Forever, ever

Can you hear me? Yeah

Forever, ever

Forever, forever, no

Glorious, glory, glory, glory

Glory, glory, glory, glory

It feels good to be home

And to all of you, I thank you so much for your support

For your support of me for so many years

And more importantly, for the work you continue to do

What did he want me to talk about?

Well, he said something that was a little bit dangerous

He told me I could talk about anything I wanted to

And you know, I am my son's mother

The man I described in the introduction is being so decidedly different, my son (Evеrytime)

And what made the projеct extra special to me is

I got a chance to share not only what he has meant to me

But what he has meant to a generation (Today's the time)

As one writer said, we came from somewhere

Not just from the wombs of our mothers and the seeds of our fathers

But from a long line of generations who came before us

Is the kingdom (Is the kingdom)

And the power (And the power)

And the glory (And the glory)

Forever? (Forever)

Is the kingdom (Is the kingdom)

And the power (And the power)

And the glory (And the glory)

Forever? (Forever)

Forever, yeah

Forever, yeah

Forever, forever, no, oh, yeah

Glorious, glory, glory, glory

What did I teach him? (Glory)

And why Kanye ain't scared?

I'd rather deal with the shame than take the weight of the lie

Every time we talk I just wait for the lies

Every time I get the food, I just wait for the flies

Look, just send your prayers up, they'll be waitin' in the sky

My, my, my, Miss American Pie

Was a hero after Katrina but that levee went dry

Mom met my dad back in '75

Two years later, the chosen has arrived

Holy, Holy, Holy Father

Hold me in an ocean worth of Holy Water

And David's slingshot, hope it throws you farther

You brought church to stadiums built for only soccer

When the world built on lies, the truth is a threat

Faith over the fortune, it kept you outta debt

It's snakes in money pits that you ain't found yet

Crooks behind the scene like, "He ain't drown yet?"

Rain bills from the ranch 'til the whole town wet

God's grace rains down, that's the holy fountain

Got twelve thousand acres full of holy mountains

See, you almost didn't make it, who are you without Him?

Holy, Holy, Holy Father, hold me in a ocean the size of Holy Water

Man, if plan A worked, you wouldn't know your daughter

For every tear you cried in South Carolina

Is the kingdom (Is the kingdom)

And the power (And the power)

And the glory (And the glory)

Forever? (Forever)

Is the kingdom (Is the kingdom)

And the power (And the power)

And the glory (And the glory)

Forever? (Forever)
