanic (oh), I can rock your boat
Just hoppin' out the brand new Rolls (skrrt, skrrt)
Hoppin' out the brand new Rolls (skrrt, skrrt)
Jesus sent me brand new clothes (skrrt, skrrt)
Wrist still thirty-two below (yeah)
I want my mob ties to shine (hah)
I could caress your mind with the right time (time)
Don't you give your love up, this is the right sign (sign), sign (yeah)
I treat you lovely and righteous and kind (hah)
And we'll be lasting with one another until we die (yeah)
I'd give you kids at the drop of a dime (dime)
Oh-whoa, told the b-, fold my clothes (fold my clothes)
Take it to the light like a strobe (yeah)
Taking me to court like O (taking me to court like OJ)
Paparazzi sleep at my door
I just thought that you should know (sleep at my door)
I get frozen like the North Pole
Don't you freeze up on the pole
He got this on remote control like a sink in gold
He got it, no fight, no more meds, twilight in the game
He got it on my hovercraft, have another laugh
Pop on a handstand, twilight in demand
He got it on remote control
He got it on remote control
He got it on remote control, like that's to know
Should know
"Ooh, ha-ha-ha, mmh, splendid
Simply delicious, oh, ha-ha-ha
I am the Glob-glo-gab-galab
The shwabble-dabble-wabble-gabble flibba blabba blab"
In the first verse of "Remote Control," Kanye West talks about how his fans are the only people he cares about and the only ones that matter to him. He describes being in his hovercraft, which could symbolize him being above everyone else or living a luxurious lifestyle. He questions why someone would choose to associate themselves with other people when they already know he is the one they really want to be with. He then repeats how he has it all on remote control, comparing himself to a CEO in charge of his own life.
In the second verse, Kanye talks about how his Instagram has gotten out of hand and he questions why people are so angry with him. He repeats that he has it all on remote control and feels like the man. He then adds the image of God grabbing his hand and having a bigger plan, which could represent how Kanye feels like his success is a divine plan. He ends the verse by repeating the same line about having it all on remote control.
At the end of the song, there is a random sample of a song called "The Globglogabgalab," which has no known connection to the rest of the song. It is unclear why Kanye chose to include this sample or how it relates to the rest of the track.

I like that the Globglogabgalab is collabing with lesser known artists. It shows how humble he is.
