When Kanye performed "Flashing Lights" while on tour in 2009 and 2010, he used the instrumental of "Flashing Lights 2" and even sang the hook for the song which goes as follows:

"Hey everybody, tonight's the night

I've been waiting for my whole life

Who would've known what it was like

Running from those flashing lights"[1]

In a video, Kanye was seen singing the hook to the song along with Charlie Wilson, who was also planned to be on the song. However, it's unknown if he ever recorded.[2] Sometime after this, the song was scrapped and some of its production was reworked into Drake's 2010 song, "Find Your Love".[1]
