I had for usYou turned my dreams into dustI watch a phone that I had for usYou turned my dreams into dustI know Obama was heaven-sentBut ever since Trump won, it proved that I could be presidentYeah, you can, at what cost though?Don't that go against the teachings that Ye taught for?Yo, Tip, I hear your side and everybody talk thoughBut ain't goin' against the grain everything I fought for?Prolly so, Ye, but where you tryna go with this?It's some shit you just don't align with and don't go againstYou just readin' the headlines, you don't see the fine printYou on some choosin'-side shit, I'm on some unified shitIt's bigger than your selfish agendaIf your election ain't gon' stop police from murderin' niggasThen shit…Bruh, I never ever stopped fightin' for the peopleActually, wearin' the hat'll show people that we equalYou gotta see the vantage point of the peopleWhat makes you feel equal makes them feel evilSee that's the problem with this damn nationAll Blacks gotta be Democrats, manWe ain't made it off the plantationFuck who you choose as your political partyYou representin' dudes just seem crude and cold-heartedWith blatant disregard for the people who put you in positionDon't you feel an obligation to them?I feel a obligation to show people new ideasAnd if you wanna hear 'em, there go two right hereMake America Great Again had a negative perceptionI took it, wore it, rocked it, gave it a new directionAdded empathy, care and love and affectionAnd y'all simply questionin' my methodsWhat you willin' to lose for the point to be proved?This shit is stubborn, selfish, bullheaded, even for youYou wore a dusty-ass hat to represent the same viewsAs white supremacy, man, we expect better from youAll them times you sounded crazy, we defended you, homieNot just to be let down when we depend on you, homieThat's why it's important to know what direction you're goin' now'Cause everything that you built can be destroyed and torn downYou think I ain't concerned about how I affect the past?I mean, that hat stayed in my closet like 'bout a year and a halfThen one day I was like, "Fuck it, I'ma do me. "I was in the sunken place and then I found the new meNot worried about some image that I gotta keep upLot of people agree with me, but they're too scared to speak upThe greater good of the people is firstHave you considered all the damage and the people you hurt?You had a bad idea and you're makin' it worseThis shit's just as bad as Catholic preachers rapin' in churchY'all been leadin' with hate, see I just approach it differentLike a gang truce, the first Blood to shake the Crip's handI know everybody emotionalIs it better if I rap about crack? Huh? 'Cause it's cultural?Or how about I'ma shoot you? Or fuck your bitch?Or how about all this Gucci, 'cause I'm fuckin' rich?You'll deal with God for the lack of respectStartin' to make it seem like Donnie cut you a checkNow you toyin' with hot lava, better be careful with thatWhat's it mean to gain the world if you ain't standin' for shit?Okay I gotta say it, Ye, you sound high as a bitchYeah, genocide and slavery, we should just try and forgetAnd all that free thought shit, find a better defenseBut if Ye just stuck in his way, he can leave it at thatFuck itAlright, Tip, we could be rappin' about this all day, manWhy don't we just cut the beat off and let the people talk?
