Текст Jay Rock – Shadow Of Death
Текст:
Jay Rock
Yeah, Los Angeles, ‘Welcome to the Terrordome’
City of Satan, angels can’t even get along
No lie, my town covered in darkness
Rolling up the kush, now I’m letting my mind wander
into another place, I ain’t tryna go down under
Life is like a race and we all tryna finish it
Shit never fair, strays hitting the innocent
The good die young where I’m from and it’s sad to say
that somebody gotta die today
Tomorrow’s never promised, but we living for the moment
Nigga, time never stops, it just keeps on going
Crackers just gave my young nigga four life sentences
Twenty-five times four, nigga, do the math
And the hood never have witnesses
cause if we did, then them shots gon’ blast
Chorus: Kendrick Lamar
As I reflect, I start realising I wanna
Make a way one day for me and my momma, family and friends
This ain’t the way my life bout to end
So I’m quick to grab on my pen and
Give ’em something my people sure to feel
Give ’em something that I know is all the way real
ScHoolboy Q
Just waking up, mind playing tricks on me
Got the fifth on me, gotta take a risk homie
Was a ball player till the coach pissed on me
Keep it real, I could take you down the list homie
Be a tradition, see these Chucks be a mission
If you banging, be serious
Boys run up in your pad, point-blank, period, moms ain’t hearing it
Niggas said cuz
?
got blasted
Oh well, give a shit, shouldn’t half-assed it
Only time you with it, when your niggas all tripping
Caught your ass slipping, now I’m stepping up my crip and steady dipping
Riding through the city in lights, living it trife
Wrong intersection, ready to fight
Hopping out with my own agenda, who the contender?
Better hope this motherfucker jam (blahh!)
Chorus
Kendrick Lamar
Uh, as I’m hearing the first and second verse
I try to analyse the feeling that’s felt in the song
I want to tell Rock and Q to go to church
But that’s a hypocrite because I ain’t been in so long
I stare at the world from a righteous point of view
and realise a crisis coming
Novocain couldn’t numb it, the pain is unbearable times two
Let’s rally a team, summon, and school the youth
How you feel about it?
Ab-Soul
Man, I feel the same way as you
It hurts my soul, like a needle piercing through the bottom of my shoe
And if you behind bars
Hold your head, pause
And if you in close range with a nigga with a gun in his waste
I pray the intervention is divine
I got a cousin in jail and handful of homies in Heaven
But earlier than expected, what the Hell?
Chorus
