ye vs. the people
Singer:west, kanye
turned my dreams into dust
turned my dreams into dust
i know obama was heaven-sent
it proved that i could be president
don't that go against the teachings that ye taught for?
yo t.i.p. i hear your side and everybody talk though
but ain't goin' against the grain everything i fought for?
but where you tryna go with this?
it's some shit you just don't align with and don't go against
you just readin' the headlines
you don't see the fine print
you on some choosin'-side shit
it's bigger than your selfish agenda
if your election ain't gon' stop police from murderin' niggas
i never ever stopped fightin' for the people
actually wearin' the hat'll show people that we equal
you gotta see the vantage point of the people
what makes you feel equal makes them feel evil
see that's the problem with this damn nation
all blacks gotta be democrats
we ain't made it off the plantation
fuck who you choose as your political party
you representin' dudes just seem crude and cold-hearted
with blatant disregard for the people who put you in position
don't you feel an obligation to them?
i feel an obligation to show people new ideas
and if you wanna hear 'em
make america great again had a negative reception
care and love and affection
and y'all simply questionin' my methods
what you willin' to lose for the point to be proved?
you wore a dusty ass hat to represent the same views
we expect better from you
all them times you sounded crazy
not just to be let down when we depend on you
that's why it's important to know what direction you're goin' now
'cause everything that you built can be destroyed and torn down
you think i ain't concerned about how i affect the past?
that hat stayed in my closet about a year and a half
