Kendrick Lamar - Compton Life lyrics

(Hook) x2 Chevy lights, women you like Husslin' nights, homie that's Compton life Rollin' dice, gangsta rights Hood advice, homie that's Compton life (Verse 1) I'm back at it again My city back at it with ‘em Back against the wall K got that tryin' the pin But they can f** with that pen The sh** I write is brighter than blue gems You better stay in the gym Exercise your mind till it's strong enough To f** with mine Stick to my roots like black tard and m I'm black with thoughts of Einstein sponsored links One word describing him, genius What you know about the city I'm living With the souls of the dead it's livin You don't know about our living conditions We live righteously, we can't give a f** about your opinion But it's more than just weed and women, gangsters , husslers Bullet collisions, players , pimps Who can envision the place where I reside Where Eazy was pitching, Dre was 6'4 lifting NWA had mansion, quick at the turn tables Mixin the first ones to say f** the system I'm tryin to tell you about (Hook) x2 Chevy lights, women you like Husslin' nights, homie that's Compton life Rollin' dice, gangsta rights Hood advice, homie that's Compton life (Verse 2) His own street like concrete Would best describe fit his gutter But see I'm what's underneath A young gun but not like your young Chris and Eve I'm from the land of organized crime Disorderly peace ‘Cause nowadays n***as hussle when they order their peace And worship their gun the same as their religious beliefs The Compton shares can't forget the police ‘Cause in the hood tellin pigs no more It be the mark of the beast And their main aim is just the talk of the streets But when you see ‘em please be quick on your feet That they go , watch em!? Had you for road k** just like a possum You could contain ‘em But there's no way that you could stop ‘em n***as plant their seeds to be gangstas Hoping one day they blossom The same time, hope the system don't lock ‘em ‘Cause Compton raise n***as and b**hes we barely got ‘em Unless you talk about the one with the attitude problem From Rose crest to central, Compton's Anthemia We back that's for my people it's official (Hook) x2 Chevy lights, women you like Husslin' nights, homie that's Compton life Rollin' dice, gangsta rights Hood advice, homie that's Compton life (Verse 3) I don't know if he new around here Ye it's good to know somebody if you're new around here ‘Cause it ain't too safe for you to cruise around here n***as stick to your a** like glue around here Take New Jersey and fit it sh** whatever you don't care It ain't no magic trick if they make your sh** disappear The outcome is severe, and some of this casket will last a day But I'm amazed 'cause the young boy been here for years I seen n***as shed blood blood tears Hope you not try to plan for the future n***as will mute you Had your door in the morning wake you up like roosters Introduce you to rugers Clock you in like Tap Judah A nightmare on my street, Fred Krueger where I live Minus the actress and the producers Even adolenscence will shoot you over that paper We get vapors like Biz Markie but still I'm used to From Rose crest to central, Compton's Anthemia We back that's for my people it's official (Hook) x2 Chevy lights, women you like Husslin' nights, homie that's Compton life Rollin' dice, gangsta rights Hood advice, homie that's Compton life
