Kanye West feat Sampha – „Saint Pablo“ lyrics

(Intro: Kanye West)
LA time, regular lavish shit

(Verse 1: Kanye West)

My wife said, I can’t say no to nobody
And at this rate we gon‘ both die broke
Got friends that ask me for money knowin I’m in debt
And like my wife said, I still didn’t say no
People tryna say I’m goin crazy on Twitter
My friends best advice was to stay low
I guess it’s hard to decipher all of the bills
Especially when you got family members on payroll
The media said it was outlandish spendin
The media said he’s way out of control
I just feel like I’m the only one not pretendin
I’m not out of control, I’m just not in they control
I know I’m the most influential
That TIME cover was just confirmation
This generation’s closest thing to Einstein
So don’t worry about me, I’m fine
I can see a thousand years from now in real life
Shit on the paradigm and shift it when I feel like
No conventional thoughts, don’t even question
I know it’s anger cause sometimes I get aggressive
And I will get a lecture, we down with the mission
Did it with with no permission, on our own conditions
Most Blacks with money have been beaten to submission
Yeezy with the big house, get it way different
Never listen to Hollywood producers
Don’t stare at money too long, it’s Medusa
The ultimate Gemini has survived
I wasn’t supposed to make it past 25

(Hook: Sampha)
And you’re looking in the church in the night sky
Wondering why the gods don’t say hi
I’ve been looking in the church in the night sky
And you wonder where is God in the nightlife
Yeah, you’re looking in the church in the night sky
Wondering why the gods don’t say hi
I feel like I’m home, babe

(Verse 2: Kanye West)
I’ve been waking the spirits of millions more to come
A million illegeally downloaded my truth over the drums
I believe in the children, listen to the kids, bro
If your phone ringing, go and get your kids ho
One time my mama told the minister about the presentation
She sat back and smiled
Black on black lies is worse than black on black crime
You should hear the truth on how to make a dime
Most black men couldn’t balance a checkbook
But buy a new car, talkin‘ ‚bout how my neck look
Well it all looks played
Four hundred years later, we buyin our own chains
Blind as we force brothers so the devil workin‘ hard
When the family stick together and see through the mirage
Cause most dreams perceptions, and false reality
Who the real owner if your boss gets a salary?
I am one with the people
I am one with the people
I’ve been workin‘ enlightening this dream
Checkin‘ Instagram comments to crowdsource my self esteem
Let me not say too much or do too much
Cause if I’m up way too much, I’m out of touch
I’m anybody it’s what happened
Tell the people they’ll see how right now it’s not just rappin‘
God I’ll uphold myself before the lord
Drop my ego and confidence with my last resort
I know, I know he got a plan, I know I’m on your beams
One set of footsteps, you was carryin‘ me
When I turn on the news and they was buryin‘ me
One set of footsteps, you was carryin‘ me
When I was negotiating with Apple, it was Larry and me
Told Tim Cook to call me, I was scary to see
Only took a hundred million and gave twenty to Hov
I was already getting it when we only have a stove
But it’s better that I stayed at home with my folks
Cause if Jay a billionaire then I’ma never go broke
Only thing I ask is next time I’m on stage we all go
We all go
Not just by myself, looking for niggas like where’s Waldo
She got the same shoes as my wife but she copped ‚em at Aldo
Modern day MJ with an off the wall flow

(Hook: Sampha)
Flying, flying, walkin all over me
Walkin all over me
And everything I’ve ever sent to you bring
Flying, flying, flying overseas
Flying overseas
Oh, anywhere, everything but in between
And you’re looking in the church in the night sky
Wondering why the gods don’t say hi
I’ve been looking in the church in the night sky
And you wonder where is God in the nightlife
Yeah, you’re looking in the church in the night sky
Wondering why the gods don’t say hi
I’ve been looking in the church in the night sky
And you wonder where is God in the nightlife

(Bridge: Sampha)
These faces that I see
Please save something for me
You’ve been treating me like I’m invisible
Too invisible to you
Oh, invisible to you
Closer, closer what you say
Will you stand closer?
Will you stand? now I wanna know
With my hands on the bible
Tell the truth and nothing but the whole truth
And you’re going to, follow me, follow me
To the barbershop, arms around my elbow
Make me build a temple for my feet

(Hook: Sampha)
And you’re looking in the church in the night sky
Wondering why the gods don’t say hi
I’ve been looking in the church in the night sky
And you wonder where is God in the nightlife
Yeah, you’re looking in the church in the night sky
Wondering why the gods don’t say hi
I’ve been looking in the church in the night sky
And you wonder where is God in the nightlife
