Kanye West：

Tell me if you know someone that needs
Jesus Lord

Now we've been through a lot of things

Tell me if you know someone that needs
Jesus Lord

He lives in a lot of things

Tell me if you know someone that needs
Jesus Lord

Been through a lot of things

Tell me if you know someone that needs
Jesus Lord

Sittin' by myself I'm just thinkin'

About all I've been through I wish I was dreamin'
Man it's hard to be an angel when you surrounded by demons
I watched so many people leave
I see 'em change by the season that's mama's seasonin'
God got you the devil's watchin' he just peekin' in
I know I madе a promise that I'd never let the reaper in
But lately I've been losin' all my deepest friends
And lately I've been swimmin' on the deepest end

It's just d**gs it ain't no hugs it ain't no love there
You been down so much you don't even know what's upstairs

Suicidal thoughts got you wonderin' what's up there

And while I introduce the party you say it's up there
Too many pills so much potions so much pain too many emotions

And everything that you do good it just go unnoticed

Did He tell you that you good and just stay focused

Mama you was the life of the party

I swear you brought life to the party

When you lost your life it took the life out the party

That woman rode with me like a Harley

Visions of my cousins in a cell really scarred me

Movin' to the hood was like signin' up for the army
'Cause they been killin' **** since **** was watchin' Barney
You want dreams to come true
But I have nightmares

'Cause if that come to life then I might not be right here
Been in the dark so long don't know if the light here
But I'm just reaching for the stars like Buzz Lightyear
And now I'm lightyears ahead of those nightmares
I deaded those night terrors when the night clears

And if I talk to Christ can I bring my mother back to life
And if I die tonight will I see her in the afterlife
But back to reality where everything's a tragedy
You better have a strategy or you could be a statistic
Little boy dies he's just one of the mystic
And mama steady crying 'cause she really the victim
And she's getting high and she's getting addicted
And her older boy just stuck with the picture painted vivid
That's a family portrait and her daughter just absorbed it

Sixteen pregnant baby daddy say she should abort it
But we can't afford it so she decides to move forward
Baby shower time father didn't show up

Now she just feeling nauseous like she finna throw up
The water flows down her legs yeah it's finna go up

A year done went by her daughter just turned one

And she's still dependent on her mom

Big brother in the streets he went and bought him a gun
He want revenge 'cause the pain feelin' numb

And her mom still doing d**gs 'cause that's the only time she feel loved
Is it real love
Do the scars really heal up
From all the pain that done built up but they don't feel us

A week done flew by big bro ridin' then he see the guys
Left his little brother on the side bleeding from the side
He seein' red it's like he's bleeding through his eyes
To see him dead the only thing that'll help the grieving up inside

Even let him get the last meal

He done with the streets after this this his last kill

He gotta show him that it's that real

He ran up on him with the pipe like "**** stand still"

"You took my brother life you made my mother cry"

"Tell me one reason I shouldn't send you up to Christ"
He said "Go 'head take my life I've seen everything but Christ"

Then big bro just blacked out and all you seen was the light
Jesus Lord

Tell me if you know someone that needs
Jesus Lord

Now we've been through a lot of things

Tell me if you know someone that needs
Jesus Lord

He lives in a lot of things

Tell me if you know someone that needs
Jesus Lord

Been through a lot of things

Tell me if you know someone that needs

Jesus Lord
Jay Electronica：

Uh-huh in the name of the true and living God the beneficent the merciful
Thank you for bringing me up the rough side of the mountain like Ertuğrul
Every knee bowed and every tongue confessed and paid homage
To the monk who visited Rothschilds like Thelonious did Pannonica
It's Jay Elec-entendre-nica comin' through your monitor
Back from the great beyond like the Son of Man or the Son of Donda
I never rolled the GSXR or the R6 or the Honda
But I flew my Ducati through North America like Wakanda
Earthquakes will strike this nation for what Bush did to Rwanda
What the Clintons did to Haiti and Downing Street did to Ghana
In Tepoztlán they call me Terremoto El Negro Loco
I shake the tectonic plates of the game if I lay one vocal
The God is interstellar while you fellas remain local
My bars is like the pyramid temples of Pacal Votan
As sure as the DOJ confirmed Ezekiel's Wheel
I could change the world like Yacub with two pieces of steel
My sword and my microphone I swore to the Christ's throne
But when you great they wanna say you took a L José Castillo
I'm in the fight here fight here for what seemed like lightyears
My rugged cross and thorny crowns squeeze out Christ tears
Thirty pieces of silver clout my Pierre price tier
It's a war outside it's a war outside
It's like the last days of Sodom and Gomorrah outside

Larry Hoover Jr./Kanye West：
What up
Ye

This Larry Hoover Jr

First and foremost

I wanna thank you for taking the fight for my father to the Oval Office

You might not have been the only one that could've did that
But you were the one that did do that

And with your assistance
We can continue to let the world take part in this fight

You know to me it kinda feels like
Me my mother my brothers and my kids

Have all been incarcerated through this journey

And we haven't even been to jail

We have been looked at and treated as criminals

For being a part of this family
My father's truth and the reality that he raised me in
Is that he wanted to make a change in this community
'Cause the conditions in this capitalist society is what made him
And it is what made the children of today

After twenty-five years of bein' locked down twenty-three and one
My father has not called any shots from one of the most secure
And segregated prisons in the world
And will not once released call any shots for the Gangster Disciples
If my father's intentions were to lead us to death destruction

Into the Hell that he has had to live in for the past twenty-six years

Man he would be dead to me

I didn't sign up for that

I didn't stay on this journey this long for that

All my life man

I've been waitin' for my father to come home

They told me when I graduate eighth grade he would be home

Then they told me when I graduate from high school he would be home

I went away to Morris Brown I graduated and he still ain't home

Now I'm a adult and my daughter went away to college and graduated

He still not home

Now even more than that my son he graduated eighth grade and we still waitin'

Matter of fact he hasn't hugged kissed or touched any of his grandchildren

And they haven't been able to touch they grandfather
Even though it is not seen that way for some of us

But for many of us Larry Hoover is a beacon of hope for his community

Who deserves to breathe free air

Free my father

Mr. Larry Hoover Sr.

Lord
