Pray for Me - Kendrick Lamar (肯德里克·拉马尔)
Got the ghetto in my heart every time that I spit it
Walk it like I talk it this is how I'm living
Still on the block dwelling with my niggas
We don't got no job selling d**e be our business
Lord be my witness trying to get a million
Flushing everything if they run inside my building
Niggas steady snitching
B**ches steady riffing
Raffing until I start clapping I'm itching
I'm so Cal
Cals under my white tee when I walk out
Niggas be hating I don't trust smiles
Me and Ransom representing the same struggle
In the gutter it's all about money and muscle
Feds don't want to see us free
They got us under surveillance like TMZ yeah
It's Jay Rock I be these streets
I promise to keep it real 'til I D-I-E yeah
I was on the block ducking running from cops
On the corner slanging the rock
(Mama she used to pray for me)
Now I'm on top pulling up in the drop
Saying peace to hip-hop (Cause it made a way for me)
I struggled way before I got on
So I gotta put my struggle in song
(I guess this was my destiny)
Came a long way I'm here to stay
We all came from the gutter
Say we ball free living by
The name of my brother
Put the cane in the cubbard
Childhood scars from the pain that we suffered
Mom dukes always tried to raise us above it
Pop dukes always tried to claim that he loved us
Now we blaming each other
Got my brain from my mother
You can't judge a book by
The grain of its cover
Or the name or the color
I sold drugs to my ni**a Pop
So you know the devil's on my
Side when I hit the block
So you shouldn't be surprised when I get the guap
Flip the rock watch the water bubble when it hit the pot
A fiend died last night time
To switch the tops
If you don't know what time
It is you better fix your clock
Now we're not even surprised
When the pistol pop
We don't even move know the
Rules never snitch to cops
I just spent my whole life
Trying to make it out
Dreaming of a check in a Lex
Throwing paper out
They're trying to break the house
Got to go the safest route
Not a blind date but these apes
Trying to take me out
I used to be a nobody from the projects
Now my projects got me flyer than a cockpit
I used to cop bricks loading up Glock clips
Now I'm in the drop picks
Talking about stock tips
Okay maybe I'm exaggerating
I ain't filthy rich but I got imagination
It's my year to eat and I got a platter waiting
Sharks in the water I sort of got them salivating
I'm living a life considered a price
My past years could've had me up in prison for life
I am the tip of the ice division of christ
This duffle bag red ni**a
Just admit it I'm nice (and um )
I was on the block ducking running from cops
On the corner slanging the rock (Mama she used to pray for me)
Now I'm on top pulling up in the drop
Saying peace to hip-hop (Cause it made a way for me)
I struggled way before I got on
So I gotta put my struggle in song (I guess this was my destiny)
Came a long way I'm here to stay
