"Made It" (also known as "Opipsy") is an unreleased song by Kanye West that was created in 2020 during the sessions for his album of the time, DONDA: WITH CHILD.[1] The song features Kanye on the chorus and only one verse from Playboi Carti as well as backing vocals from Justin Austin and choir preset-based production from Ojivolta.
Production[]
The song features a beat based around a choir preset from Ojivolta as well as backing vocals from Justin Austin. The song runs at a tempo of 88 BPM in the E key with a major mode.
Background[]
The initial freestyle dates back to November 19, 2020, where Kanye freestyled over a completely different beat for 6 minutes.[2] Though further versions of the song do not utilize this beat, the beat was given to several other artists to work with (See "UNLIMITED").[3]
Kanye's vocals from the song were taken off the piano beat and would be placed onto a choir preset-based beat on December 6th.[4] Carti would record for this beat.[5] Justin Austin wouldn't record for the song until December 23rd.[6] The song was on a track list that was slated for release on New Year's, though the album had not been finished at that point and had been pushed back further.[7]
Going into 2021, the song was brought back for the Pio Pico Art Gallery sessions for Donda. The song was first brought back on May 25th of that year to be cut down, though most notable was worked on during June of that year where RZA was said to have recorded a feature.[8] Carti was also said to have recorded his verse on this copy of the song and his verse has been described to sound like "F33l Lik3 Dyin 2".
Though the song was discontinued past this point, leaker waterfalls would take version 5 of the song that had left opens for Kanye and sent it to British rapper Lancey Foux using a hacked member of Carti's team's account to trick him into thinking it's legitimate. Lancey would record for the song and the song would leak as "OPIPSY". Though the song isn't technically real, it's real in the sense that all the vocals are legitimate and under the idea that they were recording for the actual song.[9]
The song was evidently brought back in 2025 for BULLY as Ty Dolla $ign would play a reference he recorded for the song on December 7th of 2025 that was located in his BULLY folder.[10]

[Intro: Kanye West]
Through the lowest chances, made it
Through the highest of they freight, made it
[Chorus: Kanye West & Playboi Carti]
Made it, made it
Made it, made it
Through the times, uh
Through the hard times, to the hills
Made it, made it
Ah, they used to say, my loss abandoned
My soul caved in, in
I'm goin' up yonder, they love don't matter
Made it, made it, made it
Made it
Oh, we made it
(So few) Made it
Made it, made it, made it, made it, made it
Made it, made it, made it, made it, made it, made it (I gotta thank God I made it)
[Bridge: Kanye West & Playboi Carti]
Through the lowest chances, made it
Through the highest of they freight, made it (God)
[Chorus: Kanye West]
Made it, made it

[Verse: Playboi Carti]
Black glasses on, like the Lost Boys
I'm from Hahn Woods, I used to be a broke boy
Cop cars pull up, yeah, I gotta run
Can't let the cop kill me with his damn gun
Laid in the street, blood in my lungs
Thinking about my life, thinking about my son
If I die, everything done
If I die, my opps won
I'm married to the money, not a girl
Love is the strangest thing in the world
[Chorus: Kanye West & Playboi Carti]
Made it, made it
Through the times, uh
Through the hard times, to the hills
Made it, made it
Ah, they used to say, my loss abandoned
My soul caved in, in
I'm goin' up yonder, they love don't matter
Made it, made it, made it
Made it (Oh, oh)
Oh, we made it (Talk to 'em Ye)
(So few) Made it
Made it, made it, made it, made it, made it
Made it, made it, made it, made it, made it, made it
[Bridge: Kanye West]
Through the lowest chances, made it
Through the highest of their freight, made it
[Chorus: Kanye West & Playboi Carti]
Made it, made it
Made it, made it
Through the times, uh, through the hard times, to the hills
Made it, made it (I lost my heart, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Ah, they used to say, my loss abandoned
My soul caved in, in
I'm goin' up yonder, they love don't matter
Made it, made it, made it
Made it
Oh, we made it
(So few) Made it
Made it, made it, made it, made it, made it
Made it, made it, made it, made, made, made it
