Schemin', and let me tell you 'bout my life Paink**ers only put me in the twilight Where pretty p**y and Benjamin is the highlight Now tell my momma I love her, but this what I like, Lord knows 20 of 'em in my Chevy, tell 'em all to come and get me Reaping everything I sow, so my karma comin' heavy No preliminary hearings on my record I'm a motherf**ing gangster in silence for the record Tell the world I know it's too late Boys and girls, I think I gone cray Drown inside my vices all day Won't you please believe when I say [Pre-Hook: Kendrick Lamar] Wouldn't you know We been hurt, been down before n***a, when our pride was low Lookin' at the world like, "Where do we go?" n***a, and we hate po-po Wanna k** us dead in the street fo sho' n***a, I'm at the preacher's door My knees gettin' weak, and my gun might blow But we gon' be alright [Hook: Kendrick Lamar] n***a, we gon' be alright n***a, we gon' be alright We gon' be alright Do you hear me, do you feel me? We gon' be alright n***a, we gon' be alright Huh? We gon' be alright n***a, we gon' be alright Do you hear me, do you feel me? We gon' be alright [Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar] What you want you: a house or a car? 40 acres and a mule? A piano, a guitar? Anything, see my name is Lucy, I'm your dog Motherf**er, you can live at the mall I can see the evil, I can tell it, I know it's illegal I don't think about it, I deposit every other zero Thinking of my partner, put the candy, paint it on the Regal Digging in my pocket, ain't a profit big enough to feed you Everyday my logic get another dollar just to keep you In the presence of your chico... Ah! I don't talk about it, be about it, everyday I sequel If I got it then you know you got it, Heaven, I can reach you Pet dog, pet dog, pet dog, my dog, that's all Pick back and chat, I trap the back for y'all I rap, I black on track so rest a**ured My rights, my wrongs; I write 'til I'm right with God [Pre-Hook: Kendrick Lamar] Wouldn't you know We been hurt, been down before n***a, when our pride was low Lookin' at the world like, "Where do we go?" n***a, and we hate po-po Wanna k** us dead in the street fo sho' n***a, I'm at the preacher's door My knees gettin' weak, and my gun might blow But we gon' be alright [Hook: Kendrick Lamar] n***a, we gon' be alright n***a, we gon' be alright We gon' be alright Do you hear me, do you feel me? We gon' be alright n***a, we gon' be alright Huh? We gon' be alright n***a, we gon' be alright Do you hear me, do you feel me? We gon' be alright [Outro: Kendrick Lamar] I keep my head up high I cross my heart and hope to die Lovin' me is complicated Too afraid, a lot of changes I'm alright, and you're a favorite Dark nights in my prayers [Poem] I remembered you was conflicted Misusing your influence, sometimes I did the same Abusing my power, full of resentment Resentment that turned into a deep depression Found myself screamin' in the hotel room I didn't wanna self-destruct The evils of Lucy was all around me So I went runnin' for answers
