Put On
kanye west (feat. Young Jeezy) Lyrics

I put on, I put on, I put on, I put on
I represent my city to the fullest extent and I am proud of it.

When they see me off in traffic, they say 'Jeezy on some other shit'
People recognize and acknowledge my success and status.

Send them pussy niggas runnin' straight back to the dealership
When people see me, they realize their own inadequacy and are intimidated by my presence.

Me I'm in my spaceship, thats right I work for N.a.s.a
I am so successful that I am out of this world, like a NASA astronaut.

This 7H is not a fraud, call that bitch my bodyguard
My car is not fake, and I see it as a symbol of protection.

Call that bitch your bodyguard? Yeah, that's my bodyguard
I see my car as my protector, and it provides me with a sense of security.

Wear a lot of jewelry, Young don't do security
I wear expensive jewelry and rely on my own reputation and power for security.

What's whiter than a napkin, harder than a dinner plate
I have something that is both pure and valuable, like an expensive white napkin, and strong and durable, like a dinner plate.

If you want it come and get it, you know I stay super straight
I am confident in my abilities and challenge anyone who doubts me to try and take what I have.

Ran up in my spots and now I'm workin' Out the Super 8
People who tried to rob me in the past have only made me more successful, and I am now beyond their reach.

Know you niggas hungry, come and get a super plate
I am wealthy and successful and can provide for others.

Y'all sing happy birthday, yeah I got that super cake
I have everything and anything that I want, including a cake that is so extravagant it is dubbed 'super'.

Hundred karat bracelet, I use it like some super bait
My very expensive jewelry acts as both a symbol of my success and a way to attract others to me.

Half bag, top back, Ain't nothin' but a young thug
I am a young and successful person who is not afraid to show it off.

HKs, AK's, I need to join a gun club
I am armed and have a lot of guns to protect myself.

Big wheels, big straps, You know I like it super sized
I have expensive cars with large wheels and large guns because I like to show off my wealth and power.

Passenger's a red-bone, Her Weave look like some curly fries
I have a beautiful woman with me who is light-skinned and has curly hair that resembles curly fries.

Inside fish sticks, outside tartar sauce
I am living a life of luxury where I can have expensive and exotic foods like fish sticks with a traditional condiment like tartar sauce.

Pocket full of celery, Imagine what she tellin' me
I have a lot of money in my pocket and women are constantly trying to get with me because of it.

Blowin' on asparagus, The realest shit I ever smoked
I am so rich and successful that I can afford to smoke expensive and exotic things, like asparagus, and it is the best experience ever.

Ridin' to that Trap or Die, The realest shit I ever wrote
My music is a reflection of my life and experiences, and it is the most authentic and genuine expression I can give.

They know I got that broccoli, So I keep that glock on me
People know that I am wealthy and successful, so I have to always be prepared for those who may want to take what I have.

Don't get caught without one, Comin' from where I'm from
Growing up where I did, I know that it is important to always be prepared and protect myself because people will try to harm me.

Call me Jeezy Hamilton, Flyin' down Campbellton
I am a successful person, like Alexander Hamilton, flying down the busy street of Campbellton.

So fresh, so clean, On my way to Charlene
I am well-dressed and looking sharp, on my way to a meeting or event with a woman named Charlene.

I feel like there's still niggas that owe me checks
People still owe me money and I am not happy about it.

I feel like there's still bitches that owe me sex
Women still owe me something and I feel entitled to it.

I feel like this but niggas don't know the stress
People don't understand the stress and pressure that comes with being successful.

I lost the only girl in the world that know me best
I lost the one person who really knew me and understood me.

I got the money and the fame and that don't mean shit
Despite my money and fame, I am not completely happy or fulfilled.

I got the Jesus on a chain, man that don't mean shit
Even though I wear a religious symbol on my chain, it doesn't give me any sense of peace or fulfillment.

Cause when the Jesus pieces can't bring me peace
Even though I wear Jesus on my chain, it doesn't provide me with any inner peace or happiness.

Sure I need just at least one of Russell's nieces on
I believe that if I can have a relationship with someone from the famous Russell family, it will bring me some sense of happiness or fulfillment.

I let my nightmares go I put on, Everybody that I knew from the go
I try to forget about my fears and worries by showing off my success to everyone I know from the beginning of my life.

I know hoes that was frontin' when they knew he was broke
I know women who pretended to like me when I was poor and unsuccessful, but now they want to be with me because of my success.

They say damn, Yeezy Yeezy, you don't know us no more
People accuse me of changing and forgetting about them since becoming successful.

You got that big fame homie, and you just changed on me
People feel like I have changed since becoming famous and that I don't care about my old friends anymore.

You can ask big homie, man the top so lonely
Even though I am at the top of my game, it can be a lonely and isolating experience.

I ain't lyin', so lonely I ain't lyin'
I am not exaggerating or lying when I say that being at the top is a lonely place.

Let me see what we have tonight (what we have tonight)
I am ready to see what kind of success and experiences tonight brings.

I'm high as a satellite (satellite)
I am feeling really good and high, like a satellite orbiting above the earth.

I see those flashin' lights (flashin' lights)
I am constantly surrounded by flashing lights and paparazzi, due to my fame and success.

Cause every night (every night) I put on
I show off my wealth and success every night, putting on a display for everyone to see.
