Katrina Lyrics by Ryan Art

LiveFi.01 / Living in the 21st Century Through the Past for the Future

2020

[Kanye West]
Yo Taylor, I- I'm really happy for you
Imma let you finish
But I have decided in 2020 to run for president
[Newscaster]
With the breach of 3 levees protecting New Orleans
The landscape of the city has changed dramatically
Tragically
And perhaps irreversibly
There's now up to 25 feet of water where there was once city streets and thriving neighborhoods
[Kanye West]
I hate the way they portray us in the media
If you see a black family, it says they're looting
If you see a white family, it says they're looking for food
And y'know, its been 5 days
Because most of the pеople are black
And evеn for me to complain about -
I would be a hypocrite because I've tried to turn away from the T.V. because it's too hard to watch
I've even been shopping before and even given a donation
So now I'm calling my business manager right now to see what's the what is biggest amount i could give
And-and just imagine if I was- If i was down there -
And those are my people down there
So anybody out there that wants to do anything that we can help with
The setup, the way America is setup to help the poor, the black people, the-the less well-off as slow as possible
I mean this is - Red Cross is doing everything they can
We already realize a lot of the people that could help are at war right now fighting another way -
And they've given them permission to go down and shoot us
George Bush doesn't care about black people
[Barack Obama]
He's a jackass (laughs)
Well
But in case Kanye is serious about this whole POTUS thing
Or as he calls it - Peezy - I do have advice for him
First of all you've got to spend a lot of time dealing with some strange characters who behave like they're on a reality T.V. show
Second, this is second important tip -
Saying that you have a beautiful dark twisted fantasy
Uh, that's what's known as off-message in politics
You can't say something like that
A lot of people who have lost their congressional seats saying stuff like that
And number three
Do you really think that this country is going to elect
A Black guy from the south side of Chicago
With a funny name
To be President of The United States?
That is crazy
[Raila Odinga]
Let me tell you a story
There's a minister from Nigeria [?]
Who went on a tour of Malaysia
Shown the highways that they were constructing in Malaysia
And then in the evening was treated to dinner in the residence of that minister
There he found a nice mansion
A swimming pool
A nice supper set and dinner set
So at dinner he asked host
"how did you manage this house?"
The host took him to the balcony and said
"look yonder - you see that highway there?"
"Yes"
"10% here"
