See You In My Nightmares Lyrics
[Kanye West]
I'm cold (Yeah), I'm cold (Yeah), I'm cold (Yeah)
[Lil Wayne]
I got the right to put up a fight
but not quite cause you cut off my light
But my sight is better tonight and I might
see you in my nightmare, oh how did you get there
cause we were once a fairytale
But this is farewell.
[Kanye West]
I got my life and its my only one
I got the night, I'm running from the sun
So goodnight, I made it out the door door door door door
After tonight, there will be no return
After tonight, I'm taking off on the road
I'm taking off on the road
And that you know
Tell everybody that you know
That I don't love you no more
And that's one thing that you know
That you know...
Okay I'm back up on my grind
You do you and I'm just gone do mine
You do you, cause I'm just gon' be fine
Okay I got you out my mind
The night is young, the drinks is cold
The stars is out, I'm ready to go
You always thought I was always wrong
Well now you know...
Tell everybody everybody that you know
Tell everybody that you know
That I don't love you no more
And that's one thing that you know
That you know
[Lil Wayne]
I got the right to put up a fight
but not quite cause you cut off my light
But my sight is better tonight and I might
see you in my nightmare, oh but how did you get there
cause we were once a fairytale
But this is farewell
Baby girl I'm finished
I thought we were committed
I thought we were cemented
How I thought we meant it
Now we just repenting
Now we just resenting
The clouds in my vision
Look how high that I be getting
And it`s all because of you
Girl we through
You think your shit don`t stink but you are Mrs. P.U.
And I don`t see you with me no more
Now tell everybody that you know
That you know
[Kanye West]
That you know
Tell everybody that you know
That I don`t love you no more
And that`s one thing that you know
That you know
That you know
Tell everybody that you know
That I don`t love you no more
And that`s one thing that you know
That you know...
I'm cold (Yeah), I'm cold (Yeah), I'm cold (Yeah)
I got the right to put up a fight
but not quite cause you cut off my light
But my sight is better tonight and I might
see you in my nightmare, oh how did you get there

But this is farewell.
I got my life and its my only one
I got the night, I'm running from the sun
So goodnight, I made it out the door door door door door
After tonight, there will be no return
After tonight, I'm taking off on the road
I'm taking off on the road
Tell everybody that you know
That I don't love you no more

Damn good track from the new album....really self-explanative lyrics here.
easily the best song from the new album. a lot of people are saying that kanye is trying to be all pop and that 808s sucks. kanye said that he doesnt care what people think of the new album cuz he is very proud of it. thats why kanye is the fuckin man!!
Best song on the new album. i'm loving the new sound of Kanye. As the previous poster stated, this song is self-explanitory.
this is the story of my life
Great song. Self explanatory. This is after a pretty sad break-up and well..."OK, I got you out my mind".
This song is one of the best Kanye has ever made in my opinion.Probabley the best album he made 808s & Heartbreak is so awesome. Well the lyrics are like most people are saying self-explanitory.
This is just what I think it´s about; [Kanye West] I'm cold (Yeah), I'm cold (Yeah), I'm cold <Yeah> (He still wants to be cold)
[Lil Wayne] I got the right to put up a fight but not quite cause you cut off my light (He feels like he does things wrong when she’s around and he is annoyed of feeling that) But my sight is better tonight and I might see you in my nightmare, oh how did you get there (He wants to battle with her in his mind, in his nightmare, ´cause he feels like she represents the light and he is getting annoyed that he likes her so much) cause we were once a fairytale (He didn’t realize what feelings could come to him as he began to like her) But this is farewell. (But a part of him wants to leave her because he is afraid that she will win)
[Kanye West] I got my life and its my only one (He feels like she open wounds within him, because she knows several things, so he wants to go away from her) I got the night, I'm running from the sun (He wants to run from her) So goodnight, I made it out the door door door door door After tonight, there will be no return After tonight, I'm taking off on the road I'm taking off on the road (He feels like he wants to win over her no matter what, because he feels so sad if everything he believed in will fall apart)
And that you know Tell everybody that you know That I don't love you no more And that's one thing that you know That you know... (He tries not to love her, and he tries not to let her affect him with all her love and knowledge to him)
Okay I'm back up on my grind You do you and I'm just gone do mine (He wants them to go separate ways so he doesn’t have to be reminded that the things he do is wrong) You do you, cause I'm just gon' be fine (He tries to convince himself that he is going to be fine without her) Okay I got you out my mind The night is young, the drinks is cold The stars is out, I'm ready to go (He wants her out of his mind so he can live the way he usually does, out late at night, drinking and partying) You always thought I was always wrong (He is hurt that she thinks that he does things wrong ´cause he wants to be right for her) Well now you know... Tell everybody everybody that you know Tell everybody that you know That I don't love you no more And that's one thing that you know That you know (He tries not to love her, and he tries not to let her affect him with all her love and knowledge to him)
[Lil Wayne] I got the right to put up a fight but not quite cause you cut off my light (He feels like he does things wrong when she’s around and he is annoyed of feeling that) But my sight is better tonight and I might see you in my nightmare, oh but how did you get there (He wants to battle with her in his mind, in his nightmare, ´cause he feels like she represents the light and he is getting annoyed that he likes her so much) cause we were once a fairytale (He didn’t realize what feelings could come to him as he began to like her) But this is farewell (But a part of him wants to leave her because he is afraid that she will win)
Baby girl I'm finished I thought we were committed I thought we were cemented How I thought we meant it Now we just repenting Now we just resenting The clouds in my vision Look how high that I be getting And it
s all because of you Girl we through You think your shit dont stink but you are Mrs. P.U. And I don`t see you with me no more (He feels so hurt that she knows some stuff that he’s hiding for everyone, because he wants to be perfect in front of her, and when she sees through him he feels rather stupid for being revealed) Now tell everybody that you know That you know[Kanye West] That you know Tell everybody that you know That I don
t love you no more And thats one thing that you know That you know That you know Tell everybody that you know That I dont love you no more And thats one thing that you know That you know... (He tries not to love her, and he tries not to let her affect him with all her love and knowledge to him)I think nearly all lyrics from this album, especially this one, is about the girl he loves in Love lockdown. What do you think? I could be wrong, though...
I think it is something that he is saying to himself in his head, just to force himself think that he doesn't love her anymore (because there seems to be no other way to forger her).
Just came home after going out, got totally wasted, with last strength he lies into his bed, and as he is wating for sleep to come, his thoughts are with her, he is so mad that he is thinking about her and knowing that he'll definitely dream of her because of this pisses him off even more. He'll probably dream about some imaginary fights with her, he pictures himself screaming at her face in his mind. Kanye sings the calmer parts (problably him before going out, getting ready to start forgetting here and accomplishing the exact opposite) and the plain angry and unreasonably mad screaming "Tell everybody...". He is exausted. And thats where Lil John sings, with his "I got the right", he is the more reasonable voice in Kanyes head.
