[Kendrick Lamar - Intro]

We on?

Aight

1, 2, 3, go! [Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]

Waking up in a dream

Sleepwalking on another big stage

You never heard peace 'til you hear people scream

Your name and your song, I'm so far away

From the place I used to be, struggling usually

Look at the newer me, fate pursuing me

I can feel the energy in the air

It feel like I'm supposed to here [Verse 2: Mary J. Blige]

Everywhere I go I'm getting so much love

Fans, the stars, everyone

Sayin how they can't wait for the LP

And I'm gonna blow

They believe in me

Feel so good in what you do

Helps somebody else get through

That's why I do the best I can

Because I know how blessed I am [Hook]

I'm so high I can touch the sky

I know it's my time

And it's now or never

I shine so bright I light the night

And it feels so right, ain't nothing better [Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]

A fool if I take it all for granted

A smart man if I keep my feet planted

To the earth cause the people that hurt can understand it

You speakin' outlandish

I'mma show you how to make it all work

Another plan, it a short term goal for me

A reconcile for me

It's just more of and me and you're here

For you to hear Kendrick persevere

Defenses I feel relentless

And visual with a clear vision

Takin' off I ain't takin off these Pistons

I'm takin' off on the inner me - you're distance

Came across me, how much it'a cost me

To get you out my business

I set a plan, it's a short term goal, no sky is the limit

I'm past that, now pass that

Award, not one but four

Times two plus yours [Hook: Mary J. Blige]

I see myself performing there (K.dot)

Sold out shows where the room is packed

Sitting at the Grammy's winning five awards

See myself on big billboards

Traveling around the world with endorsement deals

Can't imagine how it feels

That's why I'm smiling everyday

Because my dream ain't far away [Hook]

I'm so high I can touch the sky

I know it's my time

And it's now or never

I shine so bright I light the night

And it feels so right, ain't nothing better [Verse 4:Kendrick Lamar]

You looking at me and you tell me I'm blessed

Calculated my steps, my heart, my breath

Breathe hums? of a victory and vividly

You see me when at my best, my worst

This verse dedicated to the days that I slept

With a curse research my paid dues I'm reimbursed

I burst in the crowd with a voice and crown

I'm a King on the prowl and I (seem I'm a smile)?

And I vow on the tape that I'll never break

You can break bread with me now

We can all take a bow on the edge of the pedestal

Then scream out loud that we made it off the avenue

And walked that mile

In the darkness I often sit back

And get lost in the rap that I wrote

When you told me that it spoke to your soul

I was talking to you

I was walking it through every ghetto

Tell success hello

We here [Hook: Mary J. Blige]

And I'm so happy I cry

Cause I can't believe

All the things I ever wanted

Are finally happening for me

And it's so surreal

That I almost feel

Any minute I can wake up

From this fantasy

When you pray so hard

And you've come so far

And you know that it's the time for you lift your?

And I'm gunna do it

Watch me [Hook]

I'm so high I can touch the sky

I know it's my time

And it's now or never

I shine so bright I light the night

And it feels so right, ain't nothing better

(Repeat 2x)
