Here’s a clip of Ye’s verse:



Here's Yeezy's entire verse:

You know what yo, you a b*tch
you should have a travel agent cause you a trip
you should make your own toilet tissue since you the sh*t
but all you got is some f*cking issues you f*cking b*tch
I hate you but I love your mom
give her a kiss for me, her second son
get your mind right baby or get your ish together
you gonna be hot a lil while, i’mma be rich forever
girl seduces, they come in deuces
but when I cut em off they always become a nuances
N**gas take my old flows and they take my old swag
he just took my old b*tch and turned it to his new b*tch
I’m stupid but I won’t get my drama on
What I’m dealing with is too real to comment on
Jay finally got it through my head not to run my mouth
so when ya’ll talking bout you know who
I don’t know what you’re talking bout
