Song Lyrics:

[Big Sean:]

They used to tell me, used to tell me

I hope you learn to make it on your own

And if you love yourself just know you'll never be alone

I hope that you get everything you want and that you chose

I hope that it's the realest thing that you ever know

Hope you get the pretty girls, that's pretty at everything

Million dollar cribs havin' million dollar dreams

And when you get it all just remember one thing

Remember one thing

That one man could change the world

That one man could change the world

All I, all I wanted was a hundred million dollars and a bad chick

Imagined this so much, some nights it felt like that I had it

Back on the mattress

Starin' at the ceilin' tryna connect the dots

But it's hard makin' those attachments

I'm talkin' dreamin' so hard, some nights it felt like draft day, you know?

My, my step brother used to flip them bags outside the crib like it was trash day, no Kim K, but he bagged ye ye

But when you're getting fast money, slow down, don't crash

With all the drive in the world, swear you still need gas

Look, think about it, close your eyes, dream about it

Tell your team about it, go make million dollar schemes about it

Success is on the way, I feel it in the distance

Used to look up at the stars and be like ain't too much that's different

I be shinin', they be shinin', get your one shot don't you miss it

What you know 'bout wakin' up every day like you on a mission?

And I

[Kanye West:]

I hope you learn to make it on your own

And if you love yourself just know you'll never be alone

I hope that you get everything you want and that you chose

I hope that it's the realest thing that you ever know

Hope you get the pretty girls, that's pretty at everything

Million dollar cribs havin' million dollar dreams

And when you get it all just remember one thing

Remember one thing

One man could change the world

One man could change the world

[Big Sean:]

My grandma told me, "If you write your name in stone you'll never get the white out."

I grinded out that black hole then performed up at the White House

Standin' next to Jim Carrey, we traded stories then laughed

I said you not the only one I know got rich wearin' masks

Where I'm from I swear they're broke, they need way more than the cast

We need more than what you have and then we need more than that

But how am I supposed to say I'm tired

If that girl from West Virginia came up in conditions that I couldn't survive

Went to war, came back alive

On top of that became a female black captain

When being black you had to extra extra try

Way before James Brown made us proud

She bought a crib on the same street as Marvin Gaye right there on Outer Drive

And she taught me how to drive

And she raised the kids, then the kids' kids, and she did it right

Taught me how to love, taught me not to cry

When I die, I hope you teach me how to fly

All my life you've been that angel in disguise sayin'

[John Legend:]

I hope you learn to make it on your own

And if you love yourself just know you'll never be alone

I hope that you get everything you want and that you chose

I hope that it's the realest thing that you ever know

Hope you get the pretty girls, that's pretty at everything

Million dollar cribs havin' million dollar dreams

And when you get it all just remember one thing

Remember one thing

That one man can change the world

That one man can change the world

[Grandma:] Thank you for callin' me, been thinkin' about me

[Big Sean:] It's all good I love you grandma

[Grandma:] Bye
