It was the first in a series of staccato posts where he added, “I love all people. God forgive me for the pain I’ve caused. I forgive those who have caused me pain. Thank you God.”

As for the sudden change of lump of coal heart, Ye explained: “I simply got a FaceTime from my kids and I wanna save the world again.”

He continued: “The earth itself is in God’s Kingdom. GOD CALLS FOR PEACE. Share peace. Share love.”

A video to the track was also added to his page.
