Paroles de la chanson TV Off par Kendrick Lamar

[Kendrick Lamar]

All I ever wanted was a black Grand National

Fuck being rational, give 'em what they ask for

[Kendrick Lamar]

It's not enough (Ayy)

Few solid niggas left, but it's not enough

Few bitches that'll really step, but it's not enough

Say you bigger than myself, but it's not enough (Huh)

I get on they ass, yeah, somebody gotta do it

I'll make them niggas mad, yeah, somebody gotta do it

I'll take the G pass, shit, watch a nigga do it

Huh, we survived outside, all from the music, nigga, what?

[Kendrick Lamar]

They like, "What he on?"

It's the alpha and omega, bitch, welcome home

This is not a song

This a revelation, how to get a nigga gone

You need you a man, baby, I don't understand, baby

Pay your bill and make you feel protected like I can, baby

Teach you somethin' if you need correction, that's the plan, baby

Don't put your life in these weird niggas' hands, baby (Woah)

[Kendrick Lamar]

It's not enough (Ayy)

Few solid niggas left, but it's not enough

Few bitches that'll really step, but it's not enough

Say you bigger than myself, but it's not enough (Huh)

I get on they ass, yeah, somebody gotta do it

I'll make them niggas mad, yeah, somebody gotta do it

I'll take the G pass, shit, watch a nigga do it

Huh, we survived outside, all from the music, nigga, what?

[Kendrick Lamar]

Hey, turn his TV off

Ain't with my type activities? Then don't you get involved

Hey, what, huh, how many should I send? Send 'em all

Take a risk or take a trip, you know I'm trippin' for my dog

Who you with? Couple sergeants and lieutenants for the get back

This revolution been televised, I fell through with the knick-knacks

Hey, young nigga, get your chili up, yeah, I meant that

Hey, black out if they act out, yeah, I did that

Hey, what's up, though?

I hate a bitch that's hatin' on a bitch and they both hoes

I hate a nigga hatin' on them niggas and they both broke

If you ain't coming for no chili, what you come for?

Nigga feel like he entitled 'cause he knew me since a kid

Bitch, I cut my granny off if she don't see it how I see it, hm

Got a big mouth but he lack big ideas

Send him to the moon, that's just how I feel, yellin'

[Kendrick Lamar]

It's not enough (Ayy)

Few solid niggas left, but it's not enough

Few bitches that'll really step, but it's not enough

Say you bigger than myself, but it's not enough

[Kendrick Lamar]

Huh

Huh, huh

Hey

Hey (Mustard on the beat, ho)

[Kendrick Lamar]

Mustard

Niggas actin' bad, but somebody gotta do it

Got my foot up on the gas, but somebody gotta do it

Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off

Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off

Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off

Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off

[Kendrick Lamar]

Ain't no other king in this rap thing, they siblings

Nothing but my children, one shot, they disappearin'

I'm in the city where the flag be gettin' thrown like it was pass interference

Padlock around the building

Crash, pullin' up in unmarked truck just to play freeze tag

With a bone to pick like it was sea bass

So when I made it out, I made about 50K from a show

Tryna show niggas the ropes before they hung from a rope

I'm prophetic, they only talk about it how I get it

Only good for saving face, seen the cosmetics

How many heads I gotta take to level my aesthetics?

Hurry up and get your muscle up, we out the plyometric

Nigga ran up out of luck soon as I upped the highest metric

The city just made it sweet, you could die, I bet it

They mouth get full of deceit, let these cowards tell it

Walk in New Orleans with the etiquette of LA, yellin'

[Kendrick Lamar]

Mustard (Ah, man)

Niggas actin' bad, but somebody gotta do it

Got my foot up on the gas, but somebody gotta do it

Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off

Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off

Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off

Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off

[Lefty Gunplay]

Shit gets crazy, scary, spooky, hilarious

Crazy, scary, spooky, hilarious

Shit gets crazy, scary, spooky, hilarious

Crazy, scary, spooky, hilarious

Shit gets crazy, scary, spooky, hilarious

Crazy, scary, spooky, hilarious

Shit gets crazy, scary, spooky, hilarious

Crazy, scary, spooky, hilarious
