[DJ Dahi:]
I said I’m geeked and I’m fired up (fired, fire)
All I want tonight is just get high up (high, high, high)
Girl, you look so good, it’s to die for (die for)
Ooh, that p—y good, it’s to die for (on fire)

[Kendrick Lamar & Rihanna:]
It’s a secret society
All we ask is trust
(All we ask is trust)
All we got is us
Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty
Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty

[Kendrick Lamar:]
Kung Fu Kenny now
My resume is real enough for two millenniums
A better way to make a wave, stop defendin’ them
I meditate and moderate all of my wins again
I’m hangin’ on the fence again
I’m always on your mind
I put my lyric and my lifeline on the line
And ain’t no limit when I might shine, might grind
You rollin’ with it at the right time, right now
(Only for the dollar sign)

[Chorus: John Legend]
They say “What’s happenin’?”
We say the facts and if, they lie…
We comin’ back for them
They might say… but they don’t know!
(They say, They say…)
They don’t knowwwww

[Verse 1: Common]
They say a n—a lost his mind
But in the scheme of things I never lost a rhyme
The thin line between love and hatred
I’m the black pill in the Matrix, the saturated life
They say life is what you make it
So I wait quick on a spaceship so I can take it
As high as the stakes get when paper get low
I be tellin Derick, “Tell Kara get us a show”
Little Com, I make righteous bitches get low Continue reading →
