West has raised eyebrows over the lyrics in the music video for his new Adolf Hitler-inspired song, in which he targets his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, and their ongoing custody issues.

The rapper co-parents North, 11; Saint, 9; Chicago, 7; and Psalm, 5, with the reality TV star, who has reportedly hired bodyguards to protect her amid his erratic rants.

He now blames her for his recent antisemitic outbursts on X, claiming he "turned into a Nazi" because she prevented him from seeing his children.

"With all of my money and fame, I still can't get my kids back/ With all of my money and fame, I still don't get to see my children," the "Donda" crooner said in the "Heil Hitler" song, per the Daily Mail.

West's feud with Kardashian took a wild turn when he claimed, during an interview with DJ Akademiks, that he regrets getting the SKIMS founder pregnant.

"That was my fault," he said. "I didn't want to have children with this person after the first two months of being with her, but that wasn't God's plan."

"I don't got the name and likeness ownership, or at least 50-50 with my kids," the rapper explained to Akademiks at some point, referring to the "nuclear" war between them over their children. "So, how's it joint custody?"

"My kids are celebrities, and I don't have the say so," West continued. "So this white woman and this white family have the control of these highly influential black kids that are half the children of Ye."
