You people in the comments are completely missing what Kanye is getting at.
Yeah
 he's a bit faded in the vid, but he's getting
 at how many people grow up very fucking repressed. Whether it be by the governm
ent, by society, by religion, by parents, or
 whatever. And when you have these forces working against you, it is hard to tru
ly express yourself and be creative and create
 real art. When he walked up and interrupted Taylor Swift's speech 6 years ago,
that is not unlike when I feel inspired and
 pick up a guitar and make a new song. Yeah, to the outsider he looks like a com
plete asshole with no respect for anyone else,
 but he was expressing himself and letting his emotions go. And he addresses the
 repercussions of that a bit, and how he's
 still paying for it at times. But if he didn't act on what he felt, he wouldn't
 have made College Dropout, or Twisted Fantasy.
 I think that is what he is really trying to say. The fact that so many of you c
an't grasp that just proves to me that most
 people really do not take the time to get in touch with their creative side. So
 many people just eat, sleep, work, fuck, die
and create kids that do the same fucking thing. Fuck that. Make art. Life is too
 fucking short not to.
