[Intro: Kanye West with Ariana Grande & Donda West]
Forever, ever
Can you hear me? Yeah
Forever, ever
[Intro: Kanye West with Ariana Grande & Donda West]
Forever, ever
Can you hear me? Yeah
Forever, ever
Forever, forever, no
Glorious, glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory, glory
It feels good to be home
And to all of you, I thank you so much for your support
For your support of me for so many years
And more importantly, for the work you continue to do
What did he want me to talk about?
Well, he said something that was a little bit dangerous
He told me I could talk about anything I wanted to
And you know, I am my son's mother
The man I described in the introduction is being so decidedly different, my son (Everytime)
And what made the project extra special to me is
I got a chance to share not only what he has meant to me
But what he has meant to a generation (Today's the time)
As one writer said, we came from somewhere
Not just from the wombs of our mothers and the seeds of our fathers
But from a long line of generations who came before us
[Chorus: The World Famous Tony Williams]
Is the kingdom (Is the kingdom)
And the power (And the power)
And the glory (And the glory)
Forever? (Forever)
Is the kingdom (Is the kingdom)
And the power (And the power)
And the glory (And the glory)
Forever? (Forever)
[Outro: Kanye West with Ariana Grande & Donda West]
Forever, yeah
Forever, yeah
Forever, forever, no, oh, yeah
Glorious, glory, glory, glory
What did I teach him? (Glory)
And why Kanye ain't scared?
[Removed Verse: Kanye West & Pusha T]
I'd rather deal with the shame than take the weight of the lie
Every time we talk I just wait for the lies
Every time I get the food, I just wait for the flies
Look, just send your prayers up, they'll be waitin' in the sky
My, my, my, Miss American Pie
Was a hero after Katrina but that levee went dry
Mom met my dad back in '75
Two years later, the chosen has arrived
Holy, Holy, Holy Father
Hold me in an ocean worth of Holy Water
And David's slingshot, hope it throws you farther
You brought church to stadiums built for only soccer
When the world built on lies, the truth is a threat
Faith over the fortune, it kept you outta debt
It's snakes in money pits that you ain't found yet
Crooks behind the scene like, "He ain't drown yet?"
Rain bills from the ranch 'til the whole town wet
God's grace rains down, that's the holy fountain
Got twelve thousand acres full of holy mountains
See, you almost didn't make it, who are you without Him?
Holy, Holy, Holy Father, hold me in a ocean the size of Holy Water
Man, if plan A worked, you wouldn't know your daughter
For every tear you cried in South Carolina
[Chorus: The World Famous Tony Williams]
Is the kingdom (Is the kingdom)
And the power (And the power)
And the glory (And the glory)
Forever? (Forever)
Is the kingdom (Is the kingdom)
And the power (And the power)
And the glory (And the glory)
Forever? (Forever)
[Intro: Kanye West med Ariana Grande & Donda West]
Evigt og altid
Kan du høre mig? Ja
Evigt og altid
For evigt, for evigt, nej
Strålende, herlighed, herlighed, herlighed
Ære, Ære, Ære, Ære
Det føles godt at være hjemme
Og til jer alle takker jeg så meget for din støtte
Til din støtte fra mig i så mange år
Og endnu vigtigere, for det arbejde, du fortsætter med at gøre
Hvad ville han have mig til at tale om?
Nå sagde han noget, der var lidt farligt
Han fortalte mig, at jeg kunne tale om noget, jeg ønskede at
Og du ved, jeg er min søns mor
Den mand, jeg beskrev i introduktionen, er så bestemt anderledes, min søn (everytime)
Og hvad gjorde projektet ekstra specielt til mig er
Jeg fik en chance for at dele ikke kun hvad han har betydet for mig
Men hvad han har betydet for en generation (dagens tid)
Som en forfatter sagde, kom vi fra et sted
Ikke kun fra mødres mødre og vores fædres frø
Men fra en lang række generationer, der kom for os
[Chorus: Den verdensberømte Tony Williams]
Er riget (er kongeriget)
Og strømmen (og strømmen)
Og herlighed (og herlighed)
For evigt? (For evigt)
Er riget (er kongeriget)
Og strømmen (og strømmen)
Og herlighed (og herlighed)
For evigt? (For evigt)
[Outro: Kanye West med Ariana Grande & Donda West]
For evigt, ja
For evigt, ja
For evigt, for evigt, nej, åh, ja
Strålende, herlighed, herlighed, herlighed
Hvad lærte jeg ham? (Ære)
Og hvorfor Kanye er ikke bange?
[Fjernet vers: Kanye West & Pusha T]
Jeg vil hellere håndtere skammen end at tage vægten af løgnen
Hver gang vi snakker, venter jeg bare på løgne
Hver gang jeg får maden, venter jeg bare på fluerne
Se, bare send dine bønner op, de vil vente i himlen
Min, min, min, savner amerikanske tærte
Var en helt efter Katrina, men at Levee gik tør
Mor mødte min far tilbage i '75
To år senere er den valgte ankommet
Hellige, Hellige, Hellige Fader
Hold mig i et ocean værd af helligt vand
Og Davids Sludshot, håber det kaster dig længere
Du bragte kirke til stadioner bygget til kun fodbold
Når verden bygget på løgne, er sandheden en trussel
Tro over formue, det holdt dig ud af gælden
Det er slanger i penge pits, som du ikke er fundet endnu
Skurke bag scenen som, "han er ikke druknet endnu?"
Regnregninger fra ranchen 'til hele byen våd
Guds nåde regner ned, det er den hellige springvand
Fik tolv tusinde hektar fuld af hellige bjerge
Se, du gjorde det næsten ikke, hvem er du uden ham?
Hellige, Hellige, Hellige Fader, hold mig i et havs størrelse Helligvand
Mand, hvis plan en arbejdede, ville du ikke kende din datter
For hver tåre græd du i South Carolina
[Chorus: Den verdensberømte Tony Williams]
Er riget (er kongeriget)
Og strømmen (og strømmen)
Og herlighed (og herlighed)
For evigt? (For evigt)
Er riget (er kongeriget)
Og strømmen (og strømmen)
Og herlighed (og herlighed)
For evigt? (For evigt)
