Music in my Soul: April 2014

This is Kendrick Lamar. He is a hip hop recording artist from Compton ,California. Kendrick is 26 years old and was born on June 17, 1987. His genre is hip hop. His first retail- release was in 2010 and this was called Overly Dedicated. That following he released his first album Section.80 and it instantly ranked as one of the top digital hip hop releases of the year. he was inspired by the prominent artists that he had worked with including, Dr. Dre, Drake, Young Breezy, Busta Rhymes, E-40, Lil Wayne, and many more. his following albums include Good Kid, M.A.A.D City (2012-2013), and now currently still producing, Controversy(2013-present). Kendrick Lamar was crowned the number one "Hottest MC in the game", he had recieved a total of seven grammy nominations, along with having his album good kid, m.A.A.d city be certified platinum and put at number two on the Billboard 200. I think that his best songs come from his album good kid,m.A.A.d city. These songs are called Swimming Pools (Drank), Poetic Justice, Money Trees, and Bitch Dont kill my vibe.

"Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe"

[Hook 1:]

I am a sinner

Who's probably gonna sin again

Lord forgive me

Things I don't understand

Sometimes I need to be alone

Bitch don't kill my vibe

I can feel your energy from two planets away

I got my drink I got my music I will share it but today I'm yelling

Bitch don't kill my vibe

[Verse 1:]

Look inside of my soul and you can find gold and maybe get rich

Look inside of your soul and you can find out it never exist

I can feel the changes

I can feel a new life

I always knew life can be dangerous

I can say that I like a challenge and you to me is painless

You don't know what pain is

How can I paint this picture

When the color blind is hanging with ya

Fell on my face and I woke with a scar

Another mistake living deep in my heart

Wear it on top of my sleeve in a flick

I can admit that it did look like yours

Why you resent every making of this

Tell me your purpose is petty again

But even a small lighter can burn a bridge

Even a small lighter can burn a bridge

[Hook 1:]

I can feel the changes

I can feel the new people around me just want to be famous

You can see that my city found me then put me on stages

To me that's amazing

To you that's a quick check, with all disrespect let me say this

[Hook 2:]

I am a sinner

Who is probably going to sin again

Lord forgive me

Things I don't understand

Sometimes I need to be alone

Bitch don't kill my vibe

I can feel your energy from two planets away

I got my drink I got my music I will share it but today I'm yelling

Bitch don't kill my vibe

[Verse 2:]

I'm trying to keep it alive and not compromise the feeling we love

You trying to keep it deprived and only co-sign what radio does

And I'm looking right past ya

We live in a world, we live in a world on two different axles

You live in a world, you living behind the mirror

I know what you scared of, the feeling of feeling emotions inferior

This shit is vital, I know you had to

Die in a pitiful vain, tell me a watch and a chain

Is way more believable, give me a feasible gain

Rather a seasonal name, I'll let the people know this is something you can blame

On yourself you can remain, stuck in a box

Ima break out and then hide every lock

[Hook 2:]

I can feel the changes

I can feel the new people around me just want to be famous

You can see that my city found me then put me on stages

To me that's amazing

To you that's a quick check, with all disrespect let me say this

[Hook 1:]

I am a sinner

Who is probably going to sin again

Lord forgive me

Things I don't understand

Sometimes I need to be alone

Bitch don't kill my vibe

I can feel your energy from two planets away

I got my drink I got my music I will share it but today I'm yelling

Bitch don't kill my vibe

[Bridge:]

You ain't heard the Coast like this in a long time

Don't you see that long line

And they waiting on Kendrick like the 1st and the 15th

3's in the air I can see you are - in sync

Hide your feelings, hide your feelings now what you better do

I'll take your girlfriend and put that pussy on a pedestal

Bitch don't kill my vibe

Walk out the door and they scream it's alive

My new year's resolution is to stop all the pollution

Talk too motherfucking much, I got my drink I got my music

I say, bitch don't kill my vibe

Bitch don't kill my vibe

"Poetic Justice"
(feat. Drake)

[Intro]

Every second, every minute, man I swear that she can get it

Say if you a bad bitch put your hands up high, hands up high, hands up high

Tell 'em dim the lights down right now, put me in the mood

I'm talking 'bout dark room, perfume

Go, go!

[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]

I recognize your fragrance (hol' up!)

You ain't never gotta say shit (woo!)

And I know your taste is

A little bit (mmm) high maintenance (ooh)

Everybody else basic

You live life on an everyday basis

With poetic justice, poetic justice

If I told you that a flower bloomed in a dark room, would you trust it?

I mean write poems in these songs dedicated to you

And you're in the mood for empathy, theres blood in my pen

Better yet when your friends and them

I really wanna know you all

I really wanna show you off

Fuck that, pour up plenty of champagne

Cold nights when you curse this name

You called up your girlfriends and

Y'all curled in that little bitty range I heard that

She wanna go and party, She wanna go and party

Nigga don't approach her with that Atari

Nigga that ain't good game, homie, sorry

They say conversation, rule a nation, I can tell

But I can never right my wrongs

'less I write it down for real, P.S

[Hook x2: Kendrick Lamar]

You can get it, you can get it

And I know just know just know just know just know just

What you want, Poetic Justice, put it in a song

[Verse 2: Drake]

I really hope you play this

Cause ol' girl you test my patience

With all these seductive photographs and all these one off vacations

You've been taken

Clearly a lot for me to take in

It don't make sense

Young East African Girl, you too busy fucking with your other man

I was trying to put you on game, put you on a plane

Take you and your mama to the motherland

I could do it, maybe one day

When you figure out you're gonna need someone

When you figure out it's all right here in the city

And you don't run from where we come from

That sound like Poetic Justice, Poetic Justice

You were so new to this life but God damn you got adjusted

I mean I write poems in these songs, dedicated to the fun sex

Your natural hair and your soft skin, and your big ass in that sundress (ooh!)

Good God, what you doing that walk for?

When I see that thing move, I just wish we would fight less and we would talk more

And they say communication saves relations, I can tell

But I can never right my wrongs unless I write them down for real

P.S...

[Hook]

[Verse 3 : Kendrick Lamar]

Every time I write these words they become a taboo

Making sure my punctuation curve

Every letter is true

Living my life in the margin and that metaphor was proof

I'm talking poetic justice, poetic justice

If I told you that a flower bloomed in a dark room, would you trust it?

I mean you need to hear this

Love is not just a verb, It's you looking in the mirror

Love is not just a verb, It's you looking poor maybe

Call me crazy, We can both be insane

A fatal attraction is common

And what we have common is pain

I mean you need to hear this

Love is not just a verb and I can see power steering

Sex drive when you swerve, I want that interference

It's coherent, I can hear it, mmhmm

That's your heartbeat

It either caught me or it called me, mmhmm

Breathe slow and you'll find gold mines in these lines

Sincerely, yours truly

And right before you go blind

P.S.....

[Hook]

[Skit]

"I'm gon' ask you one more time homie, where is you from? Or it is a problem"

"Ay you over here for Sherane homie?"

"Yo I don't care who this nigga over here for, if he don't tell where he come, it's a wrap! I'm sorry"

"Hol' up hol' up hol' up, we gon' do it like this, OK? I'mma tell you where I'm from, you gon' tell me where you from, OK? Or where your Grandma stay, where your mama stay, or where your daddy stay, OK?"

"Enough with all this talkin"

"Matter of fact, get out the van homie. Get out the car before I snatch you out that mother fucker homie"

"Swimming Pools (Drank)"

[Hook:]

Pour up (drank), head shot (drank)

Sit down (drank), stand up (drank)

Pass out (drank), wake up (drank)

Faded (drank), faded (drank)

[Verse 1:]

Now I done grew up

Round some people living their life in bottles

Granddaddy had the golden flask

Back stroke every day in Chicago

Some people like the way it feels

Some people wanna kill their sorrows

Some people wanna fit in with the popular

That was my problem

I was in the dark room

Loud tunes, looking to make a vow soon

That I'm a get fucked up, fillin' up my cup

I see the crowd mood

Changing by the minute and the record on repeat

Took a sip, then another sip, then somebody said to me:

[Chorus:]

Nigga why you babysittin' only 2 or 3 shots?

I'm a show you how to turn it up a notch

First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

I wave a few bottles, then I watch em all flock

All the girls wanna play Baywatch

I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it

Pool full of liquor I'm a dive in it

[Hook:]

Pour up (drank), head shot (drank)

Sit down (drank), stand up (drank)

Pass out (drank), wake up (drank)

Faded (drank), faded (drank)

[Verse 2:]

Okay, now open your mind up and listen to me, Kendrick

I'm in your conscience, if you do not hear me

Then you will be history, Kendrick

I know that you're nauseous right now

And I'm hopin' to lead you to victory, Kendrick

If I take another one down

I'm a drown in some poison abusin' my limit

I think that I'm feelin' the vibe

I see the love in her eyes, I see the feelin'

The freedom is granted as soon as the damage of vodka arrive

This how you capitalize

This is parental advice

Then apparently, I'm over influenced by what you are doin'

I thought I was doin' the most then someone said to me

[Chorus:]

Nigga why you babysittin' only 2 or 3 shots?

I'm a show you how to turn it up a notch

First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

I wave a few bottles, then I watch em all flock

All the girls wanna play Baywatch

I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it

Pool full of liquor I'm a dive in it

[Hook:]

Pour up (drank), head shot (drank)

Sit down (drank), stand up (drank)

Pass out (drank), wake up (drank)

Faded (drank), faded (drank)

[Bridge:]

I ride, you ride, bang

One chopper, one hundred shots, bang

Hop out. Do you, bang

Two chopper, two hundred shots, bang

I ride, you ride, bang

One chopper, one hundred shots, bang

Hop out. Do you, bang

Two chopper, two hundred shots, bang

[Chorus:]

Nigga why you babysittin' only 2 or 3 shots?

I'm a show you how to turn it up a notch

First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

I wave a few bottles, then I watch em all flock

All the girls wanna play Baywatch

I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it

Pool full of liquor I'm a dive in it

[Hook:]

Pour up (drank), head shot (drank)

Sit down (drank), stand up (drank)

Pass out (drank), wake up (drank)

Faded (drank), faded (drank)
