[Intro: Travis Scott, Pharrell Williams & The Weeknd]
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, ooh, yeah)
Feels like slow motion (Yeah), we're floating at the speed (Yeah)
Hoo (Yeah, yeah)
Louder (Louder)
Higher, higher, higher, higher, higher (Uh, yeah)
It's like standing in the ocean

[Verse 1: Kanye West, Pharrell Williams, The Weeknd & Travis Scott]
People say, “I want world peace”
Jerome's niece got shot in the dome-piece (Yeah)
So Jerome went and bought his own piece (Thе sadness washin’ me and the mеmories)
Thinkin’ it would help him find his own peace
Sometimes, I bug out (Standing in the ocean)
It's not from being drugged out, you think? (Yeah)
It's from being ridiculed and snubbed out
Wrote the Donda chart and was laughed at, at the valley (Valley)
Thrown in the alley (Alley, the sadness washin’ me)
Banished back to Cali' (Cali')
To subject myself to managers and manipulators (Feels like slow motion, we’re floating at the speed)
Who only objective in life, is to get the paper (Like floating, if I can't be in time)
Where do you go if you're just pouring your soul to the soulless? (Woah, I don't know, I don't know, wash on me, wash on me)
That's why I ain't been doing no press (In the ocean)
And you know the pink hair so fresh (If I can't be loved)
But Yeezy gon' do more than entertain (I don't know a sound)
Yeezy gon' build homes, schools & planes
Don't refer to me as rapper, or even a visionary (Standing in the ocean)
All of these titles, just making my vision blurry (Standing in the ocean, the sadness washin’ me)
All of these deadlines, making my decisions hurry
I am not your idol (Bad memories like waves)
I am not your rival
I am just a vessel (Echoing)
And, a way of thinking, really nothing special (Echoing, echoing)
Man, you know when people say, "I'm on my Ye shit" (Standing in the ocean, oh, baby)
A century from now (Ooh)
Everybody gon' be on that same shit
I had a dream that I could float, yeah, I had cracked the code
I was at my grammar school, Vanderpoel
And for some reason, Posdnuos was there
And of course the people sent people to get me
Let off a few shots, but none of them hit me
The attempted assailants was black, but dressed like Remy
They had the AK-47, with the scope on it
When I make forty-seven, I'll still be dope, won't I?
Back in real life, it's the words they try to murder me with
If I ask help on my verse, that's plastic surgery rap (Ocean)
It's too many “I”s, and "they"s always to blame, like they did this (I don't know what’s safe)
Excuse is always the same (Oh, baby)
Just take the statement; “I want world peace
Especially after what they did to Jerome's niece”
I heard a girl scream to a girl, "Girl please"
But if you remove want, 'cause that's desire and I, 'cause that's ego, guess what? You have world peace (It's like standing in the ocean)

[Bridge: Elon Musk]
Everyone in this room is inspired by you, who are you inspired by?
Well Kanye West, obviously (*Laughter & applause*)

[Verse 2: Kanye West]
I fucked your ex and sent a text out of respect
It was good sex, honorable mention to the neck
Didn't ask to mouth, that was out of respect
Afterwards, pass the towel, I was out of Kleenex
When you take a girl out, do you expect sex?
If she take her titties out, do she expect checks?
Next visit, I gave her a pearl necklace
Next visit, think I need a girl naked

[Instrumental Outro]
