Bliss
Kanye West & G.O.O.D Music Lyrics

No matter what I'm holding onto my faith
Regardless of the circumstances, I firmly believe in and rely on my faith

Gotta chase the money I been grinding all day
I have to pursue wealth and have been working tirelessly all day

Protecting mine cause like a thief they gon' try and take this shit all away
I'm safeguarding what's mine, because there are people who will try to steal it from me

Rez baby turning nothing to something my motivation is pain
Coming from humble beginnings, I am determined to transform my life into something meaningful, and my motivation is derived from the pain I've experienced

I went up, and I was tryna make you proud
I achieved success, and my goal was to make you proud

I went up, and they was tryna bring me down
As I rose to the top, there were people who aimed to tear me down

I went up, but they ain't fucking wit me now
Although they tried to hinder my progress, they can't compete with me now

Put a jacket on my soul when this world get cold
To shield my inner self from the harshness of the world, I protect it like wearing a jacket

I told god show me the way cause I'm living off hope
I pleaded with God to guide me, as my life is sustained by hope

Ninety nine problems but I keep it a hunnid won't change up
I may have numerous challenges, but I always remain true to myself and won't alter my principles

Staying true to my roots just like I came from the rubble
I remain loyal to my origins, just as if I emerged from a very difficult situation

I was born a champion won't take that from me
I possess an innate spirit of triumph, and no one can deny that

Come from the dirt roads where this shit get muddy
I come from humble beginnings where life can be messy and challenging

I had dreams of sitting up at the top just like an eagle when he fly in the sky
I aspired to reach the pinnacle of success, like an eagle soaring in the sky

I got it in me not on me just like my physical heart
The qualities and abilities I possess are inherent within me, analogous to my beating heart

Won't fuck around I gotta make this shit count
I won't waste my time, I have to make every moment meaningful

I'm ten toes when I'm standing my ground, I took flight like levitation they be asking me how
I remain steadfast and firm in my convictions, and my success appears almost magical, making others wonder how I achieved it

My circle full of natives I can't really fuck with no crowds
I surround myself with authentic individuals and don't associate with superficial groups

The perfect timing bitch my time is right now
The timing is perfect, as my time for success is at this very moment

You see me going up, man on the moon shoot for the stars like an astronaut
You witness my ascent, aiming for great heights like an astronaut reaching for the stars

See me at the top they gon' really try and pick me apart
Once I reach the pinnacle, others will attempt to criticize and break me down

Say what I am and what I'm not but they got it twisted like a fucking knot
They make assumptions about who I am and what I'm not, but their understanding is completely twisted and inaccurate

Let me tell you a story, in the closet I recorded talking to the mic
Allow me to share a narrative with you; I used to record myself speaking into a microphone inside a closet

Turned me into a poet, youngest but wise like I was the oldest
This experience transformed me into a poet, despite being young, my wisdom surpasses that of the elder

I ain't perfect I got flaws and I can't sugar coat it
I am not flawless, I possess imperfections and I won't disguise or hide them

This music making moves that a 9 to 5 couldn't
My music career is progressing in ways that a traditional 9 to 5 job could not achieve

They heard the route that I'm taking and told me that I really shouldn't
Upon learning about the path I am pursuing, they advised me not to continue

Now that I'm up like the sun I got them sweating bullets
Now that I have achieved success, they are feeling anxious and worrisome

Make 'em think twice yeah, before they overlook me
I make them reconsider their judgment before they dismiss or underestimate me

Going crazy they know that I'm so wavy before I go
I drive them crazy with my unique style and they acknowledge my exceptional talent before I eventually leave

Imma put moms in a mercedes this for the people who love and also hate me
I will buy my mother a Mercedes car, and this is dedicated to both the people who support me and those who despise me

Soon they gone hear me everywhere yeah on the daily bliss
In the near future, they will hear about me everywhere, in a state of constant joy

Yeah, that's my homie (yeah, yeah)
Yes, that's my friend and comrade

Yeah we going to the top together, together oh
Indeed, we are ascending to the pinnacle of success together, as a unified force
