THIS ONE HERE Lyrics – Ye | [from “BULLY”

Clocking in at 3:18, this one’s a James Blake special, with Ye, No I.D., and Okami on the boards crafting these swelling, soul-drenched builds that hit like a sermon in a storm. It’s hip-hop with that urgent, almost spiritual drive—think gospel echoes meeting trap’s raw pulse, where the chorus loops like a mantra: “Kick out that ego right out of the door, come on, it’s go time.” Penned by Kanye, Blake, No I.D., Don Toliver, and Fat Money, the lyrics unpack that brutal fight for survival, shedding old skins for fresh starts, healing from heartbreak, and staring down the dark before dawn breaks. It’s motivational without the cheese, more like a pep talk from someone who’s bled for every inch.

First previewed back at that intimate Burberry afterparty in London on September 26, 2022—one of three Blake-helmed cuts that had everyone buzzing—this track’s been a ghost in Ye’s vault, loosely eyed for Vultures before landing here. BULLY’s shaping up as a 13-track gut punch on resilience and reinvention, weaving released singles like PREACHER MAN, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, and DAMN (from that June 2025 EP drop) with deeper cuts such as WHITE LINES, CIRCLES, and MISSION CONTROL featuring The World Famous Tony Williams.

The title track anchors the chaos, while THIS ONE HERE slots in around the ninth spot, bridging the lows to a rising-sun bridge that screams hope. Delays hit hard—pushed from June to now—but Ye’s kept the fire alive with Spotify tweaks and Insta teases. Fans can pre-save it on Spotify for the full tracklist and drop alerts.

Ye’s at this fascinating pivot, two years past the Vultures frenzy and through the noise of it all, pouring that unfiltered intensity into BULLY like it’s his way of flipping the script on every doubter. From Graduation’s shine to Donda’s depths, this feels like him reclaiming the throne on his terms—fewer collabs, more confession, proving the vision never quits.
