Keep My Spirit Alive (God’s Country Demo)
[Intro: Kanye West & KayCyy]
Keep my spirit alive
We must now realize the promise of America by trusting God, unifying our vision, and building the future
'No mean?
Well, between a mix of bad schools with the fast food (The spirit won’t die, I—)
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 (Oh, oh, oh, my life, yeah)
They turned me into a lil' Gotti, uh, yeah (The spirit won't die, Lord on my side)

[Verse 1: Kanye West, Royce da 5'9" & KayCyy]
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
MIB, I told LV like Farrakhan told me
You can take the V, it still won't cure the disease (My life, yeah)
Uh, still won’t cure the disease, still won’t cure—yeah (More than enough, spirit won't die, you can take it all with the lord on my side)
You’re more concerned about raising your next round than raising your next child (The spirit won't die)
Here's the exodus on the one you exiled (I--)
We won't panic in a pandemic, we can stand in it (Oh, oh, oh, my life)
Believe in the word, know the spirit is transcendent (Is in His hands, so I don’t stress, I pray and strategize)
People who stress you out, my vision clear without it (Spirit won't die)
But it's y'all, I swear I'm sorry to hear about it
I'm not sorry it happened
I'm just sorry to hear about it (I mean)
The best decision on your worst mistake
Every day's a song, it only takes the hook to break
Headed back to Cody and the first thing's smokin'
I'ma get a room, at the first thing open, brr—yeah
Step into the sanctuary
You gon' thank me so much, I had to start a thank-tuary (More than enough)
Tell the assassins I escaped from Calabasas (You can take it all with the lord on my side)
Where they wanna turn my wife to Jackie Jo Jackson (The spirit won't die, I—)
Jackie Robinson, we had that
When the World Cup Series and that's just us practicin', but— (The spirit won't die, I—)
Who needs practice? I don't do rehearsals (Oh, oh, oh, my life, yeah)
And I don't do commercials, 'cause they too commercial (Is in His hands, so I don't stress)
Give it all to God and let Jesus reimburse you (I pray and strategize)
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 (Keep my spirit alive)
We walk in God's spiritual ordinance (Keep my spirit alive, alive)
We know the Blacks, the orphans refused to be runaways
Rebel, renegade, must stay paid (The spirit won't die I--)
[Bridge: KayCyy]
More than enough
I can face the world with the Lord on my side

[Verse 2: Kanye West, Royce da 5'9", & KayCyy]
My puffer so puffy you would've thought it was Sean John (The spirit won't die, I—)
[?] Avengers suit my dad wore to my Mom's prom (Oh, oh, oh, my life, yeah)
Go home to the wifey to avoid the Rom Coms
How you break the neck and go to sleep in Mom Joms? (Is in His hands, so I don't stress)
Summer basketball camp down in Maryland (I pray and strategize)
Used to play it with the [?]
Used to play it with the Taliban
Had a police officer abuse a fellow African
That DC crossover had me feelin' arrogant
But I got scopophobia, don't stare at him
My favorite intern worked somewhere else for more cheese
But I can't cry over spilled milk employees
Back up, back up, back up this the main event
I saw Cazzie training my girl, ain't had a male trainer since
I need an estate plane, with an escape plan
Just in-case I'm ambushed by Mr. Fake-Tan
You are an example of someone who ain't prayin'
You a sinner, all orange, like a fake tan
Satan is Helen Keller to people
Until we all agree he a liar, we ain't equal
Brought souls to Hove, now bring the souls to JAY-hovah (I pray and strategize)
Raised in the cold, thank God I'm Bi-Polar
I wouldn't do a Doc on Mike, I'm not Oprah
Drenched in the blood, I'm not what 'cha call sober
I followed in the word and did what the Lord told us (The spirit won't die)
Now I've got the culture back on my shoulders
[Outro: KayCyy]
Keep my spirit alive
Keep my spirit alive, alive
More than enough
You can take it all with the lord on my side
Oh, oh, oh, my life (Yeah)
Is in His hands, so I don't stress, I pray and strategize
