Compton State of Mind
Kendrick Lamar - Kendrick Lamar (肯德里克·拉马尔)
I can tell you what it is
I can tell you what it isn't
No more K Dot
My mother had named me Kendrick
F**k a stage name
That's the name that I was given
The only thing that I can identify
Within this bidness
I'm just a good kid from Compton
That want to rap
Weighing my options
Pick up a Bible or a strap
I never killed a man
Never sold any crack
All I ever did was
Try to keep my city on the map
But this monkey on my back
Y'all don't want me to win
I'm tryna follow dreams
You want me to follow trends
So just to get a dollar
Will I sell my soul
I look the Devil in the eye
And tell him hell no
They say anything
Worth having is worth the wait
Well I want the world
Tell me how long that takes
There's no time like now
I can cut my patients short
Or give 'em some more gowns
I don't even want the crown
I just want a peace of mind
And ni**a when I get it
You won't get a piece of mine
Won't you mind your own bidness
A rich ni**a buy anything you sell him
A broke ni**a believe anything
That you tell him
Well I'm a broke ni**a
But still I wouldn't listen to you
Even if your hand was on a Bible quote
Ni**a
Pfttuh
See I was brought up different
Whatever that my pops said
For sure I'd listen
You said you did dirt
But I can't dig it
It don't concern you
If you wasn't born in it
Oh-no-oh-oh
I swear we got to fast-forward
Before time flies by
My new sound for '0-10 is why lie
And if you ain't trying to win
Then why try
Now you can low-ball
Or give me high five
This is I ni**a look into my eye
Ni**a I am Kendrick
Lamar
Ni**a my name is Kendrick
Lamar
I said my name is Kendrick
Lamar
I changed the name
Cause I was tired of being like y'all
Now finally I'm ready to tell the world
Who I are pfttuh
And that used to be a hell of a task
Now I'm ahead of my class
So go ahead and harass
My character like it don't carry a
Confidence that can marry a Halle Berry
Or Angelina with no cash
I'm bout to cash in my thoughts
Give you a compass
Then tell you get lost
What I'm bout to accomplish is something
That you can't fathom
Once the 'Eves' come
They quick to stare at him
Hoping I don't take they b**ch
But I'm on some other sh*t
When I'm done
I'm tryna run the government
They are big dreams
Transition from a rapper to a human being
You can't 'school' a dean
I be tutoring artist-es
Leave 'em with no audience
All cause they all oversaw it my God
Y'all be out partying
I be stealing your audience
All because who I are Lamar
But my first name
It gotta be Kendrick
Lamar
Ni**a my name is Kendrick
Lamar
I changed the name
Cause I was tired of being like y'all
Now finally I'm ready to tell the world
Who I are now let's go
But we can't go backwards
