"LOSING YOUR MIND" is a song released by Kanye West as a part of his demo studio album, BULLY V1 (2025).[1] The song features production done by West and AI reference vocals.
Production[]
The song features very prominent samples of Can's 1970 song "Vitamin C" and Raury and Jaden's 2016 song "Losing Your Mind", which interpolates the first sample.[2] Both of the songs are covered with Kanye AI. The song runs at a tempo of 117 BPM in the E key with a minor mode and a time signature of 4/4.
Background[]
The song was created some time in late-2024 and appeared in a track listing for the BULLY album made in December for the BULLY short film.[3] The song was continued to be worked on into 2025 and was first teased in a snippet that was recorded during Kanye's wife Bianca Censori's film premiere on February 23rd.[4]
BULLY (Film)[]
The song was included in one of the latest versions of the BULLY short film that was shared by Kanye himself from March 19, 2025.[5] Afterwards Kanye would take to X (fka Twitter) to announce his newfound disdain towards AI, meaning it's possible a new version of the song excluding AI may exist, though it's not confirmed as "MELROSE" is the only song he himself has confirmed to rerecord for.[6]
Later, due to sample clearance issues due to the Pomme sample on "HIGHS AND LOWS", this song alongside all the others had been taken down by Kanye himself to avoid further legal troubles.
Lyrics[]
[Verse 1: Ege Bamyasi]
Her daddy got a big aeroplane
Her mommy holds all the family cash
A beautiful rose is standing at the corner
She is living in and out of tune
[Chorus: Raury]
Hey, you!
You're losing, you're losing, you're losing, you're losing your mind
Hey, you!
You're losing, you're losing, you're losing, you're losing your mind
[Verse 2: Ege Bamyasi]
Monster press machine on her body
She is stepping on quicksand
A beautiful rose is standing at the corner
She is living in and out of tune
[Chorus: Raury]
Hey, you!
You're losing, you're losing, you're losing, you're losing your mind
Hey, you!
You're losing, you're losing, you're losing, you're losing your mind
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro: Raury]
You’re losing, you’re losing, you’re losing, you’re losing your mind
Trivia[]
- Though released, the track's real title is still unclear. This is due to all 10 of the other track's names being disclosed the day of release though this one's name hasn't due to it only appearing in the one film in which the filenames had not been disclosed.
