[Intro]
2
See any angels in the city
3
[Verse 1]
4
Tell them muthafuckas I'm forever paid, California king
5
Wrestle gators in the Everglades, drive up out that muthafuckin swamp
6
In the Escalade so before you put that Red rag
7
In your pocket I wanna see your fuckin resume
8
Started off on Ground Zero, then I start to levitate
9
Rip rappers a new asshole: I never hesitate
10
Dre Beats on, smoking that chronic just to meditate
11
I'mma give em hurricanes until another Levee break
12
You niggas is featherweights, I'm Aftermath's heavyweight
13
Now Dre's weapon of mass destruction is 'bout to detonate
14
When a nigga Wack found me, shit, I was selling weight
15
Now a nigga's selling millions, now it's time to celebrate
16
Performing in front of millions, nigga every race
17
64 in the '64, now watch the Chevy scrape
18
4th album, no 5 mics? Then let 'em hate
19
But I'm not stopping 'til I'm the fucking king in every state
20
[Hook: Kendrick Lamar]
21
Recognize my life, ridicule my fight, give me fuel for the fire burning when I yearn these lights
22
In the midst of the hieroglyphs my fingertips start to write, get familiar with Cartwright
23
Cause I want that shot, I'm a raging bull when the needle drops
24
For the record, I'mma wreck it, even if my record don't pop
25
I'mma tie a knot on a downtown building, let it tow behind me tell 'em
26
They can find me in the dark with the ghetto children look at my heart, nigga fuck your feelings, this is me
27
[Verse 2]
28
I'm sick of motherfuckers talking about "the West died"
29
Can't you hear my heart beating?
30
That's the motherfuckin West side, you test me, you test God
31
I'm his son, it say in Psalms, you come at me
32
Then I can split you with this Tommy gun, you won't have no time to run
33
I'm from the Compton slums and that's how the West ride
34
I'm from the city where 2 of the best died
35
Rest in peace to both of 'em, spit like I'm the ghost of 'em
36
Damn, I said I spit like I'm the ghost of 'em
37
Name your top 10, I'm harder than the most of 'em
38
Matter of fact, shorten your list nigga, top 5
39
Game, Biggie, Hov, prolly Pac, Nas
40
No particular order, bet a mil that I slaughter
41
Serve niggas, give a fuck what you ordered
42
How dare you niggas pop fly when I'm the nigga
43
Sold 5 mil out the gate and numbers do not lie
44
[Hook]
45
[Verse 3]
46
I gave you the Documentary, shit was a classic
47
Gave you Doctor's Advocate, you ripped it out the package
48
Came with LAX, since critics said it was average
49
I was stressed the fuck out, torn between Aftermath and
50
Geffen, Interscope, now I got you in the scope
51
Spill the red ink on the paper, it's like my pen is broke
52
And this is what you all been waiting for
53
I'm the lost angel knocking on Satan's door
54
What the fuck y'all take me for? I love you cause you hate me more
55
I'm Kobe on the Lakers floor, except I give you 84
56
Shake you like Haiti's floor, walk up on you
57
Like "what's going on baby boy?" Shots in that Mercedes door
58
Either I'm crazy, or the black Slim Shady, or
59
That be the reason that Baby said he would pay me more
60
But I still owe Jimmy one more album
61
The best the West has ever seen, no disrespect to Calvin
62
[Hook]
63
[Verse 4: Kendrick Lamar]
64
And I wear pendant on my shoulder, soldier
65
Like a lieutenant, and the coupe tinted got pulled over
66
Johnny always lock a nigga down
67
Knowing damn well we don't wanna see the box like Manny Pacquiao
68
Little nigga Mayweather size, ride like Pac
69
In his prime, thug life is now on radar
70
Til the federal come through and raid ours
71
Reminiscing when the LA Raiders
72
Was in my home, snapback fitted on my uncle's dome
73
And I don't condone dickriding, I'm addicted to
74
Westsiding, living in a city where the skinny niggas die
75
And the semi bullets fly, but it turn me to a lion
76
Trying, and I mean that shit
77
Game came through, put the city on his back
78
I was in the city with a nigga, had seen that shit
79
"Compton!", a nigga gotta scream that shit
80
Never went commercial, never T.V. screened that shit
81
Can't block or screen that shit, now everybody sing that shit
