[Verse 1: Kanye West]
Out of the body, uh, jury has got him, um
Serious society, my spirit is Godly
I’m buildin' a buildin’ where children can lobby
So we can make billions from buildin' a hobby
I really find pride in just being a pilot
I'm runnin' for presi’, um, "deez nuts" on the ballot, yeah
Bein' exotic, my genes is robotic
They bought us like slaves and uh, sold us like product
I bought a factory, pickin' the cotton
Bought a factory, sent 'em to college
He made it already with nothin' to lose
And free attitude with nothin' to prove
We goin' crazy, I got the juice
Playin' them dead to get out the noose
I don't read your point-of-views
I can't hear you at this altitude
And they steady sayin' that I'm brute
I be rude if I don't come beat the shit out you

In the night, serenity all in the city (Oh)
Oh, it's always lovely in your company
Leave me alone in the night when I'm all in the city

[Chorus: Desiigner, Ty Dolla $ign, & 070 Shake]
In the sky, yeah, in the sky, yeah, sky, yeah

Ooh, we're building in the sky
A brand new world for you and I (Ayy, oh)
Let the angels in me fly (Oh)
Oh, I hope I never fall weary
Help me levitate my pain (Ooh)
Oh, good heaven, sing to me, to me (Ooh)
Let me outsoar my faith
Let me outlast the shame (Ooh)
At the same time, don't change a thing, a thing

[Outro: Jeremih]
Ooh-ooh-ooh

Kanye West

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.
