ELEMENT. (OG) lyrics
by Kendrick Lamar
[Chorus]
I know, I can’t afford to stop
For I know much
Cuz I’m just too soon, to forget-
I know, I can’t afford to stop
For I know much
Cuz I’m just out of reach of your finger
[Verse]
I'm willin' to die for this sh*t
I done cried for this sh*t, might take a life for this sh*t
Put the Bible down and go eye for an eye for this sh*t
D-O-T my enemy, won't catch a vibe for this sh*t, ayy
I been stomped out in front of my mama
My daddy commissary made it to commas
b*tch, all my grandmas dead
So ain't nobody prayin' for me, I'm on your head, ayy
Thirty millions later, know the feds watchin'
Auntie on my Telegram like, "Be cautious!"
I be hangin' out at Tam's, I be on Stockton
I don't do it for the 'Gram, I do it for Compton
I'm willin' to die for this sh*t, n*gga
I'll take your f*ckin' life for this sh*t, n*gga
We ain't goin' back to broke family sellin' dope
That's why you maney-ass rap n*ggas better know
[Chorus]
I know, I can’t afford to stop
For I know much
Cuz I’m just too soon, to forget-
I know, I can’t afford to stop
For I know much
Cuz I’m just out of reach of your finger
