What's your life about, enlighten me Is you gonna live on your knees, or die on your feet Is you gonna plead the fifth, or sound the horn The time is now my child, come on See a lot of y'all don't understand Kendrick Lamar Because you wonder how I could talk about money, hoes, clothes God and history all in the same sentence You know what all the things have in common Only half of the truth, if you tell it See I've spent twenty three years on the earth searching for answers 'til one day I realized I had to come up with my own I'm not on the outside looking in, I'm not on the inside looking out I'm in the dead f**ing center, looking around You've ever seen a newborn baby k** a grown man That's an an*logy for the way the world make me react My innocence been dead So the next time I talk about money, hoes, clothes God and history all in the same sentence Just know I meant it, and you felt it cause you too are searching for answers I'm not the next pop star, I'm not the next socially aware rapper I am a human mothaf**in' being, over dope a** instrumentation Kendrick Lamar Now f** 'em up Terrace (Soul!) [Outro] I watch this fire that we're gathered around And see that it burns similar to the fire that's inside you Section.80 Section.80 babies A generation of bliss and disobedience Know they can't control us Know they can't control you Know they can't control us But we can control each other We build our own world If you don't leave with nothing else tonight, you will leave with knowing yourself You will leave knowing that you represent something thats bigger than all of us Our family Heart, honor and respect This is you, this is me And we are HiiiPower
