Look at all the bullshit I been through
|
If I take you home, will you tell the truth
|
Look at all the bullshit I been through

If I take you home, will you tell the truth

[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
|
Momma take this mothafuckin' block off
|
Tryna reach you everyday, collect calls
|
Never get through, and I go through with drawls
|
Say who told you that I wanted this the
|
I just wanted to vent or
|
Ask you if you give me your rent for
|
A attorney, I can pay you back more
|
Soon as I get out, yea every record, shows
|
Commissary running low, I need help
|
Not too much, I hustle up the rest myself
|
K Dot wrote me saying Marcus got killed
|
If you knew me, then you know how bad I feel
|
Wish you prove me wrong, and never came to visit
|
And I heard she fucking on some other nigga
|
And my niggas left in the dark, blind
|
Mama kiss the back of me this last time
|

Men lie, Women lie

Men lie, Women lie

Look at all the bullshit I been through
|
If I take you home, will you tell the truth

[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
|
Mama take this motherfucking block off
|
Thats the date the state will take the blocks off
|
Pulled up, and they put me in them cop cars
|
Please believe me, This ain't easy by far
|
You forgot you're talking to your only son
|
Remember when you put me in that relay run
|
I was racing, chasing dreams to be the best
|
You had told me that the very day I won
|
All I need is you to give me some support
|
Investigation saying that the same report
|
From a witness just might testify in court
|
DA say I take a deal, or take a loss
|
I ain't built for all them god damn numbers
|
God's will, say a prayer for me mama
|
If you can't, then open up the phone lines
|
Mama just get back at me this last time
|
|

[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
|
Now I tell if I stress take the block off
|
That's the day the state had take them locks off
|
I could only help but do so much
|
Bettering yourself, your own crutch
|
Look at your reflection tell me who you see
|
Who is your protection, G-O-D
|
No its not neglection, I have just accepted
|
Your fate and what its gon' be
|
Remember all the nights that I cried
|
Thinking that my only son just died
|
Peeking through the window, Kicking through the door
|
It's you they looking for, Raid outside
|
Rather see you locked up than dead
|
Only you would say that I'm selfish
|
So before I take the stand, and put this bible in my hand
|
Son, let me say this
|
|
