You might think you’ve peeped the scene
You haven’t, the real one’s far too mean

from Kanye West – Dark Fantasy Lyrics on Rap Genius

Meaning

Nicki’s intro is a thuggification of children’s author Roald Dahl’s take on Cinderella in his book Revolting Rhymes:

I guess you think you know this story.
You don’t. The real one’s much more gory.
The phoney one, the one you know,
Was cooked up years and years ago,
And made to sound all soft and sappy
Just to keep the children happy

Suggesting that the herd has turned against Kanye like a pack of youths. The public doesn’t know what really goes on behind the scenes
