Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Uh, you see
I go by the name of Kan the Louis Vuitton Don
I want my home girl
Who need to hook me up with some of her home girls
Yeah, Janet Jackson
We back, baby
[Verse 2]
So many said we'd never know love like this
But they never felt your kiss
And how good your touch could be so
Many a days I face the pressure to walk away
From what the people say
But you mean so much to me so
[Verse 3]
These butterflies, they never lie
Been through so much pain before
I had to try 'cause you're not like most guys
And I ain't ashamed to say that you're my
[Verse 4]
Don't matter what they say, baby
They just don't know my baby
And how I feel 'bout you
Don't matter what they say, baby
I won't let go my baby
And how I feel 'bout you
[Verse 5]
When you look in my eyes
I wish you could read my mind
And know how I feel inside
And hear what they say about you
[Verse 6]
Just because they can't see
You're more than enough for me
Why can't they just let this be?
And leave us alone
[Verse 7]
These butterflies, they never lie
Been through so much pain before and
I had to try cause you're not like most guys
And I ain't ashamed that's why you are my
[Verse 8]
Don't matter what they say, baby
They just don't know my baby
And how I feel 'bout you
Don't matter what they say, baby
I won't let go my baby
And how I feel 'bout you
[Verse 9]
Don't matter what they say baby
They just don't know my baby
And how I feel 'bout you
Don't matter what they say baby
I won't let go my baby
And how I feel 'bout you
[Verse 10]
I go by the name Kanye Omari
And I wrote this just to say, I'm sorry
I have foreign cars and houses
I have porno stars and spouses
You try and stab one like Jack the Ripper
I was tryin' to stab two like Jack the Tripper
My **** Tone been locked for a minute
He come home, he from the street
He gonna want us some strippers
And I'm a big tipper, I don't need to be tripping
This my first real Rolex, it don't even be tickin'
This my first pair of earrings I can wear in the shower
Without them clouding up in a half a hour
So that basically mean my paper getting mean
Basically mean I'm into better things
I was a addict of cheating but I stopped for sure
You a addict, you go with Janet Jackson, you cured
[Verse 11]
Don't matter what they say, baby
They just don't know my baby
And how I feel 'bout you
Don't matter what they say, baby
I won't let go my baby
And how I feel 'bout you
[Verse 12]
Don't matter what they say, baby
They just don't know my baby
And how I feel 'bout you
Don't matter what they say, baby
I won't let go my baby
And how I feel 'bout you
