Discover the story of the song > Saint Pablo – Kanye West

The protagonist is talking about how he can't say no to people, even though he and his partner are struggling financially. He feels like people are calling him crazy on social media and the media is criticizing his spending. But he believes that he's the most influential person of his generation and he doesn't need to listen to conventional thinking or Hollywood producers. The chorus talks about looking at the church in the night sky and wondering where God is in the protagonist's nightlife, and the final verse is sung by Sampha, who talks about feeling invisible and wishing for someone to stand by him.
