Kendrick Lamar - Little Johnny lyrics

Uh Yeah Kendrick Lamar Uh Yeah I can reconcile being depressed real bad I'm a thinker not a drinker but still I Hennessey drag; Alcohol numbs the pain like where Novacane stabs In your arteries, pardon me but my city go mad Via Compton California, corners with coroners and karma on em Colours corresponding to gangs upon us Common corrupted Crips and Pirus cripple the city Triple the crime, Bible nor the Quran can save; Welcome, don't be afraid, your city similar right? Where the choppers kidnap the night and police silence your rights; Stare at the sky, wonder will you live to see twenty-five? I'm twenty-two, at twenty I knew I was against the odds; This kid named Jonathan was monitoring His momma and sister, his older cousin, he honoured him; Anonymous bodies on his burner was astonishing To Johnny, he might've been A modern day rider then He walking outside again, he see the lifestyle of an active member Pull out a MAC-11 now his eyes is big Fascinated by mayhem, what's his cousin to say now? He wanna be from the hood that he's from and that's one More gangster under the family tree, took 'em under his wings like KFC Crip crazy, rocking matching T-shirts that says "The hood made me" No love, just spread slugs, that's the policy, the leader and the prodigy; Now shorty doo-wop, holding a oowop, hanging with rah-rahs With blah-blahs that sit on the block catching fades and licks Going on missions with lunatics, a ninth-grade menace Thugging for six months, smoking like six blunts an hour; The power of banging, he was walking from...(gunshots) Little Johnny [Outro: Voice of Malcolm X and (Kendrick Lamar)] I think you'll find, sir, that there will come a time When black people wake up and become intellectually independent enough To think for themselves as other humans are intellectually independent enough to think for themselves Then the black man will think like a black man and he will feel for other black people And this new thinking and feeling will cause black people to stick together And then at that point you will have a situation Where when you attack one black man, you are attacking all black men And this type of black thinking will cause all black people to stick together And this type of thinking also will bring an end to the brutality inflicted upon black people by (black people) And it is the only thing that will bring an end to it No federal court, state court or city court will bring an end to it It's something that the black man has to bring an end to
