Full lyrics to Kendrick Lamar’s new tune, titled “Watch the Occasion Die”
Part 1
I believe it is time to watch the social gathering die
This factor is just too evil to apologize for
No, beat him up and disqualify him
We even kill murderers as a result of they take pleasure in taking harmless lives
Burn down the entire village and we begin over, it is actually time
Why trouble making an attempt to cause with these guys if they can not see a future?
If the circus is operating so properly, why trouble arguing with these clowns?
Simply take that man down and it will be higher for everybody
It is love, however love is hard and typically results in violence
If you’re gluttonous and don’t provide the reality to younger individuals,
Cemetery is companionship, please inform us what coffin to decide on
They like partying greater than ladies, inform me what are you doing?
They glorify fraud and your bank card might be charged.
Influencers preserve their heads down as a result of I do not agree with primary stuff
However they do not hate me, they hate the person I symbolize
The sort of man who by no means rides a motorcycle as a result of I need a favor
a affected person particular person
So the place are the troopers?
Those that misplaced every part and realized from it
Eager for life, he plunged into books as a result of he cared about this
Message that might change his life as a result of he wished it
Dedication, determining the precise factor to do as a result of he can generate income from it
I really feel for girls who cope with clowns and nerds
Cannot blame them, they actually don’t have anything to work with right now
What number of ladies have it more durable than you ladies?
Would commerce all of you for Nip, I could not be prouder of you
refrain
God, please give me life. Expensive God, please give me peace.
Expensive God please preserve these lame guys away from me
Expensive God, make me shine, do they actually assume that?
Examine your pocket to see in case you are a police officer
God, bless these phrases, expensive God, bless my ideas.
Expensive God, draw the road, they’re making an attempt to confuse them with me
Expensive God, please forgive me, you know the way onerous I attempt
I believe it is time for me to look at the social gathering die.
Allow them to go, we’ll watch the staff die
Ship them house and we’ll watch the staff die
Part 2
I believe it is time to watch the social gathering die
Road thugs and company sorts, rappers who report lies
I would like their households to really feel humiliated
We will reside with out them and let their our bodies manage themselves
inform me in case you are obligated
No extra pillow speak, no extra neighborhood wars
Soiled bastard, since you’re mentally insecure.
A flashy girl who makes soiled choices with cash as her spine
I need his head smashed earlier than he comes house
Radio persona promotes wage promotion
Please notify me after they have casualties.
I need ache, assaults and beatings.
I see a brand new earth full of lovely individuals making humanity work onerous
Let’s kill the followers of poppin’ mollies
Apparent, wicked, simply not admitting it
Hopefully we are able to unfold the phrase if I am not his vote
Then you should carry his rattling avatar or high-res movie
refrain
God, please give me life. Expensive God, please give me peace.
Expensive God please preserve these lame guys away from me
Expensive God, make me shine, do they actually assume that?
Examine your pocket to see in case you are a police officer
God, bless these phrases, expensive God, bless my ideas.
Expensive God, draw the road, they’re making an attempt to confuse them with me
Expensive God, please forgive me, you know the way onerous I attempt
I believe it is time for me to look at the social gathering die.
Allow them to go, we’ll watch the staff die
Ship them house and we’ll watch the staff die
Part 3
Generally I ponder what Lecrae would do
Fuck these villains or present them what prayer will do
I wish to have empathy, my coronary heart is like Dee-1
However I’ll…
It is time to eliminate these demons
There’s heavy metallic on my sword, right now we resolve a thorny dispute
Ghetto Hollywood Divorce and Say Howdy to Your Future Future
A tradition bred by carnivores, you give them snacks and so they eat your face
Signature was cast
They wish to know why I am not eager on giving up
The extra seen you might be, the extra your spirit might be examined
It is cynical to say I do know these artists are surprised
The top result’s being imprisoned by a Jezebel or drugged with lies
Crucially, I do know my physique is continually being examined
After I query my delight, I really feel pathetic and sink
I noticed ghosts, blacked out, relapsed
For a 3rd of the time I went to nice lengths to really feel prefer it wasn’t mine
I am misplaced in my emotions as I slip
I imply, I would like to know what Lecrae would do
Trayce Martin mentioned I’m spiritually layered, and it’s true
My finest regards to the market, I pay your dues
Here is the factor, if you happen to’re not one in every of us, that is unhealthy information
My n** Jay Estrada says I’ve to burn it all the way down to rebuild it
This affirmation is fucking actual, however not as actual as us
Lock down what I belief
Look outdoors, the youngsters might be alive tomorrow as a result of the social gathering simply ended right now
