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)
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)
[Verse 1: Kanye West]
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 (Jesus)
I watched so many people leave (Lord)
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 made a promise that I'd never let the reaper in (Jesus)
But lately, I've been losin' all my deepest friends (Lord)
And lately, I've been swimmin' on the deepest end
It's just drugs, it ain't no hugs, it ain't no love there
You been down so much you don't even know what's upstairs (Jesus)
Suicidal thoughts got you wonderin' what's up there (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
Did He tell you that you good and just stay focused? (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
That woman rode with me like a Harley (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
You want dreams to come true? But I have nightmares (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
And now I'm lightyears ahead of those nightmares (Lord)
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? (Jesus)
But back to reality, where everything's a tragedy (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
And she's getting high and she's getting addicted (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
But we can't afford it, so she decides to move forward (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
A year done went by, her daughter just turned one (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
And her mom still doing drugs 'cause that's the only time she feel loved (Lord)
Is it real love? Do the scars really heal up?
From all the pain that done built up, but they don't feel us (Jesus)
A week done flew by, big bro ridin' then he see the guys (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
Even let him get the last meal
He done with the streets after this, this his last kill (Lord)
He gotta show him that it's that real
He ran up on him with the pipe like, "****, stand still" (Jesus)
You took my brother life, you made my mother cry (Lord)
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)
[Chorus: Kanye West]
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
[Verse 2: Jay Electronica]
Uh-huh, in the name of the true and living God, the beneficent, the merciful (Hallelujah)
Thank you for bringing me up the rough side of the mountain like Ertuğrul (Jesus)
Every knee bowed and every tongue confessed and paid homage (Lord)
To the monk who visited Rothschilds like Thelonious did Pannonica (Shoo)
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? (Jesus)
I never rolled the GSXR or the R6 or the Honda (Lord)
But I flew my Ducati through North America like Wakanda
Earthquakes will strike this nation for what Bush did to Rwanda (Facts)
What the Clintons did to Haiti and Downing Street did to Ghana (Jesus)
In Tenochtitlan, they call me Terremoto, El Negro Loco (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
As sure as the DOJ confirmed Ezekiel's Wheel (Lord)
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 Castille (Jesus)
I'm in the fight here, fight here for what seemed like lightyears (Lord)
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 (Jesus)
It's like the last days of Sodom and Gomorrah outside (Lord)
[Chorus: 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)
[Outro: 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 (Tell me if you know someone that needs)
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 (Jesus), Mr. Larry Hoover Sr. (Lord)
Fortæl mig, om du kender nogen, der har brug for (Jesus, Herre)
Nu har vi været igennem en masse ting
Fortæl mig, om du kender nogen, der har brug for (Jesus, Herre)
Han bor i mange ting
Fortæl mig, om du kender nogen, der har brug for (Jesus, Herre)
Har været igennem en masse ting
Fortæl mig, om du kender nogen, der har brug for (Jesus, Herre)
[Vers 1: Kanye West]
Sittin 'af mig selv, jeg tænker bare på'
Om alt jeg har været igennem, jeg ville ønske jeg var Dreamin '
Mand, det er svært at være en engel, når du omringet af dæmoner (Jesus)
Jeg så så mange mennesker forlade (herre)
Jeg ser dem forandring efter sæsonen, det er mama sæsonin '
Gud fik dig, djævelens vagt, han kigger bare i
Jeg ved, at jeg lavede et løfte om, at jeg aldrig ville lade Reaper in (Jesus)
Men i det seneste har jeg været losin 'alle mine dybeste venner (Lord)
Og i det seneste har jeg været swimmin 'på den dybeste ende
Det er bare narkotika, det er ikke nogen kram, det er ikke nogen kærlighed der
Du har været nede så meget, du ved ikke engang, hvad der er ovenpå (Jesus)
Selvmordstanker fik dig vidunder i, hvad der er derovre (Lord)
Og mens jeg introducerer festen, siger du, at det er deroppe
For mange piller, så meget potions, så meget smerte, for mange følelser
Og alt hvad du gør godt, det går bare ubemærket (Jesus)
Har han fortalt dig det godt og bare forblive fokuseret? (Herre)
Mama, du var partiets liv
Jeg sværger, at du bragte liv til festen
Da du mistede dit liv, tog det livet ud af festen (Jesus)
Den kvinde redede med mig som en Harley (Lord)
Visioner af mine fætre i en celle virkelig scarred mig
Movin 'til hætten var som signin' op for hæren
Fordi de har været Killin '**** siden **** var Watchin' Barney (Jesus)
Vil du have drømme til at gå i opfyldelse? Men jeg har mareridt (Lord)
Fordi hvis det kommer til liv, så kan jeg ikke være lige her
Været i mørket så længe, ved ikke, om lyset her
Men jeg når bare for stjernerne som Buzz Lightyear (Jesus)
Og nu er jeg lette foran disse mareridt (Lord)
Jeg døde de natters frygter, da natten rydder
Og hvis jeg snakker med Kristus, kan jeg bringe min mor tilbage til livet?
Og hvis jeg dør i aften, vil jeg se hende i efterlivet? (Jesus)
Men tilbage til virkeligheden, hvor alt er en tragedie (Lord)
Du har bedre en strategi, eller du kan være en statistik
Lille dreng dør, han er bare en af mystikken
Og Mama stabilt græder 'fordi hun virkelig er offeret (Jesus)
Og hun bliver høj, og hun bliver afhængig (herre)
Og hendes ældre dreng lige fast med billedet, malede levende
Det er et familieportræt, og hendes datter absorberede bare det
Seksten, gravid, baby far siger, at hun skulle afbryde det (Jesus)
Men vi har ikke råd til det, så hun beslutter sig for at bevæge sig fremad (Herre)
Baby shower tid, far viste ikke op
Nu føler hun bare kvalm, som om hun finder at kaste op
Vandet strømmer ned i benene, ja, det er finna gå op (Jesus)
Et år gjort gik forbi, hendes datter vendte netop en (Lord)
Og hun er stadig afhængig af hendes mor
Storebror i gaderne, han gik og købte ham en pistol
Han vil hævne "forårsage smerten, følelsesnummen (Jesus)
Og hendes mor gør stadig narkotika, fordi det er den eneste gang, hun føler sig elsket (Lord)
Er det ægte kærlighed? Gør arene virkelig helbredt?
Fra al den smerte, der gjorde opbygget, men de føler ikke os (Jesus)
En uge gjort fløj af, Big Bro Ridin 'så ser han gutterne (Herre)
Forlod sin lillebror på siden, blødning fra siden
Han ser rødt, det er som om han blødning gennem hans øjne
For at se ham død, det eneste, der hjælper med at sørge op indeni (Jesus)
Selv lad ham få det sidste måltid
Han gjorde med gaderne efter dette, dette hans sidste dræbte (herre)
Han skal vise ham, at det er så reelt
Han løb op på ham med røret som "****, stå stille" (Jesus)
Du tog min bror liv, du gjorde min mor cry (lord)
Fortæl mig en grund til, at jeg ikke skulle sende dig op til Kristus
Han sagde: "Gå hovedet, tag mit liv, jeg har set alt andet end Kristus"
Så stor bro bare blacked ud og alt du set var lyset (Jesus, Herre)
[Chorus: Kanye West]
Fortæl mig, om du kender nogen, der har brug for (Jesus, Herre)
[Vers 2: Jay Electronica]
Uh-huh, i navnet på den sande og levende Gud, den gavnlige, den barmhjertige (Hallelujah)
Tak for at bringe mig op på den hårde side af bjerget som Ertuğrul (Jesus)
Hvert knæ bøjede og hver tunge tilstod og betalt hyldest (Lord)
Til munken, der besøgte rothschilds som tålmodige pannonica (shoo)
Det er Jay Elec-Entreder-Nica comin 'gennem din skærm
Tilbage fra den store ud over som søn af mand eller søn af donda? (Jesus)
Jeg rullede aldrig GSXR eller R6 eller Honda (Lord)
Men jeg fløj min Ducati gennem Nordamerika som Wakanda
Jordskælv vil slå denne nation for, hvad Bush gjorde til Rwanda (Fakta)
Hvad Clintons gjorde til Haiti og Downing Street gjorde til Ghana (Jesus)
I Tenochtitlan kalder de mig Terremoto, El Negro Loco (Lord)
Jeg ryster de tektoniske plader af spillet, hvis jeg lå en vokal
Guden er interstellar, mens du fæller forbliver lokale
Mine søjler er som pyramide templer i Pacal Votan (Jesus)
Så sikker som DOJ bekræftede Esekiels hjul (Herre)
Jeg kunne ændre verden som yacub med to stykker stål
Mit sværd og min mikrofon, jeg svor til Kristi trone
Men når du er fantastisk, vil de sige, at du tog en l, José Castille (Jesus)
Jeg er i kampen her, kæmp her for, hvad der syntes som lysstår (herre)
Mine robuste kors og tornede kroner klemmer ud af chiken tårer
Tredive stykker af sølvklædt, min Pierre prisniveau
Det er en krig udenfor, det er en krig udenfor (Jesus)
Det er som de sidste dage af Sodom og Gomorrays udenfor (Lord)
[Chorus: Kanye West]
Fortæl mig, om du kender nogen, der har brug for (Jesus, Herre)
Nu har vi været igennem en masse ting
Fortæl mig, om du kender nogen, der har brug for (Jesus, Herre)
Han bor i mange ting
Fortæl mig, om du kender nogen, der har brug for (Jesus, Herre)
Har været igennem en masse ting
Fortæl mig, om du kender nogen, der har brug for (Jesus, Herre)
[Outro: Larry Hoover Jr. & Kanye West]
Hvad er du? Denne Larry Hoover Jr
Først og fremmest vil jeg gerne takke for at tage kampen for min far til Oval Office
Du har måske ikke været den eneste, der kunne have gjort det
Men du var den, der gjorde det
Og med din hjælp kan vi fortsætte med at lade verden deltage i denne kamp
Du ved, for mig, det føles lidt
Mig, min mor, mine brødre og mine børn
Er alle blevet fængslet gennem denne rejse
Og vi har ikke engang været i fængsel
Vi er blevet kigget på og behandlet som kriminelle
For at være en del af denne familie
Min fars sandhed og virkeligheden, at han rejste mig ind
Er det, at han ønskede at ændre dette samfund (fortæl mig, om du kender nogen, der har brug for)
Fordi betingelserne i dette kapitalistiske samfund er, hvad der gjorde ham
Og det er hvad der lavede børnene i dag
Efter femogtyve år af Bein 'låst ned, treogtyve og en
Min far har ikke kaldt nogen skud fra en af de mest sikre og segregerede fængsler i verden
Og vil ikke, engang frigivet, ring til eventuelle skud til gangster disciple
Hvis min fars hensigter skulle lede os til døden, ødelæggelse
Ind i helvede, at han har måttet leve i de sidste seksogtyve år
Mand, han ville være død for mig
Jeg tilmeldte mig ikke
Jeg blev ikke på denne rejse så længe efter det
Hele mit liv, mand
Jeg har ventet for min far at komme hjem
De fortalte mig, da jeg graduerede ottende klasse, ville han være hjemme
Så fortalte de mig, da jeg tog eksamen fra gymnasiet, ville han være hjemme
Jeg gik væk til Morris Brown, jeg graduerede, og han er stadig ikke hjemme
Nu er jeg en voksen, og min datter gik væk til college og gradueret
Han er stadig ikke hjemme
Nu endnu mere end det, min søn, han tog eksamen ottende klasse, og vi ventede stadig '
Faktisk, han har ikke hugget, kysset eller rørt nogen af hans børnebørn
Og de har ikke været i stand til at røre de bedstefar
Selvom det ikke ses på den måde for nogle af os
Men for mange af os er Larry Hoover et fyrtårn af håb for sit samfund
Der fortjener at trække vejret fri luft
Gratis min far (Jesus), Mr. Larry Hoover Sr. (Herre)
