alright (music video) - kendrick lamar lyrics
[poem]
ahhh! ahhh!
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
found myself screaming in the hotel room
lucifer was all around
so i kept running
until i found my safe haven
i was trying to convince myself the stripes i got
making myself realize what my foundation was
(in the room, and i run it)
(bluh! bluh! bluh! bluh!)
but while my loved ones were fighting the continuous war back in the city, i was entering a new one
a war that was based on apartheid and discrimination
[interlude]
ay on my momma n-gga (r.i.p. pat dawg)
i’mma be the greatest to ever do this sh-t
on my momma doe like
on the dead homies
aye sounwave turn this sh-t up n-gga
turn this sh-t up! sounwave, turn this sh-t up n-gga
tell me, who the b-tch n-gga hatin’ on me?
jumping on my d-ck, but this d-ck ain’t free
to pimp a b-tterfly, another cl-ssic cd
ghetto lullaby for every one-day mc
(bluh! bluh! bluh! bluh!)
n-gga, now r.i.p
my diligence is only meant to write your eulogy
[intro]
alls my life i has to fight, n-gga
alls my life i…
hard times like, “god!”
bad trips like, “yea!”
nazareth, i’m f-cked up
homie you f-cked up
but if god got us
then we gon’ be alright
[chorus: pharrell williams]
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
we gon’ be alright
do you hear me, do you feel me? we gon’ be alright
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
huh? we gon’ be alright
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
do you hear me, do you feel me? we gon’ be alright
[verse 1]
uh, and when i wake up
i recognize you’re lookin’ at me for the pay cut
but homicide be lookin’ at you from the face down
what mac-11 even boom with the b-ss down
schemin’, and let me tell you ’bout my life
paink!llers only put me in the twilight
where pretty p-ssy and benjamin is the highlight
now tell my momma i love her but this what i like, lord knows
20 of ’em in my chevy, tell ’em all to come and get me
reapin’ everything i sow, so my karma come
and heaven no preliminary hearing, so my record
i’m a motherf-ckin’ gangster in silence for the record
tell the world i know it’s too late
boys and girls, i think i gone cray
drown inside my vices all day
won’t you please believe when i say
[pre-chorus]
wouldn’t you know
we been hurt, been down before
n-gga, when our pride was low
lookin’ at the world like, “where do we go?”
n-gga, and we hate po-po
wanna k!ll us dead in the street fo sho
n-gga, i’m at the preacher’s door
my knees gettin’ weak, and my gun might blow
but we gon’ be alright
[chorus]
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
we gon’ be alright
do you hear me, do you feel me? we gon’ be alright
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
huh? we gon’ be alright
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
do you hear me, do you feel me? we gon’ be alright
[verse 2]
what you want, you a house, you a car?
40 acres and a mule, a piano, a guitar?
anything, see my name is lucy, i’m your dog
motherf-cker, you can live at the mall
i can see the evil, i can tell it, i know it’s illegal
i don’t think about it, i deposit every little zero
thinkin’ of my partner, put the candy, paint it on the regal
diggin’ in my pocket, ain’t a profit big enough to feed you
everyday my logic, get another dollar just to keep you
in the presence of your chico… ah!
i don’t talk about it, be about it, everyday i sequel
if i got it then you know you got it, heaven, i can reach you
pat dawg, pat dawg, pat dawg, my dog, that’s all
bick back and chad, i trap the bag for y’all
i rap, i black on track so rest -ssured
my rights, my wrongs; i write ’til i’m right with god
[pre-chorus]
wouldn’t you know
we been hurt, been down before
n-gga, when our pride was low
lookin’ at the world like, “where do we go?”
n-gga, and we hate po-po
wanna k!ll us dead in the street fo sho
n-gga, i’m at the preacher’s door
my knees gettin’ weak, and my gun might blow
but we gon’ be alright
[chorus]
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
we gon’ be alright
do you hear me, do you feel me? we gon’ be alright
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
huh? we gon’ be alright
n-gga, we gon’ be alright
do you hear me, do you feel me? we gon’ be alright
[outro]
i keep my head up high
i cross my heart and hope to die
lovin’ me is complicated
too afraid, a lot of changes
i’m alright, and you’re a favorite
dark nights in my prayers
[poem]
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
found myself screaming in the hotel room
i didn’t wanna self-destruct
the evils of lucy was all around me
so i went running for answers
