Lyrics of Jail by Kanye West

intro

Take what you want
Take everything
Take what you want
Take what you want

verse

Better that I change my number, so you can't explain
Violence in the night, violence in the night

verse

Priors, priors, do you have any priors?
Well, that one time, I'll be honest
I'll be honest, we all liars, let it go

pre-chorus

I'll be honest, we all liars
I'll be honest, we all liars
I'm pulled over and I got priors
Guess we going down, guess who's going to jail?

hook

Guess who's going to jail tonight?
Guess who's going to jail tonight?
Guess who's going to jail tonight?
God gon' post my bail tonight

verse

Don't you curse at me on text, why you try to hit the flex?
I hold up, like, "What?" I scroll, I scroll up like, "Next"
Guess who's getting 'exed? Like, next
Guess who's getting 'exed?
You made a choice, that's yo' bad, single life ain't so bad
But we ain't finna go there, something's off, I'll tell you why
Guess who's going to jail tonight?
What a grand plan to sell you out
I could scream and shout, let it out

pre-chorus

I'll be honest, we all liars
I'll be honest, we all liars
I'm pulled over and I got priors
Guess we going down, guess who's going to jail tonight?

hook

Guess who's going to jail tonight?
Guess who's going to jail tonight?
Guess who's going to jail tonight?
God gon' post my bail tonight

verse

God in my cell, that's my celly
Made in the image of God, that's a selfie
Pray five times a day, so many felonies
Who gon' post my bail? Lord, help me
Hol' up, Donda, I'm with your baby when I touch back road
Told him, "Stop all of that red cap, we goin' home"
Not me with all of these sins, casting stones
This might be the return of The Throne (Throne)

verse

Hova and Yeezus, like Moses and Jesus
You are not in control of my thesis
You already know what I think 'bout think pieces
'Fore you ask, he already told you who he think he is
Don't try to jail my thoughts and think pre-cents
I can't be controlled with programs and presets
Reset
On my cell, in my cell tonight
Don't have to see you to touch you
This is what braille look like, it's on sight, woo, woo, woo
If they take me to jail, call my girl, tell her, send my mail
We know what Hell look like, still, it's a hell of a life, yikes

hook

Guess who's going to jail tonight?
Guess who's going to jail tonight?
Guess who's going to jail tonight?
God gon' post my bail tonight
