Thanksgiving

[Intro]

Reporting live from Compton, California

North Cackalack

[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]

Now everybody just bow to the greatness or die in the matrix

You're hereby datin', my destiny's waitin'

My itinerary is very hectic

I break records on every record, I'm truly reckless

Kendrick Lamar, no Audemar on my wrist

It's arthritis from holdin' it down, bitch

Me and my down bitch, get busy

I'm busy takin' over

The world with the weight of the world on my shoulder

My drive is not to be chauffeured

I'm live, come to the harvest, welcome the artist

Whose lyrics out of the orbit

More than the hardest rapper to hit the market

And market myself as a shootin' target

With offers that got me up in these offices often

Boo-yaa, who ya? No one, I've done situated myself, I ain't lyin'

Be sure to befriend 'cause my foes die five times

The good kid from the mad city

Holdin' a cereal box instead of a Glock

In a 1992 Cadillac that I got from my pops

Transmission slippin', but I ain't trippin', swallow my pride

Pop in my tape and roll the window down

Like Stacie homie when airing out indo'

I wish a nigga would

[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

Kendrick, show these motherfuckers how we rock

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

Big Pooh, show these motherfuckers how we rock

[Verse 2: Rapper Big Pooh]

Yo, it's evident, I'm evidently your favorite

All I ask, open your ears and please savor it

The taste is un-acquired, quietly been inspired

I'm at a point in my life when I was gettin' tired

Now I'm brushin' off the dust

We don't need no water, fire burned it to the dust

Nigga grind hard, roaches turnin' into musk

People hear his pain, I consider that a plus

I'm a grown man, so a few I have trust to Do the Right Thing

The Spike thing, consider me the in-between

The new regime takin' over

Either we each other's opposition or you soldier

Used to have the whole state of NC on my shoulder then I passed it

Off to the next, you unlucky bastard

I'm gettin' drunk same time every year

To celebrate the life, Rosie no longer here

I swear

[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

Kendrick, show these motherfuckers how we rock

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

Big Pooh, show these motherfuckers how we rock

[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar & Rapper Big Pooh]

Me and Big Pooh like the definition of a two-man city zoo

Even Zeus can get beat up from punchlines

When I kick it and pump mine, I gotta be a prophet

I gotta make a profit big enough to have a thirty pound wallet

I'm a Hub City representer, so I gotta represent the

City like a District Attorney beatin' the case for killers

Might walk around in a gurney, this is my sickest winter

Since I had the flu and flew in the hospital with the shivers

U-P-S, I deliver

Little brown boy get the pick of the litter

No glitter, all guts, no glory

Station on repeat, they retread the same story

New niggas bore me, tryna put rest to that old shit

Have a plate, that food for your soul tip

Drill it in your head, youngin', this that real Hip–

Hop along 'fore you get your little ass whipped

[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

Kendrick, show these motherfuckers how we rock

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

A yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop

Big Pooh, show these motherfuckers how we rock
