Kendrick Lamar - Heroin lyrics

[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar] It was I witnessing poverty Burning bullets allowing these walls breaking Devour these laws trying to empower me I thought I knew the reason you grew to love sour [?] Smoking like locomotive your focus was hourly And then you caught me your pity party [?] me Shower me with the will that never dried I tell you put your worries and friendly doubts to the side I doubt that you listen, it’s stuck in your system I tried She’s been miserable, she’s been living in prison Soaking up life’s reality this is the visual Baby daddy a light build blade walking with highheel Paid stalking that avenue, never knew how the light feel, I Got a plane got a plan for ya I just just might hold a couple bands for ya And leave this message in the sand for ya Tell me you’re ready to change She said naw n***a it’s part of the game Just like Heroin [Chorus: Lance Skiiiwalker] Streets don’t fail me now need you right on time Say, right on time Please stay paced and the ground need you right on time Say, you right on time Streets don’t fail me now need you right on time Say, you right on time God please lift the smile need you right on time Say, right on time [Post-Chorus: SZA] Runaway from the fire, I fly down hill Lay your head over this side, now You keep pain on the inside, now Whats been eating you, who’s been needing you You been keeping it down, and You been taking me higher and higher [Verse 2: Punch] Functioning addict, I’m high off her pa**ion Chasing history’s baddest, I mastered this apparatus Rackin’ my brain, I’m scared of being average Going against the grain just tryna maintain my savage Foolish of her to try to play towards my vanity And foolish of me to let her do it, I love calamity I love a challenge, naw I love the fantasy And this is high stakes I risk it all for a pair of snakes Connect the dot n***a this is fate I’m talking predestination I’m talking blind dedication Plan B is contraception we didn’t make it Sexercise a little bit of patience The love of the rush is us Im addicted to violence, helicopters and sirens Blood pressure is skying, n***a I’m trying I never felt more alive than I felt dying Heroin [Chorus: Lance Skiiiwalker] Streets don’t fail me now need you right on time Say, right on time Please stay paced and the ground need you right on time Say, you right on time Streets don’t fail me now need you right on time Say, you right on time God please lift the smile need you right on time Say, right on time [Post-Chorus 2: Isaiah Rashad & SZA] I heard you spending all your time baby And you could never get a dime baby At least a n***a got a dime baby It’s hard to come home It’s hard to come home It’s hard to come home baby [Verse 3: Jay Rock & Kendrick] She my gift and my curse, she really quenching my thirst Baby my vice, she got me driving with no headlights (Is that right?)
