[Verse: Kendrick Lamar]24/7, 365, motherfucker I'm still right on timeOh you thought you had me all figured out?Take it from the horses mouth, you'll never understand meI told you, my Plan B is to you win your hearts before we win a grammyThese Days ain't shit changedDifferent toilet, same shit... And I drank a whole gallon of laxatives by accident just to shit on you has-beensHad it been for my past tense, I wouldn't be rappingSee these streets made me, broke me down, built me up, drove me crazyMade me hungry, made you hate me, but **** loveIt don't make dollars it don't make sense niggaBy the way that's dj Quik niggaRespect or check itThese Days I'm a little more focused cause y'all cracked the door and I kicked it open, yellin' get the **** down or I will shootI told you *gunshots* not to mother****in' move!Be another example, I'll take the whole industry hostage if I have toI'll sabotage this game, a good kid? Yeah that's only in my mama's eyesI seen a dead body at five and that shit made me traumatizedSo These Days, a little blood on my hands ain't nothing comparedTo hopping out a minivan, with a mini 22 3s and the homie TutuTwo more ygsAin't nobody got time for that!These Days it's only time for rap!So Herbert Anthony Stevens, you make or break bread before we break evenBefore they broke our records we broke records and wrote pieces, of historySo These Days? These accolades are meant for weIt's only truth that this shit was meant to beT. D.

What more did you expect? HiiipowerFor the most part, we go hard for the respectI'm obviously ominous to my competition and if I ain't better than Kendrick than nobody is then!We shared our life with you, shared our light with you even in the darkest of hoursIn hopes that one day, just maybe, one day the world'll be oursHa, and now they look up to us like towers for rhyming like we had super powersThey should've never let us in these offices...Knowing good and God-damn well how well we've been ducking officersLaughing at the scraps they offered us in the pastAnd now we toast champagne to the thirst we never had!I had my ups and downs but I always left rightRest In Peace Alori Joh...Topdawg for life!And oh yeah...Soul![Interlude]I watch that fire that we have gathered around and see that it burns similar to the fire that is inside you...
