Let Me Be Me (让我做自己) - Kendrick Lamar (肯德里克·拉马尔)[00:00:00]
We on Ali You ugly[00:00:09]
Everybody just clap your hands if you're real[00:00:15]
Middle finger up give a f**k how they feel[00:00:18]
Be yourself just show me you're real[00:00:21]
Middle fingers up[00:00:24]
Just let me be me hmm[00:00:27]
That's the only way I know[00:00:33]
Just let me be me hmm[00:00:39]
That's the only way I know[00:00:43]
That's the only way I know how to hold it down[00:00:49]
That's-that's the only way I know how to hold it down[00:00:51]
Uh I just wanna be me[00:00:54]
No disrespect but motherf**k you[00:00:56]
My education stopped at a high school degree[00:00:58]
But I can outsmart any high IQ[00:01:02]
Draped in some fly sh*t call me Jeff Goldblum[00:01:05]
Cold my style making my nose run[00:01:08]
Oh I stare at the mirror then realize[00:01:11]
That real lies within me[00:01:15]
Some say I'm crazy cause I think like I need a shrink[00:01:17]
Ask too many questions about the stars and Earth sh*t[00:01:21]
Rather be in the studio than out buying drinks[00:01:23]
So if I'm not clubbing don't think I'm on some jerk sh*t[00:01:26]
And California on that jerk sh*t[00:01:31]
But I'd just rather two-step like my first steps[00:01:33]
Jill Scott in my iPod as my head rests yes[00:01:37]
Just let me be me hmm[00:01:41]
That's the only way I know[00:01:45]
Just let me be me hmm[00:01:52]
That's the only way I know[00:01:59]
That's the only way I know how to hold it down[00:02:02]
That's-that's the only way I know how to hold it down[00:02:04]
And yeah I know I'm from Compton Cali'[00:02:07]
But I don't lace up Chucks or rock tan khakis[00:02:11]
And skinny jeans ain't quite the lick[00:02:14]
I probably would wear 'em but my dick don't fit[00:02:16]
Ha-ha-ha I like to joke got a sense of humor [00:02:19]
Stale face play me short like an Oompa-Loompa[00:02:22]
You ain't gotta screw up your face in front of the kids[00:02:24]
Won't you lighten up like Michael did [00:02:29]
I grew up with killers man people who killed man[00:02:33]
But my character never could be like them man[00:02:37]
And they respect that say that I'm real man[00:02:39]
Not a fake person that's the Sims man[00:02:41]
Live my life through some film man [00:02:44]
I ain't acting out sh*t I be packing out shows[00:02:47]
Cause they know they'll know Kendrick fo' sho' and oh[00:02:50]
Just let me be me hmm[00:02:55]
That's the only way I know[00:03:01]
Just let me be me hmm[00:03:07]
That's the only way I know[00:03:11]
That's the only way I know how to hold it down[00:03:16]
That's-that's the only way I know how to hold it down[00:03:18]
Almost lost my life to the industry[00:03:22]
Had to look through a photo book to remember me[00:03:24]
These label heads ain't nothing but bullshit[00:03:27]
Have you with professional killers chasing hits[00:03:30]
Lying to yourself all over an image[00:03:33]
Making records they want that was wrecking my brilliance[00:03:36]
My mama said boy that don't sound like you[00:03:39]
I said this is the sound though my only excuse[00:03:41]
Quite frankly dusted off my shoes with my hankie[00:03:45]
And kicked it like he skate make these motherf**kers hate me[00:03:50]
The reason why they hate cause these motherf**kers ain't me[00:03:52]
And you can underrate me but I know what I'm worth[00:03:56]
A diamond in God's dirt a diamond in winter[00:03:59]
Watching Simpsons and eating some cereal for dinner[00:04:01]
See I give you my life to mix it up in a blender[00:04:03]
To make sure that you feel it[00:04:06]
Just let me be me hmm[00:04:08]
That's the only way I know[00:04:12]
Just let me be me hmm[00:04:19]
That's the only way I know[00:04:27]
That's the only way I know how to hold it down[00:04:29]
That's-that's the only way I know how to hold it down[00:04:31]

Kendrick Lamar what are you trying to say [00:05:03]
What are you trying to accomplish Kendrick Lamar [00:05:05]
I think that I finally reached the pinnacle[00:05:07]
Of finding myself as an individual[00:05:08]
The world is so typical[00:05:09]
I just wanna be higher than that[00:05:10]
I used to want to be the messiah of rap[00:05:11]
Infatuated with becoming a relevant star[00:05:13]
Trying to say goodbye to the glamorous chains and cars[00:05:16]
That I never had but wrote it in my raps to make you mad[00:05:19]
Vanity they say that it can damage me[00:05:22]
So do I really want it [00:05:25]
If I didn't I guess I'm a cool coc*ine connect[00:05:28]
That means I'll be fronting hmm[00:05:31]
Cooking in a laboratory hoping I can tell a story[00:05:35]
That the whole world can feel like the ones that came before me[00:05:38]
Knowing that I'm misunderstood[00:05:41]
So I gotta get my point across like a snitch would[00:05:43]
And I would never walk in the shadow that never was really there[00:05:46]
Or try to fill the shoes of an invisible pair[00:05:49]
And Dame said he proud of my newfound honesty[00:05:52]
And all I could say is will the radio care [00:05:56]
Yeah or should I say no [00:05:59]
Or should I just stop and come with a whole new approach [00:06:01]
You heard my Hip Hop when I was sixteen years old[00:06:04]
Well that was me then now I'm an adult[00:06:07]
Twenty-two like the smallest of guns that you know most determined[00:06:10]
But with the smallest of funds to show but I'm not worried[00:06:13]
My talent should take me places I've never been[00:06:17]
The world should turn soon as my record spin[00:06:21]
I wanna be the highest on top of all the bullshit[00:06:23]
The negative you bring the stress the violence[00:06:26]
The capital punishment the loud police sirens[00:06:28]
Too focussed one word righteous[00:06:32]
And this is Kendrick Lamar[00:06:36]
And soon y'all know cloud nine y'all[00:06:38]
And that means I wanna be the highest[00:06:42]
Too focussed one word (righteous)[00:06:45]
Mm yeah[00:06:47]
That means I wanna be the highest[00:06:54]
Too focussed one word[00:06:56]
Too focussed too focussed one word[00:06:57]
Too focussed too focussed one word[00:07:02]
Too focussed too focussed one word[00:07:05]
Too focussed one word[00:07:07]
Too focussed too focussed one word[00:07:10]
