PRIDE. By Kendrick Lamar
Album : DAMN
Released : 2017
Genre : Hip-Hop/Rap
Love’s gonna get you killed
But pride’s gonna be the death of you and you and me
And you and you and you and me
And you and you and you and me
And you and you and you and me
And you and you and you and me and
It wasn’t all to share, but there
In another life, I surely was there
It wasn’t all to share, but there
I care, I care
Hell-raising, wheel-chasing, new worldy possessions
Flesh-making, spirit-breaking, which one would you lessen?
The better part, the human heart, you love ’em or dissect ’em
Happiness or flashiness? How do you serve the question?
See, in the perfect world, I would be perfect, world
I don’t trust people enough beyond they surface, world
I don’t love people enough to put my faith in man
I put my faith in these lyrics hoping I make a band, I understand
I ain’t perfect, I probably won’t come around, this time, I might put you down
Last time, I ain’t give a ***, I still feel the same now
My feelings might go numb, you’re dealing with cold thumb
I’m willing to give up a leg and arm and show empathy from
Pity parties and functions and you and yours
A perfect world, you probably live another 24
I can’t fake humble just ’cause your ass is insecure
I can’t fake humble just ’cause your ass is insecure
It wasn’t all to share, but there
In another life, I surely was there
It wasn’t all to share, but there
I care, I care
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there
Now, in a perfect world, I probably won’t be insensitive
Cold as December but never remember what winter did
I wouldn’t blame you for mistakes I made or the bed I laid
Seems like I point the finger just to make a point nowadays
Smiles and cold stares, the temperature goes there
Indigenous disposition, feel like we belong here
I know the walls, they can listen, I wish they could talk back
The hurt becomes repetition, the love almost lost that
Sick venom in men and women overcome with pride
A perfect world is never perfect, only filled with lies
Promises are broken and more resentment come alive
Race barriers make inferior of you and I
See, in a perfect world, I’ll choose faith over riches
I’ll choose work over ***, I’ll make schools out of prison
I’ll take all the religions and put ’em all in one service
Just to tell ’em we ain’t ***, but He’s been perfect, world
It wasn’t all to share, but there
In another life, I surely was there
It wasn’t all to share, but there
I care, I care
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there

[ Quotable ]
Now crawl your 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
IVs on top of IVs
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
● ” ***, Don’t *** My Vibe ”
☆ World Music Award for World’s Best Video
[ Quotable ]
I’m tryin’ to keep it alive
And not compromise the feeling we love
You’re tryin’ to keep it deprived
And only co-sign what radio does
And I’m lookin’ right past you
We live in a world, we live in a world on two different axles
You live in a world, you livin’ behind the mirror
I know what you scared of
The feeling of feeling emotions inferior
This *** is vital, I know you had to
This *** is vital, I know you had to
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 somethin’ you can blame
On yourselves, you can remain stuck in a box
I’ma break out and then hide every lock
I’ma break out and then hide every lock
● ” Poetic Justice ”
From Album “Good Kid, M.A.A.D City” Featuring ” Drake ”
Written By Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, Janet Jackson, Drake, Kendrick Lamar & Scoop DeVille
[ Quotable ]
I recognize your fragrance, hold up, you ain’t never gotta say ***, uh
And I know your taste is, a little bit hmm, *** maintenance, uh
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 I write poems in these songs dedicated to you when
You’re in the mood for empathy, there’s blood in my pen
Better yet, where your friends and ’em? I really wanna know you all
I really wanna show you off, *** 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
*** don’t approach her with that Atari, ***, that ain’t good game, homie, sorry
They say conversation rule a nation, I can tell
But I could never right my wrongs ‘less I write it down for real, P.S
● ” Backseat Freestyle ”
Goddamn I feel amazing, damn I’m in the matrix
My mind is living on cloud nine and this 9 is never on vacation
Start up that Maserati and vroom-vroom, I’m racing
Popping pills in the lobby and I pray they don’t find her naked
And I pray you niggas is hating, shooters go after Judas
Jesus Christ if I live life on my knees, ain’t no need to do this
Park it in front of Lueders, next to that Church’s Chicken
All you pussies is losers, all my niggas is winners, screaming
