Last Call
Lyrics, The College Dropout (2004)

“You know why my spirit's callin'
Darkness can't take light from me
Haven't you gone far enough?
Sacrificed the ones you love
Gave up on your sanity
Like some twisted fantasy
What would I say to everything?
Your actions cost everything.”

Never Abandon Your Family
Lyrics, Donda (2021)

“Mama, your son in the red hat
Had suffered set-backs, had 'shouldn't-have-said-thats'
Had made everyone mad Give 'em enough of they own rope to hang 'em with
The paparazzi never really got what my angle is
They treat my married life like some type of entanglement.”

Kanye West

Life of the Party
Lyrics, Donda (2021)

“Nothing worse than a hypocrite
Change, he ain't really different
He ain't even try to get permission
Ask for advice and they dissed him
Said I'm finna do a gospel album
What have you been hearing from the Christians?
They'll be the first one to judge me
Make it feel like nobody love me.”

Kanye West

Hands On
Lyrics, Jesus Is King (2019)

“Sometimes I take all the shine
Talk like I drank all the wine
Years ahead but way behind
I'm on one, two, three, four, five
No half-truths, just naked minds
Caught between space and time
This not what they had in mind
But maybe someday...”

Kanye West

Ghost Town
Lyrics, Ye (2018)

“Seem like the more fame, I only got wilder
Hands up, we just doing what the cops taught us
I've been outta my mind a long time
I've been outta my mind a long time
I be saying how I feel at the wrong time
Might not come when you want but I'm on time. Name one genius that ain't crazy.”

I Am a God
Lyrics, Yeezus (2013)

“And I heard 'em say
Nothing's ever promised tomorrow or today
From the Chi, like Tim, it's a harder way
So this is in the name of love like Robert say
Before you ask me to go get a job today,
Can I at least get a raise on the minimum wage?”

Kanye West

Heard 'Em Say
Lyrics, Late Registration (2005)

“I woke up early this morning with a new state of mind,
A creative way to rhyme without usin' knives and guns.
Keep your nose out the sky, keep your heart to God,
And keep your face to the rising sun. I feel like one day you'll understand me, dawg
You can still love your man and be manly, dawg”

Kanye West

Family Business
Lyrics, The College Dropout (2004)

“How do you console my mom or give her light support
Tellin' her her son's on life support?
And just imagine how my girl feel,
On the plane scared as hell that her guy look like Emmett Till.”

Kanye West

Through the Wire
