Imagine
Imagine -Kendrick Lamar （德里克·拉马尔）
I sit on the studio couch
Ask myself
What the f**k am I thinking about
Thinking 'bout living
Without the past and the present
A Dr Dre record imagine
I drift of 600seconds
10mintues exact
Letting my mind explore
K Dot had turned Curious George
You know off the hardship is
What I'm curious for
Like what if Pac had never
Looked left to holla at broads
Before he turned right to get them
Shots through the door
They say Suge did it
But he was in emergency clinic
So he'd risk his own life
To get someone else killed
But in the process get injured
It don't make sense
It's like the Da Vinci Code
Trying the solve the crime of these rap souls
What if B I G never did it big
Never went to L A
Would it make a difference
In them bullet-holes
Would it make my flow flow more persistent
Would it raise up the bar of competition
Who knows
Who told Nastradamus baby
Momma was f**king with HOV
Would the battle be less interesting
If it wasn't personal
If Jay wasn't intimate
There'd probably be less people listening
People thinking it's a publicity stunt
What if he partnered
With Jay and still didn't blow
Hip-hop would really be f**ked
Something like Milli Vanilli
Nothing different quite similar
Filling up my mind capacity
Thinking about Martin Luther
On the balcony
What if the shooter
Better yet
What if Malcolm on the side
Killed two birds with one stone
Both would've died
Now let's rewind
Before we go
Can you imagine
Picture years with your mom
Can you imagine
Hang her picture in the sky
Can you imagine
Call emergency I've been dreamin'all my life
All life
Imagine if Tookie was a Blood Look
No disrespect
But would there be more Bloods
Than Crips sets
Dominating the population of
L A Orange County the Valley
And back up to the bay
Matter fact imagine
If we didn't really start this gangster sh*t
Y'all wouldn't have nothin'to spit
No drive bys
No flags stickin'out pockets
No NWA dudes
Just rappin like Cre Cru
Imagine if Mike Concepcion
Walked on his own two
Feet no paralyzed
Would he be alive
Or would he been lost his life to the streets
No match no cars in that driveway
What if Freeway Rick never was a kingpin
On this L A strip
Would these rap niggas use his name
Nah what if rap niggas never had rap
Would they try to fall back on this drug game
These rappers a**backwards
Now these rappers getting caught
With the coc*ine
Not to smoke but to slang
Imagine that people not knowing
These rap niggas insane
Just think about it
Think about it
Before we go
Can you imagine
Picture years with your mom
Can you imagine
Hang her picture in the sky
Can you imagine
Call emergency I've been dreamin'all my life
Imagine life without death
Would you even feel alive
Your people that passed
What if they never died
Imagine seeing your mom cry
Tears of happiness
Knowing her son safe
And she ain't lose him to this madness
The street living
What if the crack epidemic
Never reached the projects
And destroyed our buildings
Turned most of us to killers
Innocent victims
Imagine if heroine didn't affect our system
They say drug money funding the labels today
What about the drug money
That's funding the C I A
Imagine if they really tried to fix these streets
Would they start in the hood
Or executive suites
Where the real criminals meet
And principals beef with me
You could possibly live without heat
Imagine if Al Gore had won that election
Would the Twin Tower buildings
Still stand erected
Imagine the penal system
Without witness protection
Would there be these many cowards
On the stand telling
I don't know
I'm just speaking my mind
Lost in my own soul
Just press rewind and imagine
Imagine imagine imagine
（day training day）
