Really Be (Smokin N Drinkin) Lyrics - Kendrick Lamar

1 I woke up this morning, I had a boner

2 I went to sleep last night with no bitch, nigga, I was a loner

3 I be going through shit, losin' bitches and homies

4 If I don't make it with this rap shit, nigga, I might be homeless

5 My moms don't got a job, my pop's checks ain't enough

6 If ain't bringin' home that money, my whole family is fucked

7 I swear I move like the mob, I'm watchin' movies too much

8 If niggas wanted you dead, what would you suggest?

9 They wonder why I do drugs and hang with thugs

10 Since I made it the city hated, wait, where is the love?

11 I ride around with my gun, this is not for fun

12 I stay protected cause my homie just took one to the lung

13 Had him on life support, where's the family support?

14 He knew who shot him, but he ain't even show up in court

15 Yeah, that's a real G, nigga, he on a kill spree, nigga

16 The homie popped him so I hope he don't kill me, nigga

17 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

18 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

19 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

20 I be going through some things, you don't know what I've been thinkin'

21 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

22 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

23 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

24 I be going through some things, you don't know what I've been thinkin'

25 Now I'm ridin' through traffic with 2Pac blastin'

26 With a bitch that's irritatin' from all these questions she askin'

27 Like what bitches I fucked, when, how and where

28 You ain't my main bitch so why the fuck do you care

29 That's why bitches get fucked, then turn around and get left

30 Somebody need to teach them less talk, more sex

31 I'm pressed when I'm stressed, my granny tell me I'm blessed

32 Well, why the fuck do Jesus Christ got me goin' through this shit?

33 Everybody need favors, what happens if I go broke?

34 Or say I ain't got it, then buy my lolo some new spokes

35 Right up in your fake setup, fuck you up like some mace

36 So fuck your handout, give a young nigga some space

37 Give a nigga some Ace, give me a blunt that's laced

38 Sprinkle some molly in it, watch me take this shit to my face

39 The snitch is the shooter, they took time away from his case

40 Holy shit, oh lawd, where is the world today?

41 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

42 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

43 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

44 I be going through some things, you don't know what I've been thinkin'

45 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

46 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

47 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

48 I be going through some things, you don't know what I've been thinkin'

49 I swear this industry shit, to me is one big ass lick

50 I walk inside of a buildin', tell the A&R nigga strip

51 Tell 'em I need all of my chips, my life been known Section 8

52 I've been a welfare case, AFDC pump fake

53 Meanwhile I'm grindin' cause drug money ain't like rap money

54 Four white kilo snow bunny, equal one whole show, dummy

55 I'm on this tour bus and I'm fucked up, I got a bad call, they killed Braze

56 They killed Chad my big homie Pup

57 Puppy eyes in my face, bruh, and I've really been drinkin'

58 Why the fuck I've really been smokin'?

59 What the fuck, I'm the sober one

60 When I'm so stressed out I can't focus

61 Hideout when I ride out, ski mask with the eyes out

62 Speed past in the Cutlass-me and little Ocho

63 And we young nigga hop out

64 2 tears in a bucket, I feel like fuck it

65 That's the price of fame, recognize my pain, that's all I know

66 All alone, but I'm out here though

67 Call my troops like vamonos

68 I'm on this tour bus and I'm fucked up

69 I got a bad call, and it's all bad

70 Off OG with my OG and some OE, by the tall glass

71 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

72 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

73 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

74 I be going through some things, you don't know what I've been thinkin'

75 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

76 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

77 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

78 I be going through some things, you don't know what I've been thinkin'

79 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

80 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

81 That's why I really be smokin' and I really be drinkin'

82 I be going through some things, you don't know what I've been thinkin'
