Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It ain't up to you no more
God's Country, this is war
Hold up son, I make it storm
Rolex on, I make it pour
It ain't up to you no more
God's Country, this is war
Ya'll are talkin' to the boss
I'ma talk to you
Wakin' up, I see the light
I been up and it's alright
See they leapin' up my legion
I teared it up and it’s a bite
Demon time I got it on me
Tear it up but overnight
I tinted up and that’s my psyche
(Psyche) , I put it on, but was it right?
Uh, God's Country, not in
With me
Hand up, I got the tribe, this is door
Seated right from out the doors
And they ducking for the fans
Got 'em jumping with no hands (Hands)
It ain't up to you no more
God's Country, this is war
Hold up son, I make it storm
Rolex on, I make it pour
It ain't up to you no more
God's Country, this is war
‘Member signing for my morals
Ya'll are talkin' to thе boss
I'ma talk to you

When he says, "Hold up son, I make it storm," he is putting forth that he is not powerful enough to control the storm, but he has faith that God will control the storm for him.
In the next few lines, Kanye talks about his values and how he is principled. When he says, "I 'member signin' for my morals / Ya'll are talkin' to the boss / I'ma talk to you," he is saying that he has signed an agreement to keeping his morals firm, and he will not compromise them to anyone.
