Uh... Wassup... Show these niggas how the west was won...
Yeah... if you dont know my name by now
Just call me any rapper, could get it
Any month, any week, any day, any minute
Im knocking ballers off of their pivot in this scrimmage
They painting pictures with no description
Like a witness, who took an oath of no snitching
Mind ya business, like the best entrepreneur, I be diminished
By the metaphor, in the following sentence
I told you I does it a dozen times, you must of thought I was lyin
Yeah Im nice but Im not too kind
So dope I can say the same line two times
So dope I can say the same line two times
I dont care about your age, your creed, or color
The squares in your circle or the angles you covered
If you in front of your girl, your cousin or mother
I spread your ass out in the street like butter
You got your toast, well Im on a quip with a quote
So a bullet leaving your chambers like a word that I spoke
Soul brother number dos, Im a breathe in hundreds smoke
Driven down central by a nigga in some Locs
Never going back to Cali cause the nigga never leave
Even when Im out the state, you see me, you see L.A
And aint nobody fucking with me, like a virgin with Klamydia
Recognize, Top Dawg Familia
Yeah... its so amazing guru
Jazzmatazz, the sound thinking of yoo-hoo
Scrap, Im going all in, its the top dog
With them Top Dawgs, nigga Im not your
Average rhyme, put together, the architects
Build raps, sell em his starter kits, the beast boy
Fat boy get confused with monster
Bury niggas like Contra, Im your savior
Dont call that man upstairs, cause if them stares
Compare to me, look you shook like Mobb and them
Been say, dark as Sinkay
Be hell to fate, Ive been great, ya dig?
How could he, rap was such a force
When Ive been doing this since car hard jackers that figured four rock
More problem, gangster, goblin
Still in this tower with no robin, get that?
Stacks in my jeans, yeah they know the deal snoopy
Lovin big bitches but they dont fit in my two seat
Turnt the heater and bang, like my niggas from the hunters
Shout out Bubble, what up Getta
Sticking to my plans, rap for my fans
Hootchie, lent that groupie that dick, get a Trans
With no album, no show, got em golo
Been about the turf since Merf was on the ocho
Thugging like amone, word to the chrome
Lights excite bike, Im rushing to the throne
Spitta, fat nigga jerking like he skinny
New era Henny and a new pair of pennies
Im off my rocker, niggas do me nada
Proud but still in my pradas, ya bitch
Bad Lucc see me now, yeah thats whats up
We the West, its whats up, ya dig?
Aiming out the cannon of bazookas
100 ways to fuck you, over, no Karma Sutra
West coast till my death bed, cutting up
Somebody fucking with Mr. Edward Scissorhands
Ive been the man before youve been the man
And Ive been the mans equilibrium until its worrisome
Aiming for his gut like Caesarians
Throw me in aquariums, I bet Ill grab a shark
Snatch out his heart, freeze it then preserve it in a jar
Im all these niggas bumping like stickers at the end of a car
Aka K Dot commit a sin, press record
I kill em every time, this aint a free verse
This a crime, you rehearse, or duck the bomb
Big ass W, and I throw it up like powder in the hands of Lebron, nigga what?
Compton on my raider cap, oh wait, no wait
But we want our spot back, then go nuts
Somebody hand me their jockstrap, I ball everywhere
Pure beast, a bear couldnt even bear
Royal flush, like the feds rolling up
And I fuck with Bad Lucc but never broke a mirror
Yeah, its like that for you other coasts
Im right back in the 87 regal, and the people watch
My wheels peel, like its Motrin
Im a headache for petes sake, you cheapskates
Can never out do me, or better yet do us
Waters run deep, and you fucking around with scuba
Divers with riders sticking their hand inside the cooler
I live in a iceberg, you telling me you cooler?
Im living my dreams and I can kill Freddy Kruger
Bout to run the game in some ran down Pumas
And my name Mr. K Almighty, try to low ball
But she speaks only highly, try me, Q
Lets see how many do it
Put your hands up now, lets see how many truant
Lying to the people, know you want for your doings
Good with this rap talk, Im kinda speaking fluent
Influenced by cocaine, gats, and my dickies
Life in the 50s, swisher sweet wrapped in a sticky
Malt liquor stuffed up in paper bags, got me sparked up
First nigga act up, he getting choked up
Locced up, only seeing .45 from the jeans
You see a nigga work from the spleen, you naw mean?
I be the truth, if Im not, you be holding your tooth
Blessed or not I might bring hell in the booth
Hallelujah Lord Jesus, wish Pac was here to see this
All these niggas sucking penis, straight fag, take a dick
Up in they ass for cash, why most in their chains for jags
You heard about them L.A. niggas
Catch ya ass, strip you out of your Pelham nigga
While Im doing it, screaming out L.A. nigga!
Stay with your mouth, something like the L.A. sinner
T.D. enter-, you dont even get this sinner
Dumb muthafuckas, cause a ruckus, yall suckas
Boss nigga, Schoolboy got a problem to solve
Top Dawg, yall under the paw
The new shit like swine flu, covered in sores
Told ya..
Holding up a W, nigga you aint loving us?
We aint loving you, fuck what youre going through
Rock got a point to prove, this aint your average 16
This a death blow, you running outta petro-
Dont have enough gas, to last with this metro
Dont have enough cash to blast with this Rambo
.45 tucked in my boxers, yeah we slang iron
Fuck around and box ya, Y city shots-a
Welcome to the land of the choppers
Nickerson gardens you better watch us
Ready for the drive-by, on the roof snipe out ya driver
Run around straight to the car, leave no survivors
Thats how we get down, you dont wanna sit down
Better take cover when you see us in your tizzown
West Coast takeover, give the game a makeover
The end is near, you fake rappers, your days over
Red fitted when I step in the place
White t, black jeans, boo yah on my waist
Yeah.. its the rock, HOVA, get it right dawg
Fuck a rap battle, fuck around and get your life lost
Lay the clip off, bust until the hammer break
Knock your head off, when I aim it at your face
Thats that gutter rap, show you where the gutter at
When its beef time we gon bring it where your mother at |
Let em die, dead—Black Hippy
Pfffft—and we dont give a fuck

Black Hippy
Kendrick Lamar
I tell em like this:
Ring the alarm or wake to a bomb
You aint a rapper, you Elton John, holdin your john
I got a ton of croutons in the Louis Vuitton
Thats big bread the chickens are flying flocks when I call em
Paul and Masson, half drunk, stuck in a poem
Light matches underwater while Im bracing the storm
Im cool and Im calm, laid back, smoking a farm
Socking the shit out of niggas till Im breaking my arm
Up in my zone, two blunts, cup of patron
.45 on me, shoot you if you fuck with me wrong
No homo—pause—thats your life and its gone
Flat line you, dont put your life in the song
I never drove a fast car—I almost ran over
Tracy Chapman, she said, Drive slow, I said, Fuck off
Ab-Soul—whasup, yall? Other than your sub-par
Above all? Im a heaven gate—above all

The Black Hippies, the bag full, the bag empty
Spunt it all at the car lot, then crash quickly
Im tryna come with enough power to pass 50
Im talking 50-bill, you niggas dont fit the bill
You niggas dont keep it real, you fake as Pamelas titties
I pound kitties, then hit the club with dogs with me
Tan Polos, no socks, chop Dickies
Tan coupe, no top, bumping Biggie
Blowing sticky, before the group, been a hippy
Nifty fifty, all blue—real Crippy
Big money, long stocks—ask Pippy
Mask on, one sock—I gets busy
I smoke blacks, relax, and watch Walt Disney
Puff squares, pace in circles until Im dizzy
Speakin of Disney—fantasies, I had many

Anyway—every time we in the stu?
We cook that, chop that—whats that? Thats crack

Napped through my final, made enough, richer than Lionel
Fuckin bitches on my job—cummin harder than rhino
Break through the spinal, laid back, bumpin my vinyl
Navigation on the scopes, easy to find em
Find you and Im right behind you—laid back, puffin a blunt
Gat on my lap, constantly talkin shit, Imma dump
Your homies acting charged up, they can still get jumped
Take ya chain, ash the kush for all you punks
However you want, whenever you want, you all can get it
Contagious, its mad syphilis, blazing this God-giftedness
Die over death sentences, flow hot—plus the beat knock
Like J-witnesses, tell em I killed the witnesses
Gifted as twenty Christmases, itchin to blow
Like twenty bitches with mouths that need a dick in it—wow
I ran rap for half a mile then got tired
Laid down and realized that I was lying
You fuckin crazy!
Ha—and every time we in the stu?
We cook that, chop that—whats that? Thats crack
Yeah, homie—this is what we do
3-1-0 shit, 3-2-3, bitch
Ow, nigga, welcome to the zoo, where we—

Classic Timeless rules forever
By the time I start writing when I was thirteen I knew from the jump I wanted something that was original that was classic
I freestyle over anything give me a instrumental
I bet I make bells ring
I bet I make birds sing
It sounds that good
Im so street and Im so hood
And Im intelligent and Im special and Im heaven sent
Haha
When you think about rhymes and style you always want a classic feel so my first introduction to a classic shoe was the moment I stepped in school and said, I want to put something down on paper. I started writing. Everyone in the classroom was wearing Reebok classics
Hip-hop was more than just the music. It was part of culture. It was part of havin style it was part of a whole graffiti and arts
Hot off the press
Hot off success
Look how I dress free, me
Reebok complete |
Reminiscing on when we used to smoke chronic
Now we puffing the kush and Im like
For giving the West Coast CPR
Now here we are, we like to
We can never pay you back
All the shit you did for hip hop and gangsta rap
For that
Without further adieu
Diggy Doc, this one is for you
I remember growing up
Just a Dogg Pound pup bumping G Thang
Its that gin and juice in my cup
And all I knew was N.W.A
Eazy, Yella and Ren, Ice Cube and Dre
Big Snoop, Warren G, Nate Dogg and raised
Kurupt and RBX, the original gang
Bad ass super fly, I can go on for days
D.P.G.C., thats the way I was raised
And motherfucking 2Pac was my shit
Especially when he was rocking on the Doc shit
Killa Cali where it all started
Legacy, me, Im just happy to be a part of it
This west shit
Its history in the making, this is the next step
Californias best kept, yep
Its your own Scoe, Im a Y.A gangsta rider
On behalf of the South Central L.A, we wanna
Reminiscing on when we used to smoke chronic
Now we puffing the kush and Im like
For giving the West Coast CPR
Now here we are, we like to
We can never pay you back
All the shit you did for hip hop and gangsta rap
For that
Without further adieu
Diggy Doc, this one is for you
I remember when it all started
On Alondra, in that small apartment
Burgundy carpet and SEGA cartridges
Pop a flick and blunt ashes all on the garments
Momma of off wine cooler, Magic Johnson played Jordan
I was only four, but its like I heard it before
A house party cracking off of the music the Dr. recorded
And according to my awareness I was more than coherent
A cold listener, mocking that shit like a parrot
My cousins kicking up dust Cripping
They flag, wear it round their hand like a mitton
Aiming, use it for leverage
Shitting on Compton sheriffs like Fuck the Police
Woofers and gold Rollies
Every swap meet should know me
Cause I copped every record that dropped
Dropped a dub just to hear Doc drop
A jewel for the sake of hip-hop
Who ever have thought the moment I seen you on Bullis for Cali love
Fifteen years later youd be saving my life, what
Reminiscing on when we used to smoke chronic
Now we puffing the kush and Im like
For giving the West Coast CPR
Now here we are, we like to
We can never pay you back
All the shit you did for hip hop and gangsta rap
For that
Without further adieu
Diggy Doc, this one is for you |
Ayy, Hit, how we gon lose with shit like this, my nigga?
Im guilty
World-famous, look
Prayin I dont crash while Im flyin down the coast
Trauma from the past, that shit livin inside my soul
Know some gangstas and some hustlers and a few niggas who boast
Would they love me if it fell apart? Shit, who knows
Sendin out a toast to my dawgs, stay ten toes
Call from GTL, damn, you know how shit go
Brodie told me, Zero in with the beam and the scope
Went down for a mop, he aint even clean the floor
Showin love to my closest, gotta appreciate the moment
I dont do this for promotion, I just keep this shit in motion
Thats my slogan, way before the quarantine and shit
My nigga, I was postеd, dirty strap, reported stolen
Raw, uncut, no еdited
Out the trunk with it, back in traffic yet again
Life a movie, aint no way to hit rewind
Its all by calculation and design, look
Prayin I dont crash while Im flyin down the coast
Trauma from the past, that shit livin inside my soul
Know some gangstas and some hustlers and a few niggas who boast
Would they love me if it fell apart? Shit, who knows
Would they love me if it fell apart? Yeah, who knows
Would they love me if it fell apart?
But dont get back and fall again
Im right on time for calls, my friends
The lanes have changed but the trust, it never ends, ends
Never ends
Roll the pack, push the McLaren through Ocean Ave
Mint color millionaires, gon take out the soldier rags
Shit been off a big load, pinky and my wrist froze
Then thought it was Kenpo, my dawg pull in, kick doors
Met a plug from Maryland, air em out, Im arrogant
Clear stones, rare shit, back in traffic yet again
Loadin up the chamber, send the shot, the E chop
When the money talk, the only time I eavesdrop
Cut the lights on em, then I circle back
Flippin back through the drive-thru, servin em fast
Bitch, I came straight off the block, aint no blockin me
HB the origin, the etymology
Prayin I dont crash while Im flyin down the coast
Trauma from the past, that shit livin inside my soul
Know some gangstas and some hustlers and a few niggas who boast
Would they love me if it fell apart? Shit, who knows
Would they love me if it fell apart? Yeah, who knows
Would they love me if it fell apart?
But dont get back and fall again
Im right on time for calls, my friends
The lanes have changed but the trust, it never ends, ends
Never ends
Hit-Boy on the beat and all that
Hit-Boy on the flow and all that

Biggies nephew Big L said I was special

Even Punch said I was sweet
Punchlines and kick hot rhymes till Im burning my feet

Chain no evidence, pass go, motherfuck Confederate
Flags on the back of the medicine
Distributed and peddled in ghettos and
Fuck your heritage, fuck your brainwash detergent
Internet urgent, time travel in purges, every man and virgin
Fuck chatterin sermons
Fuck your church propaganda, only God know the answer
We oblige in a copacetic manner
Camouflage like a sheep, so we slide through the cancer
Lies and deceit, vibe like a Phantom
Dodgin police and paramedic retreats
Wanna fuck yall up for tellin me Your life was the one I want
Been sellin me concepts ever since I swung
From out of the pro tongue, dedicated myself for recreation

Motherfuckers better listen when I spit

Homeboy I Ken Griffey a hitch
And I might Ken Griffey ya bitch

Just give her long pipe til its scrapin her hips
Like a waitress, the way the broad ask for the tip
If you want, just ask for a clip
Ill give ya those for free, no, I wont charge a fee
Just roll up on you, like cut off sleeves
Nobody can cut off the number one rap artist, damn, I am the hardest
Blowin through Nintendo cartridges
To Maybachin it, valet parkin it
Now people arguin who is better?
Them or him, him referring to me
Them referring to the industry
Hands down, Jay left, now give me the crown
Fuck later, Im takin it now
Fuck haters, Im takin em down
With the red beam, red beam, silencer, dont holler it muffle the sound
Bark like ten rottweilers straight from the pound
Straight for the dollas, 745, older Impala, scrapin the ground

Seein another broke tomorrow
You can tell the way I speak begins to stutter
First it was hard for yall to even makin it harder

Your whole budget, hoes love it
But you hate it, cause Im your girls favorite
Nigga, face it, you cant walk in my shoes nor change the sides tryna replace it
As far as rap, I spit in the Matrix
Past reality, nigga actually, I wrote a rhyme where there was no gravity
Thats a whole nother planet
For real holmes, I do damage
Blow up ya city, even ya school campus
Run in ya class while your doin ya standards

Yeah, bang, bang, lets go |
Yeah...
Hit the East Side of the LBC
On a mission trynna find Mr. Warren G
When I jumped off the porch, I was forced into last resort
Of a typical short end, of course where that took us course
Hoarse for yelling out Demons that fought inside of me, talk society how to rejoice
Killers aside of me, privacy obviously was lost
Fraud, Piracy of the streets of my Odyssey
Caught a bullet that probably destroyed
A good kid in a mad city slightly annoyed
I walk out the street with no heat and wanted to beef when im just a vegan
Reeking the scent of a saint, sinner smelling the stars squeezing
Pillars stumbling straight to my melon apparent reason
Probably because im a cousin, cousin of blood that blooded in public
And Kendrick seen with him last weekend, cousin
But you aint no friend of me, instead of Kendrick im Kennedy
Assassinate my character, sure, if thats your remedy
Fair enough, i got enemies, but guess who bang?
But thats the repercussion like when your cousin is cussing a blood and your by yourself at the Compton parade
Good kid, mad city, life or death, is you with me? |
I hold my liquor
But this man can’t handle his weed
Dark and lonely now
On Chicago, south of town
Im on to Indiana
I heard it in the radio now
I cant handle no liquor
And these bitches cant handle me
I cant control my bitches
And my bitches they cant control me
You say you know me, my witches
But you really just know the old me
Bitch, Im back out my coma
Wakin up on your sofa
When I park my Range Rover
Slightly scratch your Corolla
Okay, I smashed your Corolla
Im hanging on a hangover
Five years we been over
Ask me why I came over
One more hit and I can own ya
Baby girl, hes a loner
Baby girl, hes a loner
Late-night organ donor
After that, he disown ya
After that hes just hopeless
Soul mates become soulless
When its over its over
Bitch, Im back out my coma |
That pussy got a spell on me
That pussy got a spell on me
That pussy got a spell on me
That pussy got a spell on me
Hey lil pretty lil, pretty lil, bish you
Walk around with these
Make
That pussy got a spell on me
That pussy got a spell on me
That pussy got a spell on me
That pussy got a spell on me |
Gather round, Im glad everybody came out tonight as we stand on our neighborhood corner, know that this fire thats burning represents the passion you have, listen. Keisha, Tammy, come up front. I recognize all of you, every creed and color, with that being said fuck your ethnicity. You understand that? We gon talk about a lot of shit that concerns you. All of you

Fuck your ethnicity, nigga
Fire burning inside my eyes, this the music that saved my life
Yall be calling it hip-hop, I be calling it hypnotize
Yeah, hypnotize, trapped my body but freed my mind
What the fuck is you fighting for? Aint nobody gon win that war
My details be retail, man, I got so much in store
Racism is still alive, yellow tape and colored lines
Fuck that, nigga look at that line, its so diverse
They getting off work and they wanna see Kendrick
Everybody cant drive Benzs, and I been there, so it make it my business
To give em my full attention, ten-hut! Man, I gotta get my wind up
Man, gotta get down with God cause I got my sins up
Matter of fact, dont mistake me for no fucking rapper
They sit backstage and hide, behind the fucking cameras
I mosh pit, had a microphone and I tossed it
Had a brain, then I lost it, Im out of my mind, so dont
You mind how much the cost is, penny for my thoughts
Everybody, please hold up your wallets
Yeah man, Im the mailman, cant you tell, man?
Going postal, never freeze up, when I approach you
Thats star struck and roast you, oh my... HiiiPower
Im tired of yall, cause everybody lied to yall
And you believe it? Recognize them false achievements
Its treason and Im Tylenol, I knock out when you knock it off
Knock on the doors of opportunity, Im too involved
Im no activist, Im no Einstein before calculus
I was kicking that Math, dropping that science
Like an alchemist, and I be kicking that ass, lyrically Im UFC
If a UFO had came for me, Imma come back with the head of an alien
Dont alienate, my dreams, get it right
Get a life, I got 2, thats a metaphor for the big shit I do
Boy, TMI, TSA, man Im fly, put wings on my back
That a plane or angel? Both like a pilot with a halo, whoa... Gross
I mean, Ive seen so many things come through them, him, her, you
Im just a messenger, yeah, I know lifes a bitch, get the best of her
Put them 3s up, they notice that we up, HiiiPower
And the power in the people and if they dont believe us, theyll die |

Picture perfect, I paint a perfect picture
With these lyrics that Im kicking
Im a west coast chemist
Im a B-L- double O, D shit you niggas know me
You niggas know me when I pull up on your block with a couple homies
Sip that light spliff who’s that snatch ya bitch
Nothing but a g party like Pac in 96
But its 07 no half steppin’
Get outta line no mercy nigga we blast weapons
California economics got me hooked on it like phonics
When the beat drop I drop a bomb like atomic
Got my heat cocked like some type of bird
Big pimpin’ weapon under the fur
Limping’ like a prosthetic leg
But still play the back like bike pegs
La fitted cap pulling your wig back
With Glocks in it g roc black tinted
What side you claim fuck yo gang
Yeah Yeah thats what I’m talking bout nigga
I got more bars than singular
Keep a four five yeah seen me a
Shoot to kill we on the brooklyn bridge
Range Rovers and Coupe Devilles
Middle fingers up to the NYPD
Locked down in them cells thats where they want us Gs
Feds watching got us on camera got a good lawyer he cold like Canada
Nigga I’m a animal, raps new hannibal, king of my jungle, eat you like antelope
Product of the projects nigga I’m the shizznit
You don’t wanna test, give you lames the business
Watts California pay hell a visit, where a wrong turn can be your last visit
Pit Bulls on
Five in the morning I’m up cooking it up
Studio filled with coffee cups
I don’t sleep I just lay down and wink
I work like slavery was just last week
Somebody told me that every label
Got this button that beep and when I rap it go off
And thats when they know to push their album back
I don’t allow cats around the big dogs
You can’t see me, the force between us is thick fog
I never hang up when the money calls unless it be a emergency that my family involved
Don’t get your life involved, we’ll shoot without playing basketball, get your ass mopped
Like Lysol, you light MC, I’m heavy on the track
If you see my flow you would say its obese
Kdot/Lyrical Disease/Jay Rock
Americas Most Wanted
Please |
Uh, rest in peace, Prodigy
Harry Mack, visual raps, you gotta see
Uh, on New@2 and no one heard of me
Murder MCs, somebody throw a word at me

Stack em up real quick, take it to the bank
Harry Mack, every lyric is dank, rappers get spanked

You know that I spit flows wiser
H-Mack, Im on it, you know Im bout to hold it
High off off of Jade cause we rolled it, I told it
One time, Harry Mack, the mic Im bout to slay it
He answered two out of three, so he aint have to pay it
Ay, one time, Harry Mack, Im in the state of Zen
Rip again and again
Its off top, I need no pen
Yo, Im in, my zone when Im on it
I hit em like a missile
I wish I had the bracelet with the crystals
But Mack aint got money, right now I aint paid
Every rapper gettin slayed

One time, ayo, I cut him like surgery
Somebody throw another word at me

We dont want no six, Im up in the mix, with all of the tricks
Harry Mack, I holla get it done
And when Im on the mic I just be shinin like the sun
Hey, check it, Im getting lifted off the marijuana

Yo, when Im on it, Ima hold it
Its Mack, yo, Im gettin it
Offa the top, Im cold flippin it
Yeah, ay, one time, you know I get it done
I remember watchin video for Heart Part I
My homie Brady B put me up on the game
When I watched the flow, I realized the shit was insane
After that, I saw Monster and I just knew

Yo, good kid, m.A.A.d city I was bumpin the jam
Harry Mack, I cant believe Im sittin next to the man
Yeah, check it, when we do it, yo, the people have to give it up
Yo, we bout to take a couple shots up out the Dixie cup
Yeah, one time, I rest em with flames
Im sayin RIP Prodigy one of the best in the game
Its Harry Mack, yo |
This is for my mothafucking Compton babies
And all the wild blocks that drove us crazy
Dominguez Hospital born
Niggas dying fast no life insurance
Black ski mask green leaf body bag liquor poured
So much 40 oz poured its like the curbs made of gold on the ave
Bullets got no names on it so if a girl get hit the response of it was like our bad
Thats the mind of state, rap niggas meet your fate
Say hello to the hip hops Norman Bates
I aint even burn em yet
Dave Chapelle these niggas are half baked
Well done when the second first come
I have an acquired taste
I will not let not one MC go to waste
I will eat all day
I will not, cannot lose, comfortable at the top
Im sittin down my legs are crossed like i had shoes
I tell dude, i aint worried about these rap dudes
Theyre not in my league, the West coast is me
Im, sub-zero, I put your career on freeze
I put it on Hov like I had ?
Im nightmare on Elm Street, come right through your dreams and
Delete you like an unwanted movie scene
Say hello to the team, aint ya?
Youre scared aint ya?
The world is anxious for my LP
Get pop grades, i get an A-plus, you get a D
Fucking failure! |
So everybody put your shades on
Poobie came to show +Love+ like +Faizon+
Every bar that I carve is amaz-on
Wack niggas cant seem to feel our play on
A lil spice in my swag, call it Cajun
Often wonder to myself where the days gone
Save some, save none at the same time
Talk shit, take a stand in the same rhyme
Paid homage to the struggle thats before mine
Never bad-handing nothing, therefore I grind
Outshine most niggas, call em all suns/sons
Steady reaching for the stars, but its only one
Rapper, your favourite rapper, this is no +Pun+
+Big Daddy+, no +Kane+, get the job done
Im bout to stick the whole game up with no gun
And Imma show you how the South was won
So check it out
This is the part where we run Hip Hop
And we dont need props, we know we the shit
This is the part where we run Hip Hop
So get them hands high
Im yelling all my real niggas, keep moving
My real bitches, keep moving
I promise Ima keep moving
If they dont, we do it
The best
I swear to give you nothing less, nothing less
Uh, yeah, hot damn, here we go again
Lyrical manslaughter off you and your mans
Im on the stage, you in the stands
Im on the road, you at the crib just scribbling
Your best sentence was doing your bid
Im through with you kids, like Brenda
I dont want to have to trash bin ya
When Ab enter, cats get they raps injured
Without no reason they be out the whole season
It sorta becomes a cycle like hoes bleeding
Im at where you cant come like no semen
No homo, just admire the power
Im so visual, give you an +Eiffel+ like +tower+
Huh, but you can never see me
Black tear compliment my black lips in the Lamborghini
Puffing a spliff big as a branch
After I spit it niggas be swimming to get to land, damn
This is the part where we run Hip Hop
And we dont need props, we know we the shit
This is the part where we run Hip Hop
So get them hands high
Im yelling all my real niggas, keep moving
My real bitches, keep moving
I promise Ima keep moving
If they dont, we do it
The best
I swear to give you nothing less, nothing less
Jay Rock got flows
Im killing em slow like cigarette smoke
Running Hip Hop like Pac in his prime
I spit murder, every bar is a crime
Look, I do it BIG like B.I
Nigga Im the shit, Ive doing this since knee high
No Im not TIP but I stay on my T.I
These fake ass rappers steady acting like devise
Ima live and die in Cali
Whats beef? Chew through that like rallies
Got hoes, work em out like ballies
Do shows, flip dough like patties
I aint just rapping, I can make it happen
Put your whole goddamn career in a casket
Lyrical homicide when I write
No bullshit, Im Mike with the mic
This is the part where we run Hip Hop
And we dont need props, we know we the shit
This is the part where we run Hip Hop
So get them hands high
Im yelling all my real niggas, keep moving
My real bitches, keep moving
I promise Ima keep moving
If they dont, we do it
The best
I swear to give you nothing less, nothing less
Never pledge allegiance, God given flow
I can out-preach a deacon once the words get to speaking
Give me a reason why Im not the best breathing
They worship the ground I walk on, though Im harder than cement
Sticking to the streets like convertible oil leaks
Portable handgun, who want to test?
I can pass out many Scantrons, fail many students
Tryna play the truest, dumber than Three Stooges
Hummers, we steady cruising like time do
Higher than a Vanilla Sky, float by you
When Im through, Ill probably let you take it back
Like my old prom suit that I wore with the tag
Rap giant, get your little locality smashed
Money in a bag, stones be yellow as a cat
I like bitches with fat booties but never half-ass
When Im working for certain, Im hurting the game
I said Im hurting her
Pooh! I couldnt help it nigga
I had to put a verse this muhfucker
This shit classic nigga
Feel this, uh, for Hip Hop, for Hip Hop
For real Hip Hop, Hip Hop, Hip Hop |
What is life for a nigga like me?
Living out his backpack every night
Needed a new place to sleep
But this is now, nigga
Ones for the money, two for the bitches
Three to get ready cause I feel I finally did it
Fours for the jealous rapper mad because he finished
Turn that mothafucka to a critic
Man, I got so much shit up on my plate, dog
I was hanging on them corners late
Pockets wasnt straight, bitch
I aint gon make it at this rate, dog, know what Im saying?
Nigga praying up to God just hoping that he hear a nigga
I know the world got more problems and its much bigger
But I figured, Id get some shit up off my chest
To all my niggas I would die for, load my pistol up, go out and war for
To all my niggas thatll never make it out the streets
Fuck it, keep goin hard, dont let em see you weak
To all my niggas first time stepping in the pen
Read a book and exercise, keep your spirit in
To all my niggas thats gon fuck around and die today
Take our hats off, bow our heads and let us pray, just wanna say
Stay blessed my nigga, blessed my nigga
Really think about it, could be worse my nigga
Dont stress my nigga, yes, my nigga
We all blessed my nigga
Stay blessed my nigga, blessed my nigga
Really think about it, could be worse my nigga
Dont stress my nigga, yes, my nigga
We all blessed my nigga, ah
Now how the fuck Im posed to say this?
You see my nigga just lost his son
While Im here hugging on my daughter, I grip her harder
Kiss her on the head as I cry for a bit
Thinking of some bullshit to tell him
Like Itll be okay, youll be straight, itll be aight
Well, fuck that shit
Whatever you need, yo, I got it!
Whether its money or some weed or putting in work
Fuck it, then Im riding
You know whats up, but now a nigga couldnt stick around
Told myself that after yall moved
That Id be a fuckin fool, to be living by the street rules
Fuck police tattoos, that happens when you ditch school
But anyway, keep the faith
Stay strong, bruh, remain solid, bruh
Keep playing ball, cuz
Its the only way up out it, bruh, a nigga proud of ya
Tell Floyd to enjoy his newborn seed
Ill have whatever he needs, we the last of a dying breed
Live life, smoke trees
See how far weve come but most, Im sorry for your son
Stay blessed my nigga, blessed my nigga
Really think about it, could be worse my nigga
Dont stress my nigga, yes, my nigga
We all blessed my nigga
Stay blessed my nigga, blessed my nigga
Really think about it, could be worse my nigga
Dont stress my nigga, yes, my nigga
We all blessed my nigga, ah
And you aint gotta shed no tear
Ill be everywhere but Ima always be right here
I aint forgot those years
Ill be everywhere but Ima always be right here
Living in a premature place, wait
Never grow to see the pearly gates, break
Every time a bullet detonate, dates
Of obituary carry crates
Of a scary picture with a family member that relate to ya
In December you was finna pin another case
On your record in a stolen Expedition, play it safe
As the record spinning, you was hearing angels entertain
Every pun intended, that was wicked, coming from your brain
Recognize you listened and you didnt hit the block again
Thats because the minute after you had knew you would be slain
Open up another chapter in the book and read gain
Story of a gun-clapper really tryna make a change
Everybody aint blessed, my nigga
Yes, my nigga, youre blessed, take advantage, do your best, my nigga
Dont stress, you was granted everything inside this planet
Anything you imagine, you possess, my nigga
You reject these niggas that neglect your respect
For the progress of a baby step, my nigga
Step-step my nigga, one, two, skip-skip
Back-back, look both ways, pull it off the hip
Blast at anybody say that you cant flip
This crack into rap music every other zip is a track
Get used to it, get it off quick
Come back, give back to the city youve built
Thats that, dont trip, see money, fuck niggas, dog
It aint nothing but a bunch of fuck niggas, dog
In a minute everybody gon be winning
Put a little faith in it then recognize that we all
Blessed my nigga, blessed my nigga
Really think about it, could be worse my nigga
Dont stress my nigga, yes, my nigga
We all blessed my nigga, ah |
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
Yeah, I know, its been a minute
Got to know
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
Whenever you need me
Just look over your shoulders!
Whenever you need me
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
When you need me
I wrote my first bars in the car with Stacy
How bizarre, my battle scars at large would lace me
Big marbles, nigga
I lead this new generation, boy, dont argue with us
Marvelous beat selectors, authors and novel spitters
And its all for the literature
And its all for the hideous, the nastiest flows, the chlamydia, uh
I aint afraid to say I need you, ah yeah
I promise Id never leave you, ah yeah
My life is like twelve open mics of hopeless notes I write
For sure my folks unite soon as the flow get nice, the poltergeist
That scare emcees, my prototype for every, my share of deeds
And R.I.Ps, you know my type of style is like my everything
Apparently my appetite they famished, bite no hand that feed
The culture vulture die and bleed
My focus hold these thoughts and dreams
Control this pen
Boldest lines of rhymes and things
Devote my time and mind it seems
Supposed to shine, remind Im king
Provoke the blind and bomb the fiends
The pros, the cons of diamond rings
Im full of time but Ima bring
The soul divine and cross between
Whats yours and mines, the goal the green
The roads that show just what it mean
Then grab Shakur right by the wing
And fly before my vocals
For hip-hop, look at my Ziploc
Bag full of goodies, you Chris Rock, hit the Pookie and piss stops
Since tube socks, baby, you a hell of a drug
Just look over your shoulders when they fuck you over, its love
I know ya
Dont you know, baby?
Dont you know, baby?
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
Whenever you need me
Just look over your shoulders!
Whenever you need me
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
Yeah yeah, you need me
Shhh, look over your shoulder, get me?
Cause I done bodied the game to the point niggas scared to rap with me
Kept burnin til they anointed me one of the kings of black history
And yes, I see the game is a little different, niggas lack simply
Them bars and I spit em like darts til they puncture your kidney
You trash and it dont matter how much you gon try to convince me
And you gon make my gun cock and talk a whole nother way, yo
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
I am the Buddha, the Ali Baba, the believer-er maker
So pristine, the dice roll from under my sleeve when I shake em
So rude, Im so ice cold but Im what you need to just wake em
All them crowns and medals on the wall waitin for me to just take em
When I arrive, my theme music got a pound to it
And when I leave, even my shadow got a sound to it
Cause Im the god of the harder, the martyr, the father
I spit a saliva thats leaking a lava
Completin the saga while meetin and greetin
And beating you niggas completely and conquer
Extremely bark on a nigga, you see me
And deeply carve up a nigga, believe me
Graffiti your armor, you heebie, you jeebie
Bikini your braud up
See me now give me the startup and treat me, you greet me
And meet me with arms up
So sweet when I speak, have a seat, it was deep
I was sleep, now the gods up, hmm
Upholding the fundamentals, while most of you boast a rental
Focus on whats most essential, spit bars to provoke your mental
Do I have your attendamiento?
While I clap these raps like thunders
Look over your shoulder boy and wonder
Dont you know, baby?
Dont you know, baby?
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
Whenever you need me
Just look over your shoulders!
Whenever you need me
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
Yeah yeah, you need me
With God watchin over us and me over your shoulders
But what you gonna do, you pull the devil even closer
Them clowns that you hang with more ridiculous than white Cleopatra
Or caucasians telling blacks to go back to Africa
But I digress, youre more, but you act less
Why do you act less even still, when the weight of life feels like a boulder
Im here whenever you need me
When you need me
Whenever you need me, when you need me
Dont you know, baby?
Dont you know, baby?
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
Whenever you need me
Just look over your shoulders!
Whenever you need me
Just look over shoulders, honey!
Yeah yeah, you need me
Dont you know baby?
Dont you know baby?
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
Whenever you need me
Just look over your shoulders!
Whenever you need me
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
Dont you know, baby?
Dont you know, baby?
Just look over your shoulders, honey!
Whenever you need me |
Im always ready for a war again
Go down that road again, its all the same
And Im always ready to take a life again
You know Ill ride again, its all the same
Tell me whos gonna save me from myself
When this life is all I know
Tell me whos gonna save me from this hell
Without you, Im all alone
Whos gonna pray for me? And take my pain for me?
And save my soul for me? Cause Im alone, you see
If Im gonna die for you, if Im gonna kill for you
Then Ill spill this blood for you, hey
I fight the world, I fight you, I fight myself
I fight God, just tell me how many burdens left
I fight pain and hurricanes, today I wept
Im tryna fight back tears, flood on my doorsteps
Life a living hell, puddles of blood in the streets
Shooters on top of the building, government aid aint relief
Earthquake, the body drop, the ground breaks
The poor run with smoke lungs and Scarface
Who need a hero?
You need a hero, look in the mirror, there go your hero
Who on the front lines at ground zero?
My heart dont skip a beat even when hard times bumps the needle
Mass destruction and mass corruption, the souls are suffering men
Clutching on deaf ears again, rapture is coming
Its all prophecy, and if I gotta be sacrificed for the greater good
Then thats what it gotta be
Whos gonna pray for me? And take my pain for me?
And save my soul for me? Cause Im alone, you see
If Im gonna die for you, if Im gonna kill for you
Then Ill spill this blood for you, hey
Whos gonna pray for me? And take my pain for me?
And save my soul for me? Cause Im alone, you see
If Im gonna die for you, if Im gonna kill for you
Then Ill spill this blood for you, hey
Just in case my faith goes, Ill live by my own
Ill live by my own, Ill live by my own |
Kendrick:
Got me breathing with dragons
I crack the egg on you bastard
Why you step to the master
Like you sick with this
I really do this shit
You not equivalent to the Kdot the almighty
Watch this, I will body
Anybody in the crowd
You want me john gotti, couldnt see me
You peeping this is freestyle off top of the dome
Ill let you know why every other rapper need to go home
This a new verse, I put rappers in new hearse
I take rappers to new church
Who wanna see me, you first
Then him second, then you third
Nouns, my verbs
Battle these words
Nigga that shit is absurd
Troi Breeze:
OK if Im 2nd or Im 3rd
Whatever he just said you heard
But Im coming through and I think that I got a new verse
Goin off the top of the dome
Im really tryna change the way that Ive been livin at home
Im really doin it
Nigga I be doin this
Nigga I come through with this
Nigga I will do it and I swear I am so studious
Nigga Im a student and I peeped the way you did it
Now Im bout to do it off of the top of the fuckin tip
Kendrick:
If you bout to do off of the top, then fucking did it
If you say that you the best, then nigga wont you admit it
I see you got the waves in your hair i been there
Back in 8th grade, when the pussy i was scared
But now im seeing all kinds of woman in peripheral
This is individual, this here is a ritual
This here is spiritual
This is not rap , this is god body
Nigga this aint nothing close to lyrical
Troi Breeze:
Shit all Im sayin now is I agree with you
I been grownin in it like I was a tree with you
Now Im tryna do it like I was a seed and I grew up
And now Im blessed like I just sneezed; hachew
I really appreciate it
I really appreciate you callin me up cause Im out here and Im ballin it up
Taking the biggest shots, and now I been getting it tryna spend the biggest knots
Cause Im really out here tryna grind for my family
Tryna go off of that energy, I know you feel my inner G
My brotha was from Piru
My pops was from whats he was raised out on Grape Street
Kendrick:
Well if ya brother was from Piru and your partna was from Watts
Then you should already know about them Compton blocks
All my niggas thats with me is from the city
All my niggas hold choppas and they be with me
And this is TDE this is stri-stri- strictly for my niggas and bitches tell me you with me
You see that scream right there, thats that scream that every other rapper scared
Thats that scream that every other clapper scared
They dont want shoot back
If they did they would get bitch slapped like my nigga Snoop Dogg back in 94
This is Kurupt flow
This is the LBC shit
This the Compton DPGTDE shit
FUCK WITH ME SHIT
Make some noise for my nigga
Troi Breeze:
My name is Troi Breeze
Kendrick:
Make some noise for Troi Breeze |
Theres a new crew taking over hip-hop, and everybodys trying to be down.I try to stay in my own little bubble and not think about how people view me, cause if you do that, its very quick that you can go crazy.Kendrick Lamar: That’s crazy.
XXL: What?
KL: TMZ.
XXL: How did you break into that world? You’re like a little backpack rapper, and then all of a sudden TMZ cares about what you’re doing.
KL: That world is The Matrix. I don’t understand that world—that’s The Matrix.
XXL: Is it really like they say, that it happens fast? Even though you’re moving real slow and then—
KL: Yeah, that’s very true. That’s very true. It definitely happens fast, but not fast in the sense, saying you didn’t put in the work—I’ve been doing this for ten years—but when that light beams on you, it happens fast from an aspect where you’re doing so much every day you’re not really aware of the attention that you’re getting, ’cause you’re doing interviews, you do a show, then you do a studio, it’s just a constant, daily plan, so you can’t look at yourself. You can’t be in the crowd looking at yourself on stage, you know. I can only look in the mirror and know I’m Kendrick, and see that same little boy I seen seven years , but I can’t see what everyone else sees. So more and more, I’m really unfazed by it as more and more success is hitting me and I’m not really sure . It’s a tricky thing, for sure.
XXL: What’s your day-to-day been like for the past few months? Has it been mostly touring and interviews? Have you back in the studio? Do you write often? Where are you at, as an artist?
KL: I’ve been on the road for the most part. But at the same time I gotta stay creative, I gotta stay writing—I’m usually writing every day. I can’t miss a day without writing, whether it’s a line, a verse, or an idea. I always have to have that creative flow going.
XXL: When you say you write, what’s your writing process like? Are you writing or are you just thinking shit in your mind?
KL: The process for my first album, my debut album, and even music prior to that, it’s always been like 50/50. I have some songs where I just went in the booth and just got the thoughts off and I didn’t want to feel like I was confined with a sheet of paper. Some records, I may sit with it and have scraps of napkins everywhere, and papers everywhere scattered, then piecing up them ideas together and putting them to songs. It really depends on what I’m feeling at the time. |
Everybody wanna play that tough guy
Til them things come out and them shots fly
Say your last words homie and its bye bye
You shouldnt have been playin with me
Everybody wanna play that tough guy
Til them things come out and them shots fly
Say your last words homie and its bye bye
You shouldnt have been playin with me
I aint no killer but dont push me
Them very words said can resurrect Pac straight from the dead
And it takes a young nigga like me to push the limit
No gimmick, this is real homie
I wake out of my sleep, sweat drippin off my face and cheek
I swear to God, death callin for me
Thats why I carry a heat, roamin these streets til they come and get me
Cause ninety percent of them are comin with me
C4 your car doors and watch your shit blow in a jiffy
Quick, boom, explode when I empty
Im on the edge so please dont tempt me to jump
I walk around with a pump, just to scatter you punks heads
Then go and get some head by that woman you want
She does what I says, I says what I does
Crazy back then, yeah thats what I was
But now Im psycho, mental nigga, holdin a grudge
I put a hole in your mug, and let the blood leak out
Until it fill up a tub, then put your son in it
This is no image, this is ether
Cocaine, reefer, alcohol mixed with it
They tried to label your boy as a menace
Put me in some records, along with Guinness
I just started, I aint finished
Chest to your head, until all you motherfuckers diminish
I hope yall ready to ride
Cause its do or die
If not, stay inside
I hope you ready
If not, be quiet
Cause when shots fly
Somebody will cry
I hope you ready
I hope yall ready to ride
Cause its do or die
If not, stay inside
I hope you ready
If not, be quiet
Cause when shots fly
Somebody will cry
I hope you ready |
K. Dot
Dave
Watch how K. Dot move, something not like you
Have your gun by you, cause niggas will try you
Watch how K. Dot move, something not like you
Have your gun by you, cause niggas will try you
Uh
Whos sick as me?
Tell the truth, bitch, nobody, and thats real
And as far as my eyes can see
Im the only one fucking with me
Myself, so put your album right back on the shelf
And let real business get dealt
You ladies man like Leon Phelps
I pee on any man tryna discontinue my health
I dont give a damn on how you feel or how you felt
Your small mercy wont help
When shots circle around your waist like designer belts
I design your face, the tray hitch lift ya up
Rock niggas like Bobby Boucher, you waterboy
What you want, weed, dope, or water, boy?
Its right here, and yall catch up, I move fast like light years
Now its back to the basics
K. Dots nothing to play with
A nigga tried to test my gangsta
I pulled out a weapon and aced it
My grade point average at the top of the brackets
Im sick like a cancer patient
Assist many players like personal agent
Yall as foul, clothes to fragrance
Im the best now
Plus the kid married to rap, old cats need to renew ya vows
Sit down, practice your verbs and nouns
Cause Im on the verge to progressin my words
Im the best you heard today, hands down
So hand down whatever you had
Like you been in a bag
Put it in garbage or trash, Im the best you had
Ever since, oh yeah, intelligence
K. Dot, so heaven sent |
It aint hard to tell that I live in hell
Sin City watch city gotta get your mail
How I sleep when I die thats real
Theres only two ways out: living under the dirt or life in the cell
Im still on the block tryna make me a sell
You cant make too much, some niggas might tell
Thats how it is homie, when you up in your shit
Get locked up, your friends might hook on your bitch
Its fuck a ho, thats why Im all about my chips
To live and die broke, its some embarrassing shit
Thats why Im hooking a block, fuck hooking a bitch
When the wars on, Im bustin em clips
Shit Im just trying to stack paper
Blowing big weed, Im high like a skyscraper
L.A nigga in a New York state of mind
When I rhyme verses like Cool J back in 85, Im hot lava
Gold ds on my low rider 45 so original like a ol timer
2 pistols, one llama
In the back of the trunk like who want drama? nobody
Sitting back I got this, a project prophet
I could predict when my goons ready to pop shit
When the funds is low
Were on the hunt for tons of blow
Summer time, in Cali homie all we do is snow
Counting dollars, til our hands get callused
Wont stop hustling til the judge bang the gaval
Prayin for the better days
Sit in the club celebrate
Pop bottles, with top models back on the interstate
Traffic and chickens homie we trying to get it
Then we back in the kitchen whipping like a chemist
Hunger pangs got me acting a fool in that dinner time
Life is like a racing track trying to get to the finish line
Slaughter pigs like farmer John
My style got its own ambience
You feel my presence? live life like everyday class in session
Learn something after 187 we burn some
For real kid, our uncle doing a 13 year bid
I pray to god he dont come out how he went in
Gets ill, these streets got me packing a 9 mill
My mind stay black, either kill or be killed
Its real in the battlefield son
Last week shawty do wop he at the ooh wop he said he ready to kill some
I said shawty chill, you aint ready for that type of drama
Plus karma for real
He shook his head, horizontal
He said he was out on consignment some dudes on the block tried to rob em
Try? what you mean?
He said they tried until I reached in to the pocket of my jeans
I killed 2, but one got away which is bad news, because the hood didnt even cover my whole face
And I know he be back, but before he do that
I bring it to him first on the porch where he live at
Damn shawty I cant knock you, its survival of the fittest
With that said, do what you got to
I shook his hand, then I walked away, then reality took a toll on me
Shoulda never gave him that .38
Looking at the ceiling in my bedroom
Then the phone rang, hey K Dot turn on the news
They didnt even say his name
But I knew it was him when it said another 7th grader was slayed
It aint hard to tell |
When I first wanted to rap
I cant front man I fronted the facts
Fabricated every single statement that I ever made
At a young age said Im running wit gats
No body shots man Im coming for hats Im at cha melon
Cool guy in real life but Im a felon
On tracks
Then I set my pants on fire
Liar liar singing to the choir let me fall back
Then I fell on my knees and said oh Lord please a young fella need help
Told me He was all I need to love everybody else including myself
I love myself
And its okay you feel a type of way
Aint nothin corny bout dat
I love myself
Im a Christian rapper I aint no actor man Im really bout dat
My lifestyle realer than its ever been
Even though you might be thinking its irrelevant
Its realer
Fo realer
On my mama I aint never been a killa
In 06 I wanted them to trust us
So I said I was the hope pheind hustler
And then I dropped A note for the hopeless
That was 09 when I got focused
Just being honest if they looking they can find us cause we out here hiding in the open
Been grindin but it aint mere talent
Its an honor I could ever be a spokesman coaching
Players in the game of life
Might look like a dealer but we aint alike
And I aint better
I aint said I was a angel at all
But I aint finna stand here like
I dont love myself
Im just trying to figure things out
Has there ever been anybody to ever take the same route
Qualified by the streets I was raised
8yrs young when I caught my first fade
5yrs young when I think I got saved
Got my testimony on the block in PA
Plenty things God used to bring about change
I could load em up and let em go like a gun range
I remember they was blowing kush in my face
Told me I was broke go ahead and smoke
Might as well wallow in ya sorrow
Unless you hit the lotto go and hit the bottle
Nope
Couldnt make me sell crack either
And I was trying to get chicken like the next man
Heard a false preacher say I need a bankroll so I was praying for the green like a jets fan
When I think back
Bout where where I aint yet
I couldve went and got it all like a blank check
Could be mad that I aint got a hundred Js
All up on the stage wit a hundred chains
But I am a good father to my kids
Made a honest woman out of their mother
And I love her like cake on the plate of a fat kid
Im real I aint gone walk up on you like a undercover
Came as I was to the throne of Heaven and made a shameless plug
In the name of Christ Lord take my life
I know ya pain is love
Martin Luther King went to jail over 14 times and he aint a thug
So where you think Im going huh?where the prophecy going or to hang at the club
Ive lost my head
I must misread what the good book said
It woes me be, its a jungle inside
I give myself again until the well runs dry, I
I love myself
On my mama I aint never been a killa |
Blewell jeans, Moby Dick stitching
Trigger finger itching
To trouble one of you niggas
Im daring one of you niggas to jump
Ima snatch you out pistol whip you
Then put you back in the trunk
Shit, Im back in the front
The front page of the newspaper
They say Im seeing more paper... true
But only if you knew that
I was in your house right now taking the paper from you
Where ya safe at?
Chick is swinging on the dick like a fucking bat
And catch it all like an umpire
Ima go hard, rims bigger than the fucking car
Baby girl say why the fuck you even got tires?
I dont know, just get inside
And never question my shit again ho
I fold dough like a notebook
I see money, you pass it up like Magic Johnson no look
Who the fuck taught you niggas how to cook
Thats what Im hearing up in your song
Beat said if youre cooking up the product and your wrist dont hurt when you do it then youre doing it wrong |
Yeah, I like it
Love, lets talk about love
Is it anything and everything you hoped for?
Or do the feeling haunt you?
I know the feeling haunt you
This may be the night that my dreams might let me know
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
This may be the night that my dreams might let me know
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
Tell me what you gon do to me
Confrontation aint nothin new to me
You can bring a bullet, bring a sword, bring a morgue
But you cant bring the truth to me
Fuck you and all your expectations
I dont even want your congratulations
I recognize your false confidence
And calculated promises all in your conversation
I hate people that feel entitled
Look at me crazy cause I aint invite you
Oh, you important?
You the moral to the story? You endorsin?
Mothafucka, I dont even like you
Corrupt a mans heart with a gift
Thats how you find out who you dealin with
A small percentage who Im buildin with
I want the credit if Im losin or Im winnin
On my momma, thats the realest shit
Love, lets talk about love
Is it anything and everything you hoped for?
Or do the feeling haunt you?
I know the feeling haunt you
This may be the night that my dreams might let me know
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
This may be the night that my dreams might let me know
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
Love, lets talk about love
Is it anything and everything you hoped for?
Or do the feeling haunt you?
I know the feeling haunt you
This may be the night that my dreams might let me know
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
This may be the night that my dreams might let me know
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer
All the stars are closer |
Seasons change
Theres still time for us to run away
Seasons change
Theres still time for us to run away
Seaso—
Closed eyes, thats how you runnin from your destiny
Superpowers cant relieve that
Dear God, why cant you keep me from these outsiders?
Were outside, outside, out
Still runnin, cant let this jungle get the best of me
Superpowers cant relieve that
Dear God, why cant you keep me from these outsiders?
Were outside, outside, out
Closed eyes, thats how you runnin from your destiny
Superpowers cant relieve that
Dear God, why cant you keep me from these outsiders?
Were outside, outside, out
Still runnin, cant let this jungle get the best of me
Superpowers cant relieve that
Dear God, why cant you keep me from these outsiders?
Were outside, outside, out |
Lyrics from Snippet
-buss an A
Hol up, I never had smudge on my name
Born the same year but we can’t save the same
My d- |
You know Im surgical with this bitch Jake
How you want it dawg?
Closed Casket?
Remember that fool in a wheelchair?
How you think he got there?
I got my air-conditioning on right now
Real cool about it
Oil talking please
Slick with it
Wanna know what death feel like
I suggest that you stay in the house at night
The scope that I got for the long rifle fit pretty damn right
Plus my connect got a pretty good price
I could take off your neck with just one slice of the blade
No, Im not Wesley Snipes
One cut can have her screaming out first aid
Been this way ever since first grade
Forte demeanour was to get paid
Birthday solution was to shoot straight
Thirteen I was ready for gunplay
Stand on the block taking pay
I get four shots like a freak oh he know
Not to fuck with K-D-O-T
Oh, I forgot
Never come around here without a Glock
You want beef with your boy
Nigga I put heat on your boy
Leave him tied up on the back seat
With your boy duct taped wont let out noise
Oh yes we got them toys
Oh yes we got them choppas
LAPD they cant stop us
Rockets shoot down helicopters
In the kitchen
Betty Crocker
Got kick
You hate
You wait
One sec
Ill be back we then gon west
No vest, Ima aim at your face
Unless you can stop them
Im so throwed
Oh yes people there is a problem
I say
(Know what Im talking bout?
I can feel that lane
Sometimes I just lay back and let them look at me
Im so too
You see they be loving the oil talk
Its real slick for them
I keep the air conditioning on
Cool, cool, cool)
Pop shots yeah we kill niggas
On the real nigga
Run when I flex the steel
Coming with a to grill niggas
Save on the ounce but dont know the price
But I know one time aint bust late night
Trying to set me up so I gotta think twice
Aint no fucking with it Ima let em plague mic
I keep a nine for you dummies then I split your brain
Im going to your safe, take your cash, cocaine
All your weed in your range cause youre going platinum chains
And when I leave I your white carpet got a stain
Watch as my city get gritty
Fuck pity, we gon do you niggas shitty
Domino effect when we spray them with the semi
Big k-holes in your dodge you can hear me
Front to back
Stack for stack
Nigga go clip for clip
Either gat for gat
Wise niggas better check my stacks
We let the match ratatat
And all the heads we crack
Stacked, lots of cheese
Tryna cop the gs
mac sale when we pop the fees
Cop the keys
To the boss got rocks to feed
Roster fees
Cause aint nobody stopping me
I got a flow so cold
Style so bold
A nigga run up, I leave his face all swole
Hit him with the 8 better yet with the 4
And I dont feel bad he put himself in the hole
West coast in motion
Promoting another episode
Down south them niggas get whilst we be getting |
I remember making bedroom hits, and now were counting this
Then I took the Selfie, this aint healthy, kids aint down with this
Wanna meet the plan I took for granted til the xanax hits
I cant even read it, cause Im the one to kill the analysts
A.M. to the P.M., P.M. to the A.M., funk
Dont let me down, were back in town for the greatest, funk
Were just playing around and I still miss my momma, funk
Chris Martin in my apartment, how the fuck we do this, funk
The Sick Boy just went viral
Platinum going on the top, Billy Idol
Alex P on TMZ, hello like Lionel
Theres levels to it, you and I know
Bitch, be humble
, sit down, be humble
Sit down, be humble, bitch, sit down
These songs arent for the critics, theyre for every kid at home
That wants to push the limits and
These songs are not for the critics, theyre for every kid at home
That wants to push the limits and
These songs are not for the critics, theyre for every kid at home
That wants to push the limits and not...
These songs are not for the critics, theyre for every kid at home
That wants to push the limits, sit down
Bitch, sit down
Sit down
Sit down
Bitch, sit down |
Kendrick Lamar:
What inspired me as a kid really was, uh, illustrating my thoughts on that sheet of paper
Lifes to me like a box of chocolates
something for something, thats the obvious
Flows so sick, dont you swallow it
Biting my style, you
Come from the same blocks where they pick cotton
Oh, you forgotten, ah, forget it
That life aint sane
You see gangbanging, drug paraphernalia. You see things from the streets. So what you gon do? You gon find something that you love to do and have a passion for it, or you gon stay, you know, mingling in the streets until something major happens
So the moment I defined myself and freed myself was the time I locked myself in the studio and said, You need to do music.
Tonights for everybody, understand me
The plan B is the one in your hearts
This here is family, Kendrick Lamar
Words like a sword in the hands of a Spartan
Marching on Rosecrans in Compton
You cant cause conflict or corrupt my spirit
Im on point like period
Ive been there and gone before you get near it
Ooh wee, that boy remind me of a young Martin Luther
The way he piece up troopers, then round up shooters
Like Malcolm X did, I stand for what I believe in
Thats family, God and honor
From Chicago, my daddy and my momma
Came into Compton to accomplish one thing: reign supreme
Raise a king named Kendrick
I aint lying, it stand for King and I am one
My unborn son and grandson will live royal
From the coochee to the soil
The meek shall inherit the Earth
Well, Ive had this world since birth
Feel the good kids hunger
The Crips made strong, the Pirus made stronger
But its muscle in my heart
I stare in the eyes of Mozart and tell him Im the genius
I love myself, really love myself
And I means this with all sole
And you cant control greatness less you hating
With the heart of Satan
But even that cant stop it
I tell em, Get out my wallet and passion in your logic
Passion in your life, the passion of my Christ is in me
And if you say it aint, you may offend me
Damn, that boy good
Im bright as Thomas Edison but Im Gucci Mane in the hood
I stood alone for so long, prolonged my whole career
But now Im here, you can shoot shots and cheer
Because I am, we are Kendrick Lamar
Getting into that success level where you can go back to your neighborhood and people feel like, you know, uh, they look up to you. Sometimes the most riskiest things you can do can end up being, you know, the most important. Yeah
Teriq Tyson:
My dreams more vivid than Dr. Ts, evolutionary
Reporting live, Centennial High, 2014
Kendrick Lamar:
I am Kendrick. I am Kendrick. I am Kendrick. I am Kendrick |
I can think of a million reasons, have it all as your seasons
Say no more I feel ya b, say no more I feel ya homie
We traveled the Neverlands, fireworks in the south of France
Take it down and come again, again
But look
You dont get too dirty in my whip. whip, whip, whip
Keep it nice and flirty in my whip, whip, whip whip
Pop your pretty ass up in my whip, we gonna make it last up in my whip
Scorpio, talk to me, talk to me
Capricorn, talk to me, talk to me |
I am a sinner whos probably gonna sin again
Lord forgive me, Lord forgive me
Things I dont understand
Sometimes I need to be alone
Its just been one of them weeks
Ruslan
Look, I should really be workin on my album right now
But I couldnt help myself
Please dont kill my vibe, please dont kill my vibe
Please dont kill my vibe, please dont kill my vibe
Look inside of my eyes and you will soon find a greener eclipse
Tryna get though, from the get-go
You the blacks dont miss
Hey, it could feel the strangest
It could feel like you and your best friend are now becoming strangers
I can tell you that I have failed you
But you tell me Im brainless
And I cannot change this
How can I say the scripture
When the ? for blind, it may not hit ya
Went on the road and I came back a star
Think that I made it and I am in charge
Seeing me different and thinkin I switched
Man, this whole process is feeling bizarre
Im just happy to be out of my script
Tell me why you think Im different again
Taken for granted and then well be missed
Taken for granted, later will be missed
I can feel the changes
I can feel the same people round me, now they thinkin Im famous
My savior saved me, my city made me
And put me on stages
To me thats amazing
To you thats outrageous, hate this
But please shutup, let me say this
I am a sinner whos probably gonna sin again
Lord forgive me, Lord forgive me
Things I dont understand
Sometimes I need to be alone
Please dont kill my vibe, please dont kill my vibe
I can feel your energy from three planets away
I got my Word, I got my music
I would share it but today Im singin
Please dont kill my vibe, please dont kill my vibe
Please dont kill my vibe, please dont kill my vibe
Im tryna to stay on the path, and not look on back to what we once was
You tryna churn into somethin
Tip on that malt to get you that uuz
Feelin the rapture
We live in a world, we live in a world
That wants to laugh at ya
We live in a world
I could be honest, I know they dont hear us
They carousel ? life continues propellin us
Forward, they just wanna put us on the auction block but theres no way they sellin us
Worth more than minimum wage
Forever you could relate
Any subliminal
Back in my criminal days, I would stil live in a way
That was reciprocal, this was nothin I could change
So the Messiah was slain
Wow, what a miracle
Opened the door to be saved
Jesus opened the door for all of us to be saved
+
They ? like this
Been a long time, cant you see the Lord smiling
They waitin on ? heart, the tank is all empty
Xs in the air, and they do it by instinct
Hide your children, hide your children
We are not better than you
Please dont put any of these rappers on a pedastal
Please dont kill my vibe, please dont kill my vibe
We dont wanna hear anymore of your lies
My New Years resolution is the Kings Dream movement
Shut your whole thing down, dont you question what Im doing
Please dont kill my vibe, please dont kill my vibe
Please dont kill my vibe, please dont kill my vibe |
Mothafucka this is Watts, California, Nickerson Gardens
Follow me home back to my project apartment
Land of the palm trees, buying weed, we smoking
Home of the low-lows, 6-4s, we rollin
Chuck Taylors and Nikes, wife beaters and white tees
Up in the Bay area, boys gettin hyphy
Los Angeles where them boys rocking them colors hard
Running from one time, we aint living behind them bars
Take you on Crenshaw, then show you how to ride a car
Hit a couple of switches, you wont have to buy a bra
Take you on Slauson, Im flossin, lookin like a star
Witta bad bitch with ass and cash in her bra
Pocket full of cash, we smash, we all at the mall
Hit a swapmeet, snatch some khakis up off the wall
Turn your music up cus we dont give a fuck about the law
Only Lord knows, this is California soul
C-A-L-I-F-O-R-N-I-A
My name rang in MIA, Im the talk of New York
Down in ATL, they smell me, so aint shit niggas could tell me
Ask in Mo-town, theyll tell you how it go down
Aint no California love
We California thugs, we throw California slugs
So throw up a California dub
Mothafucka this is Watts, California, Nickerson Gardens
Follow me home back to my project apartment
Gotta get money homey, we hustle regardless
Changin my number nigga the streets steady callin, but
Moneys my target, nobodys flawless
Step in my building still got the work under my carpet
Still living heartless, rats, roaches crawlin
Killa Killa Cali, plenty souls deparment
South Central active, gang bang capitol
Bloods and Crips runnin the city dawg, its factual
What set you claim? Little homey they askin you
Wrong color, wrong sign, boy they blastin you
And when you passin though better have a pass with u
Because these boys in the hood theyll casket you
Nothin but the truth is what Im givin you
Lord knows, the life of a California soul
C-A-L-I-F-O-R-N-I-A
My name rang in MIA, Im the talk of New York
Down in ATL, they smell me, so aint shit niggas could tell me
Ask in Mo-town, theyll tell you how it go down
Aint no California love
We California thugs, we throw California slugs
So throw up a California dub
Mothafucka this is Watts, California, Nickerson Gardens
Follow me home back to my project apartment
Still in my hood on my beach cruiser, pedaling
Niggas think Im a rookie but got the heart of a veteran
Nigga Im a doctor, you hear I got that medicine
For them patients they say the go around me but thats irrelavent
Balls hangin low just like a elephant, still ridin high like a pelican
Nigga I aint studder man, I do it for the gutta men
I do it for my people on a hustle on a struggle, we go? dawg
I do it for the W, west coast my coast, Watts, California
My hood my burough, plus I gotta keep it thorough
Man I gotta keep it gangsta
Thats what I am no wanksta, never that
Momma never raised a chump, watch what you sayin huh
Only Lord knows, California soul |
Sound without Focus... is just noise
With so much knock in the LBC
It was hard not to claim that DPG
Summertime popped in the L-A-C
With the music courtesy of D-A-Z
And the Soopa, Doopa, Fly for the troopers
Riders, supers, hoes, groupies
All of em with the short tight jeans on
Lets Play House all of em theme song
Word on the gangsta, squad up
Black, brown, throw a St. Ides up
Then the West got harder
And Soopafly hit em on the head on Tha Doggfather
Dont nobody party like the West though
G-Funk been the sound since Death Row
Where you think we got the kicked-in clap at?
Time to bring it back, bitch, and its like that
Only in L.A, Only in L.A
Where the gangsters play, Where the gangsters play
Catching up on fame
Summertime in, West Coast ride
Come up out that shithole, gotta get this money
Long Beach, CR, all this shit is sunny
Put the monkey in it like the shit is funny
Banana clip Ras about to split this dummy
The funk just told me to kick back
I like revenge, retaliation and get back, nigga
Got more bars than Kit-Kat
Get smacked like Kat Stacks if you lift, Jack
A motherfucker better recognize
With a flick of my wrist like Kevorkian, you all die
All I do was ball high
Trying to stay above the rim like a tall guy
That niggas ass super fly
Yall ride Lexus, , left lane, tall ride
OG to BG, I tried to warn ya
Only in California
Only in L.A, Only in L.A
Where the gangsters play, Where the gangsters play
Catching up on fame
Summertime in, West Coast ride
Rolling down Rosecrans bumping D-A-Z
Feeling like 1-9-9-3 91 to the seventh jam
Im in Long Beach, home of dillagent, dilligent gangsta shit
Gangsters killing, you wanksters quit filling your iPods up with classics
Ain’t a nigga out can out-match them adlibs
DPGC general
Jay know my breath marching, hold all my genitals
Yeah, its like that cause I was taught that
Back when Dog Food dropped in the Compton swap meet parking lot
Daddy rehab three, so going to my pops we was popping now
The trunk in the caddy was rocking now
Slap a nigga in the face with a little waist, even make Pac salute
Snare like a bear trap, theyre imperible too
Bear witness
Kids like Barry Bonds, thats the realest, nigga
Only in L.A, Only in L.A
Where the gangsters play, Where the gangsters play
Catching up on fame
Summertime in, West Coast ride |
I been a real one, I been a real one
I been a real one, I been a real one
I been a- I been a love and a travesty
Never talk down on no prophecy, put it on God, aint no stopping me
Put it on God, God, God, God, God
I been a real one, I been a real one
I been a real one, I been a real one
I been a real one, I been a-
I been a love and a travesty, never talk down on no prophecy

Bad bitches love me, when they see me, yeah, they bow

West Coast Predator, every day is like chow
Wont B-5, put your whole career in the clouds
We came in this industry, we screamin fuck yall
Till I came on the industry, you see me grip my balls
Here I go again, lost one, never
More wins than Chicago weather
New year, new endeavor
Reach goals better than David Beckham, out of control
Kick it to my shoe, glued to your rectum, your asshole
Californ-I-A, tiI disintegrate interstate 105
We ride, you imitate
We eliminate anybody that penetrate any kind of negative vibe
Temperature rise
Southern Cali sun, shades over eyes
Never wear suits, but keep corporate ties
Like I do
Soul brother, number deuce, Lil Petrusse
I be over the edge like Q in Juice
Through and through, back to back hits like profile views
Or fiends strung out, keep watchin
I bring the heat to your closet, make your team run out
Honest, I gets down and I look at the chronic and say
Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up
Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up
Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up
Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up
Im in the 745 and I call it the Black Knight
My music get you high, remind me of crack pipes
Flip ya boy up, before they stitch ya boy up
And we stump ya homie out, they wont pick ya boy up
I aint playin with em, Ill choke you dummy
We in the streets, tryna get this Oprah money
So you better give me mine, cause Id love to take it from ya
You internet bangers, we bangin out around ya |
Hey, I hear skills still slept on, maybe I recollect wrong
Maybe me writing in retrospect that kept home at a standstill
Me and my Chevrolet roam
The song of salvation until my larynx gone
Never rigid in resurrection was never set in stone
Plagiarist proof endeavors embedded this alone
The subject at hand as if my predicates on song
Set precedent -- Im addressing the elements indulged
In finesse, your less eloquent rhetoric is strong
Where I reside at, I see irrelevance condoned by the delegates
Their regression is evident they own
What I been off, fuck it since its the samaritans I sold
Ima represent for self in detrimental tone
And Im taking the front runner of presidential poles
No arrogance, shit I just got my on
Vulgarity is - the only heir apparent to the throne
Cant run in the Serengeti in the
Young and Im ions beyond the box
Flow free on, but still will Ghost Recon a cop
So phenomenal by design, we still pushing the envelope
No keyage to vote, but uh, most agree I am hope for the coast
Low key Im consulting the triage of folks
On me Im the most slept on
Stepped on, step songs, father of rap songs
Writing my wrongs, writing the book of psalms
This is the word, word to the Holy Quran
Or whatever thats foreign to you
I find it funny that you embracing the storm
Wake up, ring the alarm
Or wake up with a bomb through ya
Its Baghdad, kids with bad dads
Cops with bad badges
Big bullets, no my bads when them guns shoot you
Mykestro, I might go out as the Mike Jordan
Lacing my Jordans and yelling out ISO
Ike Turner your idol, whip him and bruise him
Stick poison inside of his pipe-hole, sad that you knew him
We influence the heart of thousands
Thats nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand but whos counting
Thirsty for success and we drink from the youth fountain
Big-headed tryna stay grounded like a delinquent in middle school clowning
Drowning MCs, they want life jackets
While we swim backwards, we yellin nigga please!
Pay your respect and recognize the alphabet
You cant survive in a room full of Gs
Coached by my Uncle Lil Mane, I resemble him
They tryna steal the game, and we killing all thieves
Make them draw blood, let them all bleed
Motherfucker die, put a ribbon in the sky, tell Stevie Wonder sing
King of all kings, Joker and new jacks will get dealt with
Royal flush when I drop shit and say these things
Man I lean on them cause half these niggas Maybelline: all made up
Im about to go dummy on a dummy what-what
Treat some like welterweights stuff in some trunks
Fucking with a giant, Im Forest Whitaker sparring with some Forest Gumps
What you want!
What a dilemma tryna deal in charts
What incentive? See Ima definitive nigga for starts
No one similar, iller the way I deliver they harp
I be rhythm and riddlin, settin the symbols and sentiments
Diligence, then again I did administer art
In percentages, this is just another sinister star
So consider this exhibition as a privileged par
And watch the metal arc, lemon my part
Shits riveting what Ive written til a nigga depart
By the dividend, considering the withering of words
Nothing realer than the urge to revisit all the shit I been hearing
Emerge through provision and of nerve
We stern, this here is endearing and deserved
Nothing like yall as far as error is concerned
You dont know about us, then your earrings to the curb
Sermons be piercing to your courage
For real -- Against All Odds -- Im the fiercest with the term
The nonchalant nod when the iffiness occurs
Hella picky and its sweated out the prissiest of perms
I walk in the room, bitches Vickys get submerged
Shit that used to be clear, the vindictive be the blurred
And I aint satisfied til the dense of me can splurge
At the embassy my enemies can burn
I defer all amenities with hopes that my sins will be adjourned
Niggas diddle my abilities, the remedy concern
We at SkillStillAppeal, let the chemistry converge
And the trilogies, the humility is in the urn
You aint feeling me, the new humidity is here
Im so in between being Kenny G and Murs
If shit dont blend like Hennessy and
I encourage infamy, you get an empty me and turn
I return before tables get turned
It’s my turn, spur of the moment
I re-produce my sperm and try to clone it, stand firm
Bumping The Firm, Phone Tap, I’m on it
I slaughter every opponent to bits of components, potent
You can’t fuck with the horse power, your woofing too much
Y’all bout to hoarse coward, as soon as I buss, pause
You put your hands on a broad and telling me you can brawl
You thought you saw me when you saw Saw, frightening
More reckless than a paisa driving without a license
Hittin’ your new truck then leaving you hiking
They said no, the industry let it go
I cracked the window then hit the back door like trick dices
Stickin’ and movin and movin’ and stickin’ the prices
Uppin’ the ante before Im a antique, can promise you hear me clear
Even if you eat 3 ears with Tyson
Rippin’ the panties but bootin’ the wammys
They dyke and I’m liking them all, I’m siftin’ through panties
Haters’ll spike it
Voicing opinions but holding laryngitis
See I don’t hear ‘em, I’m a winner by law
Track em down like the subway when they sub-par
Sub-zero everytime I jump in the synagogues
Send the angels, send the God
I can make you look hard, I know
I just let the thoughts take its toll
More sentences than level four yard, Bogard
Go hard, black tar, concrete, Tom Vick times Papi Mason times 3
Uncle Toms need Tums to stomach atomic bombs
Or die from my Wizardry
RZA, GZA, Method Man
I’m a Killer Bee, killer! Be killed, make your embassy yield
This is not your cup of tea, and oh
They say waters run deep, dive in, Bermuda triangles
And you will see us, we must leave dust behind
Emcee’s duck, deduct, revenue declined
When we touch down like a Running Back’s grind
Can you keep up or keep away for keepsake
And fuck!
We must leave dust behind
Emcee’s duck, deduct, revenue declined
When we touch down like a Running Back’s grind
Can you keep up, you keep a safe for keepsake
That aint safe - Bluh! |
Im wakin up to ash and dust
I wipe my brow and I sweat my rust
Im breathin in the chemicals
Im breaking in, shaping out, checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse, whoa
Im wakin up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, whoa, Im radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa, Im radioactive, radioactive
I raise my flags, dye my clothes
Its a revolution, I suppose
Well paint it red for the blood that rose
Whoa
Im breakin in, shapin up
Checkin out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse
Whoa
Im wakin up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, whoa, Im radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa, Im radioactive, radioactive
All systems go, the sun it hasnt died
Deep in my bones, straight from inside
Bury me alive, bury me with pride
Bury me with berries, that forbidden fruit and cherry wine
Thank you berry much, but tonights my night and Im Barry Bonds
Swingin for the fences, barbaric Kendrick in idle time
Everything in lifes subject to change, change whip, change grind
Change clothes, change opinions, right before I change my mind
I dont really know yah business, been in there since I was bendin Lego blocks
Now you tell the world about me, dry snitch
Tater tots on my shotgun, now I gotta pop one at the stars
Skys the limit, I gotta finish as the first rapper on Mars
Mark my word, Ima make my mark, even when they start their Martial Law
Even when these Martians alienate, my mental state is still at heart
Lord, look in my eyes, tell me I died, tell me I tried, to compromise
Tell me you love me, tell me that I, dont really care and can barely decide
Wishin good luck on my enemies, all of my energy go to the almighty God
I could drown in a bottle of Hennessy, with no amenities, Im gettin better with time
Yeah!
Im wakin up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, whoa, Im radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa, Im radioactive, radioactive
Can you feel me with time, can you feel me
Can you feel me with time, can you
Hey
Can you feel me with time
Oh
Can you feel me with time, can you
Can you feel me with time, can you feel me
Can you feel me with time
Radioactive, radioactive |
Watch how I kill em with the funky rhythm
Rappers I babysit em like soap operas they are my children
You dealing with the most phenomenon
My style raw like Madonna on, PCP
B-I-G, Frank White used to rock hand me down air nikes
Now I style proper, i gotta
Be laced in linen thats Versace
Polo fleeces, my bitches in Vicky secrets
Dom Perignon to carry on the festivities
Cristal when the sun go down
Anybody wanna touch me, the gun go blaow
It gets ugly, like New York momma, who want drama?
Biggie drop bombs like Osama, my bank account
What can i say? comma comma, comma
Kami-kaze, snap shots at you like papparazzi
Definition, Junior Mafia, ?
Kick in the door, wavin the four-four
All you heard was Dot, dont hit me no more
Kick in the door, wavin the four-four
All you heard was Punch, dont hit me no more
Its Punch people, on a quest for the root of evil
Tread softly, death row is where the Ruger leave you
Im no shooter, but you know my people
Blood pressure get to boilin, you know black people
They got them 44s, Macs, them Eagles
Pack them in the back of a Reagle, and come clap your people
Ride the track like a Mack truck on diesel, mattafact
I dont rap, i just do it for my people
Its so easy, treat the flow like a freethrow
Tryna take me out my zone, watch me let three go
Im 36, old, speak with eses, kilos
Icicle flow, yeah, Im so below zero
Kick in the door if you try and play the hero
20 like the heat, you ? casino
Kick in the door, wavin the four-four
All you heard was Dot, dont hit me no more
Kick in the door, wavin the four-four
All you heard was Punch, dont hit me no more
I dont worry bout none of you rappers
Most of yall talking practice, actors like Denzel
Until you trapped in a lion den with stake
Under your chin, oh well, shouldnt play with Big Poppa
357 over my boxers
Magnum, tell the doctor I shot ya, ugh
Toe tag em, crack with purple tops, we bag em
House licks, we ski mask em, baby baby
Let me get it, let me sink my teeth in it
Put you niggas in a cobra clutch,with no submission
Its to the death, to the endin
Push you to your final destination, hurry up, your casket waiting, who told you put a thought together ?
You brainstormin, I control the weather, im thinking sunshine |
Bumpin N.W.A., smokin chronic, sippin on gin and juice
Back in 2001, I was smoking on the chronic, too
Now I need a Detox, yeah, yeah, yeah
We cant do the same things that we used to
Nah, nah, oh nah
I remember growin up, lil Dogg Pound pup
Bumpin G Thang, mixin gin and juice in my cup
And all I knew was N.W.A
Eazy, Yella and Ren, Ice Cube and Dre
Big Snoop, Warren G, Nate Dogg and Rage
Kurupt and Daz, RBX, the original gang
Tray Deee, D.O.C., I can go on for days
D.P.G.C., this the way I was raised, ayy
When mothafuckin 2Pac was the shit
Specially when he was rockin on the Docs shit
Killa Cali where it all started
A legacy, me, Im just happy to be a part of it
This West shit is history in the makin
This here is the next step, Californias best kept
Scoe the mac, Im a Y.A gangsta rider
I remember South Central L.A, we wanna
Bumpin N.W.A., smokin chronic, sippin on gin and juice
Back in 2001, I was smoking on the chronic, too
Now I need a Detox, yeah, yeah, yeah
We cant do the same things that we used to
Nah, nah, oh nah
I remember when it all started
On Alondra, in that small apartment
Burgundy carpet and SEGA cartridges
Poppa flickin blunt ashes all on his garments
Momma off a wine cooler, Magic Johnson played Jordan
I was only four but its like I heard it before
House party crackin off of the music Doctor record
And according to my awareness I was more than coherent
A cold listener, mockin that shit like a parrot
My cousins kickin up dust, Crippin, their flag, wear it
Round their hand like a mitten, aim and use it for leverage
Shittin on Compton sheriffs like Fuck the Police
Woofers and gold Rollies, every swap meet should know me
Cause I copped every record that dropped, dropped a dub
Just to hear Doc drop a jewel for the sake of hip-hop
Whoever thought the moment I seen you on bullets for Cali Love
15 years later youd be savin my life, what?
Bumpin N.W.A., smokin chronic, sippin on gin and juice
Back in 2001, I was smoking on the chronic, too
Now I need a Detox, yeah, yeah, yeah
We cant do the same things that we used to
Nah, nah, oh nah |
Yeah, thats cool
Thirty two shots in the clip of his thirty fours a little nigga with heart
Frustrated with being broke while I was climbing the charts
Penitentiary chancin and dancin with suicide
is connoisseurs, love to eat on our tribe
Homie I got love for him
Angel on angel dust, I used to thug for him
Took me on my first mission, transition
Good kid turned rapper, pay attention
This is deeper than you think
Right after my admission inside the game, asked him bout whats his name
We brushed it off as a joke as we watched her get off the stage
Music award for all of the nominee
I was promised to win, he was promised to leave
With all the favorite accessories
The ones the big budget videos had especially
Just a shadow in the dark, blendin in with all the industry friends
So guess this is where the story begins, J Incredible, what! |
Lyrics from Snippets
...always right
And love your mother, shes the reason why were both alive
Thats right, my little butterfly, butterfly, you got a long way to go
Darling, just take it slow
...wonder if theres only a frame
Its whats inside, that heart following love in those veins
I still see Johnny...
My little brotha, we evolve, we evolve like
Butterfly, butterfly, you got a long way to go
Darling, just take it slow |
On my momma, Im a get money all day
All night, somethin like 24/7, on my momma
Im a stay fresh all day, all night, somethin like 24/7
On my momma, Im a pull up
Hop out with two of them Top Models
Haters gon hate, but before the ice grill, say, Stop
Look at my motherfuckin wheels
Theyll say its bizack for the first time
Young boy rhyme like 87 Rakim, locked in my own world
No fire hydrant can water down me though
Im a tyrant on Swizz beats, its kind of ironic
Roll up the chronic tree, Hennessy, lets see, can you get like me?
White tee, L.A. fitted, roamin the backstreet
Back trunk, chopper clap back at me
Girls get skeet-skeet on like Little John
BME, I dont save em, even with coupons
Usually I kick game like modern-day Bruce Lee
Raw heat, never paranoid when ridin on deep-dish rims
Fly as Clark Kent, invade the black like a martian
Then say, Pardon me, no, pardon my arrogance
If you dont learnt else about I
Then, motherfucker, you better know this
On my momma, you want to look at my wheels, huh?
On my momma, you want to know how it feel, huh?
To get like me, makin them dollar bills, huh?
Pull up, hop out wit my appeal, huh?
On my momma, she lookin to pop a pill, huh?
On my momma, she lookin to get a thrill, huh?
She want to go home, get that punani killed, huh?
Face down, ass up, she know the drill, huh?
I got a couple of soldiers ready to ride, huh?
It pop off the club, we finna leave outside, huh?
We see you duckin and dodgin, flippin to hide, huh?
On my momma, you play round and lose your life, huh?
Im funky-fresh all night, huh?
Smokin that chronic, high as a kite, huh?
Drinkin that brown bottle on site, huh?
Been pimpin, baby, swear I dont lie, huh?
Look at my motherfuckin wheels
Look at my motherfuckin wheels
Look at my motherfuckin wheels
Look at my motherfuckin wheels
You aint got to front, homie
Look at my motherfuckin wheels
Or look at me, look at my motherfuckin wheels
I said, You aint got to front, homie
Look at my motherfuckin wheels
Or look at me, look at my motherfuckin wheels
I aint gon lie bout it |

As my mind drift
Then split, like the middle of a spliff
I began to catapult off the cliff
Of the unknown, I got a feeling in my funny bone
That were not the same, just antonyms of a different age
My soul flock, with the carefree
Words of the wise, I spoke a hundred times like a Goldie
L-M-F-A-O. I hate yall, but I spread love like mayo
Then spread slugs
My brain matter
Is a brain fatter
See my vision
Or my visionll stare at ya
This is the future if I say so
Yall copping fitted caps
Im about to go and cop a halo
The God of rap and I mean it
I play kickball with Mars
And marbles with Pluto and Venus
Witness the genius
I interact with the inner city villains
That are into your circle
Like a computer hack
Then give you that |
Peep the style and the way the cops sweat us
Artillery got a gun for every letter
In the alphabet while your family in pajamas
Ill be stepping in your house like Alpha Beta Gamma
I’m creeping
Got a dorm something decent
Fuck a fist fight the shells bubble
If its beef got the desert double
Still got the work in the duffle
Eat sleep, shit, breathe, Hustle
The game bang russell simmons
Gun tucked under the linen
V12 stock engine
Don’t worry he’ll be dead in a minute
59 seconds past then I let them shots blast
And I do it quicker than a horny 8 grey class
And sit them in the water like Alcatraz
Don’t bother with the god mc
Godfather, build big dro like Rasta, ya bumbaclot
You got chickens we raid ya spot
Kick in your door waving’ the 4 4
Let it blow like a Chicago snow storm
Even if its 20 below still bear arms
Jay rock, K Dot nigga piss yo pants
California let me see those hands
We don’t stop, Ingle wood we won’t stop
It’s compton in the house
K-Dot Jay rock nigga shit your drawers
2 deep g rob in your honda accord
Squeezed off on em paramedics tried CPR
And 3/4s of his heart the young boy coughed on em
Who Shot ya ?
5th sing like Sinatra
These hollow tips we call em heart stoppers partner
Red and black impala ride street like patrollie’s
Coached by OG’s to stay low-key
Sip 40’s and stay with a 4 T
My pockets bo key
Middle fingers up to the compton police
I’m a threat to the law and your flow got too much baking soda pa
It’s pissing your fiends off they be like “now raw?”
I’m outta here K-Dot got that powder for years
So focused we aim straight
4 shots will knock off 6 braids
Been doing this since sixth grade
You wack niggas need first aid
Got me twisted like dreads, I run money with two legs
Jay rock, K Dot nigga piss yo pants
California let me see those hands
South Central we don’t stop, East LA we won’t stop
Jay rock, K Dot nigga piss yo pants
California let me see those hands
South Central we don’t stop, East LA we won’t stop
Its 08 let me tell you what they tryna do clone humans
I’m so dope, they want me as two
What are you doing, respect you more if you called it a truce
But we burn white flags, so its probably no use
They tell me we hot, I’m looking like who?
Probably in heaven is the only time you couldn’t show me some proof
Until then keep stepping’ while I act a animal in the booth
You looking at the one man sitting zoo, Pity the fool thats denying the truth
I’m the word like bible study you heard class is over my toddlers
Top Dawg Enterprise
You went for ? get sprayed like insectiscide
Count hundred dollar bills for exercise
No money printer, just paper splinters
Yeah you hating ass niggas cry a river
Jay rock, K Dot nigga piss yo pants
California let me see those hands
Carson we don’t stop, Longreach we won’t stop
Jay rock, K Dot nigga piss yo pants
California let me see those hands
Watts we don’t stop, East Oakland we won’t stop, |
They see me going big, Im making it
Im getting money now but people think Im changing
Now Im just celebrating that we finally made it
You dont like, you dont like what I do
They see me going big, Im making it
Im getting money now but people think Im changing
Now Im just celebrating that we finally made it
You dont like, you dont like what I do
Look, this isnt entertainment , I aint no entertainer
This is your education, learn not to be a hater
Moving up like elevators getting close to my destination
Hand this vest and Ill detonate em
Blow up something, thats stress relieving
Im in a world where the money makers get the pleasures
So all the pretty girls will fuck you if youre spinning cheddar
I mean the pussy good, but I feel success is better
The best defense are friends who love you when they felt the pressure
Pressing up and they go compressed and now Im part of their conversations
See my life as less complicated, theyre contemplating my conversation
my place dont waste my time cause I aint done celebrating
I never thought itd feel this good to say we finally made it
They see me going big, Im making it
Im getting money now but people think Im changing
Now Im just celebrating that we finally made it
You dont like, you dont like what I do
And I swear this shit feel like my birthday
Hub City my birthplace uh
Youd rather roll over than live in a blizzard, or die in an earthquake
This could be a catastrophe, no one got the audacity
To show blasphemy, to the god of rap, nigga I go back like an artifact
And I got my weight up, all is fat is brought to you by
Kendrick and the all-mighty eye, HiiiPower
And I tower, over yall like Im 12 feet tall, every hour

Brace yourself, orthodontics
Orthopedics, I collect, your bones, if I need it
Mars Venus, thats the planets, I go to when I wanna be organic
Earth place too fake ha touche
Unguarded every time you pump fake uh
Pump brakes uh, nah, never that cant wait nah
Im living by the G-code nah mean, killin rappers til they break uh
None, of, yall, ball, like, I, do, every time I slide through
My pimpin just remind you that
They see me going big, Im making it
Im getting money now but people think Im changing
Now Im just celebrating that we finally made it
You dont like, you dont like what I do
They see me going big, Im making it
Im getting money now but people think Im changing
Now Im just celebrating that we finally made it
You dont like, ohhh
See Im, staring at the world in my rear view trying to get a clear view heaven only knows what Ive been through
Barely on my toes are a tissue, trying to get a hold of my world is an issue
Show my potential, know that Im here to beat
If you orderin b, Im comin with speed to crush every dream and your is true
They only really start to hatin when they go against you
Im easy to get at , Im hard to get to
Life said pick a number, any number to describe the feeling
Im selling four down, bout 15 hundred yeah
They see me going big, Im making it
Im getting money now but people think Im changing
Now Im just celebrating that we finally made it
You dont like, you dont like what I do
They see me going big, Im making it
Im getting money now but people think Im changing
Now Im just celebrating that we finally made it
You dont like, you dont like what I do |

Visions of Gandhi Baldly Staring at me
They put his face on the money to show him smiling happy
Capitalism, I cant hold on for very long
So place your visions on paper im getting very shabby
Godly speaker, play messiah, Holy Swiggy, Pass a beaker, Place a order... Hallelujah to the very greedy
From the Back i Boo
They Say that im very wrong
My five senses of fuck you are going very strong
Touch my middle finger
Curse with my breath
The sight of a sinner, hear the footsteps of death
My heated arguments, make your book shelfs to melt
And in the pursuit of taste, serve yourself instead
You see im Brahmin, man i never heard a pistol
But my ancestors got the Pig Fat cartridges to bite into
Buddist Laws forbid you
You kinda miss the issue
The British came convinced you for the trade
They took your tissue
Like you
Slaves!!
Slaves to Hii Power
Slaves!!
Slaves to Hii Power
Slaves to your MRS
Food for though bitches
Everybody Slaves, we fall for those riches |
Uh, me and my niggas tryna get it, ya bish
Hit the house lick: tell me, is you wit it, ya bish?
Home invasion was persuasive
From nine to five I know it’s vacant, ya bish
Dreams of livin life like rappers do
Back when condom wrappers wasnt cool
I fucked Sherane and went to tell my bros
Then Usher Raymond Let It Burn came on
Hot sauce all in our Top Ramen, ya bish
Park the car, then we start rhymin, ya bish
The only thing we had to free our mind
Then freeze that verse when we see dollar signs
You lookin like a easy come-up, ya bish
A silver spoon I know you come from, ya bish
And thats a lifestyle that we never knew
Go at a reverend for the revenue
It go Halle Berry or hallelujah
Pick your poison, tell me what you doin
Everybody gon respect the shooter
But the one in front of the gun lives forever
And I been hustlin all day
This-a-way, that-a-way
Through canals and alleyways, just to say
Money trees is the perfect place for shade
And thats just how I feel, nah, nah
A dollar might just fuck your main bitch
That’s just how I feel, nah
A dollar might say fuck them niggas that you came with
That’s just how I feel, nah, nah
A dollar might just make that lane switch
Thats just how I feel, nah
A dollar might turn to a million and we all rich
That’s just how I feel
Dreams of livin life like rappers do
Bump that new E-40 after school
You know, “Big Ballin With My Homies”
Earl Stevens had us thinkin rational
Back to reality, we poor, ya bish
Another casualty at war, ya bish
Two bullets in my Uncle Tony head
He said one day Ill be on tour, ya bish
That Louis Burger never be the same
A Louis belt will never ease that pain
But Ima purchase when that day is jerkin
Pull off at Churchs, with Pirellis skirtin
Gang signs out the window, ya bish
Hopin all of em offend you, ya bish
They say your hood is a pot of gold
And we gon crash it when nobodys home
It go Halle Berry or hallelujah
Pick your poison, tell me what you doin
Everybody gon respect the shooter
But the one in front of the gun lives forever
And I been hustlin all day
This-a-way, that-a-way
Through canals and alleyways, just to say
Money trees is the perfect place for shade
And thats just how I feel, nah, nah
A dollar might just fuck your main bitch
Thats just how I feel, nah
A dollar might say fuck them niggas that you came with
Thats just how I feel, nah, nah
A dollar might just make that lane switch
Thats just how I feel, nah
A dollar might turn to a million and we all rich
Thats just how I feel
Be the last one out to get this dough? No way!
Love one of you bucket-headed hoes? No way!
Hit the streets, then we break the code? No way!
Hit the brakes when they on patrol? No way!
Be the last one out to get this dough? No way!
Love one of you bucket-headed hoes? No way!
Hit the streets, then we break the code? No way!
Hit the brakes when they on patrol? No way!
Uh, Whats on a young niggas mind ya bish
Benjamins and killing time ya bish
The quickest way to make the quickest pay
Even if its doing crime ya bish
Dreams of livin life like rappers do
But for now I guess this sack will do
They told em money the root of all evil
He hugged the devil the moment he seen em
It go Halle Berry or hallelujah
Pick your poison, tell me what you doin
Everybody gon respect the shooter
But the one in front of the gun lives forever
And I been hustlin all day
This-a-way, that-a-way
Through canals and alleyways, just to say
Money trees is the perfect place for shade
And thats just how I feel, nah, nah
A dollar might just fuck your main bitch
Thats just how I feel, nah
A dollar might say fuck them niggas that you came with
Thats just how I feel, nah, nah

Jay Rock, K. Dot
Watts City finest, and the Hub City threat
LB I see you my nigga
Lets go
Im trying to get cash, quick fast
In the back shes a
With past of Trinidad
plenty hash up in the stash
When you got gangsta black up in the back room
When I walk back, more vicious than wildcats
I would have swallowed that
Nickerson Garden projects gain the profit
Of my lyrical content
Build a monument
Gotta put a clip to your conscience
Watch this, pull up on your block in a stick-shift
Pop six, watch you fall just from the fifth hit
The spliff lit, when Im high cant I spit sick
First round, number one draft on shit
Got the mind of a chief, the heart of a soldier
With a rifle got a hell of a range like rover
And the fight, got a hell of a strike like vipers
When the gat, got a hell of a aim like snipers
You wanna act tough
Lets see if you really are, when this gun busts
Oh you say you want war, nigga lets go
Bring the drama, thats on my momma
You dont wanna rumble
Jay Rock Ill put you under
(You wanna act tough
Let me see if you really hard, when this gun busts
Oh you say you want war, nigga lets go
Bring the drama, thats on my momma
You dont wanna rumble
K. Dot will put you under)
Since VapoRubs moms got my Nyquizzle
I was just a scrub now its all about the bizzles
Trying to make a buck slinging weed and E pizzles
My nigga hit me up, and as far the stizzle
Ill eat your ass up show you how a bullet fizzle
Get your ass touched one hand on your whizzle
The other on the clutch, my middle finger up
Shit Im not giving a fuck
Catch me on Rosecrans and Central leanin like Im supposed to
My brain is mental a nigga stay focused
Plus Im in the hood with the hood rats and roaches
Caught crack, and served a three-fifth on my culture
Desert Eagle on me these niggas acting like vultures
I aint dying homie I swear that your thoughts is bogus
Keep the iron on me Ill crease you flat if you approach us
Acting how you act you gone get some out of that holster
You wanna act tough
Lets see if you really are, when this gun busts
Oh you say you want war, nigga lets go
Bring the drama, thats on my momma
You dont wanna rumble
Jay Rock Ill put you under
(You wanna act tough
Let me see if you really hard, when this gun busts
Oh you say you want war, nigga lets go
Bring the drama, thats on my momma
You dont wanna rumble
K. Dot will put you under)
Im a Watts living soldier nigga
I aint running, Ima stand my ground
Ima keep on gunning
My momma never raised a punk, nigga I aint a chump
You disrespect youll be on my thump
Ghetto kill, make you lift up
You dont wanna get struck
Like a match, got a back
Thatll break a shit bruh
I attack with a Mac, thatll tear your shit up
Now the paramedics gotta come and make that pick up
Dog, I hit your block in a pick-up
Jay Rock Im me, a lion, a man, a
I do it by myself, with a hook and an uppercut
Doctor got a stitch you up
Nigga are you real or what
Im a little guy but Im tough
I hit hard then Im natural
You a dead man when my gat bust
If you running nigga better run a little faster
These bullets like Heinz oh yeah theyll catch ya
You wanna act tough
Lets see if you really are, when this gun busts
Oh you say you want war, nigga lets go
Bring the drama, thats on my momma
You dont wanna rumble
Jay Rock Ill put you under

Let me see if you really hard, when this gun busts
Oh you say you want war, nigga lets go
Bring the drama, thats on my momma

Lyrics from Snippet
Give it no thought, the people is pressed
The feeling is gone , pull up at the church
Pull up to the bar and look at the—
Fuck the county , fuck the law
Fuck who doubt me
Fuck the leeches, fuck the industry around me
Fuck your pro-
-ch
Vent, vent
Vent, vеnt |
Damn girl looking good in your baby phat
You got an ass a skinny nigga could handle that
Look I aint T-Pain I dont love strippers
I might buy em a drank if that ass thicker
Look I’m a hustler I like to get the cash quicker
And I don’t settle for less I’m not no ass kisser
I’m the ladies man bring your lady friends
I’mma bring my niggas and we can get it in
She like to pop pills, I like to pop steel
And leave a bitch ass nigga with a doctor bill
You fully load ma you don’t need Dr. Phil
I got this Mary Jane shit ease your mind forreal
Lets take a trip to my apartment
Take a lil shot of patron get it started
You fuckin’ with a gangster tonight so say goodbye to the waynester type
You with the Rock
Let me tell y’all something
I seen this bitch right she fine than a motherfucker I ain’t gone lie straight up
I take her home though, fucked and got off, pitbull type
Now do I love them hoes, hell no
Take her to the swap meet before Melrose
Benihana, more like like Top Ramen noodles
Champagne no sweet Kool-Aid made by Sherane
Send her back to her boyfriend with cum stains
I redesign bitches wardrobe
All I do is make up something then sit it between her earlobes
She thinking no one ever invented clothes
Used to hide the camera in the closet
Now I’m like I’m doing you a favor to fuck you bitch pose
They don’t even want to go to award shows
They just wanna award me with hoes
Put em on a track like vocals
Leave em for a day and they want their master back like the first album by Jay
I dash with the dividends no shit if Big Pimpin is a sin then I rather not repent
Girl on the phone
You know I need my master back like Jay Z first album
Okay I got this one girl her name is tity pop her name is what?
Her name is tiny pop I met her at USC she’s a good girl |
This is special, man. As my guy Mozzy say, you know, God up top all the time—real talk, you know. Hip-hop, man. I said hip-hop.
This is a special award because of rap music. This is the thing that got me on the stage. This got me to tour all around the world, support my family and all that. Most importantly it showed me a true definition of what being an artist was.
From the jump I thought it was about the accolades and the cars and the clothes. But it’s really about expressing yourself and putting that paint on the canvas for the world to evolve for the next listener, the next generation after that, you know what I’m saying? Hip-hop has done that for me.
I got a lot of guys in this building right now that I still idolize to this day: Jay-Z, Nas, Puff, you know. These guys showed me the game through their lyrics, from close and from afar.
So with that being said, this trophy to hip-hop, real talk. That’s love, baby. Jay for president! |
Tell me, who the bitch nigga hatin on me?
Jumping on my dick, but this dick aint free
An album for a King, another classic CD
Ghetto lullaby for every one-day MC
Nigga, now R.I.P
My diligence is only meant to write your eulogy
Tell me, who the bitch nigga hatin on me?
Tell me, who the bitch nigga hatin on me?
This shit another blood, another crip
Gettin shot in they ribs
Over gang warfare, Im gettin dibs
On the WFS motherfucker, make him drink his jizz
Tellin lies about me when Im tryna make it in the biz
Pop open my coke and feel the violеnt fizz
Wagyu got me fatter than motherfuckin Dr. Ryz
Likе Dunford, Im finna pop a kid
I see bag of hash, next thing Im finna place a bid
Lay back, jack off in the crib
Tell me, who the bitch nigga hatin on me?
Jumping on my dick, but this dick aint free
An album for a King, another classic CD
Ghetto lullaby for every one-day MC
Nigga, now R.I.P
My diligence is only meant to write your eulogy
Tell me, who the bitch nigga hatin on me?
Tell me, who the bitch nigga hatin on me?
As I lay back, in a Maybach
Or properly pronounced Maybach
Life hurts more than my back
Shout out Sa Vich, my man
Been fuckin with women longer than my mans
I dropped from the skylands
We been gettin high, man
Then we break an iPad
13, motherfucker! I just made a finance
Tell me, who the bitch nigga hatin on me?
Jumping on my dick, but this dick aint free
An album for a King, another classic CD
Ghetto lullaby for every one-day MC
Nigga, now R.I.P
My diligence is only meant to write your eulogy
Tell me, who the bitch nigga hatin on me?
Tell me, who the bitch nigga hatin on me?
I remembered you was conflicted
Misusing your influence
Sometimes I did the same
Abusing my power full of resentment
Resentment that turned into a deep depression
My diligence is only meant to write your eulogy
My diligence is only meant to write your eulogy
My diligence is only meant to write your eulogy
My diligence is only meant to write your eulogy
My diligence is only meant to write your eulogy |
My name is Lucy, Kendrick, you introduced me, Kendrick
Usually I don’t do this but I see you and me, Kendrick
Lucy give you no worries, Lucy got million stories
About these rappers that I came after when they was boring
Lucy gon fill your pockets
Lucy gon move your mama out of Compton
Inside the gi-gantic mansion like I promised
Lucy just want your trust and loyalty, avoiding me?
Its not so easy when Lucy know you love your Father
Im Lucy, I loosely heard prayers on your first album, truly
Lucy dont mind, cause at the end of the day youll pursue me
Lucy go get it, Lucy not timid, Lucys up front
Lucy got paperwork on top of paperwork, I want...
You to know that Lucy got you—all your life I watched you
And now you all grown up to sign this contract, if that’s possible
I ride shotgun with a shotgun, I ride shotgun with a shotgun
I ride shotgun with a shotgun, Jesus take the wheel
I ride shotgun with a shotgun, I ride shotgun with a shotgun
I ride shotgun with a shotgun, I ride shotgun with a shotgun
Jesus take the wheel |
Yeah
Punch whats happening brother?
Niggas be poppin that shit to me like its something new to me or something, I tell em bout
I tell a nigga quick, that shit just a rerun to me nigga
Ive been doing this shit since vanguard brother
Antonio whats happening with it?
Niggas hatin on me but hop right on my dick soon as they see me
Soon as they see me they be like
What up Dot?
Thats what they tell me every second around the clock
Every time I clock in, rappers checking they watch
Studio paid for, hours unlimited
Assholes, how many MCs I knock off they payroll
How many God MCs I knock off they halo
Hip-hop aint dead, consumers changed up
Rappers love to see gold like the end of a rainbow
I stay low like my socks under my ankles
Play the back like a turtle shell, know well
That my team got me if I ever slack on my shit
So I fail, guess what? I dont even trip
Just like that, crush your little battle raps, punchlines
I did that in 99 you think its a gold mine
When you think of one, you think you hot but I think you done
Like Queens New York slang, look what the killer brung
Machine guns to a fight, fucking right
Pay your bills or Im turning out your lights, good night
I shatter niggas dreams, thinking they the West Coast kings
Till I drop like visine
Tell a nigga quick it aint always what it seems
Like the stitching on swap meet jeans
Im itching to scratch a whack rapper, gun clapper
Snuff him like a rude capper, got a cool bladder, but Im pissed off
At ya
The real is back
Fuck the artificial, wont you let the realers rap
They scribble in they notebooks, me I state facts
Safe estate, they know where the best be at
Whenever I ask,
Body any nigga that wanna holla my name
And what, no cuts, this is Top Dawg gang
What the fuck, everybody else, pull your panties up
Nigga said hed snatch my chain in the streets, what chain?
I barely wear jewelry, so I ever had one
You barely see it on me, and if I ever had a gun
You wouldnt know its on me, so snatch it and then you done
Im in the studio just sipping on Parmesan
Thinking about who could fuck with Kenny and parlor sons
I live this shit, try stop me, you wont live to shit
Probably catch four between your abdomen
Next time you see me, dont ask me who Im collabing with
Between me and you, some of the new West is actresses
New hate activists, lowkey cant stand our shit
But still we continue to drink laxatives
Cold blooded, make the label hand me your budget
This is mine dont touch , did I stutter?
Catch two, cats knew, I been a gorilla, welcome to the zoo
Yup, you little monkeys know what it do
Come test me
The real is back
Fuck the artificial, wont you let the realers rap
They scribble in they notebooks, me I state facts
Safe estate, they know where the best be at
Whenever I ask,
Body any nigga that wanna holla my name
And what, no cuts, this is Top Dawg gang
What the fuck, everybody else, pull your panties up
Dayum, you killin em K-Dizzle
And if you dont kill em then you send em to hospitals
Sleeping on a reclined bed with a thin pillow
Im with a white bitch, ass like a black widow
Bet I jumble to the end of my lifeline
So when I die, you can say I balled for a long time
The 08 Frankenstein, beast like Sasquatch
Feet size thirty-six, steppin on Hip-Hop cause thats my bitch
I write a rhyme, then she ride my dick
The girl is mine, I dont know that hoe that you with
You niggas know this, Im way better than Ive ever been
So focused, like a sniper when he zoom in
Whats your motives? I bet its to go against
Or like the GT get your bitch ass bit, all on these streets
Im the all mighty K, Compton
Rep it till my very death day, let the reaper in his face
And recite every song from N.W.A
I pay homage for those great who paved the way
Wait, back to the subject of whos and who doesnt
Do what I do, bluffin until I touch em
Like a masseuse do, nothing compares to me
But the throne, so tell em bring the chair to me
Im a red bullet, small nigga
But I handle yall niggas like Im eight feet tall
Nigga |
Dropped 40 for a Glock 40 thats a hood discount
Thats an accessory gun, sesemy seed buns
For the beef yall brung, yall done fucked up
Fucked with the wrong fuck up
Ive been a nut since pops fucked moms
Fucked up in the head, Im living, but Im brain-dead
Life goes on and you dont need a psychic in order to read my palm
Niggasll get you first where Im from
Thats why I Creep on em, I creep on em, I creep on em
Niggas play cool, put the heat on em
Make the temperature reach the highest peak on em
I said you dont need a pyschic in order to read my palm |
I got a bone to pick
I dont want you monkey-mouth motherfuckers
Sittin in my throne again
Im mad , but I aint stressin
True friends, one question
Bitch, where you when I was walkin?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin
Queen Kunta, everybody wanna and get somethin
Kunta, black man taking no losses
Bitch, where you when I was walkin?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin
Queen Kunta, everybody wanna and get somethin
Kunta, black woman taking no losses
The yam is the power that be
The yam is the power that be
I got a bone to pick
I dont want you nappy-headed motherfuckers
Sittin in my throne again
Im mad , but I aint stressin
True friends, one question
Bitch, where you when I was walkin?
The yam is the power that be
The yam is the power that be
The yam is the power that be

The yam is the power that be
The yam is the power that be
The yam is the power that be
The yam is the power that be
The yam is the power that be |
Im lookin at the flashy lights and wonder - the price and number
Enticed by the glamorous ice, I wanna
Unite with the Hollywood twice, my concert, ll look like yours
And I wanted more than I could ever imagine even a kicked-down door
So you can hear that Im rapping, see, I can hear encore
Struck by the fame bug, been fightin the same drug
The feelin that caned us in vain, its tough love
Please help me, please help me
Im on my knees, please help me, need you to tell me
Aint nothing bigger than you, I thought a Benz would do
But nothin bigger than you, aint nothin bigger than truth
And truth be told, the totem pole
Of non-believers just made the cattle blow
But I can see ya, even when my visions impaired
Youre many moons away, but still youre right here
You won’t find him drinking under tables
Rolling dice or staying out ’til three
You won’t ever find him be unfaithful
You will find him, you’ll find him next to me
You won’t find him tryna change the devil
For money, fame, for power out of greed
You wont ever find him where the rest go
You will find him, you’ll find him next to me
Next to me – wooh hooo
Next to me – wooh hooo
Next to me – wooh hooo
You will find him, you’ll find him next to me
When the money’s spent and all my friends have vanished
And I can’t seem to find no help or love for free
I know that there’s no need for me to panic
Cause I’ll find him, I’ll find him next to me
When the skies are grey and all the doors are closing
And the rising pressure makes it hard to breathe
When all I need’s a hand to stop the tears from falling
I will find him, I’ll find him next to me
Next to me – wooh hooo
Next to me – wooh hooo
Next to me – wooh hooo
I will find him, I’ll find him next to me
When the end has come and buildings falling down fast
When we’ve spoilt the land and dried up all the sea
When everyone has lost their heads around us
You will find him, you’ll find him next to me
Next to me – wooh hooo
Next to me – wooh hooo
Next to me – wooh hooo
You will find him, you’ll find him next to me
Next to me – wooh hooo
Next to me – wooh hooo
Next to me – wooh hooo
You will find him, you’ll find him next to me |

We Get High
Johnny always lock a nigga down
Knowing damn well we dont wanna see the box like Manny Pacquiao
Little nigga Mayweather size, ride like Pac
In his prime, thug life is now on radar
Til the federal come through and raid ours
Reminiscing when the LA Raiders
Was in my home, snapback fitted on my uncles dome
And I dont condone dickriding, Im addicted to
Westsiding, living in a city where the skinny niggas die
And the semi bullets fly, but it turn me to a lion
Trying, and I mean that shit
Game came through, put the city on his back
I was in the city with a nigga, had seen that shit
Compton!, a nigga gotta scream that shit
Never went commercial, never T.V. screened that shit
Cant block or screen that shit, now everybody sing that shit
Smoking, choking, always rollin something
I dont need a key to start my car bitch, I just push a button
Did a show and got a half a mill and spent it like its nothing
Money flowing, never sober
Smoking till I got concussions, no discussions
Man I got a condo and got a big crib
Pounds all over my kitchen is
If I aint on the road gettin it
Then Im in the hood where my niggas live
Did a tour, sold it out, just bought a pound bout to finish it
Now all my pasta got shrimp in it
You talk about and Im living it
Fucking little bitch |
I cant be faded
Im the nigga from the motherfucking
I cant be faded
Im the nigga from the motherfucking street
Its so much drama in the bottom of Watts
Kinda hard bein jay motherfuckin rock
Gains cop from bitch niggas that wanna see me flop
It aint happening captain wait till my album drop
More money, more hoes, of course more haters
When you see, they gon hate you
I cant be faded, cant be seen
Yea the thangs a blow
Til your head, lord knows where your brains will go
Trigger finger itchy
Rollin with killas that leave a 6 in your wig piece
Going against me thats blasphemy
Im a blood, got crips thatll blast for me
Nigga you know my gang, its tighter than blood nigga
I got some because im hot like a slug nigga
Walk up in the club with the slug, chained a bitch
Flexed up then, them thangs will spit nigga
You better duck when I aim the shit
I cant be faded, I am the shit
Jay Rock
I cant be faded
Im the nigga from the motherfucking
I cant be faded
Im the nigga from the motherfucking street
Went from flipping monkey on bars
Gang-banging, caine slanging now Im chilling with stars
Grew apart, got the hood on my back
From L.A to the bay, West Coast we bringing it back
Make way, I got the base in the trunk of my car
Middle finger to laws
All I gotta say is fuck em all
I blaze a pound for them niggas behind bar
Free my nigga Poodamey
Homie just stand tall
My nigga two ts the bitch killer

Welcome to the story of my life, Miseducation of Kendrick
Stressin, Hennessy shots, throw em back like its vintage
Wondering can I live? Where is the generosity?
Something just gotta give, tryna stay positive
My mode is to be a mogul
Searching for a dollar without compromising my vocals
Really Im just a noble
Kid from the west side of Compton
My cousins was selling crack, while I played Sonic
You say that you grinding, you niggas is full of shit
And might need a Heimlich
Maneuver to throw up what you consume
My shine is bright enough to make a dead flower bloom
In a room full of curtains
Im for certain that Im certainly popping a pistol verbally
And never will I get shot, ya aim is all fucked up
As if a Sidekick dropped
Im nice wit it, bro-bro
My peeps depending on me, we be where the stove go
Lets eat
British lay em down, thanks for the fuckin bank
William Wallace Malatov blonde shank to sprank
You cold in the D well Im like Frank and Dank
But when the whiskeys all free ima break the tank
I speak an amazing maze
To make a mason maybe need a matron
Hey, my sonics bless ya drums like a patron saint
In Section 80 they all talking like you reppin crazy
Blood Type O positively, yeah my records rabies
Been there, done that, aint got the scars to match
Beware, these boys shoot flares and pull masks
Got gas, spread the mustard on the custard
Vanilla muthafuckers up and droppin by the numbers
She jackin up my lumber, I aint even say I love her
Piss blood on these bitches tryna keep me ground under
Hunger games with lames, now I drive in my own lane
Ever since supporters started tatting the frames, MAYDAY
YEAH...yo
So many try to Dr. Jekyll and hide
And try to cover the side
That I could show you in pride
They try smoking the line, then try sniffin the joint
If rap is about the money these niggas missin the point
I cant, stand bias from people who never stand by us
I got a feeling for killing innocent stand-byers
I give a fuck if we could float ya boat
Its Blood Type, nigga cut ya throat
Im done, BAH....Chiefer
I said be grateful and give some thanks
And he said man, for what?
I been outta my luck cuz I been stuck
And plus Im broke as fuck
So shut up and pack it up or take it elsewhere
Get a nigga off this welfare, with some healthcare
Can you help there?
He thought he deserved and had the nerve to kick the blame to me
But strange to see how it came to be
This game just aint the same to me
And I aint gon sympathize or look in his eyes
And tell no lies
So I said FUCK WHAT YOU HEARD
THE TRUTH BURNS, BETTER RECOGNIZE
We have yet to see....
Where these roads will lead
So we take what we want
And give thanks when we receive
We have yet to see
Tomorrow may not be
So we take what we want
And give thanks when we receive |

Damn industry niggas |
Its still Dre Day nigga, AK nigga
Though Ive grown a lot, cant keep it home a lot
Cause when I frequent the spots that Im known to rock
You hear the bass from the truck when Im on the block
Ladies they pay homage, but haters say Dre fell off
How nigga?
My last album was The Chronic
They want to know if he still got it
They say raps changed
They wanna know how I feel about it
Its Alive
Still puffing my leafs
Still fuck with the beats, still not loving police
Still rock my khakis with a cuff and a crease
Still got love for the streets, repping 213
Still the beats bang, still doing my thang
Since I left aint too much changed
Now I done grew up round some people living their life in bottles
Granddaddy had the golden flask backstroke every day in Chicago
Some people like the way it feels, some people wanna kill their sorrows
Some people wanna fit in with the popular, that was my problem
I was in a dark room, loud tunes, looking to make a vow soon
That Imma get fucked up, fillin up my cup, I see the crowd mood
Changing by the minute and the record on repeat
Took a sip then another sip, then somebody said to me
I rap with a Pyrex
In the projects
Im crack in a pot
Im a prospect
Im a pirate
On a dock full of dope
I can dissect any rapper
You could vote for the Lochness
You can not test no key in a Tesla
Bitch, I ride like a freight train parked outside
And my young niggas came with the extras, ah

They knew he was West Coast when he walked thru the door

Rag in his back pocket, nigga, dare him to trip
Faded and associated with the Bloods and Crips
Ask questions if you want to, two to ya dome
I stay making donations to the funeral home
I gotta aim like a marksman, bet he leave crawlin
Afghanistan spitters on anything walkin
Nigga known to keep the burner with some extra shots
I let my mothafuckin tech play connect the dots
Same whores and gang wars, time to settle the score
Hit em all with the black talons, leave em dead on the floor

Let the fo burn him, so the next time you speak up on me
You gon feel it up in your sternum
I will never leave, thats just how it is so let it be
Before I have to hit you with the Desert Eag

Monopolize my prophecy, they watching me thru binoculars
Obviously, bitch, Im Pac in these Wallabees
Wanna-bes wanna be me, take one of these then take it easy
The Lord wants you and Forbes list need me
Lord forgive me for my ways, I blame it on how I was raised
Inside of a cage, praying with slaves
Compton, California, the coroner work for seven days
Throughout the week, you might as well leap yourself to a grave
Lunges out a bottomless pit, bottles of Hennessy
Guzzle another fifth, pop a pill then pop in the clip
Pop a shot then circle the block, then you just repeat it again

Blood stain saw all over his black range, uh
Catch him at the lights to turn off his lights mane

Career bout to take flight, G4 plane

What nigga, toss bullets like flea flickers
To the fullest, Ima get it to the core
And they tape pictures, yellow tape, stretched out, inches
I cant wait like the first day of school
Waking up, three in the morning, looking at my shoes
But this time around, I be looking are my tool
Wiping it down, every other commercial now
Hold my mom, its nothing to hurt you
Two straps on my side, Im looking like , blaw
Did I do that, yes I did

Two trigger fingers over one bomb, let it breathe

Plans must have change
But Im still here
I even let the backdoor open
Come on now
Kill em, kill em, send em to the morgue
Let em fill him with a brimming fluid
We aint sorry for nothing
We aint tryna play hardcore nothing
But you overdid it when you push the button
So we caught the USSR, push the button on it
Let it blew up a few cars
You really dont want it and your homie dont want it neither
Shoe string, choke em up, let em get no breather
No pressure, black and white, the skies
Looking like uncle Fester, poppin up on you guys
The .22 fit right between my bitch thighs
If you blink once, it be pointing right between your eyes
You better off tryna plan your own suicide
Cause its nothing, but torture if you want you to die
The 745 got weed in it, riding with the .45, times two the speed limit
I pop eyes for a that spinach
Cut em down to the white meat, have em no skinnin
Im not finish until my niggas ate too
So any given time they can grace you
What you want? Casket, await due
My pain in a box is quite more you
So they can see the damage done at the wake view
Hide em hollow tips, hopscotch on the face you breathe
So yall still aint here
So I guess theres a first time for everything if yall dont come
But Im still here
In fact Im still waiting for someone else
Punch

Mother of statistics they rap with metaphysics

Gangsta, gangsta, gangsta x |
Whose house is this? Money out the … can’t count that shit
Stacking death prez, mouth to mouth that shit
When they said a nigga wouldnt amount to shit
Now whose house is this? Laughing so hard my tongue is out and shit
Run you dick suckers, keep me out that bitch
Before I spazz and squirt and I’m out that...bitch
Broadcasting live from south central Los Angeles
Where the babies born scandalous
The street I keep my hand in it
The gun I keep my hand on it
Niggas is going to need bandages
If I brandish it ambulances, the chance you make it slim nigga
I’m good in the hood cause I motivated them niggas
I graduated from dumb hoes and mault liquor
To expensive wine and dime bitches
Red lining the DB9 like it’s my time pimping
Audemar quality time spending
And you niggas is borderline bitches
That’s my opinion
And my niggas is ride or die Aftermath my religion
Talk out but I don’t listen
Act out and come up missing
That click clack pow did it
Like Colin Powell did it
And I’m so west coast, ok corral with it
My new foreign car cant pronounce that shit
You fuck around…count that shit
Whose house is this? Money out the … can’t count that shit
Stacking death prez, mouth to mouth that shit
When they said a nigga wouldnt amount to shit
Now whose house is this? Laughing so hard my tongue is out and shit
Run you dick suckers, keep me out that bitch
Before I spazz and squirt and I’m out that...bitch
Broadcasting live from Compton California where foreigners never come
Mothers are worrisome and we dislike the governor
I hope these angels can cover us
If the LAPD ain’t doing it then it was a cover up
Coroners about to cover up everybody
I’m serious, every shotty is sawd off
And every nigga is militant
And your gut like...What?
EBT Cards, no credit cant ease cards
All my life beed OG aw now my life on the billboard soon
Give me room, I react like a wildebeest and
Throw salt inside your wound your just diabetes to me
Aint shit sweet with these hotels homie
That crip shit got my uncle’s life in jail ho
So if I put the same line, theyll never forgive me
Or worse than that the niggas right around the corner might kill me
I’m fighting back when it’s hard what
No barber my guards up, the author of fallen fathers that did it without much, this my house nigga
Whose house is this? Money out the … can’t count that shit
Stacking death prez, mouth to mouth that shit
When they said a nigga wouldnt amount to shit
Now whose house is this? Laughing so hard my tongue is out and shit
Run you dick suckers, keep me out that bitch
Before I spazz and squirt and I’m out that...bitch |
From the very heart of me
Belief becomes action
And no distractions will take my eyes off the prize
Greatness is my goal
But theres failure on the way
Full of insecurity, self-hate and doubt
But what I cant control cant confine me
And what I cant do cant stop me
This is how I express myself
Not how I follow others expectations
But how I stay true |
How Long you been Banging?
I been banging sense 85
On the real this shit aint no gimmick
Or no game my nigga! this hit is real live
Thruthful type shit my nigga!
You know what im saying?
On the real my nigga!
And I lost a lot of real niggas to this hit
Yeah...Coughs
You can smell marijuana in every corna
From South Central to Arizona
You heard the state, the murder rate
The killer cali-California
Cops get caught outside the Compton court
By cold killers like they caught Pneumonia
See the 90s was like Pulp fiction
Jerry curl juice drippin
On 45s when we dumpin on ya
Grew up in the slums were we glorify guns
& Gain respect by jumpin on corners
& Dumping at you, cops just jump in action
Trigger happy but nobodys gun is smiling
When somebodys son is dying
911 thats who you dialing?
Ku Klux Klan that who you dialing?
Killers wear blue and move in silence
Hear the sirens? Scatter in disarray
My blocks been hotter than dinner plates
We got beef like a foreman
You laying dormant at your wake
Real superheroes end in coffins with no capes
Me & Kendrick Top Dawg, Dogg Pound, Future rich Shit
Picture that with no Instagram, bullet to your temple
You better pray that my pistol jams
Yeah!
Kill kill kill, murder murder murder 8x
Killa cali you can try you can die motherfucker!
Killa cali you can try you can die motherfucker!
Compton Shit! Yeah! Dope Boy I fuck with you nigga!
Uh, fuck em all, kill em all off
Sent em off to the Holy One
Put a hole in one like miniature golf
You doubled your profit?
Well I see triple like Ricky Ross
Hand over the cloth, cloth over gun
Gun over your jaw, bullet over your tongue
Stick my dick inside hip hop and shorty sprung
Every time I get a chance to cum over I overcome
Over the snare drum
Say who fucking with you if you the God MC?
I tell em nun! Get it? I tell em Nun
Catholic nor a Christian, holding the book of sums
In back of my true religions
From the murder capitol niggas cap at your neighbors
And never tell you who did it
Aiming for your grill like a dentist working on British
Teeth if you speak get shot in the mouth bitches
Its like that sent shots at a crip or a blood or an Essay
Bet they coming right back....RIGHT?
Bitch! uh west Scoe Gotti Yeah
Gun shots wake me up from a light slumber
Another murder what I see when I open my shutters
We from the gutter no bread and butter just lead and water
Either you bite the bullet or you can die from the hunger
The suns getting lower, the corners getting darker
Guns getting loaded to slaughter our sons and daughters
Its time to get smarter cause times getting harder
Every second the unemployment line is getting longer
Baby crying and mama she dont know what to do!
I know its tragic but in the projects its nothing new
Im just kicking it luxury cliquing it
Watching the news the shits fucking ridiculous
Roll a cigar cup full of codeine
Cash in a rubber band pistol in my other hand
Killa cali this the realist state most expensive real estate
Benz with the dealer plates ! |
Come on… She wanna roll…
Catch me in the cut with a cup of the juice
I’m chilling, believe this, I’m Jesus to women
They all want to jump in my coupe like a pigeon
Smokey on Friday, find me on the highway
Middle finger up, not giving a fuck
Like a nun who masturbates, congratulate
The in my bathub
See, my style is a cast of
Goldie Mack, super fly, Bumpy Johnson
Holding my Johnson when you jump on my dick
Because haters always like to jump in the mix
Say they can dress but always throwing a fit
They must know I got cream when I’m pushing the whip
That’s whip cream, use your common sense when listening
I strike gold when I roll like a pirate
Soulo won’t you call T-Mobile and play the sidekick
I’m number one…
And you ain’t gotta say my name is on point cuz…
And you ain’t gotta say my game is on point cuz
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
You ain’t gotta say my game is on point cuz
And you ain’t gotta say my name is on point cuz..
My game on point like fingers in the courtroom
But I ain’t snitching, I’m just winning
I’m just twisting high with the flyest women
Lay ‘em down in my project building
They catch feelings like root canals
I boot ‘em out when they talk about lovey-dovey
Shut up and fuck me, low key with my broads
Make sure they never cross paths
Cuz if they ever do it’d be all bad
I play the role like Samuel L
Tell the hoes what they really wanna hear like
You my boo, you my baby, you my number one
Drop it off in the drop then tell another one
And you ain’t gotta say my name is on point cuz…
And you ain’t gotta say my game is on point cuz
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
You ain’t gotta say my game is on point cuz
And you ain’t gotta say my name is on point cuz..
Ab-Soul, what you gonna tell me, I ain’t trying to see the grave
I’m just trying to get fresh to death
I’m in the club with a mean two-step, like the sisters to Cinderella
The clock strikes midnight
I’m still in the spotlight like a lab rat, bad back spazzing out
Sip henny until I pass out, or mash out like a sack of potatoes
Looking for a good girl gone bad from Barbados
To bring to the pad
Not for the mouse, but to the house, calling a cab and I’m kicking ‘em out
Nah, I don’t run it like Chris Brown do
But I can make a tune you can sip Krystal to
My game on point cuz my aim is sharp, even when it’s dark
Travis Bark, famous star, rider
But don’t blame the car, I’m an eye’s desire
You would go blind sizing up my attire
And you ain’t gotta say your boy is that hot cuz I know I’m that hot
Like arguing with a narc with rocks in my socks
I walked in the door, she said “Who are you?”
I said SOOOUUUL |
Yeah
7:30 in the night, yeah
Ooh-oooh, ooh

Mama, dear, spare your feelings
Im relivin moments, peeling more residual
buy the building, burn the building
Take your bitch, rebuild the building just to fuck some more
justify my love for you
And touch the sky for God to stop, debating war
Put the pussy on a pedestal
Put the pussy on a high horse
That pussy to die for
That pussy to die for
Peter, piper, picked a pepper
So I could pick your brain and put your heart together
We depart the shady parts and party hard
The diamonds yours, the coupe forever
My best shots might shoot forever like
I get those goosebumps every time, yeah, you come around, yeah
You ease my mind, you make everything feel fine
Worried bout those comments

Woah, oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
Doing what I gotta do, aaaa
What up though?
We the best music
Oh, I guess Im on my Don shit
What that mean?
Ima go, aaaa
DJ Khaled
Straight up, late nights mixed with early days
Itll probably be that way until the pearly gates
Stress weighing on me, they want me to nervous break
These hoes showing fake love when I prefer the hate, man
Least if you real then I have to respect it
Realize the energy you give is what you manifested
So understand we positive as could be
The vision is still intact, the show is fresh out of seats
Boy its never going south less we down in South Beach
Khaled on the jet skis, preaching what you believe in
Everything fast cept the food, watch what we eating
If it add a couple years to our life, then we might go vegan
Woah, I hear a little bit of me in all your favorite rappers
You know its true, bitch I need respect due
Now or later, either way Ima take it
Just like its fuckin taxes
You made it up while we made it happen
I kill shit to just kill time, no chill time
In the field on time every time like its drill time
I took a break from my girl so she still fine
Took a break from the game, but its still mine
Got my big break, now we tryna break the records
These niggas couldnt take the pressure that I ate for breakfast
Pretty girls showin love like Im David Beckham
The takeover will only take a second, straight up
And Ima celebrate it for a long time
They tried but couldnt break me, now its all mine
Surrounded by my angels and we all shine
Holy, holy, holy, holy key
And Ima celebrate it for a long time
They tried but couldnt break me, now its all mine
Surrounded by my angels and we all shine
Holy, holy, holy, holy key
Everything I touch may disintegrate into dust
Everything I trust may dishonor me in disgust
Everything is everything, affidavits and wedding rings
Out for blood on my higher horse, I report what it was
I dont wear crosses no more, Yeshuas coming back
I aint scared of losses no more, I see life in that
I dont resonate with the concept of love and hate
Cause your perspective is less effective and rather fake
The universe and the heavens work in my DNA
Kendrick said Fuck Mother Earth, thats PSA
The land of the wicked, the foundation of Lucifers spirit
Walking zombies and spellcatchers, I pray for forgiveness
Uncle Bobby and Paul June is lost again
The underworld and the fourth dimension, my familys in
The big money, the fast cars, my life produced
The blocks I connected while re-building this Rubiks cube
So what you look up to?
Fame and fortune, bitches, Porsches
Sources with designer thing
Brand endorsement joining forces with sorcerers signing me
Law enforcement their forces, tortures us with violent speed
Fuck your bosss employment my joy is to see all you bleed
Two new Royces with choices of color my desire need
Crab and Oyster with gorgeous abortions, I require thee
Flesh and poison the point is the reason
You wont die in peace
Open door for my boy, now they eating, we say, finally
I destroy and divorce what you eating, dont you hire me
Tape recording my voices and tweak it
Lets play hide and seek
War distortion and forfeit this evening, you should try at least
Im restoring the portrait of feasting, nigga, I am beast
I dont like to sleep, Im up like coyote, I might OD
Hair like ODB, Im off a higher need
Khaled is valid, I been looking for inspiration
But when you the only king, you the only one in the matrix
And Ima celebrate it for a long time
They tried but couldnt break me, now its all mine
Surrounded by my angels and we all shine
Holy, holy, holy, holy key
And Ima celebrate it for a long time
They tried but couldnt break me, now its all mine
Surrounded by my angels and we all shine
Holy, holy, holy, holy key
Holy, holy key, holy |
All those days and all that stays in
I dont keep it, I wont be here for it
All those days and all that stays in
I dont keep it though, I wont be here for it
Blood on my hands and it look like candy
How I pay-pay lawyers, and nobody cant stand me
Yeah-yeah

You know what this what kings do, lay up and stack in the gate
This what kings do, throw family first its real
This what kings do, think about flyin a Persian, yup
This what kings do, vacate lands in Egypt
This what kings do, breakdown plans with speeches
This what kings do, make sure mamma is right, yup
This what kings do, hit Dubai in a night
And this how kings move, yo, hold your money and invest wise
Whether you sellin buttons, or select pies
A king move, keep it silent, no one else dies
We all Pharaohs and Cameros, flexin S5s
Its what a king do
This how a king move
Blood on my hands and it look like candy

Pardon my Bohemian ways
I know I act like I be stuck in a Bohemian daze
You said you love me, so dont rush me
Love is patient and now you gotta trust me
To take form, like the canvas of the Grand Canyon
Product of a beautiful storm or an unborn
Carried just below the heart
Quietly preparing for his start
Let me Michelangelo my Sistine Chapel
You know they say Rome wasnt built in a day
And diamonds need a while before they hit the display
So I guess I see myself in a similar way
Im paced, like my momma in the kitchen whipping
Always mixing up and fixing
Begged her for a taste and she said it wasnt ready
She stir it up slow and she cook it up steady
This is not a race track, living in the ASAP
Im just trying to do it justice when it play back
Sometimes I gotta stall the BPM
So I can weave these dreams and polish up these gems
In the end, I got love for the show biz
But sometimes you gotta stop and smell the roses
Keeping up with the Kardashians and Joneses
Nah, I take my time and compose this
They say greatness get better with time
They say concrete roses hard to find
Sit inside my room, and let these thoughts bloom
Its a secret garden in my mind
Flower child
Okay, buffering, creativity suffering
When you bustlin hustlin for the numbers and
You missed the journey if you climbed too fast
The beauty of the struggle when it comes to pass
Amateurs swear they need a balancer
I want that legendary like excalibur
Chasing calibers liberated as a bachelor
Traveler, never falling victim to these calendars
Rough draft after rough draft
No staff, perfecting on my abstract craft
And now they calling me celebrity
Only thing I give a damn about is my integrity
They play the game like checkers when Im talking bout chess
Tryna do more when Im talking bout less, I stress
Quantity aint always quality
So let me formulate my prophecy
When the lights get low and you notice I am the sun
The winter time was snow but only little you know
I will still breathe, give me the keys
Im resuscitating the game, see me in CPR
My name is a gun cocked, gun shot
Dead and I wont stop
Gun cocked, gun shot
Head in a pine box
With a dozen roses, hold this with a gift card
Gun cocked, gun shot
Flowers on your mommas yard
They say greatness gets better with time
So why expedite my prime?
See Im just a lilac tied to the earth
Exuding the fragrance of light and birth
So respect my photosynthesis
My petals, my stems, full of nourishing flow
You thought this was a love song, but no
I just need you to let me grow |
Pour up , head shot
Sit down , stand up
Pass out , wake up
Faded , faded
Nigga, why you babysittin only two or three shots?
Ima show you how to turn it up a notch
First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it
Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

Now these niggas dont want me to win
I guess I just gotta talk my shit then
Aye
like Top Ramen is spread from the bounty
This hunter is aiming straight at your head, niggas doubt me
Tell em they better count me in, like Dracula
Packing a black mack in the back of a magnum
You rappers is gon go
Thats one hell of a punch line but lets get back to the flow
Left jab hit your nose
Right hook fracture your skull
Your body is free
Put luxury tax on your soul
Thats what they yelling when Im pulling up
Like a rough rider working out in the hood and stuff
They say I aint in the hood enough?
Bitch Im a transmission
The pump leak when your oil slipping
And I been in the kitchen, like a toaster
With them toasters, hang you like a Willie Lynch poster
East side vulture, preying on your dead caracas
Sorry I was starving
Niggas out here dont want me to win
So I talk my shit again and again
Imma talk my shit
Imma talk my shit
They say I aint got what it takes to win
So I talk my shit again and again
Imma talk my shit
Imma talk my shit
Imma talk my shit cause I made
Every stripe that it takes
To be able to write what I say
The beat made you hype for the day
The beat made me write with a sway
Me and Jay bring the night to the day
And bring the night to the page
As far as bars go
Literally up there fam I call the stars home
Im by far past far from the forlorn
I leave this bar open unless you log on
Figure that part out
Wikipedia that
I Wikipedia whack and look up your stats
More fuckers start hiding when they get on the track
They ducking behind the snare like I aint divvying that
And if you speaking of the speaker
Im the speaker that the speakers applaud for
Speaker that the speakers turn on for
Im leaking through the speakers on all yall
My short term speaking is long haul
Your speaking is all gone
Niggas out here dont want me to win
So I talk my shit again and again
Imma talk my shit
Imma talk my shit
They say I aint got what it takes to win
So I talk my shit again and again
Imma talk my shit
Imma talk my shit
Straight from the Pyrex pot
Im a crack rock wait
Grab the A1 sauce lets raise the stakes
Catastrophic K.Dot
Currently stacking currency
Bet I make profits like Im God
Every instrumental get dealt with
Burnt and melted
Jump in the water
Jaws is ready to eat you selfish
Im cold hearted
Thats for sure
Talk shit like a nigga farted
But the smell came out the other hole
Hol up, big truck
Lurking the premises
Pull up, hoes rubbing they clitoris
What the fuck?
This is K.Dot, they pray I
Fall like a jump shot
From they favorite player
With seconds on the clock
Im here to souffle ya
Turn rappers into
Anything barbecued
Theyre miniature party food
I get spizzy
Like Im Hugh Hef Come fuck with me
One first tonight
Might change your life, right?
Yeah
Imma talk my shit
09 is mine nigga
Aint no stopping me homeboy

Get with it or get lost
Roll with it or get rolled the motherfuck over nigga
Skyzoo wassup my nigga

Top Dawg Entertainment nigga
Get with it or get lost motherfuckers
Aint no stopping us nigga
Yeah |
Lyrics from Snippet
fuck up the vibe
go through my phone, you make me lie
We only look better when we dont got to try
Girl you look better when you dont got to try
Real niggas still in style
Real women still in style
Fake hoes out of style... |
Cause, baby, now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look what youve done
Cause, baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
Now we got problems
And I dont think we can solve them
So take a look at what youve done
And, baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
Did you have to do this?
I was thinking that you could be trusted
Did you have to ruin what was shiny?
And now its all rusted
Did you have to hurt me when Im weak?
Baby, I couldnt breathe
And rub it in so deep
Salt in the wound like youre laughing right at me
Oh, its so sad to
Think about the good times
You and I
Cause, baby, now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look what youve done
Cause, baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
Now we got problems
And I dont think we can solve them
So take a look at what youve done
And, baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
Did you think wed be fine?
I dont think I want you back in my life
So dont think its in the past
These kinda wounds they last and they last
Now did you think it all through?
All these things will catch up to you
And time can heal, but this wont
So if youre coming my way
Just dont
Oh, its so sad to
Think about the good times
You and I
Cause, baby, now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look what youve done
Cause, baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
Now we got problems
And I dont think we can solve them
So take a look at what youve done
And, baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
Band-aids dont fix dont you know
You say sorry just for show
If you live like that, you live with ghosts
Mhmm
If you love like that, blood runs cold!
Cause, baby, now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look what youve done
Cause, baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
Now we got problems
And I dont think we can solve them
So take a look at what youve done
And, baby, now we got bad blood, hey! |
Fair warning, people would have never had a problem
If the naysayers or the doubters would have got him
Slumped in the corner, for sure Im a goner
Shoot with no aim, so them niggas couldnt spot him
Now I got a question, if I really even want it
When this shit is like a trip through the city of Sodom
Gomorrah, the horror, stories are endless
Workshop, working all night, no apprentice
Funny when a nigga speak truth he a menace
Ushered in the underground, lifelong sentence
Theres where I dwell, aint no need to cry for me
Rapper gonna eat, and I eat well
Its been six years since I stepped out the shell
Talent on the rise to the top, I propel
Big Dho set sail, your boy gon win
Bet niggas act crazy when they see us again
Im really going in, Ive been had nothing to lose
So I choose to take yall through a spin
A journey through the mind of a sane ass artist
If you spitting blah-blah shit, you a target
If you spitting blah-blah shit, then just forfeit
What go around come around, now they all on my dick
Kendrick Lamar, Im bout to get my mop stick
Niggas bump their gums, and their bitches be bumping my shit
I fry your optics, if you watching my style, watch it
Tyrannosaurus reading thesaurus, hold rappers hostage
Catastrophic, its 9-11 when Im repping
Skip college to fly first class, learn a lesson
Straight brutal, roman numerals
Number one eating Ramen noodles, rhyming crucial under the sun
Kudos to the most high, which is me
I probably make em plan their suicide, so usually
I aint never been with the shit starting, but yall done started some shit
Im bout to drink some ex-lax then commence
To returning the favor to all of my neighbors and comrades
Calm down, you more like Trina than Trinidad, lets box now
Throw your dukes up
Pussy probably holding Daisy Dukes and C-cups
I look inside this industry and I dont see much
I just see lunch, and your shit thats more bore like tourists
Im laid back, my feet up, how cool is that?
The twenty-ten Kool G. Rap, whenever I rap
I got my arsenal strapped on my back, Im ready for war
They tend to look for me when they fiend for Afeni Shakur
Conversing, not hibernating, under the planet core
At thirteen I cancelled PG-13 and went for gore
Thats what I pledge
Its profound that Im underground touching mainstreams like river beds
Yeah, they saying he a breath of fresh air
They cant smell all this weed that I brought in here
Black & Mild smoke still linger on my clothes
So unprofessional, I shouldnt be meeting with millionaires
Pull up a chair, Ill school you to it
I was a student truant that never studied, just always knew it
You just new to it, with no clue on how you should do it
Like youth in junior high school when pubertys blooming
And mind you, I never mined you, I aint digging for gold
Honestly, I just want to stick my dick in some hoes
Kick a flow, hit the dro with my bros
Tippy-toe in this rap game, make a lil name
With this lil lane Ive been paving since I was a teen
That I never really thought that I would attain
When Big Pooh dropped Sleepers I could barely get a feature
They aint know this regular nigga would be the future
Ive viewed the roof from the floor, Ive been here before
Im finna blow a couple of times over like two tubas
And Im a still want more with this appetite
Till the critics stop giving me mixed signals like traffic lights
You know? The lavish life, but for now Im the new Kunta
A slave to my rhyme book, a line of mine, your times up
The bastard kissing your bitch with the blackish soup coolers
Shell testify, excuse Judas when Im crucified |
I dont need the hype
They call me- fuck it- I dont need no introduction
No ad-libing my name 100 times for nothing
You already know its K. Dot, city of Compton
Analogy is like Biggie and Bed Stuy, Oakland and 2Pac
Im more focused, Im nothing like you new guys
Struggling over a few lines thinking you hot
Cause your homey said you you was a few times
Which is too many times
They lying to you, they telling a lie
The only time I lie in the booth is when I sleep in it
Record 24 hrs, you niggas better get your bars up
I bench press this rap stuff, got it locked like handcuffs
I threw away the key, my cool is on, she love my A/C
My juice is on, and I wish one of yall try to rob me
I shoot, and have you laying between the sheets with the eyes leased
I push the coupe like a high speed
The helicopters come and realize that nothings behind me is behind me
Your honor, I fuck over this beat with no condom
This aint rap its really a porno, re-wind me back
Finally the finest of em all is back
To define the laws of crack, yall dont obey
Yall aint nice, yall just OK
Youre nothing more than a little John phrase
Im Mike Jordan in his prime, modern day Issac Hayes
Theme song to Shaft, equivalent to the theme song to your career
Study my craft, you ignorant, I do it without a pen and pad
Just inspiration: something you never had
If my pockets is something you trying to grab
I pull out the rocket and peel you back like scab
You old news, you old dudes get out of my way
Let the young boy come through; dont mention my age
Im on a mission for pay, and you astronaut niggas just crowding my space
You not in my atmosphere, you can act like you here
But actually you aint accurate fucking with the music biz
The industry like, Fuck it, let the music be his
No theme park, Im not trying to amuse you kids
Small shark, jaws is here, jump in the water
Do he really fuck with President Carter?
My reply is that I cant stay away from the bosses
Got the bidding war popping like an auction
5 or 10 labels like what he hitting for? 7 zeros or more?
Remember having Aftermath sitting on my door
Money in front of me, couldnt open the door
Boom! Thats that, left him on his back flat
You talking like that, jack, spitting
About crack, but never been about that
Im real with this rap, Im just speaking the facts
Rap, but some niggas wack, talent something they lack
So gather your whole pack, Im taking them off the map
My pockets is getting fat, their pockets, they staying flat
So imma just hollaback, they rocking their tiny Js
But niggas aint getting paid in the spot, like they a slave
12 hours just for some change, man this shit a shame
When the feds come, who you gon blame? But thats just
Learning the game, you niggas should do the same
They go as fast as they came, cause passing me you aint gon see
I go bar for bar, and b, you are just a target, b
So just call me Muhammed Ali
Easy shit be hard to do, easy for me and hard for you
Im leaving you with the , pick up a broad, bout three or two
Life is like a puzzle but my level is some trouble, man, you gotta use your muscle, in the hood I had to tussle
Man, Im moving to the shop, , man youre not
Niggas steady talking but barely looking in the spot
Im so far ahead of my time, I got people 5 years from now pressing rewind
Im hardly a friend with yall, i hate rappers, where is your artist at?
If it aint a good picture youre draw, dont bring it to the architect
Often you arguing bout who got next, claiming youre running the game
Niggas are barely walking yet, hopping all over beats without studying training camp
Try studying a few greats then maybe youll be where im at
Your songwriting aint great, your mixtapes mediocre
You recycle the same quotes, youre not switching the flow
Your flow in the same place, just dont rap; elaborate
Try to expand, try to be more creative perhaps
My rap friends, i aint saying youre wack, psyche
Like an in-voice, Im just stating the facts, right?
metaphores i write, in fact, its been a factor
Youve feared your whole life, no TV show
Dont compare me with them, thats like a shark versus Nemo, a gorilla to a chimp, Jordan versus Kukoč
A Tony Montana with blow on his nose to a Nino |
All those days in, all that stays in
I dont keep it, I wont be here for it
All those days in, all that stays in
I dont keep it though, I wont be here for it
Blood on my hands and it look like candy
I pay-ay lawyers and the mic cant stand me
Ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah
I got lood on my hands and it look like candy
I pay-ay lawyers and the mic cant stand me
Ya-yah, turn me up, ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah
Ya-yah, ya-yah
This what kings do, talk paper and skate
You know what this what kings do, lay up and stack in the gate
This what kings do, throw family first, its real
This what kings do, thinkin about flying the up
This what kings do, vacay lands in Egypt
This what kings do, rake down plans with speeches
This what kings do, make sure mama is right, yup
This what kings do, hit Dubai in a night
And this how kings move, yo, hoe your money and invest wise
Whether you selling buttons or select pies
A king move, keep it silent, no one else dies
We all pharaohs in Camaros flexin S5s
Its what kings do, this how a king move
Yo, yo, yo, yo, ayo
Blood on my hands and it look like candy
I pay-ay lawyers and the mic cant stand me
Ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah
I got lood on my hands and it look like candy
I pay-ay lawyers and the mic cant stand me
Ya-yah, turn me up, ya-yah, ya-yah, ya-yah
Ya-yah, ya-yah |

Money over bitches why you bullshiting nigga
Listen pull up in something with the roof missing
You dissing four-five thatll leave your roof missing
Who tripping true spitting cadillac coupe dipping
Crew whippin wit yo bitch present this is new pimpin
Roll up get a cup only Hennessy sippin
West Coast jumpin like a low-low
Three-wheelin we feelin
Like the New Dynasty dominating the Nation
Pamona pimpin when im sippin that hard liquor
Hit the studio with mo cuts than a cold sensor
Nigga what, im a west coast predator
Pteradactyl when i sink my teeth in the beat
Got a lock like Armostol? shakles around her feet
Glock in my right palm got my strong arm steady like kwali
Make it hard for you to get by the silencer is so serene
Sound like a california ocean breeze, no lie
So high really though put hoes on video
Run trains like blue lines on Subways
While you save em like coupons we throw away
Extra large Magnum wrappers
We them nasty rappers
We them Magnum blasters
Say hello to the pastor
Coughin up a loogie when Im walking past your casket
See I dont give a shit about my enemies
Feel the same way about a bitch
Speaking of a bitch these hoes is no joke
Tell a story any chance they get
Where my money at? She talking bout she broke
Now I can dig in her left pocket
Dig in her right pocket, dig in her back pocket
Pull money out of all three and still swear up and down that she dont got it
Bitch, you must think Im the fool
You better hop up on the track and put that pussy to use
Now, I oughta go upside your motherfucking wig
But you lucky your little boy called the police on me the last time I hit you
In front of yo kid |
And I spent a couple bucks on this, yea
Just to be like nigga you aint up on this
And I spent a couple bucks on this, yea
Just to be like nigga you aint up on this
Okay, headed to that swap meat
Coppin all that Avalon
Fresh white Ts and some Js what I had in mind
I remember days when a nigga didnt have a dime
Now I got big dollas, I just buy whatever come to mind
Choppas squeezed, I remember when I used to window shop
Now I hit the mall, buy it all cus Im on the top
Boss like I used to dream of this moment
Used to roll that stress, now I roll that kill, I call it coma
Step inside my ride, I know you smell the aroma
6-50 top back, chillin on my corner
Used to be MacDonalds, now we eat at Benihanas
5 star suites with freaks, thats on my mama
They tell me money evil but it wash away my problems
Dont matter what the price, lil mama just know I got it
Aw, it aint trickin if you got it
My bank account solid and my wallet need a diet
I used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
Used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
Used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
Used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
And I spent a couple bucks on this, yea
Just to be like nigga you aint up on this
And I spent a couple bucks on this, yea
Just to be like nigga you aint up on this
Like my nigga meet me outside
These homies rush me just so they can steal my flashdrive
My music that important, imported in iPod
Buying my CDs like payin ties, act God
Im sure success will taste better than nectarines
Growing in the spring, baskets the fruit of life
Had the boy arrange me every time I pick up the mike
I hop my entertainment be a bigger impact than Mike
Can I live like the princess of Munda?
Got a princess to groom the lacks o my scalp with a golden comb
And Im on, Cloud 9, stopping acts like in the sky
Im from Compton, cant you hear me coming like Im from the shy
Im inspired from a magic twice, which art is a rep and run?
But if they knew my intentions the reff and probably run
Im just a good kid from the city who made straight As
Tryna make the transition from Rose to Kool Aid
I used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
Used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
Used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
Used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
And I spent a couple bucks on this, yea
Just to be like nigga you aint up on this
And I spent a couple bucks on this, yea
Just to be like nigga you aint up on this
Okay, started as a youngin, now Im at the top
Used to ride the city bus, now Im at the car lot
And we live up in the mall now, something like a regular
I ball every day like clap, I got my cheddar up
I used to smoke dirt weed, now Im smoking better
But in school I couldnt get a girl but now Im getting groupie love
Now Im seeing better days, mamas so proud of me
Do it for my grandma but I know she lookin down on me
Reach in my pocket and grab big bills
If this is Caribbean rich I like how this feel
Hah, and aint nobody help me get here
If you lookin for me at the top is where Ill be, Ill be there go
I used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
Used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
Used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
Used to be broke but now Im ballin, Im ballin
And I spent a couple bucks on this, yea
Just to be like nigga you aint up on this
And I spent a couple bucks on this, yea
Just to be like nigga you aint up on this |
Ive been known to flip on niggas, spaz on bitches
One state of mind, Im out for the riches
Ive seen good crack, uncle stuck in the kitchen
Now behind prison, phone calls cant visit
Seventeen, half of my life has been explicit
Rated R content, no supervision
With you talking nonsense, Im not trynna listen
Im a point guard, small forward, play your position
Before you wind up in the lake with the fishes
On a blind date with a crocodile, vicious
I switch the flow so you say that I sound different
But the flow is the same reason my dick kill bitch kissing??
And thats the same reason your not in my competition
Cause I swear right now that none of yall existing
Fall off is probably what you wishing
But I cant stop, wont stop, young gunning you niggas
Ive been known to have stash for the burnnin
And break a bitch down to the point that I learn them
And when I get dough, Imma let you know, throw the cake in your face like Ike Turner
I turn a schoolgirl into a dick smuggler, sex publisher, rated X government
See me in the hooptie boy, its not a cover up
See Im a young black boy who dont give a fuck, what
This that gangsta shit that make you wanna grab your shit
Cock back and blast some shit
Empty, reload the clip
You wont find nothing hotter than this
Whatcha know about it
This that gangsta shit that make you wanna blaze this spliff
Get drunk, grab a fifth, open it, guzzle it quick
You wont find nothing hotter than this
Whatcha know about it |
Doin fifty on the shore, Range no tags
Punch pulled up, Kendrick in the back
A Da Bu$iness in that rag, Phantom on feet
And Problem in the diamond light pushin that GT
Hood niggas with class, give respect where its due
Came up with one boo and that was just to stay true
True to my music and everything that I do
Instead of practicing me you should focus on doin you
So nigga fuck yo crew, what you wanna do?
Wack emcees never get no love Im not enthused
And you can save all ya non-creative point of views
Cause me? Imma produce and you just reducing ya crew
Now how Im posed to work if I aint gettin paid?
Gotta call Terrace Martin if you cant call Dre
Now with that bein said there is nothin else to say
Was already understood, doesnt have to be explained
If it was never lost, how could it be saved?
I do this for my soul, I do this for LA
I do this for the love, man I do it for the game
And the memory of Miles Davis and John Coltrane
How could you blame them bastards, when they aint have no raisin?
They dont want no higher learning, they stick to the basics
And they dont wanna work for that white devil cause he racist
Neglected of knowledge, thats all they know, how could you blame em?
And I hate to say it but I had to as a man
We cooperated with em and fell victim to they plan
And after losin Malcolm and Martin they scared to take a stand
If I call em pussy its some bullshit, when will it end
So I dont really care bout who they say who is the best
All I know is that it shows within my music and my checks
I swear this is the best thing next to havin sex
Geek smashed on niggas wont let my foot up off they necks, yep
Huh, strap it on me and let me solidify
And purposely intertwine, my positive thoughts apply in genocide
Compton communists are, shiftily, in peace
Whoevers in charge like Charles no sit-com
Beat him like a kick drum
Rip a hole from his lips to where the nigga shit from
Compton, Cali nigga!
Its all music, rule-less
Like a Ali fight, pushin Al Green or Barry White
Boy this Cali lifes amazin
Palm trees, bomb weed and bitches
All my aprons and rubber gloves went cookin in hells kitchen
Bustin shots that could crack back spleens
The lil rapper that could commercialize the backpack scene
Who sick? Boy, shit ... Im vaccine on flight green
Paper planin on the plane in first class, mad?
Because Im on the bubble of success
Stressed over life, street still pokin out my chest
Bitches love my confidence, I wear it like a vest
Sippin Rosé Moët, drinkin til Im lost
Hustlin everyday, bail away my thoughts
Anticipatin the win but, ready for the loss
Got her livin like a boss; Tony Danza, been bananas
Since the red rags of bustin out a stanzas
Problem, answer, not one found!
Mayweather couldnt box me into one sound, he wouldnt last one round!
My songs clever, my pens better, than ever
A trendsetter with a vendetta...
Big bag of chips on my shoulder standin tall like a soldier
Snakes in the grass I laugh dodgin the cobras!
Scraped from the past, we amped wantin the Kobra

Intergalactic astronomical avenue business man, finish him
Raining fatalities cause Im like Vegeta said
Light em up make you feel like six million megawatts
My momma still wonder why I dont think straight
Run this shit like a relay, run that back like a replay
Come off the bench and will win and T balls like Im Ebanks

Been bleedin em since we was orderin Jordans off of Eastbay
Bang thats what the heat say, in the game call me EA
Da billion dollar Bu$iness fuck the witness and the DA!
Lets raise aware-wolves, vampires, like the shit gets spookiest
Monsterous, zoo in the movie we call it the zoovie...
Where they smart to come out he wearin under that tool
From a cold winter degrees thats hotter than juvie
Aint new to gangbangin so all that gangsta shit dont move me
Fuck yo tats, know inside yous a bitch
And no matter how you dress we still sit through all of that shit
So fly Im never taintin you maggots still on my shit

Little Mario dont care if you off a flower
No star Ill take ya princess for ransom Im King Kooper nigga!
And this heatll spit faster than a cheetah sprint
Dragonball, Super Saiyan on my Vegeta shit
A fact-avist and I aint talkin no civil rights and shit
Kickstand leanin in Secret Sundays, with a ratchet bitch
I South Centralized the game with my hustlin spirit
And Terrace Martin mastered me, so I know you hear it...
Da Bu$iness...
Put three fingers in the air
And say the word HiiIPower
Kendrick:
Five star general in a G ride
Got my seat back, chiefin like a Seminole, no centerfold
But picture that, picture me, picture Terrace, picture P
Takin shit from some nigga that shit right there sound dumb nigga
We gotta post stay in the street, take what we deserve and yeah I
Serve on any artist thats my word that yall are targets
Im retarded on the mic, Special Ed.,
And bitch I call you special when you give up special head
I gotta feelin its gon be a lot of killings Kendrick
Cause when I spit a verse I bring a hearse to every sentence
And put it in reverse and try to decode it
They on my dick and deep-throat it
They dont know it but boy I am a henchman, for hire
I require wack emcees, tell em that Im burnt like Swap Meet DVDs
Tell em that I earnt my respect on what you didnt do!
Aint nothin difficult your admirations pitiful! Shame on you twice
Lifes a gamble so Im comin out the gate with tricked dice
7-11, 7-11, backed on that
Its been a long time comin since I bodied a track
Im back up in this bitch like the ass and pussy was fat
I put my city on the map like I represent a post
Comp-town soldier, welcome to Iraq
Be ready for combat, or die on your sofa
Brains on the plastic, yo stains on the cabinet
YUCK! And if I fell off goddamn I would probly land in a deep thought
A nigga need Spam for the shit yall brought
I go H•a•m in the Brougham bank corners like Im Moss, fuck!
Headed to the coroner
Im one of ya your run is up my gun is TEC Im comin for the
Common sense of commentators that say I dont love enough well
Yall some haters tie em up and kill em later I am such a
Horror-vator I am so messed up to be replyin and
Whatever favors mine are sick and hold up player I is fighting
Any favors I invite in meaning lasers beaming off the
Sun until I have a son and see you later motherfucker... |
Tire marks, tire marks
Finish line with the tire marks
When the relay starts I’m a runaway slave
Ugh, walking on water and running on waves
God MC Oh my God you gotta see
There’s never no Is in me
Of an Odyssey, I’m a block away
Fire marshals moving in
Marshmallows inside my pen
Sweet sixteens
Got a sweet sixteen and they deadlier than sin
I’m so appalled
With the prototype with a godly protocol
You an amateur, they wanna pro to call
I damage ya on camera, in Compton, in Canada
I don’t care where ya are
Just blink twice and I’m there where you are
Like a shadow in the dark, you a paddle in the boat
In an ocean full of sharks bout to come up short
Water in the pot, flow crack rock like Bam Bam nigga
Have two grams nigga pay up or blam blam nigga
Had a black Camry, bumpin Dipset, Killa Cam nigga
I had been around niggas, killas, pimps
You ain’t been around shit but your momma and your bitch
Shoved off the porch when I was like six
Uncle Bobby got the house raided back in 9-6
Kick in the door
K9s all in the kitchen way before I even heard of Mike Vick
Momma in the bathroom poppa at work
Happened on Sunday we shoulda went to Church
Look at my shirt, Polo on it
It’s gon sell if my logo on it
I fear no opponent
A demon come near and I might throw a spear at the omen
You looking at the 2010 Romans
Empire, Hiiipower HP, in ya face like HD
And I spit like a HK
I’mma shot like a H3, H-U-B-C-I-T-Y, A-B and Y-G
Problem and Hootie nigga
Tell the government come shoot me, nigga
Cause I’m going out with a fist raised
And a fist full of money give it to a fifth grade
Drink a fifth of Hennessy and then take another fade
With a democratic politician from CA
They don’t wanna see a B-L-A-C-K
Making some scratch like a hall of fame DJ
Give us some free J’s put us in PJs
Now we in the county jail calling for a three-way
God-Damn, yall cold
Mark of the beast wear your god damn bar-code
Stuck in the street where its dark like Harpo
Black man tell me where your God-Damn heart go
Although I’m in the land of milk and honey
Nobody never gave me shit, when I got my first chain
All the niggas tried to take it from me
I had to fight back and shit
Get it back and shit
And you rap niggas looking funny tryna talk back and shit
Like he back that shit
Acting like you real or something
Nigga aint popped no steel, aint popped no collar
Go pop some pills or something
You trying real hard to appeal to someone
I’m being myself, my BFF is a BM-dub
With your BM in it and your stash box glove
And the medicine a doctor gave a nigga wont help
I’m at the limit where I be amazing myself
I bet I finish on a level with a Black belt
I bet I hit it where every rapper get killed, like
Bla bla bla bla where the knife at?
Cut cut cut where your life at?
Your careers over, he’s slumped over
And if Im off beat know I’m un-sober
Thats a new flow
Pl-, Plus Q gave me some Kush and some Nuvo
New dough for the new year and I sumo on a rap peer
Not a rapper, I’m a raptor
Thats a T-Rex in a V-neck for the rapture
I’m a factor and your facial
I will fracture to a fraction
No one-half and I hate math
Pastor’s like Eddie long, fucking maricon
Took me mighty long to get here
Nigga, Fuck! |
The first sound we hear on good kid, m.A.A.d. city is a prayer: Thank you, Lord Jesus, for saving us with your precious blood, voices murmur, evoking a family dinner gathering. The albums cover art, a grubby Polaroid, provides a visual prompt for the scene: Baby Kendrick dangles off an uncles knee in front of a squat kitchen table displaying a 40-ounce and Lamars baby bottle. The snapshot is such an unvarnished peek into the rappers inner life that staring at it for too long feels almost invasive. This autobiographical intensity is the albums calling card. Listening to it feels like walking directly into Lamars childhood home and, for the next hour, growing up alongside him.
Lamar has subtitled the record A Short Film by Kendrick Lamar, and the comparison rings true: You could take the albums outline and build a set for a three-act play. It opens on a 17-year-old Kendrick with nothing but pussy stuck on my mental, driving his mothers van to see a girl named Sherane. As his voice darts and halts in a rhythm that mimics his over-eager commute, Lamar explores the furtiveness of young lust: Its deep-rooted, the music of being young and dumb, he raps. The song is interrupted by the first of several voice mail recordings that delineate the albums structure: Kendricks mother, rambling into his phone and pleading for him to return her car. These voicemails appear through the record, reinforcing that good kid, m.A.A.d city is partly a love letter to the grounding power of family. In this albums world, family and faith are not abstract concepts: They are the fraying tethers holding Lamar back from the chasm of gang violence that threatens to consume him.
All this weighty material might make good kid, m.A.A.d city sound like a bit of a drag. But the miracle of this album is how it ties straightforward rap thrills-- dazzling lyrical virtuosity, slick quotables, pulverizing beats, star turns from guest rappers-- directly to its narrative. For example, when Backseat Freestyle leaked last week, its uncharacteristic subject matter took some fans by surprise. But on the album, it marks the moment in the narrative when young Kendricks character first begins rapping, egged on by a friend who plugs in a beat CD. Framed this way, his damn, I got bitches chant gets turned inside out: This isnt an alpha males boast. Its a pipsqueaks first pass at a chest-puff. Its also a monster of a radio-ready single, with Kendrick rapping in three voices over an insane Hit-Boy beat.
Lamar grew up in Compton, and ghosts of West Coast gangsta-rap haunt this albums edges, casting shadows on Kendricks complicated relationship with his hometown. When The Art of Peer Pressure brings Kendrick and his friends to Rosecrans Ave., the music downshifts into menacing G-funk mode as a salute to hallowed ground. Ice Cube’s “Bird in the Hand” is invoked to set up “m.A.A.d city” , which appropriately marks the moment when real violence erupts. Here, Kendrick sounds like a terrified kid: I made a promise to see you bleeding, he raps, his voice pitched at a pleading, near-hysterical sob. In response, the voice of Comptons Most Wanted rapper MC Eiht leers, Wake yo punk ass up, like a father figure of the Darth Vader variety.
Which brings us to the albums most visible benefactor and most unsettled presence: Dr. Dre. In recent months, Dre has availed himself of the fresh-career oxygen Kendricks rise has pumped into his atmosphere, lumbering out of his corporate airlock to stand with Lamar on magazine covers. But the role he plays in Lamars story feels muddled and unresolved. On an album that manages to seamlessly work a smirking Drake and a highly recognizable Janet Jackson sample into the fabric of a larger narrative, it is only Dres appearance, on the final track Compton, that feels like an uneasy outlier.
Compton is the victory lap, the coronation. Coming after the stunning 12-minute denouement Sing About Me, Im Dying of Thirst, in which Lamar delivers a verse from a peripheral character that is the albums most dazzling stroke of empathy, it cant help but be a small deflation. The moment of arrival in any artists story is always less interesting than their journey, and theres a disconnect in hearing Lamar and Dre stunt over Just Blazes blaring orchestral-soul beat. Dres music is part of the landscape that Kendrick grew up in but his actual appearance has a certain Truman Show feel to it.
But the true ending of good kid, m.A.A.d. city takes place at the end of the previous song, Real, which represents the spiritual victory that the albums story has thrashed its way towards. Finally grasping that none of that shit-- money, power, respect, loving your block-- make me real, Lamar embraces what does, as his parents put the albums central concerns to bed: Any nigga can kill a man, his father admonishes. That dont make you a real nigga. Real is responsibility. Real is taking care of your motherfucking family. And his mother: If I dont hear from you by tomorrow, I hope you come back and learn from your mistakes. Come back a man... Tell your story to these black and brown kids in Compton... When you do make it, give back with your words of encouragement. And thats the best way to give back to your city. And I love you, Kendrick.
