Atmosphere are gearing up to release their eighth studio album, Southsiders on May 6th, 2014. Listen to their latest single above, "Kanye West," which isn't as much a track about the rapper as it is about evoking his passion in the lyrics. "I wanted to write a song about loving something so much that you submit to the moment," says rapper Slug on their official website. And there are few people who feel harder or care more than Kanye West.
Atmosphere will start touring April 18th in support of their new album. Check out more tour dates and music from Atmosphere on the Rhymesayers official website.
Atmosphere "Kanye West" Lyrics:
[Hook]:
Put your hands in the air like you really do care, oh yeah
Put your hands in the air like you really do care, oh yeah
Put your hands up like you give a damn and a fuck, put 'em up, put 'em up
Put your hands in the air like you really do care, oh yeahShe said she want somebody she could take care of
And right then is when we paired up
Pull a chair up and make a space for yourself
You should taste what I felt
It's probable that those on the bottom gonna hold you accountable
It's lonely at the top and it's also hostile
Everyone got they own course full of obstacles
Don't let your heart grow cold like a popsicle
She said she want someone to treat her as an equal
And right then we started speeding towards Reno
Burning rubber in a burgundy Regal
Fly like a dove then dive like an eagle
I'm a 70 deuce, that year was a classic
Buzz got loose and we here tryna catch it
She said that she was unimpressed
That's when I stood up and did the Kanye West[Hook]
She said she needed a place to feel free
And right then we started building a team
Trying to make a better perfect, a little purpose
The only thing for certain is the sleep disturbance
But ever since people started measuring time
We been looking for an easy way to settle our mind
Take a load off or take your clothes off
Or shut your eyes and roll straight for the roadblock
She say she needed something that she could blame
And right then is when I offered my name
It's the only thing I got that'll always remain
So Imma share it with you so you can complain too
She say she want to find a cure for death
I knew she meant that in the purest sense
But when I finally die put on your Sunday best
Then throw your hands in the sky like Kanye West[Hook]
You need to prove nothing to me
The time got a price but the trouble is free
If we gonna struggle Imma do it comfortably
And live life like I love to breatheYou need to prove nothing to me
The time got a price but the trouble is free
If we gonna struggle Imma do it comfortably
And live life like I love to breatheOh yeah, oh yeah
