T.I’s song "Swagger Like Us" features Jay-Z, Kanye West and Lil Wayne and is off of T.I’s album "Paper Trail", set for release on September 30, 2008. The chorus gets kind of annoying after a while, but I like the lyrics in between the verses. You can check out the lyrics for this song after the jump.

T.I. "Swagger Like Us" w/ Kanye West, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne Full Lyrics
(MIA sample)
No one on the corner have swagger like us
Swagger like us, swagger like us
No one on the corner have swagger like us
Swagger like us, swagger like us
No one on the corner have swagger like us
Swagger like us, swagger like us
No one on the corner have swagger like us
Swagger like us, swagger like us
[Kanye West]
Mr. West is in the building
Swagger on a hundred thousand, trillion
Ayo I know I got it first
I’m Christopher Columbus, y’all just the pilgrims
Thanksgiving do we even gotta question?
Hermes pastel I pass the dressing
My attitude is tattooed
That means permanent so I guess I should address it, huh?
My swagger is Mick Jagger
Every time I breathe on the track I asthma attack it
Why he’s so mad for? Why he gotta habit?
Cuz I slaved my whole life, now I’m the master
Na-na-na
How it feel to wake up and be the shit?
Trying to get that coke number, one over Jordan
CHORUS:
No one on the corner have swagger like us
Swagger like us, swagger like us
No one on the corner have swagger like us
Swagger like us, swagger like us
No one on the corner have swagger like us
Swagger like us, swagger like us
No one on the corner have swagger like us
Swagger like us, swagger like us
[Jay-Z]
No one on the corner try to bop like this
Can’t wear skinny jeans cuz my knots don’t fit
No one on the corner gotta pocket like this
So I rock Roc jeans cuz my knots so thick
You can learn how to dress just by jocking my fresh
Jocking jocking my fresh
Jocking jocking my fresh
Follow my steps, it’s the road to success
Where the niggas know you thorough
And the girls say yes
But I can’t teach you my swag
You can pay for school but you can’t buy class
School of hard knocks I’m a grad
And that all-blue yankee is my graduation cap,
It’s Hova, dipping different rovers whipping with the soda
Hova could you even have any doubt at the doubt it was over.
CHORUS
[Lil Wayne]
No one on the corner has swagger like moi, Church
But I’m too clean for these boys
I require what I desire I got stripes, Adidas
Mami scream papi no mas
Run up in your shit just me no moss
Runnin this shit like I got four thighs
None has swagger like this
Oh god!
When it comes to styles I got several
Sharper than a swagger, dagger all metal
And my jewelz blue and yellow
Type of shit that make ‘em call you Carmelo
Rules as follows stay true to the ghetto
Write your name on the bullet make you feel special
Ha, what the fuck you boys talking about?
I know its us cuz we the only thing you talk about
CHORUS
[TI]
You go see Weezy for the wordplay,
Jeezy for the birdplay,
Kanyeezy for diversity and me for controversy,
All my verses picture perfect and they meant to serve a purpose,
You ain’t living what you kicking and you worthless,
Looking from the surface it may seem that I got reason to be nervous
Then observe my work and see that my adversity was worth it,
Verses autobiographical, absolutely classical,
Last thing I’m worried ’bout is what another rapper do,
Ain’t nobody hot as me…
Even if they rap they ass off blast, off and have outstanding qualities,
Sell alotta records I respect and salute that,
But spitting real life on hot beats..
I’m the truth at, you kick it like me no exaggeration necessary,
Living revolutionary, nothing less than legendary,
Gangsta shit hereditary, got it from my dad
Flow colder than February with extraordinary swag
CHORUS
I like the song, but I expectd more since it’s got some of hip hop’s bigest names on it. TI killed it, Jay spit his usual with the double entendres, Kanye was slightly above subpar, and Wayne was blah. Kanye’s Kobe (not coke) number line was about Jay because Kobe is 24, which is one number above MJ’s 23 (Jay calls himself the Michael Jordan of recording) and Kanye’s trying to say he wants to be higher than Jay.
Queen dee – Yeah, I see what you mean. With a line-up like that, I was expecting to be blown out of the water.
But, really I’m going to have to look for a better source for these lyrics. The first time I read them through I had to change a lot. So, I’ll try to find more correct lyrics. Either that or I’ll just fix it how I see fit
