Lamar, Kendrick - Ignorance Is Bliss Lyrics
Lord forgive me
[Verse 1:]
Kill him where he stand or stand over him shake his hand
Then jump back in that mini van, double back to his block
I'm a back em down like Shaq with this black 2-2-3 in my hand
Better pray that this chopper jam, like a radio single, man
Police radio signals sayin' that a 187 land on your corner,
Coroners comfort your mama, mama he's dead,
The next morning high toasted up with my homies
We drink and smoke marijuana, want us to change our ways? Uh-huh
You see this game we play come from uncles that raised me in Compton
Ask me what I have accomplished
I don't know I don't have conscience
I just load up and start dumpin' on enemies I'm head hunting
Protect ya neck cause they comin' for set respects split your onion
Then chop your deck your head tumblin' like gymnastics
Cause ignorance is bliss
[Verse 2:]
This the hardest shit you've heard from LA this far
And I'm this far, from a discharge but never will I dish off
We all tryna ball and when I got the rock I'll dish off
Until the day I pistol whip you posers till ya'll pissed off
Then peel off, in a hooptie
Come back and make these niggas wanna shoot me
And they bitches wanna salute me or seduce me
Indubitably I'm too street
Indubitably I'm a do me
Better than your bitch would
But you niggas too weak, but just give me 2 weeks
And I'm good
I'll make an album that'll put a smile on Malcolm
Make Martin Luther tell God I'm the future for Heaven's talent
No tarot card reading I'm foreseeing you niggas vanish
Not only from the rap game, I'm including the planet
Cats so watered down clowns can sink Titanic
Tie titanium around their neck and watch em panic
Give me respect, dammit, or get damaged
Die young, corpse identified by your parents
Apparently you a parrot
Mocking me and my blueprint
But I won't share it just make you cop it then call you a sheriff
Stop it, I'm hearin' the comments
The critics are calling me conscious
But truthfully, every shooter be callin' me Compton
So truthfully, only calling me Kweli and Common?
Proves, that ignorance is bliss
[Verse 3:]
And this still the hardest shit you've heard from LA this far
And I'm this far, from a discharge but never will I dish off
This my world, I grab the universe then play kickball
And they wonder why these California earthquakes hit so hard
I'm so-Cal, you so called
Rappers need to go call
Ghostbusters to shoot busters I'm Casper when I go off
I show up, to show out to show off
You a hundred percent behind me
And if you hard then wreck your car and walk up to my crime scene
I remember being 17 wishing someone would sign me
Now the only way these labels get me back is when they rewind me
Backin' down boggins
Backin' down bitches
We gon' flip her once she off that blue dolphin
You gon' tip her
Cause ignorance is bliss
And Willy B I'm a fool on yo beats, I bleed out the speaker
As the speaker that spoke when they done speak

Nigga said no tarrot card reading TUFF

22 yrs old now and damn KDot i feel you more and more each year been along time since 15 yrs old
Damn he killed it
The amount of bars. The flow. Kendrick the goat for this one, the message is crazy too
Who could listen to this and not feel the talent?
The amount of lyricism, wordplay, flow, cadence, and punchlines in this song is astonishing. Kendrick’s bars are so hard, your head can explode on impact. Kendrick’s bars were so hard, all i could do is chuckle at his lyrical prowess
1. OD
2. GKMC
3. Section 80
4. TPAB
5. DAMN
(This is just my opinion, putting DAMN at n° 5 doesn't mean that it kendrick worst album or work.. i mean this rank my heart reaction and jam to every single masterpiece by king K).
Kendrick KRIT Cole Drake wale no specific order
I'd put Joey up there too
Switch wale and drake with Joey and Earl
K dot is a goat
Definitely one of my top 5 in my playlist also average joe👍
still the hardest shit I heard from LA this far
Lyrically gifted .. Kendrick one of the greatest to grace this earth 🔥🔥🗣
Lord forgive me
Kill him where he stand and stand over him, shake his hand
Then jump back in that mini van, double back to his block and blam I ain't backing down for nothing
I'ma back em down like Shaq with this black 2-2-3 in my hand
Better pray that this chopper jam like a radio single, man
Police radio signals sayin' that a 187 land on your corner
Coroners comfort your mama
"Mama he's dead", the next morning I toasted up with my homies
We drink and smoke marijuana, want us to change our ways? Uh-huh
You see this game we play come from uncles that raised me in Compton
Ask me what I have accomplished I don't know I don't have conscience
I just load up and start dumpin' on enemies; I'm head hunting
No sympathy, ain't no love when you in these streets just get something
Protect ya neck cuz they comin' for sets, respect, split your onion
Then chop your deck your head tumblin' like gymnastics
Cause ignorance is bliss
Now everybody put your hands up high
If you don't give a fuck, put your hands up high
This the hardest shit you've heard from LA this far
And I'm this far, from a discharge but never will I dish off
We all tryna ball and when I got the rock I'll dish off
Until the day I pistol whip you posers till ya'll pissed off
Then peel off, in a hooptie
Come back and make these niggas wanna shoot me
And they bitches wanna salute me or seduce me
Indubitably I'm too street
Indubitably I'mma do me
Better than your bitch would
But you niggas too weak, but just give me 2 weeks and I'm good
I'll make an album that'll put a smile on Malcolm
Make Martin Luther tell God I'm the future for Heaven's talent
No tarot card reading; I'm foreseeing you niggas vanish
Not only from the rap game, I'm including the planet
Cats so watered down clowns can sink Titanic
Tie titanium around their neck and watch em panic
Give me respect, dammit, or get damaged
Die young, corpse identified by your parents
Apparently you're a parrot
Mocking me and my blueprint

So truthfully, only calling me Kweli and Common?
Proves that ignorance is bliss
Now everybody put your hands up high
If you don't give a fuck, put your hands up high
And this still the hardest shit you've heard from LA this far
And I'm this far, from a discharge but never will I dish off
This my world, I grab the universe then play kickball
And they wonder why these California earthquakes hit so hard
I'm So-Cal, you so-called rappers need to go call
Ghostbusters to shoot busters I'm Casper when I go off
I show up, to show out and show off
You a hundred percent behind me
And if you hard then wreck your car and walk up to my crime scene
I remember being 17 wishing someone would sign me
Now the only way these labels get me back is when they rewind me
Backin' down bargains
Backin' down bitches
We gon' flip her once she off that blue dolphin
You gon' tip her
Cuz ignorance is bliss
And Willie B, I'm a fool on yo beats, I bleed out the speaker as the speaker that spoke when they didn't speak
J cole and Lamar 🐐’s
I MISS THIS KENNY
Overly dedicated 4eva
The greatest MC of all time.
Too bad he sold out

Still here in 2019.
Who with me?
Fun fact: dre wanted to work with kendrick after hearing this song
Ignorance is bliss 2019 8, 15😎🌍🌴🔥..
I hear this song to calm down
Lol these bars are lagging my phone out
I can really hear that Andre 3000 inspiration in this one. This track honestly sounds a lot like an OutKast track and i thinks why i get mad goosebumps on this joint
Damn fire bro
Why is this so underrated?
Underrated.
Kendrick is dope
“And they wonder why these California earthquakes is hitting so hard”
this is the first song i heard by k dot and was hooked
So glad I got gems like these that are timeless
Who still listening in 2019??
Still. Kendrick the 🐐
Reminisin to 2013
and willie B im a fool on your beats i bleed out the speaker as the speaker that spoke when they didnt speak. sheeesh
Been listening to kendrick since 2013 but this the first time i hear this song 🔥🔥🔥
And willie B I’m a fool on your beats I bleed out the speaker as the speaker that spoke when they didn’t speak...
~Kendrick Lamar
3:00 best part of the song
WORDS 😩🔥 .
Who's still listing in "2019" !?!?
Should have 50 million views
It's so good
The chosen one.
AND WILLY B IMA FOOL ON YO BEATS I BLEED OUT THE SPEAKER AS THE SPEAKER THAT SPOKE WHEN THEY DIDNT SPEAK
This song is soo reall mann, I was just getting into middle school when this album dropped... this is definitely one of the best masterpieces by kendrick Lamar , I'm still listening to this in 2019 , kendrick Lamar is a God and should be respected like one. 💯💯💯
Mike Doubleo god not God
It's a shame that many don't know about or care for his early masterpieces. Ignorance is bliss.
I agree
Then they ain't real kdot fans
Flows too cold on this 1, i always come back
The way the beat comes in at the beginning is just fuego
No they don't know!
Listening to this by myself, and still look to the side like “yo, you hear this shit ?” 🔥🔥🔥
This is were I come to think
Still better than
The wack shit that be playing on the radio
By far
Its 2019 and this song still SLAP!
I have to be careful cus I no , I go back to my hell now, and IAM supper cry babey tonight cus I no my life is over back to my gray sad life were flowers don't have a smell or collar , IAM just back to dumb fuck were people u love will renig, cus they don't care about my kids , an at work if I mess one thing up IAM uniployed, haveing to much love gets u killed. I hate rap but if I don't check in I mite die soon. Not much left of me so I pretend to smile, just saying , I onley fit in with u guys and no one else . Tde made me feel like I was cared about real talk, I can't check on q cus in my head we hang out he comes over an smokes . I wish I could stop crying bro for real but it sucks I live in hell everything I love dies . This is the same feeling when my mom's died . IAM ah bitch dude for real but I love to much I hate good buys , I can't be a side show and my work hates I am happy with music . IAM lost bro for real . Cus music makes me happy ism not a dumb fuck their .
I don’t even need to comment how flame it is, if you see this you already know...
Can intelligence be bliss?
It’s safe to say that Kendrick past Eminem... He is no longer The Greatest... Kendrick is.
Yeah i think its safe enough.
Noooooo not safe ..not safe at all .. why yall do this🙅♂️noo man noo .. think again
DeathRow 29 em was never the greatest nas was
Kendrick Lamar: the type of *LYRICIST* that doesn't need a beat.
The beat needs him, _indubitably_ 💪🙌✊
such an underrated comment
Put this track forza please 🙏
I'll make an album that'll put a smile on Malcolm make Martin Luther tell God I'm the future for Heaven's talent🙏🏾
