Kendrick Lamar - Compton Chemistry lyrics

Yeah, see, I know I can make
A lot of money doing this, man
It's just the whole process that uh
That I'm having trouble with
You know what I mean?
I know you just, pretty much, you know
Get the water boiling, and just, uh
Get a jar or something like that
Put it in the jar and just watch it
You know bubble up and all that

Shame on him! (what?) lemme put my gloves on
And my scrubs on
I'm the chemist that's whippin'
It in the kitchen
This here is not for the children
You need parental advision
If you wanna learn how to
Cook in the dope business
First you bargain shop
Look for the priciest chickens
I recommend that you pay Jorge a visit
Got it wrapped in saran
175 no, drop four grand, this is LA man!
Unless it be a drought
But homie if it ain't
Then it is somewhere else
Flip your hustle down south
That's a whole other story though
Back to the lesson, hope you're
Takin' down your footnotes
Class is in session get your instruments
Grab some baking soda, a triple beam
A beaker and a hanger you can stir it with
Split nine Os four ways in that 36
Place it on the triple beam
As hard as it may seem, it's not that tricky
Say you'll get it baby, just bear with me
Confidence before compliments
Now let's get busy this is the procedure
250 grams of coke, 150 grams of soda
Place it in the beaker
Your water should be boiling by then
Grab a small cup and pour it in
Twist the hanger until it's paper thin
Place the hanger in the beaker then
Give your wrist a circular spin
But hold on it gets tricky again!
As your hand rotate
You're probably thinkin' it's safe
Until it starts to harden
Slowing down the pace
The muscle inside your arm is
Makin' your joints ache
You're strugglin' on the job
But don't lose faith
Waityou got it back soft (good)
Now pour some hot water inside the beaker jar
The work should rise to the top
Then pour some cold water on that
That's when the dope should drop
Snatch the cookie out the jar
Grab a razor from the cabinet
Place it on the cardboard, then chop
As soon as the razor hit the work
You're happy
You're excited that the chemistry worked
This the fiend's appetite
This bigger than life
You turned to Mr nino Brown in one night
You should thank me twice
Though you learned from a chemist who never
Moved a brick in his life how ironichmm
Like most of you rappers
Aw I don't believe that man
You're too professional with it man
There's no way you've never done it before
You know what I mean?
That was too descriptive
