In Fact It Is Kanye Himself Who Subsequently Breaks This Mold of Clarity, via the Utilization of Ambiguous Language, in the Chorus That Follows. for Instance, We All Have a General Understanding of What It Means When Someone Says They’re Trying to ‘Keep Their Faith’. but Then the Title, Which Once Again Doesn’t Have Any Specific Meaning, Is Uttered.

The-Dream Serves as the Lead Vocalist of the Refrain Which Follows Shortly Thereafter. Like Kanye, He Is Also ‘Trying to Keep His Faith’. but Simultaneously, He Desires to Increase It Also. or Rather, More to the Poetic Point Is That He Is Looking for Divine Intervention Concerning His Own Internal Spiritual Battles. So He Reads Like Someone Who Is Having a Difficult Time Maintaining His Godly Beliefs in the World.

And Perhaps the Second Verse, as Led by Kelly Price, Reveals Why He Feels So. in This Segment the Vocalist Is Depicted as Someone Who Is Being Oppressed by the Powers That Be, So to Speak. These Are Those Who Persecute, I. E. Take Advantage Of, “The Weak”. Against Such Odds She Feels Overwhelmed. So She Is Looking to a Higher Power to Protect Her. but on a More Global Scale, She Is Also Requesting Divine Intercession in Righting the Wrongs of the World.

Now the Beginning of the Third Verse, Which Follows Directly Thereafter, Has Been Interpreted as Chance Putting up a Defense for Jesus. but Considering How Kelly’s Section Ended, It Is Also Arguable That He Is Stating Something Like a Willingness to Protect Spiritual Rebels, If You Will, Such as Himself.

“Ultralight Beam” by Kanye West (Ft. Chance the Rapper, Kelly Price, Kirk Franklin & the-Dream)

Direct Answer • Key Takeaway

First of All Concerning the Title of This Track, in the Chorus Kanye Seems to Synonymize “Ultralight Beam” with “A God Dream”. but to Note, the Titular Term Actually Originated from a Freestyle Session He Conducted Alongside Chance the Rapper and Justin Bieber, the Latter of Whom Didn’t Make the Final Cut of the Song.
