[Intro]
Gonna set You free

[Verse 1]
They know something
Some things don't matter (Set me free)
You excite me
You and time matter (Gonna set You)
You excite me
I don't find out
You excite me
**** inside now

[Refrain 1]
Why you so scared that somebody find out?
I am a flex, imagine your ex face when he find out
I am the best, you hit the top, wait 'til they find out (Set me free)
He not a threat, send him a text, put him on timeout (Set me free)

[Chorus]
Keep the flowers, send a hunnid thousand (Set me free)
Keep the flowers, send a hunnid thousand (Set me free)
Keep the flowers, I said hunnid thousand
Took you out that metro housin', drop your name on my new album (Gonna set You free)

[Refrain 2]
Your life finna change right now (Set me free)
Your life finna change right now
Balenciaga for all your friends, Hermès for the argument
Your life finna change right now (It's gonna set You free)

[Refrain 1]
Why you so scared that somebody find out?
I am a flex, imagine your ex face when he find out
I am the best, you hit the top, wait 'til they find out
He not a threat, send him a text, put him on timeout

[Refrain 2]
Your life finna change right now
Balenciaga for all your friends, Hermès for the argument
Your life finna change right now

[Verse 2]
Don't bring friends around, I wouldn't behind your back
That's the new rule, rules are rules
And not now then when, if not me then who?
You blacked out your page, went missing for days
They know you with me
You blacked out your page and switched up your boots
They know you with me
You switched up the Benz, you switched it again
I know what you need
You usually go combo, they don't even call you
They know you with me (Gonna set You free)

[Refrain 2]
Your life finna change right now (It's gonna set You free)
Your life finna change right now (Gonna set You free)

[Bridge]
Lord, take me
Lord, take me
Lord, take me where You wanna take me
Too much trauma lately, your life finna change right now (Gonna set You free)

[Refrain 2]
Your life finna change right now (Set me free)
Your life finna change right now (Gonna set You free)
Your life finna change right now (Set me free)
Your life finna change right now (Gonna set You free)

[Outro]
(Set me free)
(Gonna set You free)
(Set me free)
(Gonna set You free)

The ubiquitous Kanye West—from his famous quip, “George Bush doesn’t care about black people,” to “I'ma let you finish,” to marrying Kim Kardashian, to announcing that he’s running for President, and admitting his love for President Trump—you can see that he’s a staple of the tabloids and the entertainment world, industry-wide.

That certainly doesn’t take anything away from his music; as a matter of fact, it only seems to add to his fortuitous career. For instance, his 2010 album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, was universally praised by fans and critics alike; it was recorded during the backlash he received from the Swift interruption and during his break-up with then-girlfriend Amber Rose.

He has scored other well-known hits, as well, from each of his previous studio albums—such as “Stronger,” “Heartless,” and “Gold Digger.” Each of his albums has been massive critical and commercial successes, including his collaboration album with JAY-Z, Watch the Throne. As of 2020, West has won an astounding 21 Grammys, tied with JAY-Z as the most decorated hip-hop artist in Grammy history.
