Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're the only power (power)
You're the only power that can
You're the only power (power)
You're the only power that can

If young Metro don't trust you I'm gon' shoot you

Beautiful morning, you're the sun in my morning, babe
Nothing unwanted
Beautiful morning, you're the sun in my morning, babe
Nothing unwanted

I just want to feel liberated, I, I, na-na-na
I just want to feel liberated, I, I, na-na-na
If I ever instigated, I'm sorry
Tell me, who in here can relate? I, I, I

Now if I fuck this model
And she just bleached her asshole
And I get bleach on my T-shirt
I'ma feel like an asshole
I was high when I met her
We was down in Tribeca
She'll get under your skin if you let her
She'll get under your skin if you-uh
I don't even want to talk about it
I don't even want to talk about it
I don't even want to say nothing
Everybody gon' say something
I'd be worried if they said nothing
Remind me where I know you from?
She looking like she owe you some'
You know just what we want
I want to wake up with you in my

Beautiful morning, you're the sun in my morning, babe
Nothing unwanted
Beautiful morning, you're the sun in my morning, babe
Nothing unwanted

I just want to feel liberated, I, I, na-na-na
I just want to feel liberated, I, I, na-na-na




If I ever instigated, I'm sorry
Tell me who in here can relate, I, I, I

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Kanye West's song Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1 may be confusing at first glance, but they actually touch on a few important themes. The repeated line "You're the only power that can" suggests a feeling of helplessness and a desire for guidance, perhaps from a religious or spiritual source. When Kanye says "If young Metro don't trust you I'm gon' shoot you," he is actually referring to his trust issues with people in the music industry, particularly with music producer Metro Boomin. This line is meant to express how seriously he takes his relationships and how strongly he feels about loyalty.


Moving on, the line "Beautiful morning, you're the sun in my morning" represents a sense of hope and renewal, and the desire for a fresh start. Kanye seems to long for a life that is unburdened by the negative experiences of his past, and he hopes to find freedom and liberation in this new day. The lines "I just want to feel liberated" and "If I ever instigated, I'm sorry" further highlight his desire for a new beginning and a clean slate.
