[J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, BJ The Chicago Kid - Shock the World lyrics]
Change for that fame
How some niggas turn sell out
Too old for my mama crib
I'm tryin to get the hell out
Stayin' out these cells but we
Working on that bailout help out
Please sure is hard livin without cheese
Ain't shit in my pocket only these house keys
They pray for a nigga but yet they doubt me
That's why I'm out getting
Higher than balconies but no I won't jump
Being broke is childish and boy I'm grown up
My money runnin' late tho so
Boy I won't front
When my paper finally make you
Should know I'm gonna stunt so, hard
My God, my life is such turmoil
Can't save me tonight cause times is hard now
I know you tell me don't let my guard down
I gotta get it my nigga
Never believe what they say
Man, I gotta get paid
Dawg it's so damn amazing
How I'mma shock the World
I'mma shock the World hell naw I ain't lying
Yea, I gotta get mine dawg it’s about time
So I'mma shock the world
So I'mma shock the world
Stare inside of the soul of Kendrick
While I stare inside the solar
System hopin' I soak up
Enough game to play 3 systems with one
Controller and remain sane and remain unsober
Was closer to my dreams but reality
Actually told me hold up
No money in my jeans and my
Salary said you owe us can't pay them taxes
Laid on that matress and feel
Colder than a polar bear
But this bear was in California
So I felt out a pocket and then a
Piece of lint fell out my pocket
A broke opportunist all in my optics
And you could see it even when I'm Sleep
My screw's loose
I hate when loose change fall in them seats
Because I need every dime like Magic Johnson
Or Hugh Hefner living in his prime
Prime example of youngin' on his grind
This the life of a Compton nigga
I know the vanities of the
World like the promise niggas
That's why we crooked
In yo bushes where you find us nigga
You better scramble before you fold
Like an omelet nigga
This ain't insomnic nigga and that means I
Don't need Busters to front on me
A Bible in my pocket I'm walkin'
Like it's a gun on me
So when I catch a fade they know
To put more than one on me fear no evil
I can still see Regals pullin' up
Niggas tuck like a baby in fetal, position
If you listen you can hear the city needs you
That's what my mind said
But my big head is tellin' me
That I'm a black Beatle
Until my number is called
And someone yell bingo
A shadow in the dark, park the coupe
Then recoup with the homeless in the park
