Kendrick Lamar - Kendrick Lamar's Interlude lyrics

[Produced by Terrace Martin] [Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar] 24/7, 365, motherf**er I'm still right on time Oh you thought you had me all figured out? Take it from the horses mouth, you'll never understand me I told you, my Plan B is to win your hearts before we win a Grammy These Days ain't sh** changed Different toilet, same sh**... and I drank a whole gallon of laxatives by accident just to sh** on you has-beens Had it been for my past tense, I wouldn't be rapping See these streets made me, broke me down Built me up, drove me crazy Made me hungry, made you hate me, but f** love It don't make dollars, it don't make sense n***a By the way, that's DJ Quik n***a Respect or check it These Days, I'm a little more focused cause y'all cracked the door and I kicked it open, yellin' get the f** down or I will shoot I told you (*gunshots*) not to motherf**in' move! Be another example, I'll take the whole industry hostage if I have to I'll sabotage this game, a good kid? Yeah that's only in my mama's eyes I seen a dead body at five and that sh** made me traumatized So These Days, a little blood on my hands ain't nothing compared To hopping out a minivan, with a mini 22 3's and the homie TuTu And two more YGs Oh nobody got time for that! These Days it's only time for rap! So Herbert Anthony Stevens You make or break bread before we break even Before they broke our records we broke records and wrote pieces, of history So These Days? These accolades that's meant for we? It's only truth that this sh** was meant to be T.D.E [Hook Ab-Soul & JaVonte:] Life's still a Traffic Jam (Life is still a Traffic Jam) Life's still a Traffic Jam (Life is still a Traffic Jam) Life's still a Traffic Jam (Life is still a Traffic Jam) Life's still a Traffic Jam (Ready to go) Life's still a Traffic Jam (Still ready to go) Life's still a Traffic Jam (Still ready to go) Life's still a Traffic Jam Life's still a Traffic Jam... [Verse 2: Ab-Soul] sh**... what more did you expect? HiiiPower For the most part, we go hard for the respect I'm obviously ominous to my competition and if I ain't better than Kendrick than nobody is then! We shared our life with you Shared our light with you even in the darkest of hours In hopes that one day, just maybe, one day the world'll be ours Ha, and now they look up to us like towers For rhyming like we had super powers They should've never let us in these offices... Knowing good and God-damn well how well we've been ducking officers Laughing at the scraps they offered us in the past And now we toast champagne to the thirst we never had! I had my ups and downs, but I always left right Rest In Peace Alori Joh... TopDawg for life! And oh yeah... SOUL! [Interlude] I watch that fire that we're gathered around and see that it burns similar to the fire that is inside you...
