* an easy place to locate this track is the fan-made compilation "Compton State of Mind"[Kendrick Lamar]I can tell you what it is, I can tell you what it isn'tNo more K. Dot, my mother had named me KendrickFuck a stage name, that's the name that I was givenThe only thing that I can identify within this bidnessI'm just a good kid from Compton that want to rapWeighing my options, pick up a Bible or a strap?I never killed a man, never sold any crackAll I ever did was try to keep my city on the mapBut this monkey on my back, y'all don't want me to winI'm tryna follow dreams, you want me to follow trendsSo just to get a dollar, will I sell my soul?I look the Devil in the eye and tell him, hell noThey say anything worth having is worth the waitWell I want the world, tell me how long that takesThere's no time like now, I can cut my patience/patients shortor give 'em some more gowns, I don't even want the crownI just want a peace of mind, and nigga, when I get ityou won't get a piece of mine, won't you mind your own bidness?A rich nigga buy anything you sell himA broke nigga believe anything that you tell himWell I'm a broke niggaBut still I wouldn't listen to you even if your hand was on a Bible quote, niggaPfttuhSee I was brought up differentWhatever that my pops said, for sure I'd listenYou said you did dirt, but I can't dig itIt don't concern you if you wasn't born in itOh-no-oh-ohI swear we got to fast-forward...Before time flies byMy new sound for '0-10 is, why lie?And if you ain't trying to win, then why try?Now you can low-ball or give me high fiveThis is I nigga, look into my eyeNigga, I am Kendrick... LamarNigga, my name is Kendrick... LamarI said my name is Kendrick... LamarI changed the name cause I was tired of being like y'allNow finally I'm ready to tell the world who I are, pfttuhAnd that used to be a hell of a taskNow I'm ahead of my class, so go ahead and harassmy character like it don't carry aconfidence that can marry a Halle Berry or Angelina with no cashI'm bout to cash in my thoughtsGive you a compass, then tell you get lostWhat I'm bout to accomplish is something that you can't fathomOnce the 'Eves' come, they quick to stare 'Adam'/at himHoping I don't take they bitch, but I'm on some other shitWhen I'm done, I'm tryna run the governmentThey are big dreamsTransition from a rapper to a human being, you can't 'school' a deanI be tutoring artist-es, leave 'em with no audienceAll cause they all oversaw it, my GodY'all be out partying, I be stealing your audienceAll because who I are, LamarBut my first name, it gotta be Kendrick... LamarNigga, my name is Kendrick... LamarI changed the name cause I was tired of being like y'allNow finally I'm ready to tell the world who I are, now let's goBut we can't go... backwards
