      Kanye big head ass wants to have credit for everything. I Used to love Kanye but his ego is killing his own career at this point, dude needs to slow tf down and let true talent shine. Or he should’ve never put KaCyys part on there if he was just going to remove it like an egomaniac. Smh this song was a classic the way it was, Kanye just needs to fall back off of trying to be the spotlight talent cus this original is wayyyy better than his new version.

    The way Kanye recruits Griselda - a rap crew who primarily rap about the streets and luxurious life - on a song to reflect about faith & trials, without making them scale down their personalities is really dope.
    And KayCyy on the chorus is heavenly.

      Of course he raps about God, the comment is about the fact that Griselda fit perfectly on one of the most emotional songs on the album.
      Their content is normally unapologetically explicit, because they tell the stories of the life they lived/live. But they still fit perfectly on an album that only has a clean version, without having to minimize their personalities.

    This is not a commercial album, this is deeper than music,a masterpiece, Drake gonna have an extremely successful commercial album, but Ye decided to drop ART in your face,how can you measure talent... i definitely would have accepted the idea of Kanye not dropping this album, just a listening party, this is not for Spotify, this not for Apple music, this for you to have a vinyl at home 🏘️ with your whisky

    Lyrics
    [Intro: Kanye West & KayCyy]
    Ooh, ooh
    Keep my spirit alive
    Keep my spirit alive, alive
    [Chorus: Kanye West]
    More than anything
    You can take it all, but the Lord on my side
    Spirit won't die, die
    Oh, oh, my life
    Is in His hands, so I don't stress, I pray and strategize
    [Verse 1: Westside Gunn]
    Yo
    Flushed the work just in time and they raided, thank God (Thank God)
    Screamin' through the GT roof like ****, we done made it, thank God (Thank God)
    Hundred-round drum didn't jam when my shooter tried to spray it, thank God (Thank God)
    Couple thousand grams, got two thousand grands when we waited, thank God (Thank God)
    I was facin' fifteen and I beat it (And I beat it)
    Just spent about twenty up at Neimans (Up at Neimans)
    Did two hundred in a Demon (In a Demon, skrrt)
    I'm the illest **** and I mean it (And I mean it)
    My homie droppin' bodies for no reason (Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom)
    Now his kids see him on the weekends (Ah)
    Got the baking soda for the remix (Remix)
    Millionaires on, I can see it
    [Chorus: Kanye West]
    More than anything
    You can take it all, but the Lord on my side
    Spirit won't die, die
    Oh, oh, my life
    Is in His hands, so I don't stress, I pray and strategize
    [Verse 2: Conway the Machine]
    Yeah, don't hate me, 'cause my heart is full of love
    No weapon formed against me 'cause I'm covered in the blood
    Layin' in the hospital when I got shot, fam
    Mama prayed for me, said she left it in God's hands, yeah
    So I'ma leave it in God's hands
    Everything I'm doin' now is God's plan
    Doctor said I wouldn't walk no more, now I stand
    Then I ran, here I am, Machine
    [Chorus: Kanye West]
    Keep my spirit alive, alive
    More than anything
    You can take it all, but the Lord on my side
    [Verse 3: Kanye West & Royce da 5'9"]
    Well, between a mix of bad schools with the fast food
    Bad had tools and a bad mood
    If you don't turn to a lil' Gotti, they gon' drain all the strength in your lil' body
    They turned me into a lil' Gotti, uh, yeah
    Not Wakanda but Wakanda is kinda like what we 'bout to make
    And who gon' make it? Kan', duh
    Who the squad? Donda
    Who the mom? Donda
    Who can see? Don, duh, get Don C
    Who needs practice? I don't do rehearsals
    And I don't do commercials, 'cause they too commercial
    Give it all to God and let Jesus reimburse you
    She said "You in the studio with who? I'ma hurt you"
    How I'm forty-two and you got a curfew?
    How nerves dictate how they gon' curve you?
    Quiet all the cordialness
    We walk in God's spiritual ordinance
    We know the Blacks, the orphans refused to be runaways
    Rebel, renegade, must stay paid
    [Chorus: Kanye West]
    More than anything
    You can take it all, but the Lord on my side
    Spirit won't die, die
    Oh, oh, my life
    Is in His hands, so I don't stress, I pray and strategize

    I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back to my school. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real, it's impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me; it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES!

    I'm just gonna say, THIS IS THE REAL VERSION. Download it because Kanye will pull it down.
    I'm still mad I can't find the original version of FACTS by Kanye.

    Man i’ll never forget my first time hearing this song. It was earlier today.
    My car had just broken down in the middle of traffic. After having to push it off the road with the help of a kind stranger, i found myself walking home alone. Headphones in listening to Donda. Right now i’m struggling to pay my way through school, can’t really afford to fix my car but need it for work to stack up.
    I was feeling so down, and then Westside Gunn came in on this song. Yoooooo! I had no idea he was on this track but his verse just sounded so damn good!! The vocal mixing, the flow, fucking perfect. Found myself cheesing mad hard just laughing out loud. Love this sound for WSG and the rest of the track is just beautiful.
    Imma keep my spirit alive, thank you Kanye 🙌🏼.
