“I Am (Interlude)”
See y’all don’t understand me
My plan B is to win ya hearts before I win a Grammy
Kendrick Lamar, words like a sword in the hands of a Spartan
Marching on Rosecrans in Compton
You can’t ’cause conflict or corrupt my spirit
I’m on point like period
I’ve been there and gone before you get near it
Ooh wee, that boy remind me of a young Martin Luther
The way he piece up troopers, then round up shooters
Like Malcolm X did, I stand for what I believe in
Family, God and honor
From Chicago, my daddy and my mamma
Came to Compton to accomplish one thing
Raise a king, reign supreme, named Kendrick
I ain’t lying, it stand for king and I am one
My unborn son and grandson will live royal
From the coochie to the soil
The meek shall inherit the Earth
Well I’ve had this world since birth
Feel the good kid’s hunger
The Crips made strong, the Pirus made stronger
Muscle in my heart
Stare at the eyes of Mozart, then tell him I’m the genius
Do my dougie and grab my penis
‘Cause I means this with all my soul
And you can’t control greatness ‘less you hating with the heart of Satan
But even that can’t stop it
Nigga, get out my wallet and put passion in your logic
Passion in your life, the passion of my Christ is in me
And if you say it ain’t, you may offend me
Damn that boy good
Bright as Thomas Edison, but Gucci man hood
He stood alone for so long
Prolonged his whole career, but now he’s here
You can shoot shots or cheer ’cause I… am
