@@Timesuplets I wouldn't say it's a bad thing, but I do notice the mechanical flow at times. He and 3 stacks should do a track together. I think that would be a great move for the both of them. It could be like a man wrestling with his good and bad side type of thing.
@@rgw1380rw I remember reading somewhere that it took over a year to write it. He crafted a Hip Hop song that you could measure against the headiest songs ever created. The Rhythmic Flow Patterns of Andre 3000 meeting The Poetic Charms of Lauryn Hill
Wolf_MusikYT kind of towards the beginning if you keep listening you should here the same gun shots that you would in the actually song when the first verse ends
The beat is a hypnotic jazzy snare pattern meant to create an unsettled sense of regularity and normalcy to the chaos in the hood. The fact that we’re all vibing to the instrumental almost hides the fact that this song is literally about the death of a close friend and his final request to Kendrick to keep him alive through his art.
That type of instrumental that made me write some poetry just to let out some thoughts. Really gets you thinking about life though. Hope y'all all okay, if not talk to me. I'd be happy to talk about literally w.e bros.
Yeah this beat is definitely one of those "feel good to the soul" beats that will have you reflecting on shit from your past, pure genius production right here!

in 2013 two of my friends passed away from me in a span of a couple months apart. This song was what I kept on repeat 24/7 when they passed away. RIP I know yall are watching over us...
One of my homies mom killed the whole family bro. She just snapped it was really depressing. The other one was on a mission trip in OKC and got hit in a car wreck real bad. He was suppose to get married that year but, other things unfolded you know?
[Verse 1] I woke up this morning and figured I'd call you In case I'm not here tomorrow I'm hopin' that I can borrow A peace of mind, I'm behind on what's really important My mind is really distorted I find nothing but trouble in my life I'm fortunate you believe in a dream This orphanage we call a ghetto is quite a routine And last night was just another distraction Or a reaction of what we consider madness I know exactly what happened You ran outside when you heard my brother cry for help Held him like a newborn baby and made him feel Like everything was alright in a fight he tried to put up But the type of bullet that stuck Had went against his will, that's blood spilled on your hands My plan's rather vindictive Everybody's a victim in my eyes When I ride it's a murderous rhythm And outside became pitch black A demon glued to my back, whispering "Get 'em!" I got 'em, and I ain't give a fuck That same mentality I told my brother not to duck In actuality it's a trip how we trip off of colors I wonder if I'll ever discover a passion like you and recover The life that I knew as a youngin In pajamas and dun-ta-duns When thunder comes it rains cats and dogs Dumb niggas like me never prosper Prognosis of a problem child, I'm proud and well-devoted This Piru shit been in me forever So forever I'ma push it, wherever, whenever And I love you 'cause you love my brother like you did Just promise me you'll tell this story when you make it big And if I die before your album drop, I hope- [Gunshots]

Every time I hear this instrumental, it makes me remember my grandma and grandpa, and all the love they gave me when they were here. My grandma died in 2016 from breast cancer. My grandpa died in 2017 from smoking too much. It also makes me sad about Kendrick's story too because he lost loved ones as well.
@@childofGod477 Thank you my brotha, remember that race doesn't matter, humans only use race towards anger towards people that have a certain skin tone. We all people from one race, it's called the human race, so all we gotta do is try our best to bring happiness to each other's lives. We only have one life, and even though it may seem like we will live forever, life is very short and we have to make every single day of our lives count.
I remember listening to this album when it first released and this was my favorite song on there because it was a continuation of Keisha's Song. Then when he gets to the brother and the gunshots popped off, I almost teared up because I had become attached to the narrative. Even listening to this instrumental and hearing just the sound brings up that memory.
amazing how Kendrick verse changed the feel of this beat. First time I heard it it sounded almost sunny, but now it makes me think how crazy life is. Remember those you lost and who got lost on the way

Stop posting lyrics on youtube, someday, someone will steal them and become rich off it. Noone is looking for rappers in the comment section on youtube so stop.
It's not like we hear this type of hip hop on the radio anyways. There's no way to put these poems to a trap song. It wouldn't even match some of rappers personas anyways. They're main concern is money, cars, weed, and bitches. I don't see that coming from these poems these brothers are trying to share, the struggle ain't nobody trying to hear. The truth, the real.......you tell me, just lend us an ear.

My intuition is Reinvention - kie Reinvention within my head Opening up newer gates God is 0guiding me to have stronger faith But first I need to change my mental state reciprocate the demons in my head Driving the merc but first you gotta remove the curse We're all one Tryna be loved Using colours to cover up my hurt Going deep within my feelings I sink Ppl be thinkin Ppl be seeking Different things, I wanna rise above from the pain I wanna express myself without having hate beauty in her eyes shows the pain from her darker nights Let's just rise above embrace the curve Open up your arms to those ppl who still have hate Rumours going around like plates passing around Just tryna stay on the ground Are you consumed by the crown Who are you gonna surround yourself with, you are who you mix with I don't brag about getting laid Send help she said before fades Let's just communicate Walking your path, nobody said it won't be tough Constant swipe of never ending lies Water your mind, you're saving your time Stop asking her, will ever you be mine Take the time, to improve what's not fine Stop the rewind What's the point of suffering your mind I get it she's a nine But is she really that divine gotta refine your design what are u tryna fix Inhaling so many different kind of vicks Expressing yourself doesn't mean that you're weak Just means you're embracing what cannot be fixed Storytelling in disguise Soreading love like it's a franchise Stop depending on people when you're sad Don't be mad I'm not done yet Tryna act bold but lowkey afraid of the unknown Don't call me back, I ain't gonna pick up my phone Stop telling me that you're alone You're gonna leave earth with a single soul You've been acting pretty cold I've been feeling pretty low Why can't we just go with the flow Tryna give out my love but bailing when the path is so blur Tryna stay in love but this is making me deter when can we ever concur good days are gonna occur Just stop drinking that liquor That shit will make u suffer Don't stay on the same spot Move on from the battles that you've once fought Don't let your sexual drive interfere with your inner life When time is right Go full out that night We gotta stop this fight Have a piece of my mind honesty over everything It's not the things we say but the way we portray

When you think about me, are they positive/ Can I think back on the days that we had time to live/ And replay the memories where it was love to give/ And while I think back on it all it feels so counterfeit/ Illusions of Grandeur that I'm encountering/ A road trip down memory lane you could count me in/ Will this adventure be everything that I doubt it is/ Or will I end up on a path that leaves me powerless/ Was I really there or was it all imagination/ I can think of feels but cannot fathom their creation/ Counting down the hours can't connect the days of waiting/ And when I sit and reminisce can't stand to weigh my patience/ But these thoughts will make me famous/ Pouring out my brain so that these verses can be dated/ But as I sit in sickness does it mask my words in tainted/ Visions or is it true that my passion's too contagious/ Try to skip those days in Vegas,/ The land of distant memories and dreams of those who've wasted/ Dolla after dolla just to get their mindstream faded/ But in this day and age is it wrong of me to blame em/ I'll pop the pill but won't swallow/ So much on mind but the rest of me hollow/ Don't trust my own decisions put my faith into a bottle/ Fail this test of life even though I know that a lot will/ Passing up experience to build the love I fondle/ Seen too many deaths, off to buy another laurel/ If I had only hope to borrow/ Would it be my life dream to drown down all my sorrows/ Buy a round of shots and try to usher in tomorrow/ It's a sad reality such a merry dream we follow/
Forghetto Definitely. You don't realize how much this honestly means to me haha. I'm gonna definitely try to start at least recording personal raps and working from there bro. Thanks for the feedback from the bottom of my heart
Woke up with an eary feeling Thoughts are racing My Head is killing Body shaking From wind that’s chilling Got me waiting patient for buses filled with children Not used to laughing so Music blasting while staring out the window Not from lack of havin but Lack of passion besides cash and rappin Told me stick to school So Stuck to Fashion Used to bending rules I can never imagine 9-5 for the rest of my life Sitting Stuck in traffic Bitchin where’s my casket Missing times that’s past us Cause nowadays it’s plastic And Holliday’s the saddest All in my ways called habits Like sleeping all day on mattress Or trying to chase the baddest Or contemplate my status Can’t get away from attics Look around we all surrounded By a bunch of fiends who were meant to fly but staying grounded Minds clouded in dopamines Thinking hopeless dreams Now is how it’s sounding The direction I’m headed Most def A legend no question Not really used to this beggin But can you lead me to heaven I got this message embedded To only love from a distance That’s why my love for you’s hidden I miss the times that we shared and i miss times that we didn’t Said you’d always be there but then you went independent Left me to deal with the Pressure Of success and the failure Theres a Fine line between both No more stories of hope Just our lungs filled with smoke Now On a different approach To hit the gas and lets go No looking back or be broke In fact I’m actually both Stuck in the past and can’t cope I Relapse in these cycles While Times are getting rough I gotta skim through the Bible Cause the Devil ain’t giving up

This has always been a rainy day song for me. Whenever it rains I put this on. I think 4 your eyez only (the song) by J. Cole is more winter esque if you want a samidot equivalent.
@@esmo915 sorry for your loss. I lost an uncle not too long after i wrote a college presentation describing the storytelling aspects of this song, one of the last projects i completed before graduating college. And all that time that led up to that moment was for him cuz he never graduated. He was like a father, and just happy he got to see me graduate before his untimely passing. Sad thinking about as this beat plays but it puts me at peace. Sorry, just thought id share. This beats so lovely.
The greatest artist have given you joy from the pain they have experienced They have given you an abstract image of the feelings that they feel is vivid They create characters and actors that are larger than life They are small, bitter and timid They can only channel the things that they cannot admit To themselves, they translate seamlessly through another person soul They can only emit, but cannot absorb the light in their deep dark hole People like Hemmingway, Shakespeare and others can only know This burden, I am burdened And saddened by this never changing pattern If I cannot express this passion I feel there is something in my life that I am lacking I am drawn to pain I am drawn to people believing that I am insane If your brain believes it is crazed what’s to stop it from thinking that way The addictions just allow this addiction to live a life of fiction While someone else has to bare living his life in omission Sometimes I wonder if I am blessed My mom believes in God a 110% I think she loves Him more than me I don’t blame her though, I know where she is coming from She believes He completely believes in me Even if I don’t believe in myself He will always help me if I am need I’ve been seeing images of a clown A tear streaming down its face Removing the paint as it amplifies his pain But you just see a small glimpse of his skin I wonder if that has meaning The crooked smile looks broken But the fact that he is trying Atleast justifies that in a panchromatic portrait You can still see the bright sight
Coming from the light realm, flight form is inner being/ psychedelic ciphers ignite waves and fly seeing/ high fly wi fi as ravens watch time fly/ serenades of stars as we watch riders on the night sky/ memories lost as love leaves begin to fall/ veins in the leaves as smoke and sin covers all/ can't feel my face again sinning in dream/ she haunts all memories as a face smiles with a scream/ scene ends cinematic watching time go serene/ just another memory in a museum of broken dreams/

TheIbdeathskull now those are significant bars.. lol i find it funy theres people complaining about the comment section of writers once you sift throughout enough you find the good ones, not everyone shitty stuff on their mind to say over a good beat, props my guy 💯👍
I spilled my emotions out on a paper with pen to this beat for a girl I have an insane crush on (she knows I have a crush on her) everybody please wish me luck, I'mma spit it to her next time we chill ...
brother. I'm going to be as honest as possible right now. What you're doing may seem like some Get Rich or Die Tryin' shit, but it will not work. Girls will only like that shit if it's from who's successful in music already. You're being a little too emotional, and if there's something that girls absolutely do not want, it's being too emotional. That being said -- good luck.

i see a life evolving, lookin at my daughter peekin, eye's slightly open, when she really should be sleeping/ mind frozen/ something's stopping my mouth from speaking/ hearin the words Da Da/ softly spoken wit arms reaching / in a motion for me to hold her in total freedom/ who needs a reason for feeling this kind a whole completion/ I know my roll is teaching/ i hope we grow & deepen/ to be the father figure she can put her soul belief in/ and if she sing about me it will be a song of seasons.Q

The Infamous Lmao.
The beat is a hypnotic jazzy snare pattern meant to create an unsettled sense of regularity and normalcy to the chaos in the hood. The fact that we’re all vibing to the instrumental almost hides the fact that this song is literally about the death of a close friend and his final request to Kendrick to keep him alive through his art.

Did you write this for a paper in college?
some heavy shit
ok bruh, this goin into some deep stuff that u revealed to me
kendrick lamar has such good taste in instrumentals. All his shit has a deeper more concious feel to it...even without the lyrics.
Reminds me: Me Against to World "1995" of Tupac Shakur.. :D
Exactly. Shit is so different from all of the other trash rappers these days. Its all about them good beats and setting the vibe.

One of my homies mom killed the whole family bro. She just snapped it was really depressing. The other one was on a mission trip in OKC and got hit in a car wreck real bad. He was suppose to get married that year but, other things unfolded you know?
my brother was stabbed 9 times in the chest, robbed, and bled to death. and this song always reminded me of him

[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning and figured I'd call you
In case I'm not here tomorrow
I'm hopin' that I can borrow
A peace of mind, I'm behind on what's really important
My mind is really distorted
I find nothing but trouble in my life
I'm fortunate you believe in a dream
This orphanage we call a ghetto is quite a routine
And last night was just another distraction
Or a reaction of what we consider madness
I know exactly what happened
You ran outside when you heard my brother cry for help
Held him like a newborn baby and made him feel
Like everything was alright in a fight he tried to put up
But the type of bullet that stuck
Had went against his will, that's blood spilled on your hands
My plan's rather vindictive
Everybody's a victim in my eyes
When I ride it's a murderous rhythm
And outside became pitch black
A demon glued to my back, whispering "Get 'em!"
I got 'em, and I ain't give a fuck
That same mentality I told my brother not to duck
In actuality it's a trip how we trip off of colors
I wonder if I'll ever discover a passion like you and recover
The life that I knew as a youngin
In pajamas and dun-ta-duns
When thunder comes it rains cats and dogs
Dumb niggas like me never prosper
Prognosis of a problem child, I'm proud and well-devoted
This Piru shit been in me forever
So forever I'ma push it, wherever, whenever
And I love you 'cause you love my brother like you did
Just promise me you'll tell this story when you make it big
And if I die before your album drop, I hope- [Gunshots]

Every time I hear this instrumental, it makes me remember my grandma and grandpa, and all the love they gave me when they were here. My grandma died in 2016 from breast cancer. My grandpa died in 2017 from smoking too much. It also makes me sad about Kendrick's story too because he lost loved ones as well.
Sorry for your losses my brother, May God comfort your heart and be your peace in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

I remember listening to this album when it first released and this was my favorite song on there because it was a continuation of Keisha's Song. Then when he gets to the brother and the gunshots popped off, I almost teared up because I had become attached to the narrative. Even listening to this instrumental and hearing just the sound brings up that memory.
I got to 3:24 in the video until I realized I was listening to the instrumental, I was like damn was the intro always this long wtf
ChiknNoodl lmao funny but total bs
Nv_deleted it ain't I was listening to it on auto play

so much emotion When the gun shots fire on the first verse even with just the instrumental .
That part of the track always hits me hard. It always feels like he gets killed for real, very well done.
amazing how Kendrick verse changed the feel of this beat. First time I heard it it sounded almost sunny, but now it makes me think how crazy life is. Remember those you lost and who got lost on the way

You wrote a song about my sister on your tape
And called it Section.80
The message resembled "Brenda's Got a Baby"
What's crazy was I was hearin' about it
But doubted your ignorance
How could you ever just put her on blast and shit?
Judgin' her past and shit?
Well, it's completely my future
Her nigga behind me right now askin' for ass and shit
And I'ma need that forty dollars
Even if I got to fuck, suck and swallow
In the parking lot, Gonzales Park, I'm followed
By a married man, and father of three
My titties bounce on the cadence of his tinklin' keys
Matter of fact, he my favorite 'cause he tip me with E's
He got a cousin named David and I seen him last week
This is the life of another girl damaged by the system
These foster homes, I run away and never do miss 'em
See, my hormones just run away and if I can get 'em
Back to where they used to be, then I'll probably be in the denim
Of a family gene that show women how to be woman
Or better yet, a leader, you need her to learn somethin'
Then you probably need to beat her, that's how I was taught
Three niggas in one room, first time I was tossed
And I'm exhausted, but fuck that "Sorry for your loss" shit
My sister died in vain, but what point are you tryna gain
If you can't fit the pumps I walk in?
I'll wait… Your rebuttal a little too late
And if you have a album date, just make sure I'm not in the song
'Cause I don't need the attention, bring enough of that on my own
And matter fact, did I mention that I physically feel great?
A doctor's approval is a waste of time, I know I'm straight
I'll probably live longer than you and never fade away
I'll never fade away, I'll never fade away, I know my fate
And I'm on the grind for this cake, I'ma get it or die tryin'
I'm eyein' every male gender with intentions of buyin'
You lyin' to these motherfuckers
Talkin' about you can help 'em with my story
You can help me if you sell this pussy for me, nigga
Don't ignore me, nigga, fuck your glory, nigga, you ain't shit...
[Chorus]
When the lights shut off and it's my turn
To settle down, my main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
I said when the lights shut off and it's my turn
To settle down, my main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
[Verse 3]
Sometimes I look in the mirror
And ask myself: Am I really scared of passin' away?
If it's today, I hope I hear a
Cry out from Heaven so loud it can water down a demon
With the Holy Ghost 'til it drown in the blood of Jesus
I wrote some raps that made sure that my lifeline reekin'
The scent of a reaper, ensurin' that my allegiance
With the other side may come soon, and if I'm doomed
May the womb of my mother be blessed for many moons
I suffer a lot
And every day that glass mirror get tougher to watch
I tie my stomach in knots
And I'm not sure why I'm infatuated with death
My imagination is surely an aggravation of threats
That can come about, ’cause the tongue is mighty powerful
And I can name a list of your favorites that probably vouch
Maybe 'cause I'm a dreamer and sleep is the cousin of death
Really stuck in the schema of wonderin' when I'ma rest
And you're right, your brother was a brother to me
And your sister's situation was the one that pulled me
In a direction to speak on somethin'
That's realer than the TV screen
By any means, wasn't tryin' to offend or come between
Her personal life, I was like "It need to be told"
Cursin' the life of twenty generations after her soul
Exactly what'd happen if I ain't continue rappin'
Or steady bein' distracted by money, drugs and 4-5's
I count lives, all on these songs
Look at the weak and cry, pray one day you'll be strong
Fightin' for your rights, even when you're wrong
And hope that at least one of you sing about me when I'm gone
Am I worth it? Did I put enough work in?
[Chorus]
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
I said when the lights shut off and it's my turn
To settle down, my main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
[Outro]
Promise that you'll sing about me forever
Promise that you'll sing about me for- ooooh
Promise that you'll sing about me forever
Promise that you'll sing about me for- ooooh
Promise that you'll sing about me forever
Promise that you'll sing about me for- ooooh

It's not like we hear this type of hip hop on the radio anyways. There's no way to put these poems to a trap song. It wouldn't even match some of rappers personas anyways. They're main concern is money, cars, weed, and bitches. I don't see that coming from these poems these brothers are trying to share, the struggle ain't nobody trying to hear. The truth, the real.......you tell me, just lend us an ear.
r0ck3t Does this instrumental sound like a trap song? No. And Kendrick is making it big, with his deep poems and raps.
I agree.
+Switch3rOrton trust me, nobody is going to want these lol
No one is gonna steal trash lyrics kids wrote in comments
One of the best instrumentals ever made
Dear Kendrick Lamar,
That's a pretty neat photograph of your car,
Maybe one day you'll grow up to be a star,
You are going to go far.

Still hits 5 years later...
bars is still fire 5 years later
Em been mad quiet since this dropped
If this instrumental gives you the chills. It hits you both the soul and heart. Cause you feel it
...And may the womb of my mother be blessed for many moons...
These are the kinds of beats that CZcams should disable the dislike bar for. This right here is too good to be fooled around wit.
i have some great news
This is like Low key one of my Favorite beats.. definitely can kick back to this
You know it’s good music when the instrumental touches your heart and soul
Clicked on this instrumental in my feed a while ago... Then i scrolled down and learned about the samples. Proof of how extremely dope pure-sample-based beats can get. The greatest music is already made and rearranging the classics can make such great beats see the light of the day.. Respect!
Sometimes I look in the mirror
And ask myself: Am I really scared of passin' away?
If it's today, I hope I hear a
Cry out from Heaven so loud it can water down a demon
With the Holy Ghost 'til it drown in the blood of Jesus
I wrote some raps that made sure that my lifeline reekin'
The scent of a reaper, ensurin' that my allegiance
With the other side may come soon, and if I'm doomed
May the womb of my mother be blessed for many moons
I suffer a lot
And every day that glass mirror get tougher to watch
I tie my stomach in knots
And I'm not sure why I'm infatuated with death
My imagination is surely an aggravation of threats
That can come about, ’cause the tongue is mighty powerful
And I can name a list of your favorites that probably vouch
Maybe 'cause I'm a dreamer and sleep is the cousin of death
Really stuck in the schema of wonderin' when I'ma rest
And you're right, your brother was a brother to me
And your sister's situation was the one that pulled me
In a direction to speak on somethin'
That's realer than the TV screen
By any means, wasn't tryin' to offend or come between
Her personal life, I was like "It need to be told"
Cursin' the life of twenty generations after her soul
Exactly what'd happen if I ain't continue rappin'
Or steady bein' distracted by money, drugs and 4-5's
I count lives, all on these songs
Look at the weak and cry, pray one day you'll be strong
Fightin' for your rights, even when you're wrong
And hope that at least one of you sing about me when I'm gone
Am I worth it? Did I put enough work in?
shut the fuck up
@@godamonggoldfish8984 Literally the lyrics to the actual song
GodAmongGoldfish why? lmao
Probably Blue okay? we can google lyrics if we want to see it
@@godamonggoldfish8984 always gotta be that one rude nigga in the comments smh
My intuition is
Reinvention - kie
Reinvention within my head
Opening up newer gates
God is 0guiding me to have stronger faith
But first I need to change my mental state
reciprocate the demons in my head
Driving the merc but first you gotta remove the curse
We're all one Tryna be loved
Using colours to cover up my hurt
Going deep within my feelings I sink
Ppl be thinkin
Ppl be seeking
Different things,
I wanna rise above from the pain
I wanna express myself without having hate
beauty in her eyes shows the pain from her darker nights
Let's just rise above
embrace the curve
Open up your arms to those ppl who still have hate
Rumours going around like plates passing around
Just tryna stay on the ground
Are you consumed by the crown
Who are you gonna surround yourself with, you are who you mix with
I don't brag about getting laid
Send help she said before fades
Let's just communicate
Walking your path,
nobody said it won't be tough
Constant swipe of never ending lies
Water your mind, you're saving your time
Stop asking her, will ever you be mine
Take the time, to improve what's not fine
Stop the rewind
What's the point of suffering your mind
I get it she's a nine
But is she really that divine
gotta refine your design
what are u tryna fix
Inhaling so many different kind of vicks
Expressing yourself doesn't mean that you're weak
Just means you're embracing what cannot be fixed
Storytelling in disguise
Soreading love like it's a franchise
Stop depending on people when you're sad
Don't be mad
I'm not done yet
Tryna act bold but lowkey afraid of the unknown
Don't call me back, I ain't gonna pick up my phone
Stop telling me that you're alone
You're gonna leave earth with a single soul
You've been acting pretty cold
I've been feeling pretty low
Why can't we just go with the flow
Tryna give out my love but bailing when the path is so blur
Tryna stay in love
but this is making me deter
when can we ever concur
good days are gonna occur
Just stop drinking that liquor
That shit will make u suffer
Don't stay on the same spot
Move on from the battles that you've once fought
Don't let your sexual drive interfere with your inner life
When time is right
Go full out that night
We gotta stop this fight
Have a piece of my mind
honesty over everything
It's not the things we say but the way we portray
hey everyone here's my freestyle i'm an up and coming rapper anyway hope you enjoy:
[Chorus]
When the lights shut off and it's my turn
To settle down, my main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
I said when the lights shut off and it's my turn
To settle down, my main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning and figured I'd call you
In case I'm not here tomorrow
I'm hopin' that I can borrow
A peace of mind, I'm behind on what's really important
My mind is really distorted
I find nothing but trouble in my life
I'm fortunate you believe in a dream
This orphanage we call a ghetto is quite a routine
And last night was just another distraction
Or a reaction of what we consider madness
I know exactly what happened
You ran outside when you heard my brother cry for help
Held him like a newborn baby and made him feel
Like everything was alright in a fight he tried to put up
But the type of bullet that stuck
Had went against his will, that's blood spilled on your hands
My plan's rather vindictive
Everybody's a victim in my eyes
When I ride it's a murderous rhythm
And outside became pitch black
A demon glued to my back, whispering "Get 'em!"
I got 'em and I ain't give a fuck
That same mentality I told my brother not to duck
In actuality it's a trip how we trip off of colors
I wonder if I'll ever discover a passion like you and recover
The life that I knew as a youngin
In pajamas and dun-ta-duns
When thunder comes it rains cats and dogs dumb
Niggas like me never prosper
Prognosis of a problem child, I'm proud and well-devoted
This Piru shit been in me forever
So forever I'ma push it, wherever, whenever
And I love you 'cause you love my brother like you did
Just promise me you'll tell this story when you make it big
And if I die before your album drop, I hope- [Gunshots]
[Chorus]
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
I said when the lights shut off and it's my turn
To settle down, my main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
[Verse 2]
You wrote a song about my sister on your tape
And called it Section.80
The message resembled "Brenda's Got a Baby"
What's crazy was I was hearin' about it
But doubted your ignorance
How could you ever just put her on blast and shit?
Judgin' her past and shit?
Well, it's completely my future
Her nigga behind me right now askin' for ass and shit
And I'ma need that forty dollars
Even if I got to fuck, suck and swallow
In the parking lot, Gonzales Park, I'm followed
By a married man, and father of three
My titties bounce on the cadence of his tinklin' keys
Matter of fact, he my favorite 'cause he tip me with E's
He got a cousin named David and I seen him last week
This is the life of another girl damaged by the system
These foster homes, I run away and never do miss 'em
See, my hormones just run away and if I can get 'em
Back to where they used to be, then I'll probably be in the denim
Of a family gene that show women how to be woman
Or better yet, a leader, you need her to learn somethin'
Then you probably need to beat her, that's how I was taught
Three niggas in one room, first time I was tossed
And I'm exhausted, but fuck that "Sorry for your loss" shit
My sister died in vain, but what point are you tryna gain
If you can't fit the pumps I walk in?
I'll wait… Your rebuttal a little too late
And if you have a album date, just make sure I'm not in the song
'Cause I don't need the attention, bring enough of that on my own
And matter fact, did I mention that I physically feel great?
A doctor's approval is a waste of time, I know I'm straight
I'll probably live longer than you and never fade away
I'll never fade away, I'll never fade away, I know my fate
And I'm on the grind for this cake, I'ma get it or die tryin'
I'm eyein' every male gender with intentions of buyin'
You lyin' to these motherfuckers
Talkin' about you can help 'em with my story
You can help me if you sell this pussy for me, nigga
Don't ignore me, nigga, fuck your glory, nigga, you ain't shit...
[Chorus]
When the lights shut off and it's my turn
To settle down, my main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
I said when the lights shut off and it's my turn
To settle down, my main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me

BRO THATS REALLY GOOD OMG GOOD JOB U SHOULD RELEASE IT SHIT
JK I know it’s Kendrick’s song
Hey, that's just Kendrick's original song. This guy's a phony! A great big phony!
When you think about me, are they positive/
Can I think back on the days that we had time to live/
And replay the memories where it was love to give/
And while I think back on it all it feels so counterfeit/
Illusions of Grandeur that I'm encountering/
A road trip down memory lane you could count me in/
Will this adventure be everything that I doubt it is/
Or will I end up on a path that leaves me powerless/
Was I really there or was it all imagination/
I can think of feels but cannot fathom their creation/
Counting down the hours can't connect the days of waiting/
And when I sit and reminisce can't stand to weigh my patience/
But these thoughts will make me famous/
Pouring out my brain so that these verses can be dated/
But as I sit in sickness does it mask my words in tainted/
Visions or is it true that my passion's too contagious/
Try to skip those days in Vegas,/
The land of distant memories and dreams of those who've wasted/
Dolla after dolla just to get their mindstream faded/
But in this day and age is it wrong of me to blame em/
I'll pop the pill but won't swallow/
So much on mind but the rest of me hollow/
Don't trust my own decisions put my faith into a bottle/
Fail this test of life even though I know that a lot will/
Passing up experience to build the love I fondle/
Seen too many deaths, off to buy another laurel/
If I had only hope to borrow/
Would it be my life dream to drown down all my sorrows/
Buy a round of shots and try to usher in tomorrow/
It's a sad reality such a merry dream we follow/
xCykel nice
yo. i gotta use this
Julian Brito I guess😂. i honestly don't think I have the voice for rap so i usually just write anyway
Forghetto True. I initially did it to see if any of them were even decent tbh haha. Just kinda wanted to see how other people viewed what I wrote.
Forghetto Definitely. You don't realize how much this honestly means to me haha. I'm gonna definitely try to start at least recording personal raps and working from there bro. Thanks for the feedback from the bottom of my heart
Such a beautiful beat man… literally brings tears to my eyes..
I LOVE THIS JAM.THANK YOU KENDRICK AND DRE FOR THIS GREAT SONG...
those strings make me cry like a bitch every time
I'be been waiting too damn long for this instrumental. Thank God.
czcams.com/video/IkM1PTDnQKk/video.html
The memories I have to this makes me cry. Better times I swear
Love how he just simply sampled maybe tomorrow by grant green, which is also my favorite track from grant green. Great jazz guitarist
Beat so pretty I cried tears of joy
Woke up with an eary feeling
Thoughts are racing
My Head is killing
Body shaking
From wind that’s chilling
Got me waiting patient for buses filled with children
Not used to laughing so Music blasting while staring out the window
Not from lack of havin but Lack of passion besides cash and rappin
Told me stick to school
So Stuck to Fashion
Used to bending rules
I can never imagine
9-5 for the rest of my life
Sitting Stuck in traffic
Bitchin where’s my casket
Missing times that’s past us
Cause nowadays it’s plastic
And Holliday’s the saddest
All in my ways called habits
Like sleeping all day on mattress
Or trying to chase the baddest
Or contemplate my status
Can’t get away from attics
Look around we all surrounded
By a bunch of fiends who were meant to fly but staying grounded
Minds clouded in dopamines
Thinking hopeless dreams
Now is how it’s sounding
The direction I’m headed
Most def
A legend no question
Not really used to this beggin
But can you lead me to heaven
I got this message embedded
To only love from a distance
That’s why my love for you’s hidden
I miss the times that we shared and i miss times that we didn’t
Said you’d always be there but then you went independent
Left me to deal with the Pressure
Of success and the failure
Theres a Fine line between both
No more stories of hope
Just our lungs filled with smoke
Now On a different approach
To hit the gas and lets go
No looking back or be broke
In fact I’m actually both
Stuck in the past and can’t cope
I Relapse in these cycles
While Times are getting rough
I gotta skim through the Bible
Cause the Devil ain’t giving up
Alex Pitts that goes hard 🤯
Good shit

Vanityz what song?
I forgot the name but it was by bill withers

lovely day by Bill weathers, yea I can here it now!
This feels like you're driving on a winter night. You see some lights, decorations, etc. It's just so calming.
wait til you find out what the songs actually about
@@MyGamefreak0 i think it was about his life
This has always been a rainy day song for me. Whenever it rains I put this on. I think 4 your eyez only (the song) by J. Cole is more winter esque if you want a samidot equivalent.
It's 2020. I'm just hearing this for the 1st time & DAMN.
THIS TRACK IS SOO SICK.
I LOVE IT
I have goosebumps everytime I listen to this song
Rip wero. I think about you with this beat. I know you would've loved it.
Damn, sorry for your loss man.
Fookie Bookie thank you
One love
Damn thats sad. Sorry for your loss (2019)
@@esmo915 sorry for your loss. I lost an uncle not too long after i wrote a college presentation describing the storytelling aspects of this song, one of the last projects i completed before graduating college. And all that time that led up to that moment was for him cuz he never graduated. He was like a father, and just happy he got to see me graduate before his untimely passing. Sad thinking about as this beat plays but it puts me at peace. Sorry, just thought id share. This beats so lovely.
The greatest artist have given you joy from the pain they have experienced
They have given you an abstract image
of the feelings that they feel is vivid
They create characters and actors that are larger than life
They are small, bitter and timid
They can only channel the things that they cannot admit
To themselves, they translate seamlessly through another person soul
They can only emit, but cannot absorb the light in their deep dark hole
People like Hemmingway, Shakespeare and others can only know
This burden, I am burdened
And saddened by this never changing pattern
If I cannot express this passion
I feel there is something in my life that I am lacking
I am drawn to pain
I am drawn to people believing that I am insane
If your brain believes it is crazed what’s to stop it from thinking that way
The addictions just allow this addiction to live a life of fiction
While someone else has to bare living his life in omission
Sometimes I wonder if I am blessed
My mom believes in God a 110%
I think she loves Him more than me
I don’t blame her though, I know where she is coming from
She believes He completely believes in me
Even if I don’t believe in myself
He will always help me if I am need
I’ve been seeing images of a clown
A tear streaming down its face
Removing the paint as it amplifies his pain
But you just see a small glimpse of his skin
I wonder if that has meaning
The crooked smile looks broken
But the fact that he is trying
Atleast justifies that in a panchromatic portrait
You can still see the bright sight
I cannot explain how good the beat is
Lupe just freestyled over this beat. It was 🔥
This was the best 7 minutes and 11 seconds of my life :D
Coming from the light realm, flight form is inner being/
psychedelic ciphers ignite waves and fly seeing/
high fly wi fi as ravens watch time fly/
serenades of stars as we watch riders on the night sky/
memories lost as love leaves begin to fall/
veins in the leaves as smoke and sin covers all/
can't feel my face again sinning in dream/
she haunts all memories as a face smiles with a scream/
scene ends cinematic watching time go serene/
just another memory in a museum of broken dreams/
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
thats's deep... yet, very dark tho!!!

ChampionGold that was the worst rap verses i ever seen, hope you dont get hiphop back we coolxD
I spilled my emotions out on a paper with pen to this beat for a girl I have an insane crush on (she knows I have a crush on her) everybody please wish me luck, I'mma spit it to her next time we chill ...
you got it.
I believe in u
you gone crash and burn my man. but dont let that kill you so to speak
brother. I'm going to be as honest as possible right now. What you're doing may seem like some Get Rich or Die Tryin' shit, but it will not work. Girls will only like that shit if it's from who's successful in music already. You're being a little too emotional, and if there's something that girls absolutely do not want, it's being too emotional.
That being said -- good luck.
dont be afag just let her read it
Contains a sample from Use Me by Bill Withers courtesy of Sussex Records and Contains a sample from Maybe Tomorrow by Grant Green courtesy of Blue Note Records.
this beat remind me of everything good in life
Everytime I hear this I think about how I hate my life and in the future I'll think back on how good life was

Hell yeah
Some beats take immense talent to touch, this is one of them
i see a life evolving, lookin at my daughter peekin, eye's slightly open, when she really should be sleeping/ mind frozen/ something's stopping my mouth from speaking/ hearin the words Da Da/ softly spoken wit arms reaching / in a motion for me to hold her in total freedom/ who needs a reason for feeling this kind a whole completion/ I know my roll is teaching/ i hope we grow & deepen/ to be the father figure she can put her soul belief in/
and if she sing about me it will be a song of seasons.Q

With my story, you can help me if you sell this pussy for me, nigga
Don't ignore me, nigga, fuck your glory, nigga...
When the lights shut off
And it's my turn to settle down
My main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
I said when the lights shut off
And it's my turn to settle down
My main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
Sometimes I look in a mirror and ask myself:
Am I really scared of passing away? If it's today, I hope I hear a
Cry out from heaven so loud it can water down a demon
With the holy ghost 'til it drown in the blood of Jesus
I wrote some raps that make sure that my lifeline
Reeking the scent of a reaper, ensuring that my allegiance
With the other side may come soon, and if I'm doomed
May the womb help my mother be blessed for many moons
I suffer a lot, and every day the glass mirror
Get tougher to watch; I tie my stomach in knots
And I'm not sure why I'm infatuated with death
My imagination is surely an aggravation of threats
That can come about, 'cause the tongue is mighty powerful
And I can name a list of your favorites that probably vouch
Maybe 'cause I'm a dreamer and sleep is the cousin of death
Really stuck in the schema of wondering when I'mma rest
And you're right, your brother was a brother to me
And your sister's situation was the one that pulled me
In a direction to speak of something that's realer than the TV screen
By any means, wasn't trying to offend or come between
Her personal life, I was like, "It need to be told"
Cursing the life of twenty generations after her soul
Exactly what'd happen if I ain't continued rappin'
Or steady being distracted by money drugs and four-
Fives, I count lives all on these songs
Look at the weak and cry, pray one day, you'll be strong
Fighting for your rights even when you're wrong
And hope that at least one of you sing about me when I'm gone
Am I worth it?
Did I put enough work in?
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
I said when the lights shut off
And it's my turn to settle down
My main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
(Promise that you'll sing about me forever
Promise that you'll sing about me for-ooooh)
Promise that you'll sing about me forever
Promise that you'll sing about me for-ooooh
Promise that you'll sing about me forever
Promise that you'll sing about me for-ooooh
"Nigga, the homie's brother-- nigga, right here, he gone, my nigga, he gone!"
"Nigga-- they just killed the homie's brother, my nigga. We right here on the block, my nigga."
"Al- alright, nigga-- nigga just come-- alright, alright, just call me back, man, just call me back."
(Hangs up)
"Arghh... *fuck!*
...So what we gon' do, my niggas? What we gon' do?"
"Bro, we can go back right now, my nigga. Like... nigga, I don't give a FUCK, my nigga. We can go back right now.*"
"Fuck! I'm tired of this shit! I'm tired of fuckin' runnin', I'm tired of this shit! My brother, homie!"
Tired of running, tired of hunting
My own kind but retiring nothing
Tires are steady screeching, the driver is rubbing
Hands on the wheel, who said we wasn't
Dying of thirst, dying of thirst, dying of thirst
Dope on the corner, look at the coroner
Daughter is dead, mother is mournin' her
Strayed bullets, AK bullets
Resuscitation was waiting patiently but they couldn't
Bring her back, who got the footage?
Channel 9, cameras is looking
It's hard to channel your energy when you know you're crooked
Banana clip, split his banana pudding
I'm like Tre, that's Cuba Gooding
I know I'm good at
Dying of thirst, dying of thirst, dying of thirst
How many sins? I'm running out
How many sins? I lost count
Dreams of balling like Spalding
But only shotty bounce
The reaper calling, I'm cottonmouth
Money is power (money is power)
Yours is ours (yours is ours)
Lay with a snitch, die with a coward
Hope we get rich, hope we can tower
Over the city with vanity with the music louder
The same song, a black flower
I'll show you how to dye your thirst, dye your thirst, dye your thirst
What are we doing? Who are we fooling?
Hell is hot, fire is proven
To burn for eternity, return of the student
That never learned how to live righteous but how to shoot it
Tired of running, choirs is hummin'
Tell us to visit, we lying 'bout comin'
Now back to business, loading the guns in
Back of the Buick, your hood is feuding, and the beef is bubblin'
It's no discussion
Hereditary, all of my cousins
Dying of thirst, dying of thirst, dying of thirst
Too many sins, I'm running out
Somebody send me a well for the drought
See, all I know, is taking notes
On taking this life for granted, granted, if he provoke
My best days, are stress days
(Lord, forgive me for all my sins for I not know...)
My best days, are stress days
Say "Fuck the world, " my sex slave
Money, pussy and greed; what's my next crave
Whatever it is, know it's my next grave
Tired of running, tired of running
Tired of tumbling, tired of running
Tired of tumbling
Back once my momma say
"See a pastor, give me a promise
What if today was the rapture, and you completely tarnished
The truth will set you free, so to me be completely honest
You dying of thirst, you dying of thirst
So hop in that water, and pray that it works"
Fuck! I'm tired of this shit! I'm tired of fuckin' runnin', I'm tired of this shit! That's my brother, homie!
("Young man, come talk to me! Is that what I think that is?)
I know that's not what I think that is
Why are you so angry? See you young men are dying of thirst
Do you know what that means? That means you need water, holy water
You need to be baptized, with the spirit of The Lord
Do you want to receive God as your personal savior?
Okay, repeat after me
Lord God, I come to you a sinner
(Lord God, I come to you a sinner)
And I humbly repent for my sins"
(And I humbly repent for my sins)
I believe that Jesus is Lord
(I believe that Jesus is Lord)
I believe you raised him from the dead
(I believe you raised him from the dead)
I

Smh these amateurs won’t be making dollars they be looking for cents.
Thinking they be ballers but still cant pay rents.
Why holler down here? Y’all need better friends
I drive randomly to this song in the rain after it's calmed down a wee bit & the sun is semi-out with that shine on the street. Yeah, this song on repeat in times like that. Try it.
just amazing beat..
Sing about Amadou Diallo, Kendrick Johnson, Trayvon Martin, Tamir Rice, Alton Sterling, Sandra Bland, Freddie Gray, Michael Brown, Eric Garner, Philande Castille, Walter Scott, Rekia Boyd, Tarika Wilson, John Crawford, Terence Crutcher, and Charles Kinsey.
Say grace like it's my last supper, celebrate emancipation from sufferin like Passover reminiscin over past lovers,
Crashed hummers, a wreckage not many escape from without scratches like records from the decks of well respected disc jockeys
This rocky, road corrupted by the concept of havin my pockets swole now it’s rock and roll stringing my own tune
So I’m in tune, take a sound bite when I consume, airwaves saturated like monsoons when I engage in foreplay of your logic cycle
That’s psycho logic, scientific prolific indefinite exquisite sea of expression Pacific flow is in depth. Promise they sing about me…forever.
If you actually pay attention he actually sampled OutKast’s So Fresh, So Clean
He sampled the 808s which is pretty cool
Gorgeous!!
I play this instrumental all the time just to relax my mind
Reminds me of the good old times When I used to play GTA 5 beautiful Hood memories
Gets you in the feels
This sounds like something you'd hear off the weather channel...So chill and easy to relax to. Makes you feel good and you just sit there and ponder...Like you're on a different planet
