[Kendrick Lamar - singing]
[bad word] so [bad word] stressed out
 I feel like [bad word] everything right now
 See I've been broke too long, can't find a job to save my life
But I'll be damned if I give 'em my handout
 See my pride is one thing I will not put aside
I'm too proud to beg, I'm sorry Left Eye
If I don't make it in life, [bad word] I tried
 What? Uh

 [Hook 1: Kendrick Lamar]
You ever feel like nobody never understands you but you?
 Not your momma, your poppa, only person is you
 Not your brother, your sister, the only person is you
 You ever feel like nobody never understands you but you?
 Nobody, nobody but you
 So it feels like, like it's only you

 [Hook 2: Kendrick Lamar]
So I'm feeling like I want to, I want to
 I want to, I want to go so far from here
 Very, very far from here
 I need to, I need to
 I need to, I need to go so far from here
 Very, very far from here

 [Kendrick Lamar - singing]
It seems like, you can't win for losing
Whatever you're doing turns out to be "what-are-you-doing?"
Sick of assuming, that your time will [bad word] 
Nobody knows the position that you in
But it's a million people out there that's going through the same thing
 That feeling, hard to explain
 When you just, just want to get away
 Something like

 [Schoolboy Q]
Away from it all
 Take me out of [bad word] where only Heaven can visit
The smartest astronomers, they won't even see my vision
I'm stuck on the studio couch, now I'm thinking bout my daughter
 Times is getting harder, another beat is slaughtered
 Just press record or, seems like I need a mill' to keep my [bad word] in order
 Instead of problem solving
From my hat to my shoes, spirit laced with pride
 Set some [bad word] aside to help me wipe my teary eyes
Reaching for the skies, [bad word] on a cloud
 [bad word] on a bird's head, higher than a dread
As I fly through the galaxy, pain and the agony
 Nothing is surrounding me, living my life
Though it's better to write
 Configuring my style to the streets, bring dark to the light
So how you feel? My [bad word]  I keep it real
 Schoolboy soon to be star, Mr. Lamar
