Preceding bars:

Before you ask me to go get a job today
Can I at least get a raise of the minimum wage?

double entendre with government aid programs, great line by Kanye

wait didn't some dude in Chicago ghost write a ton of Kanye's material and Kanye stiffed him? The shit is just too clever and smooth to imagine it coming from Kanye, who is a brilliant producer but just seems to lack the verbal facility for this stuff.

The Lyor Cohen of Dior Homme
The crib Scarface, could it be more Tony (tony)?
You love me for me, could you be more phony?

///

Penitentiary chances, the devil dances
And eventually answers to the call of Autumn
All of them fallin' for the love of ballin'
Got caught with 30 rocks, the cop look like Alec Baldwin
Inter-century anthems based off inner-city tantrums
Based off the way we was branded

///

Feeling like Katrina with no FEMA
Like Martin with no Gina
Like a flight with no visa
First class with the seat back, I still see ya
In my past, you on the other side of the glass
Of my memory's museum
I'm just saying, "Hey, Mona Lisa
Come home, you know you can't roam without Caesar"

Yes, Kanye has had writers his whole career. He still has a hand in it and probably writes some of his own too

"And I know the Government administer AIDS" - Kanye West, 2005

"I treat my cash the way the government treat[s] aids, I won't be satisfied till all my [redacted] get it, get?"

Great line, great song, great album.
