Mean

Written by：Kanye West/Paul McCartney

You with your words like knives

And swords and weapons that you use against me

You have knocked me off my feet again

Got me feeling like a nothing

You with your voice like nails

On a chalk board calling me out

When I'm wounded

You picking on the weaker man

You can take me down with just one single blow

But you don' t know what you don't know

Some day I'll be living in a big ole city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Some day I'll be big enough so you can t hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean

You with your switching sides

And your wildfire lies and your humilation

You have pointed out my flaws again

As if I don' t already see them

I walk with my head down tryna block you out

'Cause I'll never impress you

I just wanna feel okay again

I bet you got pushed around

Somebody made you cold

But the cycle ends right now

'Cause you can't lead me down that road

And you don't know

What you don't know

Some day I'll be living in a big ole city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Some day I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean

And I can see you years from now in a bar

Talking over a football game

With that same big loud opinion but nobody is listening

Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things

Drunk and rumbling on about how I can't sing

But all you are is mean

All you are is mean

And a liar and pathetic and alone in life

And mean and mean and mean and mean

But some day I'll be living in a big ole city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean yeah

Some day I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean

Some day I'll be living in a big ole city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Some day I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean
