United In Grief lyrics - kendrick lamar

 I hope you find some peace of mind in this lifetime

(Tell them, tell 'em, tell them the truth)

I hope you find some paradise

(Tell 'em, tell 'em the truth)

(Tell 'em, tell 'em, tell 'em, tell 'em your—)

I've been goin' through somethin'

One-thousand eight-hundred and fifty-five days

I've been goin' through somethin'

Be afraid


What is a bitch in a miniskirt?

A man in his feelings with bitter nerve

What is a woman that really hurt?

A demon, you're better off killing her

What is a relative making repetitive narratives

On how you did it first?

That is a predator, hit reverse

All of your presidents' evil thirst

What is a neighborhood rep'table?

That is a snitch on a pedestal

What is a house with a better view?

A family broken in variables

What is a rapper with jewelry?

A way that I show my maturity

What if I call on security?

That mean I'm calling on God for purity

I went and got me a therapist

I can debate on my theories and sharing it (Woah)

Consolidate all my comparisons

Humblin' up because time was imperative (Woah)

Started to feel like it's only one answer

To everything, I don't know where it is (Woah)

Popping a bottle of Claritin (Woah)

Is it my head or my arrogance? (Woah)

Shaking and moving, like, what am I doing?

I'm flipping my time through the Rolodex

Indulging myself and my life and my music

The world that I'm in is a cul-de-sac

The world that we in is just menacing

The demons portrayed as religionous

I wake in the morning, another appointment

I hope the psychologist listenin'


The new Mercedes with black G-Wagon

The "Where you from?", it was all for rap

I was 28 years young, twenty mill' in tax

Bought a couple of mansions, just for practice

Five hundred in jewelry, chain was magic

Never had it in public, late reaction

50K to cousins, post a caption

Pray none of my enemies hold me captive


I grieve different

I grieve different (Huh)


I met her on the third night of Chicago

North America tour, my enclave

Fee-fi-fo-fum, she was a model

Dedicated to the songs I wrote and the Bible

Eyes like green penetratin' the moonlight

Hair done in a bun, energy in the room like

Big Bang for theory, God, hopin' you hear me

Phone off the ringer, tell the world, "I'm busy"

Fair enough, green eyes said her mother didn't care enough

Sympathize when her daddy in the chain gang

Her first brother got killed, he was twenty-one

I was nine when they put Lamont in the grave

Heartbroken when Estelle didn't say goodbye

Chad left his body after we FaceTimed

Green eyes said you'd be okay, first tour, sex the pain away


I grieve different

I grieve different (Huh)


The new Mercedes with black G-Wagon

The "Where you from?", it was all for rap

I was 28 years young, twenty mill' in tax

Bought a couple of mansions, just for practice

Five hundred in jewelry, chain was magic

Never had it in public, late reaction

50K to cousins, post a caption

Pray none of my enemies hold me captive


So what, paralyzed, the county building controlled us

I bought a Rolex watch, I only wore it once

I bought infinity pools I never swimmed in

I watched Keem buy four cars in four months

You know the family dynamics on repeat

The insecurities locked down on PC

I bought a .223, nobody peace treat

You won't doo-doo me, I smell TNT

Dave got him a Porsche, so I got me a Porsche

Paid lottery for it, I ain't want it in portions

Poverty was the case

But the money wipin' the tears away


I grieve different

(Everybody grieves different)

(Everybody grieves different)

I grieve different (Huh)

N95 lyrics - kendrick lamar

 Hello, new world, all the boys and girls

I got some true stories to tell

You're back outside, but they still lied

Woah-oh-oh-oh (Yeah)


Take off the foo-foo, take off the clout chase, take off the Wi-Fi

Take off the money phone, take off the car loan, take off the flex and the white lies

Take off the weird-ass jewelry, I'ma take ten steps, then I'm taking off top five

Take off them fabricated streams and them microwave memes, it's a real world outside (Take that shit off)

Take off your idols, take off the runway, I take off to Cairo (Take that shit off)

Take off to Saint-Tropez, five-day stay, take a quarter mill', hell, if I know (Take that shit off)

Take off the front flag, take off perception, take off the cop with the eye patch (Take that shit off)

Take off the unloyal, take off the unsure, take off decisions I lack (Take it off)

Take off the fake deep, take off the fake woke, take off the, "I'm broke, I care" (Take it off)

Take off the gossip, take off the new logic that if I'm rich, I'm rare (Take it off)

Take off the Chanel, take off the Dolce, take off the Birkin bag

(Take it off)

Take all that designer bullshit off, and what do you have?


Bitch, huh, huh, ugh

You ugly as fuck (You outta pocket)

Huh, two ATMs (Hah, hah, hah, hah)

You steppin' or what? (You outta pocket, huh)

Who you think they talk about?

Talk about us (You outta pocket—shoot, shoot, shoot)

Who you think they copy off? (Brrt, brrt, brrt, brrt)

Copy off us (Get back in pocket)


The world in a panic, the women is stranded, the men on a run

The prophets abandoned, the law take advantage, the market is crashin', the industry wants

Niggas and bitches to sleep in a box while they makin' a mockery followin' us

This ain't Monopoly, watchin' for love, this ain't monogamy, y'all gettin' fucked

Jumpin' on what the hell is that? I gotta relax when I feel (Huh, facts)

All my descendants, they come in my sleep and say I am too real (Huh, facts)

I'm done with the sensitive, takin' it personal, done with the black and the white, the wrong and the right

You hopin' for change and clericals, I know the feelings that came with burial's cries


Bitch, huh, huh, ugh

You ugly as fuck (You outta pocket)

Huh, two ATMs (Hah, hah, hah, hah)

You steppin' or what? (You outta pocket, huh)

Who you think they talk about?

Talk about us (You outta pocket—shoot, shoot, shoot)

Who you think they copy off? (Brrt, brrt, brrt, brrt)

Copy off us


Servin' up a look, dancin' in a drought

Hello to the big stepper, never losin' count

Ventin' in the safe house

Ventin' in the sa—


Can I vent all my truth? I got nothin' to lose, I got problems and pools, I can swim on my faith

Cameras movin' whenever I'm movin', the family suin' whatever I make

Murder is stackin', the president actin', the government taxin' my funds in the bank

Homies attracting the feds when I'm bracking, look at my reaction, my pupils on skates (Hold up, hold up)

Let's think about this for a second (Let's go)

Tell me what you would do for aesthetic (Let's go)

Would you sell your soul on credit? (Let's go)

Would you sell your bro for leverage? (Let's go)

Where the hypocrites at?

What community feel they the only ones relevant? (Let's go)

Where the hypocrites at?

What community feel they the only ones relevant? (Let's go)


Huh, huh, ugh

You outta pocket, yeah, you outta pocket (This shit hard)

You entertain the mediocre, need to stop it (This shit hard)

You entertainin' old friends when they toxic (This shit hard)

What your life like? Bullshit and gossip (This shit hard)

What the fuck is cancel culture, dawg?

Say what I want about you niggas, I'm like Oprah, dawg

I treat you crackers like I'm Jigga, watch, I own it all

Oh, you worried 'bout a critic? That ain't protocol (Bitch)


Worldwide Steppers lyrics - kendrick lamar

 Kodak Black, Oklama

Eckhart Tolle

And this here is the big stepper


I'm a killer, he's a killer, she's a killer, bitch

We some killers, walkin' zombies, tryna scratch that itch

Germophobic, hetero and—


I am not for the faint of heart

My genetic build can build multi-universes, the man of God

Playin' "Baby Shark" with my daughter

Watchin' for sharks outside at the same time

Life as a protective father, I'd kill for her

My son Enoch is the part two

When I expire, my children'll make higher valleys

In this present moment, I saw that through

Ask Whitney about my lust addiction

Text messagin' bitches got my thumbs hurt

Set precedent for a new sacrilegion

Writer's block for two years, nothin' moved me

Asked God to speak through me, that's what you hearin' now

The voice of yours truly

Teleport out my own body for comfort

I don't pass judgment, past life regressions keep me in question

Where did I come from? I don't think like I used to

No, I don't blink like I used to

Awkward stares at everybody, see the flesh of man

But still, this man compared to nobody

Yesterday, I prayed to the flowers and trees

Gratification to the powers that be

Synchronization with my energy chakras, the ghost of Dr. Sebi

Paid it forward, cleaned out my toxins, bacteria heavy

Sciatica nerve pinch, I don't know how to feel

Like the first time I fucked a white bitch


The first time I fucked a white bitch

I was sixteen at the Palisades

Fumblin' my grades, I traveled with the team

The Apache life, Centennial was like

When Mrs. Baker screamed at Doughboy

Mixed that with Purple Rain

They interchanged the scenes

Happy just to be out the hood

With all the wealthy kids

Credit cards and family plans

She drove her daddy's Benz

I found out that he was a sheriff

That was a win-win

Because he had locked up Uncle Perry

She paid her daddy's sins

Next time I fucked a white bitch

Was out in Copenhagen

Good kid, m.A.A.d city tour

I flourished on them stages

Whitney asked did I have a problem

I said, "I might be racist"

Ancestors watchin' me fuck was like retaliation


I'm a killer, he's a killer, she's a killer, bitch

We some killers, walkin' zombies, tryna scratch that itch

Germophobic, hetero and homophobic

Photoshoppin' lies and motives

Hide your eyes, then pose for the pic


What the—


Eight billion people on Earth, silent murderers

Non-profits, preachers and church, crooks and burglars (Woo)

Hollywood corporate in school, teachin' philosophies

You either gon' be dead or in jail, killer psychology

Silent murderer, what's your body count? Who your sponsorship?

Objectified so many bitches, I killed their confidence (What the—)

The media's the new religion, you killed the consciousness

(What the fuck?)

Your jealousy is way too pretentious, you killed accomplishments (What the fuck?)

Niggas killed freedom of speech, everyone sensitive (What the fuck?)

If your opinion fuck 'round and leak, might as well send your will (What the—)

The industry has killed the creators, I'll be the first to say (What the fuck?)

To each exec', "I'm saving your children"—We can't negotiate (What the—)

I caught a couple of bodies myself, slid my community

My last Christmas toy drive in Compton handed out eulogies

Not because the rags in the park had red gradient

But because the high blood pressure flooded the caterin'

So what's the difference 'tween your life when hiding motives?

More fatalities and reality bring you closure

The noble person that goes to work and pray like they 'posed to?

Slaughter people too, your murder's just a bit slower



I'm a killer, he's a killer, she's a killer, bitch

(What the fuck?)

We some killers, walkin' zombies, tryna scratch that itch

(What the—)

Germophobic, hetero and homophobic

Photoshoppin' lies and motives

Hide your eyes, then pose for the pic'

Die Hard lyrics - Kendrick Lamar, Blxst & Amanda Reifer

 [Kendrick Lamar:]

I pop the pain away, I slide the pain away

I pop the pain away, I slide the pain away

[Kadhja Bonet:]

I picked you up when you fell and cut your knee

I told you not to cry and held you close to me


[Blxst:]

I hope I'm not too late to set my demons straight

I know I made you wait, but how much can you take?

I hope you see the God in me, I hope you can see

And if it's up, stay down for me, yeah


[Amanda Reifer:]

Shimmy, shimmy, cocoa puff

Serafina, flame in us

Where I'd be without your love

Rest your wings and trust, I feel you

Deep (I know you feel), deep (Know you feel)

Deep (I know you feel), deep (Too deep)

Deep (I know you feel), deep (Know you feel)

Deep (I know you feel), deep


[Kendrick Lamar:]

Do you love me? (Okay) Do you trust me? (Okay)

Can I trust you? (Okay) Don't judge me (Okay)

I'ma die hard, it gets ugly (Okay)

Too passionate, it gets ugly (Okay)

Mmm, ah-ah

I wonder where I lost my way

Mmm, ah-ah

Been waiting on your call all day

Tell me you in my corner right now

When I fall short, I'm leaning on you to cry out

We all got enough to lie about

My truth too complicated to hide now

Can I open up? Is it safe or not?

I'm afraid a little, you relate or not?

Have faith a little, I might take my time

Ain't no saving face this time


[Blxst:]

I hope I'm not too late to set my demons straight

I know I made you wait, but how much can you take?

I hope you see the God in me, I hope you can see

And if it's up, stay down for me, yeah


[Amanda Reifer:]

Shimmy, shimmy, cocoa puff

Serafina, flame in us

Where I'd be without your love

Rest your wings and trust, I feel you

Deep (I know you feel), deep (Know you feel)

Deep (I know you feel), deep (Too deep)

Deep (I know you feel), deep (Know you feel)

Deep (I know you feel), deep


[Kendrick Lamar:]

I got some regrets (I-I-I, yeah, yeah)

But my past won't keep me from my best (I-I-I, yeah, yeah)

Subtle mistakes felt like life or death (I-I-I, yeah, yeah)

I wanna see the family stronger

I wanna see the money longer

You know that I'd die for you (I'd die for you)

I get emotional about life

The lost ones keepin' me up at night

The world be reminding me it's danger

I'll still risk it all for a stranger

If I told you who I am, would you use it against me?

Right or wrong, no stone, just love to send me


[Blxst:]

I hope I'm not too late to set my demons straight

I know I made you wait, but how much can you take?

I hope you see the God in me, I hope you can see

And if it's up, stay down for me, yeah


Baby, you make me pray for London

Yeah, 'cause if I won it all without you involved (Fucking love you)

I guess it's all for nothing

Father Time lyrics - Kendrick Lamar & Sampha

 You really need some therapy

Real nigga need no therapy, fuck you talkin' about?

Nah, nah, you sound stupid as fuck

Shit, everybody stupid

Yeah, well, you need to talk to somebody

Reach out to Eckhart


I come from a generation of home invasions and I got daddy issues, that's on me

Everything them four walls had taught me, made habits bury deep

That man knew a lot, but not enough to keep me past them streets

My life is a plot, twisted from directions that I can't see

Daddy issues ball across my head, told me, "Fuck a foul"

I'm teary-eyed, wanna throw my hands, I won't think out loud

A foolish pride, if I lose again, won't go in the house

I stayed outside, laughin' with my friends, they don't know my life

Daddy issues made me learn losses, I don't take those well

Momma said, "That boy is exhausted," he said, "Go fuck yourself

If he give up now, that's gon' cost him, life's a bitch

You could be a bitch or step out the margin," I got up quick

I'm chargin' baskets and falling backwards, tryna keep balance

Oh, this the part where mental stability meets talent

Oh, this the part, he breaks my humility just for practice

Tactics we learned together, sore losers forever, daddy issues


Early mornin' wake-ups (Ah), practicin' on day-offs (Ah)

Tough love (Ah), bottled up, no chaser (Ah)

Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chaser (Ah)

Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chase

Early mornin' wake-ups (Ah), practicin' on day-offs (Ah, day-offs)

Tough love (Ah), bottled up, no chaser (Ah)

Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chaser (Ah)

Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chaser


I got daddy issues, that's on me

Lookin' for, "I love you", rarely empathizin' for my relief

A child that grew accustomed, jumping up when I scraped my knee

'Cause if I cried about it, he'd surely tell me not to be weak

Daddy issues, hid my emotions, never expressed myself

Men should never show feelings, being sensitive never helped

His momma died, I asked him why he goin' back to work so soon?

His first reply was, "Son, that's life, the bills got no silver spoon"

Daddy issues, fuck everybody, go get your money, son

Protect yourself, trust nobody, only your momma'n'em

This made relationships seem cloudy, never attached to none

So if you took some likings around me, I might reject the love

Daddy issues kept me competitive, that's a fact, nigga

I don't give a fuck what's the narrative, I am that nigga

When Kanye got back with Drake, I was slightly confused

Guess I'm not mature as I think, got some healin' to do

Egotistic, zero-given fucks and to be specific (Ah)

Need assistance with the way I was brought up (Ah, ah)

What's the difference when your heart is made of stone

And your mind is made of gold

And your tongue is made of sword, but it may weaken your soul?

My niggas ain't got no daddy, grow up overcompensatin'

Learn shit 'bout bein' a man and disguise it as bein' gangsta

I love my father for tellin' me to take off the gloves

'Cause everything he didn't want was everything I was

And to my partners that figured it out without a father

I salute you, may your blessings be neutral to your toddlers

It's crucial, they can't stop us if we see the mistakes

'Til then, let's give the women a break, grown men with daddy issues


Early mornin' wake-ups (Ah), practicin' on day-offs (Ah, day-offs)

Tough love (Ah), bottled up, no chaser (Ah)

Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chaser (Ah)

Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chaser

Rich (Interlude) lyrics - kendrick lamar

 I learned in trappin', in the business

Smart people makin' horrible decisions, you know?

Rich nigga, gettin' my dick sucked after the show

I ain't gon' lie, we were poor

A bunch of lost souls in survival mode

It wasn't no way for us unless we found our own

Runnin' in stores, kickin' in doors, nigga, give me my glory

Nigga play with me, he ain't gon' live to tell the story

You know, this the type of shit we glorify, everybody gang-gang

Most of the people that you grew up with are now in the chain gang

In the box, gettin' pink

Niggas shittin' where you sleep

Niggas shittin' where you eat

Who'da ever knew that I'd become a fuckin' Kodak? Yeah

Rap money good, but I'm still pumpin' gas through the hood

Droppin' off plates to the fam' like Thanksgivin'

Got the baby snipers standin' on that murk business, yeah, slidin' for Yak

They ready for whatever

I always knew that everything would get better

And it sho' got greater later

All the game came from the elders like hand-me-downs

Me and my brothers wearin' hand-me-downs

Now I'm givin' game back to the old heads

And the respect come first, yeah, you know?

Can't be better than the OGs, you gotta get it somewhere

Gotta come from somethin', God don't come from nothin'

We ain't seen this comin', nigga, it's more than a blessin'

What you doing with Kendrick? (Ooh, ooh)

What you doing with a legend? (Ooh, ooh)

So what they call you? (Ooh, ooh)

When it's all said and done, we ain't leavin' empty-handed (Ooh, ooh)

That's on gang (Ooh, ooh)

That's on Ma' Dukes (Ooh, ooh)

Poorer than that bitch but she fall through (Ooh, ooh)

Makin' ends meet (Ooh, ooh), daddy deadbeat (Ooh, ooh)

Had to steal for a meal or you can't eat, you know? (Ooh, ooh)

Poverty (Ooh, ooh)

Red Cross, food banks, W.I.C. (Ooh, ooh)

Now look at this shit, we own property

Rich Spirit lyrics - kendrick lamar

 Takin' my baby to school, then I pray for her

'Cause you bitches ain't never been cool, writin' testament

Paintin' pictures, put me in the Louvre, that's a definite

Universal shift, I'm in a groove

And celebrity do not mean integrity, you fool

I'm a good man, shake your hand, firm grip rule

Seventy-two wins, lost ten, ballin' with the flu

More than two M's for a show, but add another two

Hmm, lil' Man-Man, the big mans

The GT Dyno flippin' the kickstand, ooh


Rich nigga, broke phone (Ah)

Tryna keep the balance, I'm stayin' strong (Ooh)

Stop playin' with me 'fore I turn you to a song (Yeah)

Stop playin' with me 'fore I turn you to a song (Ooh)

Ayy, bitch, I'm attractive (Ah)

Can't fuck with you no more, I'm fastin', ugh (Ooh)

Bitch, I'm attractive (Ah, ah, ah, ah)

Can't fuck with you no more, I'm fastin', ugh


The morality can wait, feedback on low latency, I'm glitching from the face

As my thoughts grow sacredly, I'm runnin' out of space

Ask Whitney, she okay, never mind a hundred K

Why you lyin' on Benjamin? He turnin' in his grave

I'd be lyin' if I said I wouldn't give this shit away

The aloof Buddha, I'm Christ with a shooter

Praise to Muhammad, I might nigga noose ya

AP, Michael Friedman, my friends cooler

Primary, so the resale value stupid

I would never live my life on a computer

IG'll get you life for a chikabooya

More power to ya, love 'em from a distance

Why you always in the mirror more than the bitches?

And my cousin tried to sue me like he got the privilege

But I didn't lose sleep 'cause I got the spirit, ayy (Ooh)


Rich nigga, broke phone (Ah)

Tryna keep the balance, I'm stayin' strong (Ooh)

Stop playin' with me 'fore I turn you to a song (Yeah)

Stop playin' with me 'fore I turn you to a song (Ooh)

Ayy, bitch, I'm attractive (Ah)

Can't fuck with you no more, I'm fastin', ugh (Ooh)

Bitch, I'm attractive (Ah, ah, ah, ah)

Can't fuck with you no more, I'm fastin', ugh


Dun-duh, dun-duh, dun-duh, duh, dum

Dun-duh-duh, duh, duh

Dun-duh, dun-duh, dun-duh, dun-duh, dun


Frat brother, real nigga, that brother

We just upped the score, give me dap, brother

Spirit medium, I don't rap, brother

We headed there now, are you strapped brother?

Ayy, peacemaker, but I'm not naive, brother

Ayy, gotta watch your homies and police, brother

Ayy, clout chasing hell of a disease, brother

I'm fasting four days out the week, brother

I pray to God that you realize the entourage is dead

I pray to God that you not lackin' when you off the meds

I pray to God she know them Cabo trips don't last forever

Bet she argue with her momma, go and get them kids

I pray to God you actually pray when somebody dies

Thoughts and prayers, way better off timelines

False claimin' not cute, I'm mortified

The new Earth in hot pursuit, two-hundred lives


Rich nigga, broke phone (Ah)

Tryna keep the balance, I'm stayin' strong (Ooh)

Stop playin' with me 'fore I turn you to a song (Yeah)

Stop playin' with me 'fore I turn you to a song (Ooh)

Ayy, bitch, I'm attractive (Ah)

Can't fuck with you no more, I'm fastin', ugh (Ooh)

Bitch, I'm attractive (Ah, ah, ah, ah)

Can't fuck with you no more, I'm fastin', ugh


Dun-duh, dun-duh, dun-duh, duh, dum

Dun-duh-duh, duh, duh

Dun-duh, dun-duh, dun-duh, dun-duh, dun

We Cry Together lyrics - Kendrick Lamar & Taylour Paige

 Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Hold on to each other

Hold on to each other

This is what the world sounds like


Nah, fuck you, nigga (Fuck you, bitch)

Oh, wow, okay

You got me fucked up

Fuck you, fuck you


I swear, I'm tired of these emotional-ass, ungrateful-ass bitches (Shut the fuck up)

Unstable-ass, confrontational-ass dumb bitches

You wanna bring a nigga down, even when I'm tryna do right

We could go our separate ways right now, you could move on with your life (I swear to God)

Fuck you nigga, you love a pity party, I won't show up

Always act like your shit don't stink, motherfucker, grow up (Man, fuck you)

Forever late for shit, won't buy shit, sit around and deny shit (Man)

Fuck around on a side bitch, then come fuckin' up my shit

What? Fuckin' up yo' shit? You must be bleedin' and some more shit

Bitch, I don't know shit, fuck yo' feelings, you on some ho shit

See, I don't know why you like playin' mind games with me (Mind games, man)

Bitch, I ain't slow nor ditsy, I know when you bein' distant (Come on, dawg)

I know when you fake busy get out yo' feelings and miss me with that reverse psychology

Man, bitch, you trippin', who got you that Rollie chain?

And who put that car in my name?

What you think? I'ma kiss yo' ass?

Nah, nigga, you fuckin' lame


You know what? Fuck you, bitch (Fuck you, nigga)

Nah, fuck you, bitch (Nah, fuck you, nigga)

Fuck you, bitch (Nah, fuck you, nigga)

Nah, fuck you, bitch (Fuck you, nigga)

Fuck you, bitch (Fuck you, nigga)

Fuck you (Fuck you), fuck you (Fuck you)

Fuck you (Fuck you)

Fuck you, nigga

Fuck you, bitch (Nah, fuck you)


Wastin' my time and energy tryna be good to you

Lost friends, family, gained more enemies 'cause of you

Bitches starin' at me in Zara, hoes scratchin' my cars up

Shoulda followed my mind in '09 and just moved to Georgia

Oh, what, that's my fault now? Bitch, you power trippin' or guilt trippin'? (Okay)

I held your ass down

You just kept me down, that's a big difference

Stressin' myself tryna figure why I'm not good enough

Goin' to church, prayin' for you, searchin' for good in us

Lil' dick-ass nigga that's tryna go big

But you was suckin' this dick though

Well, shit, I shoulda sucked his

What you say?

I shoulda found a bigger dick, bitch, get the fuck out my face

Oh, what, you mad?

Shut up, bitch, you got me fucked up today, on God

Ah-ha, you mad, lil' feelings is shot

Go text that raggedy bitch and tell her you all that she got

Man, what bitch?

Let her know you packin' yo' shit and gotta move by the first

Man, give me these fuckin' keys

Give me my keys, I'ma be late for work

Fuck yo' job, today gon' be the day you walk to that bitch

Give me my fuckin' keys

Nah, I like you parked in that bitch

Give me my keys, bro

On God, you ain't gettin' these keys

Give me my fucking keys

Ah, now you mad at me, I got you hollerin' for nothin'

I do the same when we fuckin'

Act like that pussy ain't loose

I'd rather act like I'm cummin'

I'd rather fuck off the juice

I'd rather fuck on your cousin

Bitch, you said you gon' fuck who?

You heard me, nigga, it's nothing (Alright)


You know what? Fuck you, bitch (Fuck you, nigga)

Fuck you, bitch (Nah, fuck you nigga)

No, fuck you, bitch (Nah, fuck you, nigga)

Fuck you, bitch (Fuck you, I'm sick of this nigga)

Fuck you (Fuck you), fuck you (Fuck you), fuck you

Fuck you, bi— (Fuck you)

Fuck you, bitch, stupid-ass bitch


I don't even know why I fuck with you

I'll be damned if I stuck with you

Changed my number, I'm duckin' you, bitch

Bitch, whatever is comfortable

Shit, this the type of shit couples do?

Shoulda thought about cuffin' you, bitch

Nigga, you dirty and you broke

Ho, you goofy and gullible, fuck you talkin' 'bout?

Mm, the insecurities you got, won't mind-fuck me

Womanizer, got no affection from yo' mama, I see

Don't speak on my mama, the fuck is yo' problem?

That bitch don't like me anyways

Bitch, she gave you the Honda, fuck

And used that shit to throw it in my face (Man, hol' on, bro)

Find it funny you just can't apologize (This bitch, dawg)

Egotistic, narcissistic, love your own lies (Bro)

See, you the reason why strong women fucked up

Why they say it's a man's world, see, you the reason for Trump

(You crying, bro?)

You the reason, we overlooked, underpaid, under-booked, under shame

If you look, I don't speak, then I'm called on my name (Hah...)

I am flawed, I am pained, never yours, I remained (Come on, bro)

You the reason bitches start fuckin' with bitches when they change

You the reason bitches start callin' y'all bitches 'cause y'all useless

You the reason Harvey Weinstein had to see his conclusion

You the reason R. Kelly can't recognize that he's abusive

Man, shut the fuck up, we all know you still playin' his music

Said I'm tired of these emotional-ass, ungrateful-ass bitches

Fake innocent, fake feminist, stop pretendin'

Y'all sentiments ain't realer than what you defendin'

(Here he go, shut the fuck up)

It's a split decision, broads like you and real victims (Look at you, look at you)

Let's talk the truth (Okay), women in general just can't get along (Explain, nigga)

Hmm, when Tash got a man, you didn't pick up the phone (Explain, nigga)

Uh-uh, when Nate got a job, you said you stayin' home (Explain)

Oh, why R&B bitches don't feature on each other songs then?

What the fuck is you talkin' 'bout?

Never mind, bitch, I'm walkin' out

Whatever, nigga, I'm off you now

Yo' evil ass kept me well in doubt

Pussy nigga, best watch your mouth

Pussy and mouth is all you got

Lay this pussy back on the couch

Doggie style, then you get on top


Fuck me, nigga (I'ma fuck you, bitch)

Nah, fuck me, nigga, fuck me (I'ma fuck you, bitch)

Nah, fuck you, fuck me (You playin' man)

Fuck me

Nah, you playin'


Stop tap-dancing around the conversation


Purple Hearts lyrics - Kendrick Lamar, Summer Walker & Ghostface Killah

 Mmm, tippy-toeing and I'm mud-walkin', hmm

Rollin' sevens, I ain't ready for no coffin

I know y'all love it when the drugs talkin', but

Shut the fuck up when you hear love talkin'

Shut the fuck up when you hear love talkin'

If God be the source then I am the plug talkin'

Yeah, baby, yeah, baby

Yeah, baby, yeah, baby


This my undisputed truth, uh-huh

My life is like forbidden fruit, my bitch know better than I do

A woman's worth, I barely went to church, I'd rather fast with you

Than fuck it up, fucking with skirts 'cause I'm rational

A nigga still gon' be a nigga, emoji heart, my family pictures

Two-steppin' away from rappers, I don't trust their true intentions

I'm not in the music business, I been in the human business

Whole life been social distant, hoes like, "When you not trippin'?"

I duck the party, who said they saw me?

Crown on Bob Marley, wrist on Yo Gotti

They gon' judge your life for a couple likes on the double tap

Them hoes is sorry, they all get bodied

I bless it that you have an open heart, I bless that you forgive

I bless it that you can learn from a loss, I bless it that you heal

I bless one day that you attract somebody with your mind exact

A patient life, flaws, bless 'em twice, and they'll bless you back


Tippy-toeing and I'm mud-walkin', hmm

Rollin' sevens, I ain't ready for no coffin

I know y'all love it when the drugs talkin', but

Shut the fuck up when you hear love talkin'

Shut the fuck up when you hear love talkin'

If God be the source, then I am the plug talkin'

Yeah, baby, yeah, baby

Yeah, baby, yeah


(How's love) How's love when it's heart to your soul?

But my nigga left, his ass on the road

Gossiping 'bout some shit you don't know

Oh, you ho (Yeah, yeah, yeah, fasho)

I hate it here, baby daddy still on my phone

I hate it here, asking if I been on the pole

I hate it here, if you keep lurking on the low

If you a fan, just let me know

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)

Now if it's love, I deserve to get some head on a balcony sometimes, sometimes

And if I feel where your heart can be, you'll still be a part of me

I love mine, love mine (Love mine, love mine)

Summer in the storm, I cannot conform

(I cannot conform, I cannot conform)

I just might love you still, just think I love me more

It ain't love if you gon' judge me for my past

No, it ain't love if you ain't never eat my ass

It ain't love if you just only tie me down because you seen me in my bag

That's why I'm anti-everyone before this mask


Mmm, tippy-toeing and I'm mud-walkin', hmm

Rollin' sevens, I ain't ready for no coffin

I know y'all love it when the drugs talkin', but

Shut the fuck up when you hear love talkin'

Shut the fuck up when you hear love talkin'

If God be the source, then I am the plug talkin'

Yeah, baby, yeah, baby

Yeah, baby, yeah


Yo, yo

Telekinesis, I'm purifying these D speeches

While I'm crying, I clean the feet of the sweet Jesus

Dreams, visions get blurry of the Elohim, it's light

It's known to tear retinas in a single gleam

Shut the fuck up when you hear His love talkin'

To the mind, it's God's cypher divine in a small portion, uh

Faded pictures, this global madness, the intervention

This world's in The Twilight Zone, this is the fifth dimension

God, please blow the whistle, we need an intermission

My good deeds in front of your door, I'm standing by the entrance

With heavy baggage, my brother's ashes

I seen tragic, I did dirt, smacked death and held it to that nigga cabbage

Love, we killin' greed, we killin' homelessness

And I don't give a fuck about this land, I want ownership

Bow your head for just God's sake

Listen what the stars say when I say it's God's way


Tippy-toeing and I'm mud-walkin', hmm

Rollin' sevens, I ain't ready for no coffin

I know y'all love it when the drugs talkin', but

Shut the fuck up when you hear love talkin'

Shut the fuck up when you hear love talkin'

If God be the source, then I am the plug talkin'

Yeah, baby, yeah, baby

Yeah, baby, yeah, baby

Count Me Out lyrics - kendrick lamar

 We may not know which way to go on this dark road

(Mr. Duckworth)

All of these hoes make it difficult

Session 10, breakthrough


One of these lives, I'ma make things right

With the wrongs I've done, that's when I unite

With the Father, Son, 'til then, I fight

Rain on me, put the blame on me

Got guilt, got hurt, got shame on me

Got six magazines that's aimed at me

Done every magazine, what's fame to me?

(And I'm tripping and falling)

It's a game to me, where the bedroom at?

Sleep, I ain't never had affairs with that

What's fair when the hearts and the words don't reach?

What's fair when the money don't take things back?

It's rare when somebody take your dreams back

(And I'm tripping and falling)

I care too much, wanna share too much, in my head too much

I shut down too, I ain't there too much

I'm a complex soul, they layered me up

Then broke me down, and morality's dust, I lack in trust

(And I'm tripping and falling)

This time around, I trust myself

Please everybody else but myself

All else fails, I was myself

Outdone fear, outdone myself

This year, you better one yourself

(And I'm tripping and falling)

Masks on the babies, mask on an opp

Wear masks in the neighborhood stores you shop

But a mask won't hide who you are inside

Look around, the reality's carved in lies

Wipe my ego, dodge my pride

(And I'm tripping and falling)

Look myself in the mirror

Amityville, ain't seen nothin' scarier

I fought like a pitbull terrier

Blood I shed could fill up aquariums

Tell all my angels, "Carry 'em"

(And I'm tripping and falling)

Every emotion been deprived

Even my strong points couldn't survive

If I didn't learn to love myself, forgive myself a hundred times, dawg


I love when you count me out (Huh)

I love when you count me out

I love when you count me out

(Wah, woo, wah, woo, wah)

I love when you count me out

Fuck it up, fuck it up, fuck it up, fuck it up, fuckin' it up

How you gon' win my trust when the lies run deep? (Wah, woo, wah)

How you gon' bend your love when the bad don't sleep? (Sheesh)

Beep, beep, crash our feelings in the middle of the street (Vroom, vroom)


Fuck it up, fuck it up, fuck it up, fuck it up, fuckin' it up (Huh, huh)


When you was at your lowest, tell me where the hoes was at?

When you was at your lowest, tell me where the bros was at?

Three-thirty in the mornin', scroll through the call log (Huh, huh, huh, huh)

Ain't nobody but the mirror lookin' for the fall off (Brrrt)


I love when you count me out

I love when you count me out

I love when you count me out

I love when you count me out

(Wah, woo, wah, woo, wah)

My name is in your mouth, shoo, shoo

It's gon' take more than pride to stop me

Call 9-1-1, I caught a body

Sun up now, and yesterday is fadin'

Healing's only 'bout a mile away

Let me tell you 'bout the woman I know (That's my baby)

I know karma like to follow us strong (Sheesh)

I know millionaires that feel alone (Sheesh)

Anytime I couldn't find God, I still could find myself through a song

Many find they life in a phone


Fuck it up, fuck it up, fuck it up, fuck it up, fuckin' it up


You said I'd feel better if I just worked hard without liftin' my head up

That left me fed up

You made me worry

I wanted my best version, but you ignored me

Then changed the story, then changed the story

Good energy in the room, drop the location, please

Antibiotic for the womb when I'm frustrated, please

(Antibiotic for the womb when I'm frustrated)

Tryna keep my good conscience in rotation

Thoughts in my head, they livin' there with no— (Tryna keep my good)

I made a decision, never give you my feelings

Fuck with you from, fuck with you from a distance

Some put it on the Devil when they fall short

I put it on my ego, lord of all lords

Sometimes I fall for her, dawg


I love when you count me out

I love when you count me out (Sheesh)

I love when you count me out (Sheesh)

I love when you count me out (Wah, woo, wah, woo, wah)

My name is in your mouth


Fuck it up, fuck it up, fuck it up, fuck it up, fuckin' it up (True, true)


Miss Regrets, I believe that you done me wrong (Miss Regrets)

Miss Regrets, can you please exit out my home? (Miss Regrets)

Miss Regret, I think I'm better off alone (Miss Regrets)

(Miss Regret) Miss Regret, I got these deep regrets

(And I'm tripping and falling)

Some things I can't forget

Lord knows, I tried my best

You said it's not my best

I came up out my flesh

Something's up, must confess (Ah, ya)

(And I'm tripping and falling)

Spoke my truth, paid my debt (Ah, ya)

Can't you see I'm a wreck? (Ah, ya)

Let me loose, I digress (Ah, ya)

This is me, and I'm blessed (Ah, ya)

This is me, and I'm blessed (Ah, ya)

This is me, and I'm blessed (Ah, ya)

This is me, and I'm blessed (Ah, ya)

Anybody fightin' through the stress? (Ah, ya)

Anybody fightin' through the—?

Crown lyrics - kendrick lamar

 You walk around like everything is in control

Favor come with favors and you can't say no

Go out the way to make the coin available

That's what I call love

The closest ones afraid to say they need some time

The turnaround is life or death, but you don't mind

Go out the way to say you made the compromise

That's what I call love


But the time it'll come to not be there when somebody needs you

You say no and all you've done gives them amnesia

One thing I've learned, love can change with the seasons


And I can't please everybody

No, I can't please everybody

Wait, you can't please everybody

No, I can't please everybody

I can't please everybody


They idolize and praise your name across the nation

Tap the feet and nod the head for confirmation

Promise that you keep the music in rotation

That's what I call love (That's what I call love)


But the time it'll come (But the time it'll come)

To not be there when somebody needs you (When somebody needs you)

You say no and all you've done gives them amnesia (They don't remember)

One thing I've learned, love can change with the seasons


And I can't please everybody

No, I can't please everybody

Wait, you can't please everybody

No, I can't please everybody

And I can't please everybody

No, I can't please everybody

Wait, you can't please everybody

No, I can't please everybody


Heavy is the head that chose to wear the crown

To whom is given much is required now

Heavy is the head that chose to wear the crown

To whom is given much is required now


I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

Love gon' get you killed (Love gon' get you killed)

Uh, I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

Uh, I can't even please myself (I can't even please myself)

Uh, I thought a new car would help (I thought a new car would help)

Uh, but when that new car get old (But when that new car get old)

Uh, I'm sure to want something else, I-I-I


I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please everybody (I can't please everybody)

I can't please (Everybody), I can't please (Everybody)

I can't please (Everybody), I can't please (Everybody)

I can't please (Everybody), I can't please (Everybody)

I can't please (Everybody), I can't please (Everybody)

I can't please (Everybody), I can't please (Everybody)

Can't please

Silent Hill lyrics - Kendrick Lamar & Kodak Black

 [Kendrick Lamar:]

Hey, oh, yo

Why oh, why oh, why oh, why you keep fuckin' with me?

You gon' make me jump out my skin, believe me


Push these niggas off me like, "Huh"

Push these bitches off me like, "Huh"

Push these niggas off me like, "Huh"

Pushin' the snakes, I'm pushin' the fakes

I'm pushin' 'em all off me like, "Huh"

Pushin' 'em all off me like, "Huh" (Yeah)


Aha, I be immune to shit (Aha)

Tucking the broom and shit (Aha)

They want to assume and shit (Aha)

Know you a choke, my ancestor close

I howl at the moon and shit (Aha)

Know the results, the ballot is in, man, I'm 'bout to boom again (Aha)

You funny, dawg

Peek-a-boo, can't hide behind your money, dawg

A week or two, I meditate on runnin' lost

Swerve, swerve, swerve, shake the currents off, yeah


Push these niggas off me like, "Huh"

Push these bitches off me like, "Huh"

Push these niggas off me like, "Huh"

Pushin' the snakes, I'm pushin' the fakes

I'm pushin' 'em all off me like, "Huh"

Pushin' them all off me like, "Huh" (Yeah)


Head up, chest out

Silence, I'm stressed out

Shh, be quiet, I'm stressed out

Stressed out, stressed out, stressed—


Pick my daughter up, she need all the love

I need all the love, I mean all of us

It's like six o'clock, bitch, you talk too much

You makin' it awkward, love

I mean, it's hard enough, I mean, it's—


[Kodak Black:]

They don't fuck with me even if they could

Pull out the stick, hit a bitch with the wood

First to park Rolls Royce, 'vert in the hood

Don't worry about us, over here we good

The AP Roman numeral, everywhere I go, I need pharmaceuticals

I ran my whole conglomerate, I was just mappin' shit out in the cubicle

Suicide coupe was a funeral, Trackhawk launch like a slingshot

Big ol' ruby diamond on my pinky finger, that bitch look like a Ring Pop

Money on my mind, money on your head

Can't ride three times while you comin' through the 'jects

Red Cross kept a nigga fed

In the studio with K. Dot fresh out the feds

Yeah, you niggas can't stand the rain, you niggas don't stand a chance

Yeah, Chevrolet candy paint, I spin the bend in the Benz

I caught a bale off a Google app

I'm the type to get my shooter whacked

I had to survive off a tuna pack

Five percent tint on the whip like, "Who was that?"

Coupe take off like it's mad

Beat the dope with a fork, I'm whippin' up Sudafed, I'm doin' scams in the lab

Every Thursday, girl's day, spendin' time with my daughter, make me go harder

Every Sunday's son's day, teach my boy to be a man, I ain't had no father

Fell in the love with the block, I ain't have no pop, just a sawed-off shotgun, Mossberg

We stackin' that money up proper, awkward diamonds, look like marbles

Audemars water, aqua, beatin' the block up 'til we spot 'em

I don't want your ice, boy, I want your life, but fuck it, I still might rob 'em


[Kendrick Lamar:]

Yo

Push these niggas off me like, "Huh"

Push these bitches off me like, "Huh"

Push these niggas off me like, "Huh"

Pushin' the snakes, I'm pushin' the fakes

I'm pushin' 'em all off me like, "Huh"

Pushin' 'em all off me like, "Huh" (Yeah)


Head up, chest out

Silence, I'm stressed out

Shh, be quiet, I'm stressed out

Stressed out, stressed out, stressed out

Savior (Interlude) lyrics - kendrick lamar

 [Eckhart Tolle:]

If you derive your sense of identity from being a victim. Let's say, bad things were done to you when you were a child. And you develop a sense of self that is based on the bad things that happened to you.


[Baby Keem:]

You ever seen your mama strung out while you studied division?

Your uncle ever stole from you, day after Christmas?

Seen both of those in the county jail visits

The first and the fifteenth, the only religion

Noodles in the microwave, shark tank tidal wave

Grandma shootin' niggas, blood on the highway

Crosses on the dashboard, you just want a platform

I wanna take everything that I ask for

Catch me a body, I'll put that on anybody but my mama

She showin' a pattern for certain

I think it's white panties and minimal condoms

My uncle would tell me the shit in the movies could only be magic

This year, I did forty-three shows and took it all home to buy him a casket

Jack of all trades, got money out the way

Put my heart in the faith, I'm good, love

Cousin in the courts, heard he jumped off the porch

Turn a brick to a Porsche, I'm good, love

Catch us, you know I'm gon' rack up

I need the advance and the equity to match up

The engineer dead if the drive don't back up

These words come of God, you could never outrap us

Nowadays, gotta walk cautious, ayy

Nowadays, I'm a new prophet, ayy

Game dead, no autopsy, ayy

City girl with they new hobby, ayy

Catch a body, put the Prada in the ta-da

Nigga 'boutta get some pussy, give me five (Give me five)

Gun dirty, got the thirty in the purse, purse

Tight bitch, put a perky in her salad

I gotta pray for the basic

I never seen my niggas bust down faces

Them niggas not tasteless

I only had one chance, I ain't even waste it

Been down on my luck

Been down on my luck when I fa-a-all

I gotta get up

I gotta get back up and ba-a-a-all

R-I-P, under my people

I'm proud of my people, I'm proud of my dawgs

My ex got a beamer, she want me to see it

I still ain't gon' see it, like, okay

I love when they ratchet, I don't do her Patek

I still do the watches the old way

She think I'm conceited, I'm thinkin' 'bout cheatin'

I don't do the flowers or roleplay

Now, how can I fold lookin' at twenty million

This money don't come with a probate

Mama, I said it'd be okay


I got this shit brackin' in four days

Four eyes, four eyes, two eyes

Switch sides, nigga be fresh out

Suicide doors, I suicide, suicide

Lambo body, who gon' stop me?

Baby Keem is too wild

Function at the temple

Jesus pieces in the luau

Mr. Morale

Savior lyrics - Kendrick Lamar, Baby Keem & Sam Dew

 Kendrick made you think about it, but he is not your savior

Cole made you feel empowered, but he is not your savior

Future said, "Get a money counter," but he is not your savior

'Bron made you give his flowers, but he is not your savior

He is not your savior


Mr. Morale, give me high-five

Two times center codefendant judging my life

Back pedaler, what they say? You do the cha-cha

I'ma stand on it, 6'5" from 5'5"

Fun fact, I ain't taking shit back

Like it when they pro-Black, but I'm more Kodak Black

Tell me where the money at, ayy, where the homies at?

Universal callout, I can members only that, ayy

Si-si, wait a minute

Ven aquí (Ven aquí), c'est la vie (C'est la vie)

I tell the whole truth from A to Z, ayy

Show me you real, show me that you bleed, ayy

Hello? Crackers? (Let me hear that back)

I seen niggas arguing about who's blacker

Even blacked out screens and called it solidarity (Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck)

Meditating in silence made you wanna tell on me (Fuck)


Bitch, are you happy for me?

Really, are you happy for me?

Smile in my face, but are you happy for me?

Yeah, I'm out the way, are you happy for me?

Bitch, are you happy for me?

Really, are you happy for me?

Smile in my face, but are you happy for me?

Yeah, I'm out the way, are you happy for me? (High up)


Bite they tongues in rap lyrics

Scared to be crucified about a song, but they won't admit it

Politically correct is how you keep an opinion

Niggas is tight-lipped, fuck who dare to be different

Seen a Christian say the vaccine mark of the beast

Then he caught COVID and prayed to Pfizer for relief

Then I caught COVID and started to question Kyrie

Will I stay organic or hurt in this bed for two weeks? (You really wanna know?)

Do you want peace? (How I get so low?)

Then watch us in the street (Only one way to go)

One protest for you (High up)

Three-sixty-five for me (You really wanna know?)

Vladimir making nightmares (How I get so low?)

But that's how we all think (Only one way to go)

The collective conscious (High up)

Calamities on repeat, huh


Bitch, are you happy for me?

Really, are you happy for me?

Smile in my face, but are you happy for me?

Yeah, I'm out the way, are you happy for me?

Bitch, are you happy for me?

Really, are you happy for me?

Smile in my face, but are you happy for me?

Yeah, I'm out the way, are you happy for me?


Truth, it resides in the fire

The need of it's dire

Deceiving the lies, I know

Truth, it resides in the fire

The need of it's dire

Deceiving the lies, I know


The cat is out the bag, I am not your savior

I find it just as difficult to love thy neighbors

Especially when people got ambiguous favors

But they hearts not in it, see, everything's for the paper

The struggle for the right side of history

Independent thought is like an eternal enemy

Capitalists posing as compassionates be offending me

Yeah, suck my dick with authenticity

Yeah, Tupac dead, gotta think for yourself

Yeah, heroes looking for the villains to help

I never been sophisticated, saving face

Being manipulative, such an acquired taste

I rubbed elbows with people that was for the people

They all greedy, I don't care for no public speaking

And they like to wonder where I've been

Protecting my soul in the valley of silence

Auntie Diaries lyrics - Kendrick Lamar

 Heart plays in ways the mind can't figure out

Heart plays in ways the mind can't—

Heart plays in ways the mind can't figure out

This is how we conceptualize human beings


My auntie is a man now

I think I'm old enough to understand now

Drinking Paul Masson with her hat turned backwards

Motorola pager, off-white Guess jacket

Blue Air Max's, gold chains, and curl kits

'93 Nissan wax job, the earliest

Big social, big personality, vocal

Played the underground verbatim and stayed local

My auntie is a man now

I watch him and his girl hold their hands down

Tip of the avenues under street lights made his

Thinking, "I want me a bad bitch when I get big"

They hug on the corner like California king

Cold hand all up her skirt, cars whistling down the road

See, my auntie is a man now, slight bravado

Scratching the likes from lotto

Hoping that she pull up tomorrow

So I can hang out in the front seat

Six by nines keeping the music up under me

My auntie is a man now

Asked my momma why my uncles don't like him that much

And at the parties why they always wanna fight him that much

She said, "Ain't no tellin'

Niggas always been jealous because he had more women

More money and more attention made more envy

Calling him anything but broke was less offending"


My auntie is a man now

I think I'm old enough to understand now

Drinking Paul Masson with her hat turned backwards

Back when it was comedic relief to say, "Faggot"

Faggot, faggot, faggot, we ain't know no better

Elementary kids with no filter, however

My auntie became a man and I took pride in it

She wasn't gay, she ate pussy, and that was the difference

That's what I told my friends in second grade

She picking me up from school, they stare at her in the face

They couldn't comprehend what I grew accustomed

We pull off bumpin' Quik like it was nothing

My auntie is a man now, what a relationship

I grew up fast, I needed no one to babysit

He gave me some cash then gave me some game

Cherry freshener on the dash, I never complained

She even cut my hair at the pad, was loving my fade

The first person I seen write a rap

That's when my life had changed

House full of demo, smoke stuck on the window

Cameras on the microphone, all women and men though

My auntie was a man now, we cool with it

The history had trickled down and made us ign'ant

My favorite cousin said he's returning the favor

And following my auntie with the same behavior


Demetrius is Mary-Ann now

He's more confident to live his plan now (Talking to the world's gonna bring you down)

But the family in disbelief this time (Talking to the world's gonna bring you down)

Convincing themselves, "He ain't living discreet, he's fine" (Talking to the world's gonna bring you down)

They said they never seen it in him, but I seen it (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

The Barbie dolls played off reflection of Venus (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

He built a wall so tall you couldn't climb over

He didn't laugh as hard when the kids start joking (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

"Faggot, faggot, faggot," we ain't know no better

Middle school kids with no filter, however

I had to be very mindful of my good cousin

I knew exactly who he was, but I still loved him

Demetrius is Mary-Ann now

I mean he's really Mary-Ann, even took things further

Changed his gender before Bruce Jenner was certain

Living his truth even if it meant see a surgeon

We didn't talk for a while, he seemed more distant

Wasn't comfortable around me, everything was offensive

But I recall we both had a sick sense of humor

Made raw, but time changes all


Demetrius is Mary-Ann now

Remember church, Easter Sunday?

I sat in the pew, you had stronger faith

More spiritual when these dudes were living life straight

Which I found ironic 'cause the pastor didn't see him the same

He said my cousin was going through some things

He promised the world we living in was an act on abomination

And Demetrius was to blame

I knew you was conflicted by the feelings of preacherman

Wondering if God still call you a decent man

Still you found the courage to be subservient just to anoint

Until he singled you out to prove his point, saying

"Demetrius is Mary-Ann now

Church, his auntie is a man now," it hurt

You the most 'cause your belief was close to his words

Forcing me to stand now

I said, "Mr. Preacherman, should we love thy neighbor?

The laws of the land or the heart, what's greater?

I recognize the study she was taught since birth

But that don't justify the feelings that my cousin preserved"

The building was thinking out loud, bad angel

That's when you looked at me and smiled, said, "Thank you"

The day I chose humanity over religion

The family got closer, it was all forgiven

I said them F-bombs, I ain't know any better

Mistakenly, I ain't think that you'd know any different

See, I was taught words was nothing more than a sound

If ever they was pronounced without any intentions

The very second you challenged the shit I was kicking

Reminded me about a show I did out the city

That time I brung a fan on stage to rap

But disapproved the word that she couldn't say with me

You said, "Kendrick, ain't no room for contradiction

To truly understand love, switch position

'Faggot, faggot, faggot,' we can say it together

But only if you let a white girl say 'Nigga'"

Mr. Morale lyrics - Kendrick Lamar & Tanna Leone

 It was one of the worst performances I've seen in my life

I couldn't sleep last night because I felt this shit–

Ooh, ah, ooh, ah

Ooh, ah, ah, ooh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yee


Enoch, your father's just detoxed, my callin' is right on time

Transformation, I must had a thousand lives

And like three thousand wives

You should know that I'm slightly off

Fightin' off demons that been outside

Better known as myself, I'm a demigod

Every thought is creative, sometimes I'm afraid of my open mind


Shit on my mind, and it's heavy

Tell you in pieces 'cause it's way too heavy

My diamonds, the choker is heavy

More life to give on demand, are you ready?

Who keep 'em honest like us?

Who in alignment like us?

Who gotta heal 'em all? Us (Us)

When there's no one to call


Don't need no conversation

If it ain't 'bout the business, shut the door now

Bitch, it's a celebration

And if this shit ain't bussin', what's it for now?


Steppin' out when the weight lifts

Floatin' on 'em (Ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

Floatin' on 'em (Float, float, ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

Floatin' on 'em (Float, float, ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

Floatin' on 'em (Float, ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

Steppin' out when the weight lifts

Floatin' on 'em (Ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

Floatin' on 'em (Float, float, ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

Floatin' on 'em (Float, float, ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

Floatin' on 'em (Float, float, ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)


Uzzi, your father's in deep meditation

My spirit's awakened, my brain is asleep

I got a new temperature

Sharpenin' multiple swords in the faith I believe

I think about Robert Kelly

If he weren't molested, I wonder if life'd fail him

I wonder if Oprah found closure

The way that she postered the hurt that a woman carries

My mother abused young

Like all of the mothers back where we from

SSI bury family members

At the repass, they servin' Popeyes chicken

What you know about Black trauma?

F&Ns, kickin' back is another genre

Tyler Perry, the face of a thousand rappers

Using violence to cover what really happen

I know somebody's listenin'

Past life regressions to know my conditions

It's based off experience

Karma for karma, my habits insensitive

Watchin' my cousin struggle with addiction

Then watchin' her firstborn make a million

And both of them off the grid for forgiveness

I'm sacrificin' myself to start the healin' and...


Shit on my mind and it's heavy

Tell you in pieces 'cause it's way too heavy

My diamonds, the choker is heavy

More life to give on demand, are you ready

Who keep 'em honest like us?

Who in alignment like us?

Who gotta heal 'em all? Us (Us)

When there's no one to call us (Us)


Say, "Hydrate, it's time to heal"

Safe, you're frustrated, I can feel

Huddle up, tie the flag, call the troops, holla back

Huddle up, tie the flag, call the troops, holla back

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

(Ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

People get taken over by this pain-body (Ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

Because this energy field (Ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da) that almost has a life of its own (Ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da)

It needs to (Ooh-ooh-ooh, da-da), periodically, feed on more unhappiness

Mother I Sober lyrics - kendrick lamar (feat. Beth Gibbons of Portishead)

 I'm sensitive, I feel everything, I feel everybody

One man standin' on two words, heal everybody

Transformation, then reciprocation, karma must return

Heal myself, secrets that I hide, buried in these words

Death threats, ego must die, but I let it purge

Pacify, broken pieces of me, it was all a blur

Mother cried, put they hands on her, it was family ties

I heard it all, I should've grabbed a gun, but I was only five

I still feel it weighin' on my heart, my first tough decision

In the shadows clingin' to my soul as my only critic

Where's my faith? Told you I was Christian, but just not today

I transformed, prayin' to the trees, God is taking shape

My mother's mother followed me for years in her afterlife

Starin' at me on back of some buses, I wake up at night

Loved her dearly, traded in my tears for a Range Rover

Transformation, you ain't felt grief 'til you felt it sober


I wish I was somebody

Anybody but myself

Ooh, I wish I was somebody

Anybody but myself


I remember lookin' in the mirror knowin' I was gifted

Only child, me for seven years, everything for Christmas

Family ties, they accused my cousin, "Did he touch you, Kendrick?"

Never lied, but no one believed me when I said "He didn't"

Frozen moments, still holdin' on it, hard to trust myself

I started rhymin', copin' mechanisms to lift up myself

Talked to my lawyer, told me not to be so hard on myself

He has an aura, I hope to achieve, if I find some help

Congratulations, made it to be famous, still I feel uneasy

Water watchin', live my life in nature, only thing relieves me

Spirit guide whisper in my ear, tell me that she sees me

"Did he touch you?" I said "No" again, still they didn't believe me

Mother's brother said he got revenge for my mother's face

Black and blue, the image of my queen that I can't erase

'Til this day can't look her in the eyes, pain is takin' over

Blame myself, you never felt guilt 'til you felt it sober


I wish I was somebody

Anybody but myself

Ooh, I wish I was somebody

Anybody but myself


I was never high, I was never drunk, never out my mind

I need control, they handed me some smoke, but still I declined

I did it sober sittin' with myself, I went through all emotions

No dependents, except for one, let me bring you closer

Intoxicated, there's a lustful nature that I failed to mention

Insecurities that I project, sleepin' with other women

Whitney's hurt, the purest soul I know, I found her in the kitchen

Askin' God, "Where did I lose myself? And can it be forgiven?"

Broke me down, she looked me in my eyes, "Is there an addiction?"

I said "No," but this time I lied, I knew that I can't fix it

Pure soul, even in her pain, know she cared for me

Gave me a number, said she recommended some therapy

I asked my momma why she didn't believe me when I told her "No"

I never knew she was violated in Chicago, I'm sympathetic

Told me that she feared it happened to me, for my protection

Though it never happened, she wouldn't agree

Now I'm affected, twenty years later trauma has resurfaced

Amplified as I write this song, I shiver 'cause I'm nervous

I was five, questioning myself, 'lone for many years

Nothing's wrong, just results on how them questions made me feel

I made it home, seven years of tour, chasin' manhood

But Whitney's gone, by time you hear this song, she did all she could

All those women gave me superpowers, what I thought I lacked

I pray our children don't inherit me and feelings I attract

A conversation not bein' addressed in Black families

The devastation, hauntin' generations and humanity

They raped our mothers, then they raped our sisters

Then they made us watch, then made us rape each other

Psychotic torture between our lives we ain't recovered

Still livin' as victims in the public eyes who pledge allegiance

Every other brother has been compromised

I know the secrets, every other rapper sexually abused

I see 'em daily buryin' they pain in chains and tattoos

So listen close before you start to pass judgement on how he move

Learn how he cope, whenever his uncle had to walk him from school

His anger grows deep in misogyny

This is post-traumatic Black families and a sodomy, today is still active

So I set free myself from all the guilt that I thought I made

So I set free my mother all the hurt that she titled shame

So I set free my cousin, chaotic for my mother's pain

I hope Hykeem made you proud 'cause you ain't die in vain

So I set free the power of Whitney, may she heal us all

So I set free our children, may good karma keep them with God

So I set free the hearts filled with hatred, keep our bodies sacred

As I set free all you abusers, this is transformation


I wish I was somebody

Anybody but myself

Ooh, I wish I was somebody

Anybody but myself


You did it, I'm proud of you

You broke a generational curse

Say "Thank you, dad"

Thank you, daddy, thank you, mommy, thank you, brother

Mr. Morale


Before I go in fast asleep, love me for me

I bare my soul and now we're free

Mirror lyrics - kendrick lamar

I choose me

The pressure's taking over me, it's beginning to loom
Better if I spare your feelings and tell you the truth
Lately, I redirected my point of view
You won't grow waitin' on me
I can't live in the Matrix, huh
Rather fall short of your graces, huh
This time I won't trade places, huh
Not about who's right, who's wrong, huh
Evolve, the only thing known, huh
Ask me when I'm coming home, huh
Blink twice again, I'm gone

I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry

She woke up in the morning for the daily news
I was so low and mourning through the family feuds
Baby, I told you a story and laid down all the rules
Still, you won't grow waiting on me

I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry

'Cause all of it's toxic
Girl, I'm not relevant to givin' on profit
Personal gain off my pain, it's nonsense
Darlin', my demons is off the leash for a moshpit
Baby, I just had a baby, you know she need me
Workin' on myself, the counselin' is not easy
Don't you point a finger, just to point a finger
'Cause critical thinkin' is a deal-breaker
Faith in one man is a ship sinking
Do yourself a favor and get a mirror that mirror grievance
Then point it at me so the reflection can mirror freedom
She told me that she need me the most, I didn't believe her
She even called me names on the post, the world can see it
Jokes and gaslightin'
Mad at me 'cause she didn't get my vote, she say I'm triflin'
Disregardin' the way that I cope with my own vices
Maybe it's time to break it off
Run away from the culture to follow my heart

I realized, true love's not savin' face
But unconditional
When will you let me go?
I trust you'll find independence
If not, then all is forgiven
Sorry I didn't save the world, my friend
I was too busy buildin' mine again

I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry
I choose me, I'm sorry

Black Panther lyrics - kendrick lamar

 (from "Black Panther" soundtrack)


(Why I go easy?)

(Know why I go easy)

Wait


King of my city, king of my country, king of my homeland

King of the filthy, king of the fallen, we livin' again

King of the shooters, looters, boosters, and ghettos poppin'

King of the past, present, future, my ancestors watchin'

King of the culture, king of the soldiers, king of the bloodshed

King of the wisdom, king of the ocean, king of the respect

King of the optimistics and dreamers that go and get it

King of the winner's district and geniuses with conviction

King of the fighters, king of the fathers, king of the belated

King of the answer, king of the problem, king of the forsaken

King of the empathy, your resentment, king of remorse

King of my enemies, may they fall defeat, I rejoice

King of the skyscrapers, dodgin' haters, broke religion

Nine faces, go against 'em, I erased 'em with precision

I embrace them with collision, kings did it

King's vision, Black Panther, King Kendrick, all hail the king!

I dropped a million tears

I know several responsibilities put me here

I don't pedal backwards, but I live old-fashioned

The lens that I'm lookin' through

Won't prescribe me the right glasses, masses are now free

Ashes I'm dumpin' out, 'bout to spread all 'cross seas

Sisters and brothers in unison, not because of me

Because we don't glue with the opposition, we glue with peace

But still'd fuck up your organization if any beef

What do you stand for?

Are you a activist? What are your city plans for?

Are you a accident? Are you just in the way?

Your native tongue contradictin' what your body language say

Are you a king or you jokin'? Are you a king or you posin'?

Are you a king or you smokin' bowl rocks to keep you open?

Because the king don't cry, king don't die

King don't lie, king give all, king get by, king don't fall

Kingdom come, when I come, you know why

(King, king, king, king)

I am T'Challa!

All The Stars lyrics - Kendrick Lamar & SZA

 ("Black Panther" Version)

(from "Black Panther" soundtrack)


[Kendrick Lamar:]

Love, let's talk about love

Is it anything and everything you hoped for?

Or do the feeling haunt you? (Haunt)

I know the feeling haunt you (Haunt)


[SZA:]

This may be the night that my dreams might let me know

All the stars approach you, all the stars approach you, all the stars approach 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


[Kendrick Lamar:]

Tell me what you gon' do to me

Confrontation ain't nothin' new to me

You can bring a bullet, bring a sword, bring a morgue

But you can't bring the truth to me

Fuck you and all your expectations

I don't 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 ain't invite you

Oh, you important?

You the moral to the story? You endorsin'?

Motherfucker, I don't even like you

Corrupt a man's heart with a gift

That's how you find out who you dealin' with

A small percentage who I'm buildin' with

I want the credit if I'm losin' or I'm winnin'

On my momma, that's the realest shit


Love, let's talk about love

Is it anything and everything you hoped for?

Or do the feeling haunt you? (Haunt)

I know the feeling haunt you (Haunt)


[SZA:]

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


Skin covered in ego

Get to talkin' like ya involved, like a rebound

Got no end game, got no ways out, got to stay down

It's the way that you making me feel

Like nobody ever loved me like you do, you do

You kinda feeling like you're tryna get away from me

If you do, I won't move

I ain't just cry for no reason, I ain't just pray for no reason

I give thanks for the days, for the hours

And another way, another life breathin'

I did it all 'cause it feel good

I wouldn't do it at all if it feel bad

Better live your life, we're runnin' out of time


[Kendrick Lamar & SZA:]

Love, let's talk about love

Is it anything and everything you hoped for?

Or do the feeling haunt you? (Haunt)

I know the feeling haunt you (Haunt)


[SZA:]

This may be the night that my dreams might let me know

All the stars approach you, all the stars approach you, all the stars approach 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

Opps lyrics - Kendrick Lamar, Vince Staples & Yugen Blakrok

 (from "Black Panther" soundtrack)


[Kendrick Lamar:]

Fuck y'all want from me

Y'all don't own money

Y'all don't want from me

Y'all wanna die in the chase of things

We all gon' die and break the thing

Trapped inside a burning church

Made it out alive

God know my worth

Raw face, scarface, your face

More defeat, I know it hurts

20 of 'em

20 on call

Got 20 in my hand

Got 20 on judge

Gave 20 to my dog

Got 20 on girls

That'll fuck you to— (zoom zoom)

That'll fuck you to fuck you over

Take your safe, take your keys, take your Rover

Take the heart you thought you had

Speed off, rollin' up life in a taxi cab


Opps on the radar (you're dead to me)

How you wanna play ball? (you're dead to me)

[*censored*] takes all (you're dead to me)

(You're dead to me, you're dead to me)

You know what zone I'm in... (you're dead to me)

Don't care who you with (you're dead to me)

Watch me do my shit (you're dead to me)

(You're dead to me)


[Vince Staples:]

Hey hey

Ready, set, go crazy

Here to finesse, you see I'm getting mines

Life hit a nigga with a lemon's lime

Like what at night we still committing crimes, spitting rhymes

Bought a coupe with the spinning rims, get inside

Bring a friend, bleeding hands from the genocide

Clean me up, beam me up to the other side

Brothers die, 'cause coons turn to butterflies

They don't wanna see me sittin' in the Benz

They don't wanna see me livin' on the end

Of the city in a city wide bend

Show no pity in the city for the sin

They don't wanna see me gettin' to the check

They just wanna see me swimming in the debt

Don't drown on ground wait until you hear

911, freeze (zoom zoom) dead


[Kendrick Lamar:]

Opps on the radar (you're dead to me)

How you wanna play ball? (you're dead to me)

[*censored*] takes all (you're dead to me)

(You're dead to me, you're dead to me)

You know what zone I'm in (you're dead to me)

Don't care who you with (you're dead to me)

Watch me do my shit (you're dead to me)

(You're dead to me)


[Yugen Blakrok:]

I move like a millipede

When I flex them tendons like rubber trees

Young Millie Jackson back to the shit

Mouth piece drawn, got a verbal armory

Stack bodies not figurines

Move beneath the surface, submarine

I'm half machine, obscene with a light sword

Look inside the brain, it's a ride in the psych ward

What you standing on the side for?

Roar like a lioness, punch like a cyborg

Spit slick, attack is subliminal

Flowers on my mind, but the rhyme style sinister

Stand behind my own bars, like a seasoned criminal

Gotham city streets I'll blame the [*censored*]

Crushing any system, that belittles us

Antidote to every poison they administer

Switch it like time signatures

Colours in my aura tend cover the perimeter

Brown bodies that the blues wanna shoot through

Hi-rez lasers wanna (zoom, zoom, zoom)

Roll over your eyes

My strength ain't nothing like my size

Blades on the top, Kathleen Cleaver

Tangle my chords like a weaver


[Kendrick Lamar:]

Opps on the radar (you're dead to me)

How you wanna play ball? (you're dead to me)

[*censored*] takes all (you're dead to me)

(You're dead to me, you're dead to me)

You know what zone I'm in (you're dead to me)

Don't care who you with (you're dead to me)

Watch me do my shit (you're dead to me)

(You're dead to me)

I Am lyrics - Jorja Smith & Kendrick Lamar

 (from "Black Panther" soundtrack)


Try it if it feels right (try it)

Try it if it feels right, yah

When you try

Ohh, ohh


[Jorja Smith:]

I'm trying

I'm just, I'm just

I been out here tryin' to see my homecoming

And of course somebody is always gonna say something

Try and shoot me down for voicing my own opinion

Triggering a part of me that's always been indifferent


And I know that we have asked for change

Don't be scared to put the fears to shame


When you know what you got

Sacrifice ain't that hard

Feel like depending on me

Sometimes we ain't meant to be free

When you know what you got

Sacrifice ain't that hard

Feel like depending on me

Sometimes we ain't meant to be free


Open up this letter, you ain't tryin' to be

You been blind to the subject but not blind to me

And I know that this margin ain't too small to me

Not too real, not too much anymore, not alone


And I know that we have asked for change

Don't be scared to put the fears to shame


When you know what you got

Sacrifice ain't that hard

Feel like depending on me

Sometimes we ain't meant to be free

When you know what you got

Sacrifice ain't that hard

Feel like depending on me

Sometimes we ain't meant to be free


[Jorja Smith (Kendrick Lamar):]

If who I am offends you

Don't feel sorry

Don't feel, don't feel sorry

Don't feel, don't feel sorry

(My loss is worth more than your wins)

(I'm satisfied if it starts to look in)

That is everything, that is everything, that is everything

That is everything

That is everything

I try to make it stop

I do want you want to stop

I try to make it stop

I do want you want to stop

I try to make it stop

I do want you want to stop

I try to make it stop

I do want you want to stop

I try to make it stop

I do want you want to stop
