Kanye West
Wash Us in the Blood (Demo)
[Verse 1]
Ask who do I live on, [?]
Take some, rain, nonstop, rain don't want war
Rain come, rain come
Come shine, come rain, come up
Let it sound, let it bang
Let it fall, let it rain
Rain down on the plane
Rain down on the plane
Rain down on my mom
Rain down on the mom
Shower us with Your love
Wash us in the blood
High stomp for the thug
I done spend it in the mud
Grew up life, tryna uh
I know all my friends thugs
And, uh, oh, my phone buzz
Everybody dun-dun
One up in the club
No choice to sell drugs
No choice, locked up
No choice on thugs
Rain down on us
Rain down on us
Shower down on us
Wash us in a flood
Wash us in the blood
Whole life bein’ thugs
No choice, sellin' drugs
[?], what it does
Rain down on us
Genocide, what it does
Slavery, what it does
Rain down on us
Whole life sellin' drugs
[Chorus]
Wash us in the blood
Wash us in Your blood
Wash us in the blood
Wash us in the blood
Wash us in the blood

[Bridge]
Holy Spirit, come down
Holy Spirit, come down
Holy Spirit, help now
Holy Spirit, help now
Holy Spirit, come down
Holy Spirit, come down
Holy Spirit, help now
Whole spirit, dun-dun

[Verse 2]
Wash us in the blood
Whole life bein’ thugs
No choice sellin' drugs
Genocide, what it does
Mass incarc', what it does
'Cause a cause, what it does
'Nother life bein' lost
That's all for the cost
Executes in thirty states
Thirty states still execute
Thou shall not kill, thou shall not throw
Stomp, stomp with the residue
Cashed on, what the leather do
Last song what the better do
Now it's time for the residue
Ones that never do, hunnid they never do
[Chorus]
Rain down on us
Rain down on us
Wash us in the blood
Wash us in the blood
Holy spirit, come down
Holy spirit, come down

[Verse 3]
And they tryna control ’Ye
They want me to calm down
They don’t want me to Kanye
They don't want Kanye to be Kanye
They wanna sign a fake Kanye, they tryna sign a calm ’Ye
I call that n***a Calm-Ye, 'cause he's down with an army
That song is what I all make, everything you see is all me
They wanna edit the interviews, they wanna take it to interludes
Cut a whole sentence to inner loose
Tryna put something in interview
[?] long as I'm in the booth
Hot as the sun when they bend the truth
Livin’ 'cause nobody livin'
And nobody's different, and doin' it different

[Chorus]
Rain, rain down on us
Holy Spirit, come down
Holy Spirit, come down
We need you now
Wash us in the blood
Whole life bein' thugs
No choice, sellin' drugs
Genocide, what it does
Slavery, what it does
