Ultralight Beam
Kanye West & Chance the Rapper & Kirk Franklin Lyrics

Yes, God
Acknowledgement of the presence of God

We don't want no devils in the house, God (Yes, Lord) We want the lord (Yes, Jesus) And that's it (Yes, God) Hallej- hand over Satan (Yes, Jesus) Jesus praise the Lord (Yes God) Hallelujah, God (Yes, God) We don't want no devils in the house, God (Yes, Lord) We want the lord (Yes, Jesus) And that's it (Yes, God) Hallej- hand over Satan (Yes, Jesus) Jesus praise the Lord (Yes, God)
Rejection of negative forces and an affirmation of the desire for God's presence and blessings

I'm tryna keep my faith
Personal commitment to hold onto faith

We on an ultralight beam We on an ultralight beam This is a God dream This is a God dream This is everything This is everything
Acknowledgement of the greatness of God's plan and the feeling of being lifted up by faith

Deliver us serenity Deliver us peace Deliver us loving We know we need it You know we need it You know we need it That's why we need you now, oh, I
Request for divine intervention and a plea for inner peace and love

Pray for Paris Pray for the parents This is a God dream This is a God dream This is a God dream We on an ultralight beam We on an ultralight beam This is a God dream This is a God dream This is everything Everything (Thing, thing, thing)
Call for prayer and a reminder that God is everything

But I'm looking for more Somewhere I can feel safe And end my holy war
Desire for personal growth and healing while seeking a peaceful existence

So why send depression not blessings? Why, oh why'd you do me wrong? (More) You persecute the weak Because it makes you feel so strong (To save) Don't have much strength to fight So I look to the light (Lord) To make these wrongs turn right Head up high, I look to the light Hey, cause I know that you'll make everything alright And I know that you'll take good care of your child Oh, no longer am afraid of the night Cause I, I look to the light
Questioning why hardship and suffering exist and seeking refuge from darkness through trust and spirituality

When they come for you, I will shield your name I will field their questions, I will feel your pain They don't know, they don't They don't know, they don't know Foot on the Devil's neck 'til they drifted Pangaea I'm moving all my family from Chatham to Zambia Treat the demons just like Pam I mean I fuck with your friends, but damn, Gina I been this way since Arthur was anteater Now they wanna hit me with the woo wap the bam Tryna snap photos of familia My daughter look just like Sia, you can't see her You can feel the lyrics and spirit coming in braille Tubman of the underground, come and follow the trail I made Sunday Candy, I'm never going to hell I met Kanye West, I'm never going to fail He said let's do a good ass job with Chance three I hear you gotta sell it to snatch the Grammy Let's make it so free and the bars so hard That there ain't one gosh darn part you can't tweet This is my part, nobody else speak This is my part, nobody else speak This little light of mine Glory be to God, yeah I'mma make sure that they go where they can't go If they don't wanna ride I'mma still give them raincoats Know what God said when he made the first rainbow Just throw this at the end if I'm too late for the intro Ugh, I'm just having fun with it You know that a nigga was lost I laugh in my head Cause I bet that my ex looking back like a pillar of salt Ugh, cause they'll flip the script on your ass like Wesley and Spike You cannot mess with the light Look at lil Chano from 79 We on an ultralight beam We on an ultralight beam This is a God dream This is a God dream This is everything Everything
Expressing personal struggles and triumphs through personal anecdotes and cultural references while reinforcing the message of spirituality

Father, this prayer is for everyone that feels they're not good enough. This prayer's for everybody that feels like they're too messed up. For everyone that feels they've said "I'm sorry" too many times. You can never go too far when you can't come back home again. That's why I need...
A heartfelt plea for God's love and forgiveness for all who feel inadequate

Faith, more, safe, war
Reiteration of the importance of faith, the desire for more, the need for safety and the end of a personal battle.
