Wanna Be Heard
 作词 : Lamar, Kendrick
 作曲 : Lamar, Kendrick
[00:05]It's like I don't think you fully understand who I am, ya know?
[00:08]I'm just a good kid from Compton that wanna rap
[00:13]I don't represent no colors, I represent my lil' sisters and brothers
[00:16]I'm the oldest, *****
[00:18]And if you can't respect that, your whole perspective is wack
[00:21]Check it out
[00:21]I used to wanna rap like Jay-Z
[00:23]Until I finally realized that Jay wasn't me
[00:26]I took my time to jot down every line that's a quotable
[00:29]Critics say I don't be killing this **** but I know I do
[00:32]Because I used to practice early morning and then after school
[00:34]I'm working on my hooks my *****, I ain't tryna battle you
[00:37]But even if I did, I guarantee I'd overshadow you
[00:40]Like a ****** up taper that turned to bowl cut
[00:42]I'mma close cut to Common and Gucci Mane
[00:44]Now that's a comparison that you probably wouldn't understand
[00:47]Because I can touch the people and still keep it ghetto
[00:50]As an '87 Regal with the tree air freshener on the rearview mirror
[00:53]I wear a heart on my shoulder
[00:55]'Member when we used to make the boost look like Motorola?
[00:57]Your cousin ****** up your room every time he came over
[01:00]Then went to jail when we got older
[01:02]That **** is a bad odor, but still I remain focused
[01:05]In due time, I'll be able to swipe my card and it won't say decline
[01:08]That ****'s embarrassing huh
[01:10]Hope no one pay you no mind
[01:11]But it's a bad ***** behind you while you standing in line
[01:13]Can you relate to my story?
[01:15]Can you follow my dreams
[01:16]And admirations that I had ever since I was thirteen?
[01:19]My momma believed in me, she let me use her van to go to the studio
[01:22]Even though she know her tank is empty, that's who I do it fo'
[01:25]My pops got a different approach, yeah he believed
[01:28]But he always questioned when I'mma drop my debut CD
[01:30]How long this gon' take *****?
[01:32]You still haven't ate *****
[01:33]At twenty-two I had two cars and my own place *****
[01:36]It's a sacrifice I try to tell him
[01:38]That's when he turn to BET and tell me that he jealous
[01:40]Of all these ****** getting money and their **** don't sound like ****
[01:43]I ain't tryna kill your confidence or forcing you to quit
[01:46]I just wanna hear you heard
[01:48][02:52][03:56]Yep, yep, that's my word
[01:49][02:54][03:58]Make a statement with these nouns and verbs
[01:52][02:56][04:00]I represent the liquor that's poured out on the curb
[01:55]Listen to my nouns and verbs (man I wanna be heard)
[01:58][03:03][04:07]Like a cattle with sheep
[02:00][03:04][04:08]While y'all sleep I be up, cooking up all day
[02:03][03:07][04:11]Like a mad scientist in that laboratory
[02:05][03:09][04:14]********** what a critic got to say, I'mma be heard
[02:09]What up DZYNE? I ain't forgot *****
[02:11]You developed me, telling me I was hot *****
[02:14]You believed in me first, that's what's for sure
[02:16]At the church recording, at the garage, but it worked
[02:19]But me and Dave kind of felt you lost the passion
[02:22]A lot was going on in your life and you needed space
[02:24]But still I should have came to you first to tell you what happened
[02:27]But I was seventeen and figured it's best I stay away
[02:29]And I was wrong
[02:30]I was young and couldn't look you in the eye for what I'd done
[02:33]But I'm telling you we ain't done
[02:35]Matter of fact, how's your sons? What they up to?
[02:37]Remember they used to run away while you had worked on ProTools?
[02:39]People I used to be in the booth till four in the morning
[02:42]With school in the morning, yawning, but I was on it
[02:45]Me, you and Dave was on it
[02:46]Buzzing like Charlotte Hornets when that tape dropped
[02:48]Where them beats *****? It's been five years since we had rocked
[02:50]Time to be heard
[02:59][04:03]Listen to my nouns and verbs
[03:01]Man I wanna be heard
[03:12]So can you feel it?
[03:13]When you hear it do it pulsate your spirit?
[03:16]Does it make you wanna say ********** a gimmick?
[03:18]The truth can set you free if you Do the Right Thing
[03:21]Word to Spike Lee, don't he look like Sounwave?
[03:24]That's kinda random, but my humor sometimes strays
[03:27]Like a dog in the night
[03:28]Twenty-four hours in a day but only take five minutes
[03:31]To grab a pad and a pen, then send your dog a kite
[03:33]I spread love like a Hippy, but I'm a Black one
[03:37]With Jesus Christ passion, I swear on the bible
[03:39]Tabernacle to all my rivals, I ain't mad
[03:41]You hate a ***** for tryna help you, that's your bad
[03:44]Because I figure I can make a way with these stanzas
[03:46]I probably can't heal cancer, but I can heal the city
[03:49]My ******, tell me you with me
[03:50]And if you is won't you pop my CD in
[03:52]Open up your trunk, then let it bump
[03:55]So I can be heard
[04:05]Man I wanna be heard)
[04:18]D-Dave, what up *****?
[04:22]Matt Jeezy, hahaha...
