BJ The Chicago Kid, Kendrick Lamar - His Pain II lyrics

Yesterday, my nigga had told
Me his brother died a day before that
His homeless uncle was cold outside
A week before
He seen the cancer in his mother's eyes
Two weeks before that
Couldn't pay his rent ’cause he lost his job
A month before that
He lost the custody of his daughter
Six months before that
Her mother said she won't see her father
And this before he did a year
When them charges was brought up
I shook my head, turned around
Then found a hundred dollars

I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why, I don't know why


I don't know why
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why, I don't know why
I don't know why

Yesterday, I invaded privacy of a home
The day before that
My partner had fronted me a zone
A week before
I had loaded bullets inside that chrome
Two weeks before that
I shot them bullets and he was gone
A month before that
I cursed my mother then slammed the door
Six months before that, I hit my woman
She hit the floor
I stormed out, then seen a black Honda Accord
Them hollow tips missed me then
Hit that little boy

I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why, I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why He keep blessing me
I don't know why, I don't know why
I don't know why

So today I laid in my bed
Stared at the ceilin' closed my eyes
Then asked myself how I was feelin'
I analyzed on how a saint
Can play the villain
Is my life coincidental or just God willin'?
I came to grips, jumped up
Looked out the window
See my nigga had that same
Little boy that didn't know
Bullets is nameless
I guess this was meant for
Me to give them a hundred
Dollars then trash my pistol

Now I know why He keep blessing me
Now I know why He keep blessing me
Now I know why He keep blessing me
Now I know why He keep blessing me
Now I know why, now I know why
Now I know why
Now I know why He keep blessing me
Now I know why He keep blessing me
Now I know why He keep blessing me
Now I know why He keep blessing me
Now I know why, now I know why
Now I know why

So I can bless you so I can bless you
So I can bless you yeah, you

Lord help me cause I need You
I know this weed is burning
And I'm on drink number two
But it's all to soothe the pain from this
Cold, cold world
Sometimes I think it can help me
But this buzz here is temporary
So I'm talking to You
This sick world will drive a sane man crazy
Dead birds dropping out the sky
Daughters having their fathers' babies
And this the news I hear
When my god kids, nieces
And nephews turn a year
I wonder will it get better
A little cheddar will make it better
But the risk of fast cash
Will make last year's Christmas
Gift be my last

But somehow You keep blessing me
But somehow You keep blessing me
But somehow You keep blessing me
But somehow You keep blessing me
But somehow, but somehow, but somehow
But somehow You keep blessing me
But somehow You keep blessing me
But somehow You keep blessing me
But somehow You keep blessing me
But somehow, but somehow, but somehow

If I just keep the faith
I know You'll be right there
Sometimes it may not seem that You are there
But You're there i feel You're there
You're everywhere and I thank You for
Protecting me in these streets
From danger seen and unseen i never know
What happened the night i wasn't there
Something told me leave so I left
News the next morning
Three guys shot after the club
Awwhh, listening to that small voice
Oh it saved my life
