Kendrick Lamar - Cut You Off (To Grow Closer) lyrics

[Produced by Tae Beast] [Intro] Ali, you thirsty on Twitter! You boo-boo, you T'd, you turned down, you thirsty, you boo-boo! [Verse 1] Uh, I'm tryna learn something new I'm tryna find myself, I'm searching deep for Kendrick Lamar I read about Napoleon Hill and try to know God They say he the key to my blessings, and if I speak the good Into existence, that instant my dreams will unlock Money flow like water, I'll just wait at the dock And by the way I'mma start, finding more light to shed Like a small garage in your backyard I'm back chilling with a friend of mine, she mighty fine But I notice that her heart resides next to bitterness Always hollering who she don't like and who she kick it with Who she wanna fight, who wearing a weave Who Dooney and Bourke bag is fake, who holding the keys To the car she drove last year or who f**ing on who And who need a pap smear, getting on my nerves But before your negative energy curve, b**h I'mma cut you off [Hook] Cause everytime you come around, you be hollering that Whoop-de-whoop, blah-zay-blah, he say, she say Oh my God, shut the f** up... ho Everytime you come around, you be hollering that Whoop-de-whoop, blah-zay-blah, he say, she say [Verse 2] Uhh, I'm tryna learn something new I'm tryna surround myself with people that inspire me Or at least inquire similar desires To do what it T-A-K-E just to reach the T-O-P I'm talking ideas, motivation It's more than making, enemies, my n***a Oh, that's not your memo? Then tell me why you constantly stressing On how you well connected like centipedes, my n***a I function with you and you flaunt your pistol Every second tell me how you pressed 'em at the Monte Cristo Where so and so from, and what neighborhoods beefing Who baby momma's a rat, and who got k**ed last weekend That sh** is mad depressing, bringing me down Speak on something with some substance that can get us both paid Rather than telling me how these n***as jocking your style Or his rims ain't bigger, p**y n***a, I'mma cut you off [Hook] [Verse 3] I'm tryna learn something new I'm tryna better my chances of becoming a star I'm tryna feel the vibe of Mona Lisa Studying art... now paint that picture Life behind bars, remember the very day I got caught? I murdered a rapper, and you filed the police report? See what I was taught, family is all I need But indeed them too can run me right up a tree Constantly talking sh** 'bout the next relative Wanting me to take sides, but I'd never give in Ever since grandma died, everyone parted ways Argue on holidays, left my uncle in prison For 15 years, no one paid him attention but moms Yeah, my momma as loyal as any sister would come Come to my house just to yap about your own people Dang, and if your blood wasn't running through my veins I would prolly cut y'all off too, yep [Hook] [Outro] Keep it running, Ali So tell 'em, "Shut the f** up!" Tell 'em, "Shut the f** up!" Yeah, b**h, you boo-boo, you T'd, you turnt down, you thirsty *repeated in different ways* Keep all that [Interlude] What is HiiiPoWeR? HiiiPoWeR is the way we think, the way we live See it’s known today that the human race is nothing No moral, no standards What we’re about to do is raise the level of expectations No you don’t have to have a lot of money You don’t have to be rich But you will be rich in mind and spirit Some say it’s as big as a crew, some say it’s as big as a gang HiiiPoWeR, we stand for it as if it’s as big as a religion
