Watch The Party Die - Kendrick Lamar
I think it's time
To watch the party die
This **** done got
Too wicked to apologize
It's different
Get him whacked and disqualified
We even kill the killers
'Cause they like taking innocent lives
Burn a whole village
We start over
It's really that time
Why reason with these niggas
If they can't see the future first
Why argue with these clowns
If the circus is well at work
Just walk that man down
That'll do everyone a solid
It's love but tough love sometimes
Gotta result in violence
If you parade in gluttony
Without givin' truth to the youth
The graveyard is company
Just tell us what casket to choose
They party more than *******
Tell me what are you working for
They glorify scamming
You get chipped over this credit card
Influencers talked down
'Cause I'm not with the basic ****
But they don't hate me
They hate the man that I represent
The type of man that never dickride
'Cause I want a favor
The man that resides in patience
So where the soldiers at
The one's that lost it all
And learnt to learn from that
A thirst for life head inside
A book 'cause he concerned with that
Information that'll change
His life because he yearns for that
Dedication findin' out what's right
'Cause he can earn from that
I feel for the women that deal
With the clown and nerd ****
Can't blame them today they
Ain't really got much to work with
How many ******* harder
Than a lot of you niggas
Would trade all of y'all for Nip
I can't be proud of you niggas
God give me life dear God
Please give me peace
Dear God please keep these
Lame niggas away from me
Dear God keep me shinin'
The **** do they really think
Pocket-watching
You must be the police
God bless these words
Dear God bless how I think
Dear God draw the line
They tryna confuse 'em with me
Dear God please forgive me
You knowin' how hard I tried
I think it's time for me
To watch the party die
Uh-huh huh
Get 'em gone
We gon' watch the party die
Uh-huh
Send 'em home
We gon' watch the party die
I think it's time to watch the party die
Street niggas and the corporate guys
The rappers that report the lies
I need they families mortified
We can do life without 'em
Get they bodies organized
Tell me if you obliged
No more pillow-talkin'
Jump-startin' neighborhood wars
Dirty-mackin' ******* because your
Spirit is insecure
The flashy nigga with nasty
Decisions usin' money as a backbone
I want his head cracked
Before he's back home
The radio personality pushin'
Propaganda for salary
Let me know when they turn up
As a casualty I want agony
Assault and battery
I see a new Earth
Filled with beautiful people
Makin' humanity work
Let's kill the followers that
Follow up on poppin' mollies from
The obvious degenerates
That's failing to acknowledge the
Hope that we tryna spread
If I'm not his vote
Then you need to bring
His ******* head
Or film that **** in hi-res
God give me life dear God
Please give me peace
Dear God please keep
These lame niggas away from me
Dear God keep me shinin'
The **** do they really think
Pocket-watching
You must be the police
God bless these words
Dear God bless how I think
Dear God draw the line
They tryna confuse 'em with me
Dear God please forgive me
You knowin' how hard I tried
I think it's time for me
To watch the party die
Sometimes I wonder what
Lecrae would do
**** these niggas up or
Show 'em just what prayer do
I want to be empathetic
My heart like Dee-1
But I will
It's time to get these devils out the way
Heavy metals on my sword
We settle hard disputes today
The ghetto Hollywood divorce
Say hello to your future fate
The culture bred with carnivores
You let 'em snack they eat your face
The signatures is bein' forged
They wonder why I'm not enthused to drop
The more visible you get
The more your spiritual is tried
It's cynical to say I know
These artists petrified
The end result in jail by
Jezebel or drugged up full of lies
Critical I know my physical
Is tested all the time
I'm pitiful sunken place soon
As I'm questionin' my pride
I'm seein' ghosts blackin' out
Relapsin' one thought at a time
I spare no feelings that ain't mine
I'm in my feelings when I slide I mean
A nigga wonder what Lecrae would do
Terrace Martin said
I'm mentally with layers true
I flood the market with my best regards
I paid your dues
And so it's up
If you ain't one of ours
It's bad news
My nigga Jay Estrada said
I gotta burn it down to build it up
That confirmation real as ****
It ain't too many real as us
Lockin' in to what I trust
Lookin' outside
The kids live tomorrow
'Cause today the party just died
