m a.a.d city - kendrick lamar lyrics

if pirus and crips all got along
they’d probably gun me down by the end of this song
seem like the whole city go against me
every time i’m in the street i hear

“yawk! yawk! yawk! yawk!”

“man down. where you from, n-gg-?”
“f-ck who you know, where you from my n-gg-?”
“where your grandma stay, huh, my n-gg-?”
this m.a.a.d city i run, my n-gg-

brace yourself, i’ll take you on a trip down memory lane
this is not a rap on how i’m slinging crack or move cocaine
this is cul-de-sac and plenty cognac and major pain
not the drill sergeant, but the stress that weighing on your brain
it was me, o-boogy, yaya, yg lucky ride down rosecrans
it got ugly, waving your hand out the window. check yo self
uh, warriors and conans
hope euphoria can slow dance with society
the driver seat the first one to get k!lled
seen a light-skinned n-gg- with his brains blown out
at the same burger stand, where *censored* hang out
now this is not a tape recorder saying that he did it
but ever since that day, i was looking at him different
that was back when i was nine
joey packed the nine
pack to stand on every porch is fine
we adapt to crime, pack a van with four guns at a time
with the sliding door, f-ck is up?
f-ck you shooting for if you ain’t walking up?
you f-cking punk, picking up the f-cking pump
picking off you suckers, suck a d-ck or die or sucker punch
a wall of bullets coming from
ak’s, ar’s, “aye y’all. duck.”
that’s what momma said when we was eating that free lunch
aw man, god d-mn, all h-ll broke loose
you k!lled my cousin back in ’94. f-ck yo truce
now crawl yo head in that noose
you wind up dead on the news
ain’t no peace treaty, just pieces
bg’s up to pre-approve, bodies on top of bodies
iv’s on top of iv’s
obviously the coroner between the sheets like the isleys
when you hop on that trolley
make sure your colors correct
make sure you’re corporate, or they’ll be calling your mother collect
they say the governor collect, all of our taxes except
when we in traffic and tragic happens, that shit ain’t no threat
you moving backwards if you suggest that you sleep with a tec
go buy a chopper and have a doctor on speed dial, i guess
m.a.a.d city

“man down
where you from, n-gg-?”
“f-ck who you know, where you from my n-gg-?”
“where your grandma stay, huh, my n-gg-?”
this m.a.a.d city i run, my n-gg-.”

if pirus and crips all got along
they’d probably gun me down by the end of this song
seem like the whole city go against me
every time i’m in the street i hear

“yawk! yawk! yawk!

wake yo punk -ss up!
it ain’t nothing but a compton thang
chyea
real simple and plain
i’m a teach you some lessons about the street
it ain’t nothing but a compton thang
chyea
how we do

fresh outta school cause i was a high school grad
sleeping in the living room in my momma’s pad
reality struck i seen the white car crash
hit the light pole two n-gg-‘s hopped out on foot and dashed
my pops said i needed a job i thought i believed him
security guard for a month and ended up leaving
in fact i got fired because i was inspired by all of my friends
to stage a robbery the third saturday i clocked in
projects tore up, gang signs get thrown up
cocaine laced in marijuana
and they wonder why i rarely smoke now
imagine if your first blunt had you foaming at the mouth
i was straight tweaking the next weekend we broke even
i made a legion then made a promise to see you bleeding
you know the reasons but still won’t ever know my life
kendrick aka compton’s human sacrifice

cocaine, weed
n-gg-‘s been mixing shit since the 80’s loc
sherm sticks, b-tt nakeds
dip
make a n-gg- flip
cluck heads all up and down the block and shit
one time’s crooked and shit
block a n-gg- in
alondra, rosecrans, bullis, it’s compton
i’m still in the hood
loc yeah that’s cool
the hood took me under so i follow the rules
but yeah that’s like me, i grew up in the hood where they bang
and n-gg-s that rep colors is doing the same thing
p-ss it to the left so i can smoke on me
a couple drive-bys in the hood lately
couple of iv’s with the f-cking spraycan
shots in the crowd then everybody ran
crew i’m finna slay, the street life i crave
shots hit the enemy, harsh turn brave
mount up regulators in the whip
down the boulevard with the pistol grip
trip, we in the hood still
so loc, grab a strap cause yeah, it’s so real
deal with the outcome, a strap in the hand
and a bird and 10 grand’s where motherf-ckers stand

if i told you i k!lled a n-gg- at 16, would you believe me?
or see me to be innocent kendrick that you seen in the street
with a basketball and some now & laters to eat
if i’m mashing all of my skeletons, would you jump in the seat?
would you say my intelligence now is great relief?
and it’s safe to say that our next generation maybe can sleep
with dreams of being a lawyer or doctor
instead of boy with a chopper that hold the cul de sac hostage
k!ll them all if they gossip, the children of the corn
they realizing the option of living a lie, drive they body with toxins
constantly drinking and drive, hit the powder then watch this flame
that arrive in his eye; this a coward, the concept is aim and
they bang it and slide out that b-tch with deposits
and the price on his head, the tots probably go to the projects
i live inside the belly of the rough
compton, u.s.a. made me an angel on angel dust, what
