Kanye West
Paper Models
(Hook)
I got the world in my hands, the master plan
But I don’t know why I keep calling, why I keep
All of these girls at my shows, they loving me
But I don’t know why I keep calling, why I keep calling you

(Refrain)
All the models to the floor right now
All the models to the floor right now, what, huh?
All the models to the floor right now
All the models to the floor right now

Calling all the models to the floor like we're statistics
The dreamers amongst y'all would think to ride this dick
But even paper models have got a little depth
There's far more to life than money, drugs and sex
Look beyond the surface, I dare you, you'll find proof
What makes her mind tick, why she acts so aloof
Simple. Here's the one common truth:
She's more into your body and soul than your roof
Give a little credit or you'll end up paying dues
Give everything you've got while you've nothing to lose
When it comes to life, live and love without regrets
More time accruing interests, less time accruing debts
When the final pain is due, you'll pay it with pride
Knowing whatever cupid threw, you took it in stride
As you approach the end, she's there by your side
You look in her eyes knowing, she was there die or ride

(Hook)

Got the world in my hands, but I just keep calling
Put my feelings on the line, emotionally all-in
It could've been different if you'd just stopped stalling
Instead we're divided, like Icarus I'm falling
Like Fawkes I'm rising, devising advices
Despising downsizes and revising analyses
That take you far from the truth, with wrong emphasises
Til history's rewritten, no matter what it comprises
There's a temptation to bury, but I'd rather just cherish
This is character building, this is food for the spirit
Life's too short to wait for it to perish
I'm glad I'm honest, even when you don't hear it

(Hook)

Take every chance like it's the last you'll ever get
You can hardly call it living if you live with regret
No fear to change approach like I changed the beat
Your only way up is with your own two feet
Don't journey alone on your way to the peak
We're all in this together, Troy Bolton speak
Work hard, play harder, on your way through the climb
Even if you fail, let's enjoy our prime

(Hook)
