[Kendrick Lamar, Alori Joh - Compton State of Mind lyrics]

Yeah, Kendrick Lamar
This for the town, nigga

Me, I'm from the Hub City, yeah
That Compton court building
Caught a murder when his homie died
Judge caught feelings i'm on Rosecrans
Chilling right inside Best Outlest
Five dollar Little Caesar
Momma shopped at Food-4-Less
Elementary McNair, say what's up to Vanguard
Centennial High
Had me swimming with a pool of sharks
Me, I'm just a good kid
Tryna keep it neutral
But I'm well aware that a
Square can get shot too
Most Crip and some Piru
That's just how the game go
Hood on every corner
Stop for gas and get your brains blown
Bitches with fat asses
Burning in the stashes murders in July
Call that summer time madness
Rest in peace 4 Bent, rest in peace Mausberg
Swear to God, when I make it big
Your voice'll be heard
Me, I'm just a good kid
Tryna keep it positive
Though I know it's chaos
Forever my heart will live in

Compton, concrete jungle
Where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in Compton
These streets will make you or break you
Expire or inspire you
Let's hear it for Compton compton, Compton

Take you back to YET it was just divining me
Earl had got disciplined for not
Catching a fade that week
Shit had made him stronger though
Yeah those were the good old days
Eating Tam's burger while my
Juvenile CD had played
21 outside maybe sideline pop
Yellow tape on sidewalk damn
Somebody got popped
Hoping that I live a lot
I don't want to die young
Please don't come shoot up my party
I just want to have fun
Sheriffs in my rear view
Mother fuck the police
Pull me over just to plant an 8 ball on me
Fuck it though I'm out here
I've always been out here
Since the Compton swap meet
Black and red LA gears
Pac was on Rosecrans nigga I was right there
Cali Love video he said whattup I said yeah
Free my nigga J-Dub and both of the J-Mans
Eazy paved the way
Lil Eazy bout to get it in for

Compton, concrete jungle
Where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in Compton
These streets will make you or break you
Expire or inspire you
Let's hear it for Compton compton, Compton

I'm talking bout Westside
Piru, NHP, Campanella, carver Park
Front Hood, Nutty Blocc, Lantana, 151
Park Village cedar Block, Santana
Burgundy and Blue bandanas peace! Peace!
Fruit Town, Kelly Park, Southside, Elm Street
Poccet Hood, ATF, MOB, LPP, 135, VTP
Atlantic Drive, Limehood, NHC, PBC
Peace! Peace!
Tragniew, Compton Raymonds, Tree Top, Mona
Park, T Flats, 7 Os, 155
Compton Swamps, Holly hood, T Zones
All a nigga really want for us to keep
Peace! Peace!
But shit that a take some time and more time
But I'm pushing to get us there in no time
Me, I'm just a good kid
Hoping I can spread love
Word to the county building
Forever I do it for

Compton, concrete jungle
Where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in Compton
These streets will make you or break you
Expire or inspire you
Let's hear it for Compton compton, Compton
