[00:01.045][Intro: Kanye West]
[00:02.788]Yeah-yeah, 9:08 L.A. time
[00:06.791]Back in the lab and shit
[00:08.787]
[00:09.286][Verse 1: Kanye West]
[00:10.043]My wife said, I can't say no to nobody
[00:13.792]And at this rate, we gon' both die broke
[00:16.554]Got friends that ask me for money knowin' I'm in debt
[00:19.292]And like my wife said, I still didn't say no
[00:22.303]People tryna say I'm goin' crazy on Twitter
[00:25.287]My friends' best advice was to stay low
[00:28.039]I guess it's hard to decipher all of the bills
[00:30.806]Especially when you got family members on payroll
[00:33.795]The media said it was outlandish spendin'
[00:36.791]The media said he's way out of control
[00:39.304]I just feel like I'm the only one not pretendin'
[00:42.293]I'm not out of control, I'm just not in their control
[00:45.038]I know I'm the most influential
[00:48.284]That TIME cover was just confirmation
[00:51.038]This generation's closest thing to Einstein
[00:53.797]So don't worry about me, I'm fine
[00:57.054]I can see a thousand years from now in real life
[00:59.544]Skate on the paradigm and shift it when I feel like
[01:02.801]Troll conventional thought, don't need to question
[01:05.545]I know it's antiquated so sometimes I get aggressive
[01:08.039]Thank God for Jay Electra, he down with the mission
[01:10.785]Did it with no permission, on our own conditions
[01:13.039]Most blacks with money have been beaten to submission
[01:16.560]Yeezy with the big house, did it way different
[01:19.546]Never listen to Hollywood producers
[01:22.295]Don't stare at money too long, it's Medusa
[01:25.300]The ultimate Gemini has survived
[01:28.052]I wasn't supposed to make it past 25
[01:30.534][Chorus: Sampha]
[01:30.789]Yeah, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
[01:33.546]Wonderin' whether God's gonna say hi
[01:36.292]Oh, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
[01:39.047]And you wonder where is God in your nightlife
[01:42.051]Yeah, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
[01:45.035](Father, Father, Father in the night sky)
[01:45.790]Wonderin' whether God's gonna say hi
[01:48.049]Yeah, I feel like I'm home, yeah, yeah
[01:50.793]
[01:53.036][Verse 2: Kanye West]
[01:53.788]I've been wakin' the spirits of millions more to come
[01:56.545]A million illegally downloaded my truth over the drums
[01:59.791]I believe in the children, listen to the kids, bro
[02:02.558]If the phone ringin', go and get your kids, ho
[02:05.299]Brother Don Muhammad told the minister about the presentation
[02:08.300]He sat back and smiled
[02:11.285]Black on black lies is worse than black on black crime
[02:14.040]The Jews share their truth on how to make a dime
[02:16.547]Most black men couldn't balance a checkbook
[02:19.795]But buy a new car, talkin' 'bout, "How my neck look?"
[02:22.550]Well, it all looks great
[02:25.785]Four hundred years later, we buyin' our own chains
[02:28.039]The light is before us brothers, so the devil workin' hard
[02:30.791]Real family stick together and see through the mirage
[02:33.784]The smokescreens, perceptions of false reality
[02:36.810]Who the real owner if your boss gets a salary?
[02:39.805]I am one with the people
[02:43.048]I am one with the people (Real!)
[02:44.792]I've been woken from enlightened man's dream
[02:48.555]Checkin' Instagram comments to crowdsource my self-esteem
[02:51.039]Let me not say too much or do too much
[02:53.790]'Cause if I'm up way too much, I'm out of touch
[02:56.795]I'm prayin' a out-of-body experience will happen
[02:59.549]So the people can see my light, now it's not just rappin'
[03:02.289]God, I have humbled myself before the court
[03:05.046]Drop my ego when confidence was my last resort
[03:08.046]I know, I know He got a plan, I know I'm on Your beams
[03:11.047]One set of footsteps, You was carryin' me
[03:13.793]When I turned on the news and they was buryin' me
[03:16.797]One set of footsteps, You was carryin' me
[03:19.799]When I was negotiatin' with Apple, it was Larry and me
[03:22.307]Told Tim Cook to call me, I was scary to see
[03:25.044]I would've took a hundred million and gave twenty to Hov
[03:27.794]I heard it's the way they did it when we only had a stove
[03:30.802]But it's better that I stayed at home with my folks
[03:33.544]'Cause if Jay a billionaire then I'ma never go broke
[03:36.547]Only thing I ask is next time I'm on stage we all go
[03:39.288]We all go
[03:42.298]Not just by myself, lookin' for niggas like where's Waldo
[03:48.297]She got the same shoes as my wife but she copped 'em at Aldo
[03:50.542]Modern-day MJ, with a off-the-wall flow
[03:53.290][Bridge: Sampha]
[03:53.536]Nightlife, walk all over me
[04:01.788]Walk all over me
[04:04.042]I'm deliverin' everything I've ever sent that you'll bring
[04:06.293]Fly, fly, fly overseas
[04:11.057]Fly overseas
[04:13.048]Oh, anywhere, everything but in between

[04:39.545][Verse 3: Sampha]
[04:39.787]Please face me when I speak
[04:41.542]Please say to me somethin' before you leave
[04:49.757]You've been treatin' me like I'm invisible, now I'm visible to you
[04:53.777]Oh, the invisible truth stay sober
[04:56.763]I can't quite understand the games you play
[04:59.765]Understand, understand, understand I'm standin' under oath
[05:04.516]And I promised I, I wouldn't fall anymore
[05:07.271]But I'm cryin' at the bar
[05:09.019]I'm wishin' that you saw my scars, man
[05:11.009]I'm wishin' that you came down here and stood by me
[05:15.014]And looked at me like you knew me
[05:19.021]But I feel so alone
[05:21.011]Like I don't know anyone except the night sky above
[05:24.774][Chorus: Sampha]
[05:25.013]Yeah, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
[05:27.755]Wonderin' whether God's gonna say hi
