[Intro: Kendrick Lamar] | |
One two, one two, one two | |
One two, one two, one two | |

Turn the headphones up Ali | |

You mix with Dre, right? | |

[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar] | |
When the whole world see you as Pac reincarnated | |
That’s enough pressure to live your whole life sedated | |
Find the tallest building in Vegas and jump off it | |
But I could never rewrite history in a coffin | |
So I’m talking to God, “Can you wash all these demons off me?” | |
This last year I’ve been quite similar to Aaliyah | |
Control my own destiny, only rapper that steered | |
A G5, g’s give high-fives to me and say, “Kendrick, just persevere.” | |
The presents of being rare | |
As I lay in this four corner room staring at candles | |
Thinking, “How can I make an example, for this generation of Compton?” | |
My biggest fear is not feeling accomplished | |
Or turning back to that same accomplice | |
My past life was a child with no act right | |
Trying to smile in a room of killers, turn into a crash site | |
Influenced by niggas that spoke the gang culture fluent | |
Assuring that some blossom early and some truant | |
Thank God for the album I idolized | |
It’s dark and plus hell is hot, that’s the start of this crazy ride | |
Two young niggas, me and Dave inside the garage | |
And thought we was Jay and Dame | |
Thats the lane that we tried to drive | |
Truthfully, I just started rappin’ to get away | |
I never thought that your favorite rapper would want a verse | |
My nigga got hit 25 times with a K | |
Make the decision, ride the beat or ride in a hearse | |
Now Punch is my mentor, Top Dawg is the coach | |
Jay Rock is my older brother, I was there when he wrote | |
His name on his record deal, we had figured the coast | |
Would live on a pedestal, once the shit hit the store | |
Find ourselves scrambling, tryna figure it out | |
Soul told me that the record shop ’bout to go in a drought | |
Q ain’t got a place to stay, and ’bout to sleep on the couch | |
We eating off each other tray, the dollar menu amount | |
Meanwhile the coast going hard at each other | |
The younger rappers had wanted some of the OGs’ comfort | |
But I ain’t need it | |
I never screamed out the ‘New West’, I didn’t believe it | |
They brought each other down, I was planning out my achievements | |
I need to separate myself to stand out | |
I need a better way to take your fans now | |
I need to kill you motherfuckers dead | |
Three hollow tips aimed at your head | |
I’ll be damned if the chopper jam now | |
And we never asked for no hand out | |
In the midst of it all I recall a called when you said how | |
We could never resolve in The Hall of Fame | |
And I’m with the trial with a Bible and a rifle | |
I play the game as I plan blow | |
Hollaback at me, nigga | |
And if they said I’m the one, why you asking me, nigga? | |
Cause When the whole world see you as Pac reincarnated | |
That’s enough pressure to make you just open the Book of David | |
And pray to God hat make it or live your life in the matrix | |
Cause falling off is a sickness, I heard that it’s quite contagious | |
I need to separate myself to stand out | |
I need a better way to take your fans now | |
I need to kill you motherfuckers dead | |
Three hollow tips aimed at your head | |
[Verse 2: Ab-Soul] | |
I’ll be damned if the chopper jam now | |
And we never asked for no hand out | |
I’ll take you back to that pack of Black & Milds in my hand now | |
In the midst of it all was cooking with pots and pans out | |
Looking forward as four of us are forced to form a new clan now | |
Fast forward as I wait in line for this passport | |
The homies was still poor, was working at Jansport | |
[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar] | |
Whoever thought that Rosenberg would mention me to Dre? | |
Even Vanessa from XXL had told him to press play | |
And there goes my fate, now I’m on stage with Snoop | |
Gave me the torch and I ran with it in high pursuit | |
Rapped with my forefathers, even record with Gaga too | |
Lyricist of the year, fuck am I supposed to do? Rock | |
[Verse 4: Jay Rock] | |
Laughing at you niggas out there who thought we was flukes | |
Exaggerated shit that we had rapped had came true | |
Thought I was aggravated, when Warner had let me loose | |
I was honest, see they was haunted when Mike Jones didn’t recoup | |
[Verse 5: Kendrick Lamar] | |
Cool, cause niggas won’t outdo us in the booth | |
Even when my album leak, fans still buy it for proof | |
I came, I saw, I conquered | |
No shame, I blame all of this on Compton | |
Thinking about when Sherane tried to set me up | |
Cold game, full circle, they set up her | |
I put my life in these twelve songs, my fight in these twelve songs | |
The fight to ignite any wrong or right that I prolong | |
The story was short film, the glory of him and them | |
The worry of mother who don’t recover when baby killed | |
The trial and tribulations, the newer Miseducation | |
The view of body wasting, you knew somebody who didn’t make it | |
The angry, the adolescent, the reason I ask this question | |
Will you let Hip-Hop die on October 22nd? | |
Will you let Hip-Hop die on October 22nd? |
