The bassline is fucking disgusting, some Low End Theory shit.When the other instruments come in... and then those strings, and the beat drops. I'm glad Kanye got some real drums. God damn, those fucking strings - are Dr. Dre and Eminem paying attention? This is how you create emotion with them, not those lame tired pseudo-Goth shits you think are so cool. My face still twists up when I hear that shit, and I've played this shit at least twenty times. As for Common's verse... what was Rakim going to call his last album again? This is the best intro I've heard since the intro to Jay-Z's Dynasty. Young is fucking RAPPING.

I wanna be as free as the spirits of those who left
I’m talking, Malcolm, Coltrane, my man Yusef
Through death grew conception, new breath and resurrection
For Moms, new steps in the direction, in the right way
Told inside is where the fight lay
And everything a nigga do may not be what he might say
Chicago nights they, stay on the mind
But I write many lives, they lay on these lines
Waving signs of the times many say the grind’s on the mind
Shorties blunted out and everyone wanna rhyme
Bush pushin’ lies, killas immortalized
We got arms but won’t reach for the skies
Waitin’ for the lord to rise I look into my daughter’s eyes
And realize I’ma learn through her
The messiah, might even return through her
If I’ma do it, I gotta change the world through her
Furs and a Benz Gramps wantin’ em
Demons and old friends Pops they huntin’ em
The chosen one from the land of the frozen sun
Where drunk nights get remembered more than sober ones
Walk like warriors we were never told to run
Explored the world to return to where my soul begun
Never lookin’ back or too far in front of me
The present is a gift and I just wanna BE

What more can I fucking say after THAT?
