Lyrics:
Prof nick Cave: Kanye
You join us today to be
Recognized for your transformative
Genre-defining
Work across music, performance
Film, and fashion
the Smithsonian Institute blues
Alll you new dinosaurs
Now it's up t' you t' choose
It sure looks funny for a new dinosaur
T' be in an old dinosaur's shoes
is our brave new world's machine
At the institute in Chicago from the first day you were born
Oh they just can't tell what your feelin'
And they can't
seem so clean
Yes that empty house in California is our brave new world's machine
At the institute in Chicago from the first day you were born
Oh they
of a comparison
If you think about why did it take
So long for the new Yeezys to
Come out? Why did I have to leave
One group and go to another
Group? Why did that
the opportunity to give your
Opinion, apologize for it
And give your opinion again
People say 'You shouldn't
Have to be sorry for your opinions '
George Bush has
add up
The news sickening
Dogmatic as fuck
Saluted the flag
Yet refused to vax
OOOH My views are madd abrupt
Attitude splashed a muck
Ass-backwards
Fuck
such a name
That an articled clerk I soon became;
I wore clean collars and a brand-new suit
For the pass examination at the Institute.
Chorus.
For
bitches got my thumbs hurt
Set precedent for a new sacreligion
Writer's block for two years, nothin' moved me
Asked God to speak through me, that's what
Starfish Baby!'
Yes, the pain is real. The horror is real.
But the hope is also real. Please give generously to:
Torsos for Tots.
A non-profit
Stockton
You ain't gettin nothin, boy, yo trap must be a non-profit
Them them white boys that flick they wrists and beat the Pyrex
Like nicotine, smoke you

This is Drak
Your outer space disc jockey
With a request for earth
(Earth angel, earth angel)
That was The Pelicans
standing up for myself wealth is one thing won't matter if you don't got the health
So I'm cashing the investment I had saved in myself, I'm going
and conquerors
Pharaohs and followers
Goblins and monsterers
Stone heart jewels and gold for the fools
The bones of the innocent is buckles on they boots
for views, I ain't stupid
Cause what about all the good?
The non-profit for the kids in the hood
That ain't got no option in them shelter homes
battle catalysts
It's taken decades for MCs to establish this
You're new to hip hop and welcome if you're serious
But not on the mic leave that
battle catalysts
It's taken decades for MCs to establish this
You're new to hip hop and welcome if you're serious
But not on the mic leave that
talkin' 'bout the rich ones
'Cause every summer he'll get some
Brand new hare-brained scheme to get rich from
And I don't know what he did for dough
But
I put ten of them, pop a Perc' right quick, no cap, I'm itchin' right now
Uh, are you gonna make it? Are you gonna be okay?
For sure, man, come on,
Move a hundred miles away
To be the next new thing
Independent for the first time
And so are all my friends
Department teachers stand around
Watch
The youth activists try to do what they can and extend their hand
With non-profit organizations and guns buy back programs
It's only so much they can do,
We return you now...
This is Drak
Your outer space disc jockey
With a request for earth

'Cause every summer he'll get some
Brand new hare-brained scheme to get rich from
And I don't know what he did for dough
But
Woo
(Statik Selektah)
So I'm basically saying, that it's gonna take you the people (yeah)
You the people, you the people to institute what you
