1: Kendrick Lamar]\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nLifestyles of the kid who never had shit[/tab]\r\nLiving off that bad shit, that shoot shit, that stab shit\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nRock a flag and don’t give a fuck about U.S flag shit[/tab]\r\nGeorge Bush got some nerve, fuck a war, we trying to serve\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nMotherfucking 8 balls, til’ we live at the pool hall[/tab]\r\nAnd knock billiards out of your business, ya bitch\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nThats my surroundings in Compton, have common sense[/tab]\r\nSmell death in the air, around here, thats a common scent\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nYou know the gunpowder[/tab]\r\nYou know when your homie barely blink, he just done powder\r\nOnly at seventeen\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nYou know the common statistic inspired by hoop dreams[/tab]\r\nNow hire about street schemes, and getting blood money\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nI try my best to stay focused and hope the city love me[/tab]\r\nPray it's not lust, cause if it is, I’d be death in a month\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nLord forbid, for the good kid[/tab]\r\nThey took his life\r\nShe want her baby back, like a cooked rib\r\nBut that’s just life, where I’m from\r\n\r\n[Hook]\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nIf there’s a shining star[/tab]\r\nHope my city is not too far\r\nSo we can live again\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nSee, where I come from is hard[/tab]\r\nHope all over, we can start\r\nSo we can live again, so we can live again\r\n\r\n[Verse 2: CurT@in$]\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nI’ve seen this young’un on the train, I had to pick his brain[/tab]\r\nHe said he on his way uptown to get a brick of caine’\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nHe said he needed a come up, because selling nicks' was lame[/tab]\r\nHe needed a change, so I gave him fifty cent\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nHe looked up at me like I was crazy, I said listen man[/tab]\r\nI rather give you my last to see you live again\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nJust cause you change what you pitching, don’t make the difference[/tab]\r\nYou gotta get off the mound, and put the game down\r\n[tab]      [ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nPetty thoughts could keep your brain down[/tab]\r\nI leave you with that jewel, go get the chain now\r\nAnd put it together\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nYou see coming up, we ain’t have that shit to keep our mind focused[/tab]\r\nI love Mike, but it was a hassle trying to buy Jordans\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nMy nigga hustle all day in front of the corner store[/tab]\r\nTo get a pair, niggas killed him right in front the mall\r\nSo all the hustling for nothing man\r\nI threw my pair on the lightpole because of him\r\nLike fuck it man\r\n\r\n[Hook]\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nIf there’s a shining star[/tab]\r\nHope my city is not too far\r\nSo we can live again\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nSee, where I come from is hard[/tab]\r\nHope all over, we can start\r\nSo we can live again, so we can live again\r\n\r\n[Verse 3: Schoolboy Q]\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nTrying to move foward, though it never stops[/tab]\r\nA mother’s son dead, was killed by some kids popped\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nShots, they back and forth[/tab]\r\nMurder for murder, the beef recycled is light\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nNo idols, bunch of unread bibles[/tab]\r\nAllies that turned to rivals, niggas turned street disciples\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nSmokers get high as Eiffiels[/tab]\r\nAddicted to being fiends\r\nBecause of the feds as we pledge to let our plague spread\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nTiny this and if and that if they banging back[/tab]\r\nBecause they\r\nAdapt to being black, strapped and gang tats, look\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nRats get mouse trapped[/tab]\r\nCan’t afford tuition\r\nBut hit a lick I bet I earn crack, I heard that\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nLooking at the sky, hoping a light would shine[/tab]\r\nDaylight saving times all the time on this block of mines\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nAll the time with this Glock of mines[/tab]\r\n[tab]Swear to God man it ain’t a rhyme, I grind for a piece of mine\r\nCo-sign[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Hook]\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nIf there’s a shining star[/tab]\r\nHope my city is not too far\r\nSo we can live again\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nSee, where I come from is hard[/tab]\r\nHope all over, we can start\r\nSo we can live again, so we can live again\r\n\r\n[Bridge/Outro: Black Ice]\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nWhen you look at my brothers, what's your first impression?[/tab]\r\n[tab]          [ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nDoes the sight of us leave you guessing?[/tab]\r\nOr do you understand the stressing, the aggression\r\nThe look of no hope on my niggas' faces\r\n[tab]         [ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nLike the Lord overlooked us when He handed down His graces[/tab]\r\n[tab]                                                     [ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nSee embraces, fall short on the numb tips of street entrepeneur fingers[/tab]\r\nStuck in the walls of the project halls where the Coke smell still lingers -\r\nExternal blingers is all we can be\r\n[tab]              [ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nCause on the inside we been given nothin to shine on[/tab]\r\nAnd the gig is harder to get than Coke so niggas get their grind on\r\nBecause the TV tells us aim high Nigga, make all goals lateral\r\nBut that takes paper that we don't have so niggas put their souls up as collateral\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nNow, some niggas reclaim 'em, some blame 'em[/tab]\r\nMaking excuses to sell 'em\r\nBut when a nigga goes from not doin', to doin'\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nWhat can you tell him?[/tab]\r\nNot to be a nigga?\r\nShit I gots to be a nigga that's how I pay the bills and I'mma do that \r\nwhether I gotta sling this coke or exploit these rhyme skills\r\n\r\n[Hook]\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nIf there’s a shining star[/tab]\r\nHope my city is not too far\r\nSo we can live again\r\n[tab][ch]Bbm[/ch]\r\nSee, where I come from is hard[/tab]\r\nHope
