Kendrick Lamar - u Lyrics






[10x:]
Loving you is complicated

I place blame on you still
Place shame on you still
Feel like you ain't shit
Feel like you don't feel, confidence in yourself
Breakin' on marble floors
Watchin' anonymous strangers tellin' me that I'm yours
But you ain't shit I'm convinced your talent's nothin' special
What can I blame him for?
Nigga, I can name several
Situation had stopped with your little sister bakin'
A baby inside, just a teenager, where your patience?
Where was your antennas, where was the influence you speak of?
You preached in front of 100,000 but never reached her
I fuckin' tell you, you're fuckin' failure, you ain't no leader
I never liked you, forever despise you, I don't need you
The world don't need you, don't let them deceive you
Numbers lie too, fuck your pride too, that's for dedication
Thought money would change you, made you more complacent
I fuckin' hate you, I hope you embrace it

[5x:]
Loving you is complicated

Lovin' you, lovin' you, not lovin' you, one hundred proof
I can feel you vibin', recognize that you're ashamed of me
Yes, I hate you too

House keeping
[Knocks]
House keeping
¡Abre la puerta! ¡Abre la puerta tengo que limpiar el cuarto!
¡Es que no hay mucho tiempo tengo que limpiar el cuarto¡
!Disculpe!

And you the reason why mama and them leavin'
No, you ain't shit, you say you love them, I know you don't mean it
I know you're irresponsible, selfish, in denial, can't help it
Your trials and tribulations a burden, everyone felt it
Everyone heard it, multiple shots, corners cryin' out
You was deserted, where was your antennas again?
Where was your presence, where was your support that you pretend?
You ain't no brother, you ain't no disciple, you ain't no friend
A friend never leave Compton for profit, or leave his best friend
Little brother, you promised you'd watch him before they shot him
Where was your antennas? On the road, bottles and bitches
You FaceTime'd the one time, that's unforgiven
You even FaceTime'd instead of a hospital visit
'Cause you thought he would recover, well
The surgery couldn't stop the bleeding for real
Then he died, God himself will say, "You fuckin' failed."
You ain't try

I know your secrets nigga
Mood swings is frequent nigga
I know depression is restin' on your heart for two reasons, nigga
I know you and a couple block boys ain't been speaking, nigga
Y'all damn near beefin', I seen it and you're the reason, nigga
And if this bottle could talk [gulp] I cry myself to sleep
Bitch, everything is your fault
Faults breakin' to pieces, earthquakes on every weekend
Because you shook as soon as you knew confinement was needed
I know your secrets
Don't let me tell them to the world about that shit you thinkin'
And that time you [gulp] I'm 'bout to hurl
I'm fucked up, but ain't as fucked up as you
You just can't get right, I think your heart made of bullet proof
Shoulda killed yo ass a long time ago
You shoulda filled that black revolver blast a long time ago
And if those mirrors could talk it would say, "You gotta go."
And if I told your secrets
The world'll know money can't stop a suicidal weakness

  31. A.... S....

    We need another Kendrick Album man. He the greatest of our Generation.

    A.... S....

    Are you not entertained

  32. N.... T....

    too late to be commenting but here goes my attempt in interpreting this: when talking about “u” he’s referring to himself, about how he seemed to have influenced all of his fans, but can’t influence his friends his family, blaming himself for his sister getting pregnant, friends and family dying. the second half of this video is the song “for sale?” In this, we hear kendrick frequently rap from the point of “Lucy,” who we can assume to be “Lucifer,” telling him how great his life could be if he sells his soul to him, which is why the track is titled the way it is. In the visual we are presented with a constant change between blue and red. I interpret this as a choosing point in kendricks life: follow God, or the devil. we hear a voice in the background say “THEY SAY IF YOU SCARED GO TO CHURCH. BUT REMEMBER, HE KNOWS THE BIBLE TOO.” basically telling kendrick to choose the red/devil path. which in this video, he does. and this leads directly into DAMN. , short for “damnation.” in DAMN. kendrick chose the red path, and is given feelings from “lucy”, which are tracks like LUST. and PRIDE. , but he is faced with new sets of problems and distresses. however, in real life, we know kendrick took the “blue” path, and he changed his profile pictures on socials to blue themed photos, and the alternate cover for DAMN. is blue. i am 15 years old, sitting on my couch, 11:40 PM, realizing how much of a musical genius kendrick motherfucking lamar is.

    N.... T....

    adding to this too, a common theme on DAMN. is the phrase “ain’t nobody prayin for me” which is pretty obviously saying he chose the devils path, and no ones praying for him

    N.... T....

    i love the theory but i think he took the devil path in this video to make himself feel better, i personally think it doesnt follow all the way to DAMN. i think DAMN. has a different story but could be related, but still its a great theory.

    N.... T....

    @Nate Thomas "aint nobody praying for me", i think this quote means that no one cares about him and hes all by himself, thats why we get the song FEEL in which he talks about how theres so much pressure on him but no one cares/ praying for him.

    N.... T....

    I think he is doing the same exact thing Cole did on 4 your Eyez only. Telling a very visual story from a different perspective then what he has. Maybe Kendrick exposes the devil's work through his music but in reality, is a very different person. we might never know. All I know is if you surround yourself with "the world" you will eventually shift to "the world" and it will be much harder for you to become Christ-like.

    N.... T....

    Fernando to pimp a butterfly was made to tell a story about how kendrick rose to fame and was surrounded by temptations which were brought to him by the devil, so yeah what you’re saying makes total sense. 4 your eyes only is an incredible song too

  33. M.... N....

    Whoever think tpab is better damn is not listening . It's more cultural roots in this album in my opinion he discussed a lot of Tru problems in the black community

    M.... N....

    So which one do you prefer?

  34. R.... C....

    You the reason why mama and them leavin'
    No, you ain't shit, you say you love them
    I know you don't mean it
    I know you're irresponsible, selfish, in denial, you can't help it
    Your trials and tribulations a burden, everyone felt it
    Everyone heard it, multiple shots, corners cryin' out
    You was deserted, where was your antennas again?
    Where was your presence?
    Where was your support that you pretend?
    You ain’t no brother, you ain’t no disciple
    You ain’t no friend
    A friend never leave Compton for profit
    Or leave his best friend, little brother
    You promised you’d watch him before they shot him
    Where was your antennas?
    On the road, bottles and bitches
    You FaceTimed him one time, that's unforgiven
    You even FaceTimed instead of a hospital visit
    Guess you thought he would recover well
    Third surgery, they couldn't stop the bleeding for real
    Then he died, God himself will say, "You fuckin' failed"
    You ain't try

    R.... C....

    Ronny Cuevas that part is what gets me every time this song hella emotional but I love it

  35. R.... C....

    I place blame on you still, place shame on you still
    Feel like you ain't shit, feel like you don't feel
    Confidence in yourself, breakin' on marble floors
    Watchin' anonymous strangers, tellin' me that I'm yours
    But you ain't shit, I'm convinced your tolerance nothin' special
    What can I blame you for? Nigga, I can name several
    Situations, I'll start with your little sister bakin'
    A baby inside, just a teenager, where your patience?
    Where was your antennas?
    Where was the influence you speak of?

    You preached in front of 100,000 but never reached her
    I fuckin' tell you, you fuckin' failure—you ain't no leader!
    I never liked you, forever despise you—I don't need you!
    The world don't need you, don't let them deceive you
    Numbers lie too, fuck your pride too, that's for dedication
    Thought money would change you
    Made you more complacent
    I fuckin' hate you, I hope you embrace it
    I swear—
