LYRICS: I was wrestling like, should I write a verse? The culture got enough clout chasing vultures out here tryna prove their worth They need attention They can’t imagine me not trying to make myself look bigger off of this Kendrick mention I can’t imagine his position Before I got on my mission, I was a party victim I bought the party favors I used my trauma, my single mama to justify commas to pay the devil’s wages (whoo!) Huh, that probably went over they heads Basically what I said is “I was government fed Bred for doing time in the feds But Jesus bled” Instead of putting dents in their heads, He turned his My cup runneth over with nonsense Their hearts grow colder, they love to do evil, they burn their conscience I want the dealer’s head who gave my cousin fentanyl Labels exploiting rapping addicts, man I’m sick of y’all My daddy ran with Compton Crips, my uncle’s Piru Stuck in the middle of this madness, what should I choose? I should be choosing between Howard and Hampton I love the people that I ran with, but look at the damage You want me put’ you on, but I know you still with the scamin’ A crooked doctor took advantage and hooked me on Xanax There’s killers sitting in their cells for taking somebody innocent And they don’t even feel no remorse, the worst ignorance But when I take a look in the mirror, the blood of Uriah’s on my hands cause I’m that killer Who had Bathsheba in his quarters I’m that [censor] who let Eve taste the fruit of death I’m that sinner I deserve death, along with all these liars and hypocrites Fake tough rappers who fabricate they predicaments Fake deep guru pushing voodoo on the people Telling folks that my God ain’t real, that’s real evil Huh, I wonder what Lecrae would do? Hopefully seek the hand of God, and tell them that he’s incapable But truthfully, I’m nobody to judge My good deeds are like some period blood stains on a dirty rug All I can offer them is Jesus’ love I know it sound foolish to many like, “Really, that’s all you got for us?” Yeah, the cross is foolish to the perishing The world will call me weak and the Saints will say that I embarrass them I walked through valleys full of evil, I’m aware of it I can’t condemn the world and burn all of the heretics Love is patient, so I’m trusting in the narrative And Christ ain’t watch the party die, He died instead of it
I can't imagine how much the culture reset is now relying to religion too. We have brat and we have K-Dot's beef with Drake. World's revolving really fast, eh? And, look. I'm an agnostic Muslim, this kind of rap's message is still reached me without taking down any Abrahamic elements on that one, it's really universal. And really loved how LeCrae respect the compliments from Dot.
Kendrick open people eyes and bring the real hiphop back, it's time chh come out show the world rap not only about shaking ass, instead of bring Wayne I want to see positive side of hiphop on stage instead
That's amazing but Christ was someone who, from a christian pov, was a savior... so from kendrick's perspective, are we all saviors? That was still amazing though
I believe Kendrick has a very new-age worldview, which he got from his mentor, Eckhart Toll. And I believe Crae’s line about “fake-deep gurus” is directed at Eckhart.
