Kanye West：

It's after hours at that glamorous blind spot

Where they're taking it easy swapping personal experiences

Let's listen in America Today

Life of the party mhm 'til I almost cry mhm

It's the life of the party to think I could've almost died

Lord help us

André 3000：

Hey Miss Donda

You run into my mama please tell her I said "Say something"

I'm startin' to believe ain't no such thing as Heaven's trumpets

No after-over this is it done

If there's a Heaven you would think they'd let ya speak to your son

Maybe she has in the form of a baby's laugh

I heard passing by in a stroller remindin' me "Hey keep rolling"

I don't know maybe she has with a prick of a blade of grass

I've been layin' on way too long got me itchy

Got up and roamed a lil' more

Miss Donda you see my mama tell her I'm lost

You see she'd always light a cigarette we talk I would cough

Exaggeratin' a lil' bit so she get the point

Tryna get her to stop smokin' I would leave and fire up a joint

'Til I quit started back up again twenty years later

All that time y'all thought a n***a was high thought I was crazy

My mom she ain't cut no corners

Got me back on track I don't miss her overstepping

But do miss her showin' Seven civilian life s**t

Ah Miss Donda you see my mama whisper her this

The real reason I was geeked to go to church

Must confess when y'all grown-ups would be in Bible study

That girl helping me with my homework

Her and I were f**kin'

So pure and perverted so spirit spinning and dirty

So on so on and so on we hoped that no one heard us

Sh-sh ah ah

And to this day I think her mama knew but let us explore

Miss Donda you see my father please ask him why he never married

Always smiled but was he happy inside

Because I carried my mother's name did he carry shame with him

I'm sure she did it out of spite it was her decision at birth

S**t she probably was hurt ah poor baby

Two young people with different views a lot for a young lady

No coincidence they both passed away from heart conditions

There's a dissidence at play dad and mom do hard division

Three Thou' poster child for big d**k n***as raised by their mothers

I'm supposed to smile as if God knew that I would be troubled

Keeps me around for what

I don't know

But I do know that it's crucial that we do so pronto

I don't know how much long though

Kanye West/The Notorious B.I.G./Diddy：

Straight from Shibuya on some zen

We back ramped up we on ten

It's a marathon and look we comin' for the win

Just like Puff told Christopher we gon' win big

C'mon

Put the whole family on look at what my Kim did

Just like Puff told Christopher we gon' win big

Uh

We gon' win big

What

Kanye West：

Southside gang mentality way heavy

I was thinkin' out the box even in a Box Chevy

And my favorite art teacher name was Mrs. Levy

'Round the time I learned to put my feelings to a medley

The life of the party

I ain't turn in homework for like four months and I bet she let me

She saw the vision

"Yeezy you special go make your own decisions then"

Man that was a good choice faith driving us like a Rolls Royce

They tried to take my voice away I ain't try to take ya choice away

I just prayed the water break just for my daughter sake from a slip-up

Fake signatures from fake managers it all damage her good Lord

Give 'em enough of they own rope to hang 'em with

The paparazzi never really got what my angle is

They treat my married life like some type of entanglement

My neighbor still dissin' wonderin' why I ain't sayin' it

I can smell the setup that's that 2Pac in Vegas hit

I revealed myself and some don't know what to make of it

God has said himself to make sure that the baby live

And if Ye ain't here then tell me who gonna say this here

Wait a minute wait a minute wait a godd**n minute

Let me stop playing with it hopped in a Lamb' with it

Hopped in a Lamb' with it in a d**n pandemic

Know that Uncle Sam gotta have his d**n hand in it

Kanye West/The Notorious B.I.G./Diddy：

Listen straight from Shibuya on some zen

I'm on ten it's a marathon and look we comin' for the win

Just like Puff told Christopher we gon' win big

C'mon

Put the whole family on look at what my Kim did

Just like Puff told Christopher we gon' win big

Uh

We gon' win big

What

Kanye West：

Do y'all feel me

Really

Get off Scott Free I'm talking Ridley

Get off our knees that's if you're with me

Get off your knees that's if you're with me

Get off your knees and let's get free

Get off your knees and let's get free

Really I mean really

Really I mean really

I need release I don't need police

I'm like "n***a puh-lease"

Y'all can't hear me

For the real me

For the real me I mean mhmm-mm
