歌词
What's your life about Enlighten me
Is you gon' live on your knees or die on your feet
There's fire in the street fire in the swisher
Fire in between the two legs of your lil' sister
Just get a sip of this elixir
Before they crop us out the picture
I've never seen a crop circle
But I've cops circle the block I puff squares
But I swear one day I'ma stop my nerves itch
On the brink of my career
While my peers struggle for employment
Can you hear these screams
(Uncle Sam ain't no killing me)
One two three four grams and a fifth of Hennessy
A bad bitch f**k the penitentiary
Section 80's babies blame Ronald Reagan
We raising hell
Lord forbid
The homie got wet so we tryna soak it in
The president is black but you can't vote for skin
You vote for the better man
Come to our show you can see the diversity
Unify the people they gon' peep it universally
We might not change the world
But we gon' manipulate it
I hope you participating
Aiyyo Dot won't you let these cats know
We knew we'd be here like back in '04
Started HiiiPoWeR
'Cause our generation needed a generator
And the system made to disintegrate us
And all we do is assist 'em
We're not victors we're victims
The bigger picture isn't developed yet
Like what if kids were celibate
Or what is Tammy came across a real man
Who didn't play games like chil-dren
My nigga cheated on his girlfriend
With his girlfriend's girlfriend let the world end
And everybody tripping off twenty-twelve
And the extraterrestrial presence as well
(Odd Future's aight) but our future's not
That martial law shit drop we gon' all get got
So keep that question mark on your face
Eat your fast-food use your fluoride toothpaste
Hide your feelings from the public
Work your lil' nine-to-five
Don't forget to pay your tithes
And thank God you alive (HiiiPoWeR)
And on another note
We focussed like the Hubble Telescope 'Soul
Life is a traffic jam (life is a traffic jam)
Life is a traffic jam
Life is a traffic jam
Life is a traffic jam
Life is a traffic jam (ready to go)
Life is a traffic jam (ready to go)
Life is a traffic jam (ready to go)
Life is a traffic jam
Life is a traffic jam
I wrote this because I was ordered to
People say I speak for generation Y
Why lie I do
Section 80 your son will play me if radio won't
Daughters that just turned one
To twenty-one listen to Kendrick
For instance
What's your life about Enlighten me
Is you gon' live on your knees or die on your feet
Take out that student loan
And pay off your college degree
And do exactly what you see on TV
True story
Hmm can you repeat that for me 'Soul
What's your life about Enlighten me
Is you gon' live on your knees or die on your feet
Is you gon' plead the fifth or sound the horn
The time is now my child come on
See a lot of y'all don't understand Kendrick Lamar
Because you wonder how I could talk about
Money hoes clothes God and history
All in the same sentence
You know what all them things have in common
Only half of the truth if you tell it
See I spent twenty-three years
On this earth searching for answers
Till one day I realised I had to come up with my own
I'm not on the outside looking in
I'm not on inside looking out
I'm in the dead f**king centre looking around
You ever seen a newborn baby kill a grown man
That's an analogy for the way the world make me react
My innocence been dead
So the next time I talk about
Money hoes clothes God and history
All in the same sentence
Just know I meant it and you felt it
Cause you too are searching for answers
I'm not the next pop star
I'm not the next socially aware rapper
I am a human motherf**king
Being over dope ass instrumentation
Kendrick Lamar
Now f**k 'em up Terrace
('Soul )
I watch this fire that we're gathered around
And see that it burns similar
To the fire that burns inside you
Section 80 Section 80 babies
A generation of bliss and disobedience
No they can't control us no they can't control you
No they can't control us but we control each other
We build our own world
If you don't leave with nothing else tonight
You will leave with knowing yourself
You will leave knowing you represent
Something that's bigger than all of us
Or our family
Heart honor and represent
This is you this is me and we are HiiiPoWeR
