Kanye West has shared a poem about being “dead.” In the poem, he wrote, “No one wanted to tell me I was DEAD / And only people that would talk to me were in my head. No one wanted to tell me I was DEAD / Only people who loved me visit in their dreams instead.” He added, “My kids would dance for me in a home I once led.”
He also addressed the media in the poem, saying, “Every thing was wrong in the press that I read.” He added, “I found out one day at the newsstand in purgatory / There was a front page article of my murderer’s story. I was so surprised at what it said / This info is for the living / And surprise… You’re DEAD.”
Kanye captioned the poem, “I will not explain this new piece for the explanation destroys the mystery and magic of true love and puts it in a box that can be counted. Art is subjective Art only works when it is the artist absolute truth Someone’s truth can be another persons lie.”
