Kanye West - Bittersweet Poetry Lyrics

Top 3 worst songs on GRADUATION:
1. Drunk and hot girls
2. Good life
3. Barry Bonds

NBA Knowledge Keep Barry Bonds and Good Life out of this 😔

Best to worst Kanye Albums
1. MBDTF
2. CD
3. LR
4. Grad
5. TLOP
6. 808s
7. Jesus is king
8. Yeezus
9. Ye

I miss those days.

I discovered this track 11 years after it came out

Very Unique Beat

Imagine if Kayne came out with this today with his Jesus is King album cause he keep saying God talk to me now I'm this song would have been dope in is still is today but just imagine this song being released today

JoyFul Joyful Kanye makes music for the future so I agree with you on this one. Would of been fire if he released it now but real Ye fans like yourself and I know it was released perfectly for us, we enjoy Ye music anytime.

Where has this been my whole life?

Was this a bonus track on Graduation? I have Good Night cause I bought the album on iTunes.

I miss the old Kanye....😧

Man, if only he had replaced Drunk & Hot Girls and Barry Bonds with Good Night and Bittersweet Poetry.... Graduation woulda been pretty much flawless

And imagine if BitterSweet Poetry was the first single

I miss the ole Kanye

2019🔥

2007-2009 best years of my life!!! 2010 gets an honorable mention

this is every relationship when you hwve bpd

The chorus ft. is lowkey asf. 11 years later and I'm just realizing its John Mayer lmao

Jake me too!!! Haha

If modern John Mayer collaborated with old Kanye, the world would never be the same again.

Top 5 album of all-time

Why this ain’t on the radio?

This hennesseyyyy... uh!

It's gonna be the death of me

Mbdtf or late registration is his best album

Did anyone catch Keyshia Cole vocals

Still love this track ❤️

That melody could make any man cry

Your gonaaaa be the death of meeee

Kanyee foreverrrrr

2019 am here.............

This album truly sucks. My opinion, we all have the right to one. Plus freedom to voice our opinion's.....FOR NOW.

you didn't like Good Morning? Stronger? I Wonder? Can't Tell Me Nothing? Flashing Lights? Everything I am? Good Night? Bittersweet Poetry?

@Alexander Saiko I did like flashing lights. To be honest, but compared to his other albums I just thaught it would be little better. Maybe he was trying for a different sound. I give him an A for effort.

@Ron Banks i think this album, like all his other ones was amazing

@Alexander Saiko that's cool, we all have our likes and dis-likes. The one thing i can say is that he is very talented. Weather i like an album or not, he has amazing talent. And nobody can take that away from him. Ok dude ill probably run into you in another comment section, so till next time ttyl.

They don’t make it like this anymore

Now this Hennessy, is gonna be the death of me.

I know the Juniors and Seniors of the years 2007 - 2008 had a beautiful inspiration to graduate high school after listening to this album

and there is me who began school in 2007 when i was 5

I brought this album the day it released. It inspired me to literally graduate middle school with the picture of the album cover on top of my cap

A lot of kids in this generation says Kanye is wack as a hip hop artist... You're just too young to understand what essence of what his music meant to the older people who grew up listening to his music. You really have no idea what Kanye is fully capable of.

underrated

12 years later this still my jam

Kanye is the next big musical movement since the beatles. Just facts.

Classic

man this song is the first song that made me actually cry. My ex-stepdad had a playlist on his computer, he left it in our room and we would listen to his music all the time. he had some good ass choices. This, Big Brother, Seduction (Eminem), Beautiful (Eminem), Pimpin All Over the World (Ludacris), Juicy (Biggie), and then Drop the World and a few other songs. When I was 14, I got in trouble a lot so I didnt get to play a lot of video games. I spent most of the time reading and listening to music and when this song came on let me tell you I vibed. I vibed to another dimension. I would give anything to be 14, just starting high school again. There's so much shit I would have done differently. One of those things is saving that bastard's playlist to a flashdrive and putting in on my laptop. The other is finishing the Naruto manga and Maximum Ride series.

#MAGA #blexit #KAG

See what I want so much, should never hurt this bad...

we need to make this collab happen again

Thanks Kanye!

Classic.

I can see Chance the Rapper be on this. Anyone else?

Omg I can't believe I found this song I honestly haven't heard it since it was brand new Damn. !!I love it CLASSIC AF

All these comments are from 3-6 years ago. Damn 😔

Astro Lord you late nigga

That's beautiful

And this is still a DOPE track!

Im with you bro

Best Kanye song, hands down.

First comment in 3 years 😎😎

JOSH, THE AUTHOR sup bro

Only a couple more days until WAVES

I feel like I've heard that melody at the start from somewhere else, anyone know where it could be from?

if this was swapped with drunk and hot girls, the album would be 10/10

They need to just put it on the album!!

Definitely should be Barry Bonds. That’s the only track I don’t like on Graduation

@Nol Dur hel nah, the production on that song is dope

Play that song loud it bumps. The production is dope even though the lyrics aren’t that good.

barry bonds and drunk and hot girls should have been removed, this and good night should have been on the album

not on spotify

Best tracks on Graduation:

1. The Glory

2. Everything I Am

3. Bittersweet Poetry

Listen to "Good Night", a bonus track from the album

1. Everything I Am (DJ Premier co-produced that, need I say more?)

2. I Wonder (interesting fact: Drake's favourite song from his entire catalogue).

3. Flashing Lights (based solely on the lavish synth-driven production. Nothing on Graduation sounds like it. Its sleek, stylish and futuristic even after 11 years)

flashing lights and stronger are overrated imo my top 3 is bittersweet, homecoming, and good morning. Champion and I Wonder are great too tho

Agree with 2 and 3 but my 1 is good night

Love The glory but what about flashing lights or big brother but I also think Kanye’s homecoming track needs a bit more love

We breaking up again we making up again That shit crazy.

you don;t see how was suppose to be...

this song is so fitting considering what just went down on ye's twitter

I remember getting depressed to the point where I wouldnt eat.Then Id play this song hoping and praying that someone loved me.

Good Times.Good Times.

+Princess BLARITY <3

I need this in my spotify !

Cant believe im only hearing this now. Guess I will be listening to this and Real Friends until SWISH.

where did this guy go

+Carl Reed never left. listen to his recent tracks

+DojoMuppet I have and no this guy is gone....long gone...

still bittersweet in 2016

"Now this Hennessy It's gonna be the death of me" 2 years later, he drinks a bottle and he speaks with Taylor

From Kanye to The Dead... John Mayer is the shit...

DAaaaym Keisha Cole's voice sends shivers down my spine. But flip this song is so flipping true, hits right there where it hurts in the figurative heart... Thanks for the post.

beat sounds like "celebration" if it was performed by kk slider

old kanye <3

what happen to this kanye??

+BuMBO BEe shut up listen to his recent tracks. never left

He performed this on Def Poetry Jam

NIGGA WHERE WAS THIS TRACK?

LOL I KNOW RIGHT

like I had to go download this

@***** yea i got it on my phone now

+Dessaw cool

Damn I said this 3 years ago and I love this song

Miss this kanye :/

this song makes me a little sad

+Thatcheesefreak i feel u

Me too the melodies just hit that spot 😂😭

+Thatcheesefreak Definitely, I can't listen to a lot of good stuff at times for that reason.

I know what you mean

it's bittersweeet

R.I.P Old Kanye

+Ain'tLegit360 fuck yourself

+Ain'tLegit360 Fuck off.

+oh yeah! monster energy! !!!family guy!!! hes just the average black guy mang chill

Omg the memories the memories

"I don't want you, but I need you". kinda sucks...

this song is not on the album because its the wrong album, it should be on the College Dropout guys. One of my favorite songs

+A.G.E. no, it was on the japanese release only. It's on graduation.

@A BCDEFGH  just searched it up you're right, sorry for misleading guys but still a dope jam!

@A.G.E. all good

Drunk n hot girls smh

could've fit on 808s & heartbreak

+Justin TX It's too Explicit

yea u right

@Justin TX Still a great song tho, really could've been a classic if it was'nt a Japanese bonus track

i knew i shouldnt have clicked on this song. this song really is bittersweet to me. reminisce of good times

This song reminds me of my fucked arr ranged marriage!! Whew glad that shit is over!! Kanye is telling the TRUTH, on this record!!! And John Mayer did his thing, on the hook no doubt!! This song is "Sick" like the flu!! Preach on, Brother Kanye'!!

ive not heard this in tiiiiiiiime classic

No way this got taken down

Miss this Kanye

the beginning sounds like an anime opening

@Izzy1UP I'm pretty sure this was a bonus track released in Japan lol so I guess it's pretty fitting.

@King Jay you are correct :)

+King Jay he sampled Patti labell you are my friend i notice it from the start of it

+BlackBuddha I think it's supposed to sound like a graduation march.

This is how I feel about leaving high school

College is 100x more fun, I promise you that.

True to that Thomas

Love graduation

holy sit what have i been missing?!

See what I want so much, should never hurt this bad....real life situation right now.

This should've replaced "Drunk & Hot Girls"

You mean barry bonds you fucking mong

@Josh J chill 😂

@Phil Hickman sorry I get defensive over drunk and hot girls hahahahaha

@Josh J🤣 I dont understand the hate towards it either tbh man

@Phil Hickman that barry bonds tho what the hell was yeeezy thinking hahahahah

Why was this only released on Graduation in Japan? This could have been a classic. It is way better than Barry Bonds & Drunk & hot girls.

+jujuandjesus I think he should of just done Graduation with no features to be honest bro but I respect your opinion. Can't wait for his new album man!!

@Joe Spencer All day got me hype as hell

+Joe Spencer Dude, I can't wait. But until then, I'll be listening to this "All Day" watch?v=bsrc3vCL13E

+Joe Spencer honestly i hate barry bonds.

+oh yeah! monster energy! !!!family guy!!! me too this is better

This art work was done by an artist from japan thats why its in the japanese bonus track i guess

@kevin st hubert Oh, that's why I don't know this song. ok. Makes sense then. I'm like, I can't remember this on the album. Lol

Ye the artist name is takashi murakami he said some of those lyrics on def jam poetry too

"see what I want so much 
should never hurt this bad
never did this b4,
iz what the virgin said . . "

been yearz

Memories 09

broooo!!! keysha cole!!!

Ah man, brings back those memories when I used to listen to this all the time

haha.. I never was attracted to this song, until the moment when I didn't have free arms while carrying school books.

@***** I never listened to this song till the end. when I heard the whole song I started to like it. 

Profile picture sauce?
