      astrothunder this is straight facts. i have them on the same plateau as the greatest ever. kendrick lamar is the greatest lyricist and he perfectly mixes it with storytelling creating his art. kanye west is all about sounds. he has perfected his sounds and mixes all of them together to form his art. he may not have the best lyrics but his songs are profound and will he listened to for years to come. imagine a kendrick album solely produced by kanye with a feature or 2 of him on the album. it’d be a masterpiece.

Check out Menteroja and get back to me. Check out One be Lo. Check out MC Juice. Check out Double Life. These all make Kendrick look like a pop child which he is.. lol do me a favor go to the beginning of this piece of shit album thing here. He starts it out like this" ugh just a lil compton nigga ughgh" sounds like drakes bitchasss. wake up pop lover, you like hip pop not hiphop. get back to me when you understand music and hip hop.

    THE HEART PART II:
    [Intro: Dash Snow, Daniel Joseph & Kendrick Lamar]
    "I’ll tell you what I don’t believe in, can I do that? All right, I don’t believe in laws, or the system by any means, whatsoever. I try not to obey them at anytime. That's what I believe in not believing in."
    "So what keeps you alive?"
    "Four big bottles of water a day, two packs of Marlboro Reds. And, uh, I don’t - what keeps me alive, shit. Music, I have to listen to music all day long. I'd say that keeps me going. I’m a pretty dark person, I’ve thought about ending it a million times. And I have to say that music keeps me here, by far, the main thing."
    Thank you
    [Verse: Kendrick Lamar]
    Sitting in the studio thinking about which mood would go
    Right now, freestyle or write down, whatever
    It still'll come up clever, I just need to free my thoughts
    And Lord knows that I know better, but I ain't perfect
    I ain't seen too many churches or know them testament verses
    You should either hear me now or go deaf
    Or end up dead, die trying and know death
    Might end up dead, swallow blood, swallow my breath
    Fuck a funeral, just make sure you pay my music respect, nigga
    I mean that from the bottom of my heart
    You see my art is all I have
    And victory tastes sweet, even when the enemy can throw salt
    Still knock them out the park like a fucking tow car
    Let bygones be bygones, but where I'm from
    We buy guns and more guns to give to the young
    I'm living the life of a nigga trapped, nigga
    Inside the system all you envision is trap niggas
    My uncle doing life inside prison; he wasn't wrapped too tight
    He told me "Rap about life, not rap niggas"
    That's why I'm shaking my head when you rap-dissin'
    My stomach start turning, my nerves get to twitching
    I start evaluating, then my final intuition
    Is that you wishing a come up, would just come up
    We used to beefing over turf, fuck beefing over a verse
    Niggas dying, motherfuck a double entendre
    And this is Comp-ton, lions in the land of the triumph
    Wrap-Saran our defiance, ban our alliance
    Put burners in the hands of the black man
    One hood with 20 four-fours like a cloned Kobe Bryant
    You probably heard I wanna be heard and wonder who I am
    You probably even listened to "Faith," and think I know Zion
    But really I'm just caught in the loop, of understanding the truth
    Because it seem like it's always clashing with science
    I got a big fear of flying
    My future so bright I'd probably go blind before I blink twice
    I ain't lying
    I swear to God, half of y'all just don't know Kendrick
    The school of hard knocks, we was the first ones in attendance
    You walking down the block, he got shot, you are no eye witness
    You just mind your business
    You just turn your head, kneel down and then tie your tennis
    It's kind of scary, ain't it?
    You can't act like no bitch, that only got Tyler Perry famous
    Just let me explain this, why you pick up that stainless
    'Cause your pops wasn't anxious to see you and you hate it
    So much you probably had your burner tucked at graduation
    So if you see him on 'em bleachers then you kill him
    Facing 25 to life with a murder charge
    Your enemies was the prey and now you pray to God
    I pray these bars get farther than Compton
    And if our record never break, I still won’t break my promise
    I promise to keep it honest
    Secret society, all we ask is trust
    And all we lack is communication like service sucks
    The people scared of annihilation when Kingdom Come
    And I'm like, "The Kendrick Lamar OD in less than a month, all right?"
    Gotta keep it pushing
    Can't let the government tell me how my future looking
    I'm on Rosecrans and Central trying to duck the central bookins'
    If the fucking pigs get behind me then you know I'm bookin'
    Never will I surrender
    I been a warrior when I came out my mom's placenta
    In the gutter lane like I'm Master Splinter
    How splendid, I guess my project had did it
    Got all these niggas approaching they mixtapes different
    They said seven tracks, I said 15
    Called it an EP, they said I’m trippin'
    But little did they know, I’m tryna' change the rules
    That we’ve been confined to, so the corporate won’t make decisions
    Uppity bitches handling business
    Killing our dreams, stealing our vision
    Out in Haiti, adolescents barely have a home
    In LA everybody think they fucking on
    Hop on Twitter, perpetrate we doing big shit
    Who we hanging with and bragging about the iPhone
    I swear to God most of y'all cats just don’t know Kendrick
    You barely know yourself, so I guess most of y'all should be offended
    Ain’t doing this for my health, I’m tryna' purchase my momma dem' Benzes
    Occupying my time with riches, justifying my time ambitions
    Just to coincide, just to go inside, plus we idolize why we living
    Look, the mastermind took the master's mind
    Just the perfect time, just to master mine
    Just to match the grind with precision
    Look, the mastermind took - (cough)
    [Outro: Alori Joh]

    Back with a vengeance
    Back with my heart and I'm venting
    Back with another war pendant, salute me or shoot me
    I never wore a kufi, ignore my religion
    I believe there's one God, there's one love
    And I believe if I fly, we all doves
    I make a way for my people to see the light
    Brighter than yellow bones
    Me and my microphone could be one
    Until I see BIG, Pac, see Pun but this ain't Eazy
    I can't take a Big L, my city needs me, I gotta win
    The proof is in the pudding
    And I been fucking with Cosby since I was ten, you damn right
    Any means necessary, get the campaign right
    Very emotional I'm a Gemini, I love hard and I fight harder, a born author
    A born starter, in the game for real
    And the games appeal to the struggling youth with no father
    You can't learn if mistakes ain't made
    You gotta pay your homage in order to get paid
    You gotta pay attention in order to pay dues
    And you ain't gettin' it, 'til you start payin' Jews
    Lifestyles of the young and the broke
    With my hand under oath, I recite these quotes
    And if I ever lie then I die where I stand as a pest not a man what I wrote through a rap
    In order to see the front, I had to play the back
    We played our position, we let y'all play y'all self, y'all made y'all decision
    We pray while we prey on competition
    To flip another page of Corinthians
    I see stars when I write these sentences
    Words crash cars when I write these sentences
    Open jail bars for my niggas' life sentences
    Free J-Dove, kill all witnesses
    Y'all better hope 2012 really real, cause the way I feel I'ma make y'all suffer
    And take y'all supper
    I haven't ate in the last 22 summers and I'm 22 now it's about to go down
    So en garde, my God we got these artists in awe
    Oh, I'm free
    Finally I can say I'm me
    The Kendrick Lamar EP, classic EP
    The question concerns
    I dropped it and gave the whole world my germs
    Hope y'all infected
    Hope y'all ain't have no protection
    Still I'm progressing, room for improvement
    Make room for the groom married to his music
    I was at the XXL just trying to excel
    Networking, meanwhile my stomach turning
    Wanted to be a part of it cater it to my audience
    J. Cole runnin' late
    If he don't show up, think I can take his place
    Ladies start laughing
    No pun intended I ain't being sarcastic
    Homie popped up with about twenty bags and
    Fresh out the plane I couldn't even complain
    My nigga was on his hustle I introduced him my name
    Said I'll see him on the bubble in the future, my dude I salute ya
    Contributing the real shit
    Talk about it make the people talk about it
    Make the world see, for every MC that I see tryna stay afloat
    Tell 'em build a boat like Noah
    And take him to a place that I'm sure we all can blow up, boom
    I ain't a star yet but I'm gettin' close to 'em
    And if you see a whack artist do more than boo him
    Throw him off the banister, shoot him on camera
    Then kill his manager
    Then hang a banner up, that reads you can't proceed without bein' conceived by one album of the 90's
    On Rosecrans where you'll find me
    And all my niggas is grimy
    But I remain the good kid
    Tryna make a difference where I'm from, where you live
    Oh no we got to slow the city down
    I told the homeboy pump his brakes
    He said that he rather put the pump to his face
    Sawed off
    Torture, turn the saw off, its scorchin'
    Hot where I'm from, the newscasters don't come
    Another ratchet got dumped, in the trashcan I ain't done
    A baby in there with it
    She said postpartum did it
    Molested at eleven and she always reminiscing
    When he was undressing said it'll only be a minute
    That's why I always think I'm kicking something with feeling
    I should've been a dentist
    I should've been a blizzard-cold
    Flash, pose, flash, pose, a critic paparazzi got me on my toes
    I wanna jump on him like a tad-pole, tad-pole, ass-holes
    Tryna kill my dreams
    Not elevate
    Those are not my dreams, I'll be straight
    With a little bit of passion
    And a drive like an Aston
    Motivation from Nipsey or Glasses, Jay Rock
    Mykestro , Bad Lucc, U-N-I
    Dom Kennedy, Murs and Fashawn
    Lady G, Willy B in time
    I'ma blow like I'm mothafuckin' sniffing lines
    Go like I never seen a red light shine
    Flow to my heart, hit the flo' when I'm dying
    Heart of a lion, tell 'em get in line
    And pass the baton, I won't pass it back I ain't good at dimes
    If the bitch bad I could pass you a dime
    Haters better duck like I'm passing a pond
    Know I'm the king and I'm passing you pawns
    Pad on the hill (as in a big house on the hill) that's a passion of mine
    Problem is I shine like two mics under heavy strobe lights
    I'ma need two mics just to get my point across
    I'ma get my joint across, country y'all gon' want me
