Kanye West
What Has America Done For Me?
[Intro: LeRoi Jones Young Spirit House Players and Movers of Bedford- Stuyvesant and Brownsville]
What has America done for me?
Nothing!
But make me a zombie!
Took away my uncles life
Gave me some [?] some dead white man hangin' from it
Teachin' us about Mary had a little lamb
Mary was white
The lamb was white
And what about old snow white?
Old mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to give her poor dog a bone ⠀
[Refrain: Kanye West]
This life found freedom
Everything that we want
This life found freedom
Everything that we want
[Chorus: Kanye West]
Conway
They done raised up the crime wave
Highways
High speed on the highways
[Verse 1: Kanye West]
45 like Peakago
Outside likе he 10'2
If I do offend you
Baby boy I didn't intend to
[Chorus: Kanye West and Dem Jointz]
Conway
Thеy done raised up the crime wave
Highways
High speed on the highways
[Verse 2: Kanye West and Dem Jointz]
Y'all just on a need to know
Information on a need to know
Bunch of secrets out the covers blown
Fifty percent of y'all hate us though
Irate
Honestly we all need to grow
Live and die by the hate!
And honestly you just need to go
You ain't know what I've been through
You ain't know what I've been through
Let us stop all the hate (uh)
How much more we gotta take? (uh)
Pushin' fate make her break (uh)
How much love will it take? (uh)
We've been waiting for a break (uh)
Just a chance to celebrate (uh)
Just a chance to share the day (uh)
Just a chance to share the day (uh)
We've been waiting for a break (uh)
How much more we gotta take (uh)
[Refrain: Kanye West]
This life found freedom
Everything that we want
This life found freedom
Everything
Everything
Everything
Everything
[Outro: LeRoi Jones Young Spirit House Players and Movers of Bedford- Stuyvesant and Brownsville]
She gave the dog a fake
And gave the bones to Nigro's
And that bones pig, [?] ham, [?] guts!
May the guts [?]
[?] uncle tom n***as
Thats what Americas done for me!
Made me a robot!
A Frankenstein!
A Puppet!
What has America done for me?
Nothing!
But made me a zombie!
