BLACK FORCES Lyrics by Kendrick Lamar
I think it’s time to watch the party die
This shit done got too wicked to apologize
It’s different, get him wacked, then disqualified
We even kill the killers ‘cuz they like takin’ innocent lives
Burn the whole village we start over, it’s really that time
Why reason with these niggas if they can’t see the future first?
Why argue with these clowns if the circus is well at work?
Just walk that man down, that’ll do everyone a solid
It’s love but tough love sometimes gotta result in violence
If you paradin’ gluttony without givin’ truth to the youth
The graveyard is company, just tell us what casket to choose
They party more than bitches, tell me what are you working for?
They glorify scamming you, get chipped over this credit card
Influencers talk down ‘cuz I’m not with the basic shit
But they don’t hate me, they hate the man that I represent
The type of man that never dick ride ‘cuz I wanna favor
The man that resides in patience
So where the soldiers at?
The ones that lost their doll and learnt to learn from that
A thirst for life, head inside a book
‘Cuz he concerned with that
Information, that’ll change his life
Because he yearns for that
Dedication, finding out what’s right
‘Cuz he can earn from that
I feel for the women that deal with the clown and nerd shit
Can’t blame them, today they ain’t really got much to work wit’
How many bitches harder than a lot of you niggas?
Would trade all of y’all for Nip, I can’t be proud of you niggas
God give me life, Dear God just give me peace
Dear God please keep these lame niggas away from me
Dear God, keep me shinin’, the fuck do they really think?
Pocket watchin’, you must be the police
God, bless these words
Dear God, bless how I think
Dear God, draw the line, they tryna confuse ’em with me
Dear God, please forgive me, you knowin’ how hard I’ve tried
I think it’s time for me to watch the party die
Get ’em gone, we gon’ watch the party die
Send ’em home, we gon’ watch the party die
I think it’s time to watch the party die
Street niggas and the corporate guys
The rappers that report the lies
I need they families mortified
We can do life without ’em, get they bodies organized
Tell me if you oblige, no more pillow talkin’
Jump startin’, neighborhood wars
Dirty mackin’ bitches because your spirit is insecure
The flashy nigga with nasty decisions
Using money as a backbone
I want his head cracked before he’s back home
The radio personality pushin’ propaganda for salary
Let me know when they turn up as a casualty
I won’t agony, assault and battery, I see a new Earth
Filled with beautiful people makin’ humanity work
Let’s kill the followers that followable poppin’ Mollies from
The envious degenerates that’s failin’ to acknowledge the
Hope that we tryna spread
If I’m not as woke, then you need to bring his fucking head
Or film that shit in Hi-Res
God give me life, Dear God just give me peace
Dear God please keep these lame niggas away from me
Dear God, keep me shinin’, the fuck do they really think?
Pocket watchin’, you must be the police
God, bless these words
Dear God, bless how I think
Dear God, draw the line, they tryna confuse ’em with me
Dear God, please forgive me, you knowin’ how hard I’ve tried
I think it’s time for me to watch the party die
Sometimes I wonder what Lecrae would do
Fuck these niggas up or show ’em just what prayer would do
I wanna be empathetic, my heart like Dee-1
But I wo-
It’s time to get these devils out the way
Every metal’s on my sword, we settle hard disputes today
The ghetto Hollywood divorce, say hello to your future fate
The culture bred with carnivores
You let ’em snack, they eat your face
They signatures is being forged
They wonder why I’m not enthused to drop
The more visible you get, the more your spiritual is tried
It’s cynical to say, I know these artists petrified
They end result in jail by Jezebel and drugged up full of lies
Critical, I know my physical is tested all the time
I’m pitiful, sunken place soon as I’m pushed in in my pride
I’m seeing ghosts, blacking out, relapsing one third at a time
I spare no feelings that ain’t mine
I’m in my feelings when I slide, I mean
A nigga wonder what Lecrae would do
Terrace Martin said I’m mentally what layers’ true
I flood the market with my best regards and paid your dues
And so it’s up, if you ain’t one of ours, it’s bad news
My nigga Jay Estrada said I gotta burn it down to build it up
That confirmation real as fuck
It ain’t too many real as us
Lockin’ in to what I trust
Lookin’ outside, the key is live tomorrow
‘Cuz today, the party just dies
