Swimming Pools Lyrics - Kendrick Lamar

Pour up (Drank) Head shot (Drank) 

Sit down (Drank) Stand up (Drank) 

Pass out (Drank) Wake up (Drank) 

Faded (Drank) Faded (Drank) 

Now I done grew up 'round some people livin' their life in bottles 

Granddaddy had the golden flask, backstroke every day in Chicago 

Some people like the way it feels, some people wanna kill their sorrows 

Some people wanna fit in with the popular, that was my problem 

I was in a dark room, loud tunes, looking to make a vow soon 

That I'ma get fucked up, fillin' up my cup, I see the crowd mood 

Changin' by the minute and the record on repeat 

Took a sip then another sip, then somebody said to me:

Nigga, why you babysitting only two or three shots? 

I'mma show you how to turn it up a notch 

First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it 

Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it 

I wave a few bottles, then I watch 'em all flock 

All the girls wanna play Baywatch 

I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it 

Pool full of liquor, I'mma dive in it 

Pour up (Drank) Head shot (Drank) 

Sit down (Drank) Stand up (Drank) 

Pass out (Drank) Wake up (Drank) 

Faded (Drank) Faded (Drank)

Okay, now open your mind up and listen me, Kendrick 

I am your conscience, if you do not hear me, then you will be history, Kendrick 

I know that you're nauseous right now and I'm hopin' to lead you to victory, Kendrick 

If I take another one down, I'ma drown in some poison, abusin' my limit 

I think that I'm feelin' the vibe, I see the love in her eyes, I see the feelin' 

The freedom is granted as soon as the damage of vodka arrived 

This how you capitalize, this is parental advice 

Then apparently I'm over influenced by what you are doin' 

I thought I was doin' the most 'til someone said to me: 

Nigga, why you babysitting only two or three shots? 

I'mma show you how to turn it up a notch 

First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it 

Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it 

I wave a few bottles, then I watch 'em all flock 

All the girls wanna play Baywatch 

I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it 

Pool full of liquor, I'mma dive in it 

Pour up (Drank) Head shot (Drank) 

Sit down (Drank) Stand up (Drank) 

Pass out (Drank) Wake up (Drank) 

Faded (Drank) Faded (Drank) 

I ride, you ride, bang 

One chopper, one hundred shots, bang 

Hop out, do you bang? 

Two chopper, two hundred shots, bang 

Nigga, why you babysitting only two or three shots? 

I'mma show you how to turn it up a notch 

First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it 

Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it 

I wave a few bottles, then I watch 'em all flock 

All the girls wanna play Baywatch 

I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it 

Pool full of liquor, I'mma dive in it

(Sherane) 

Aw man... where is she taking me... 

Where is she taking me... 

All I have in life is my new appetite for failure 

And I got hunger, pain, that grow insane 

Tell me, do that sound familiar? 

If it do, then you're like me 

Makin' excuse that your relief 

Is in the bottom 

Of a bottle 

And the greenest indo leaf 

As the window open I release everything that corrode inside of me 

I see you jokin' 

Why you laugh? 

Don't you feel bad? 

I probably sleep 

And never ever wake up 

Never ever wake up, never ever wake up 

In God I trust, but just when I thought I had enough 

They stomped the homie out over a bitch? 

K-dot, you good, blood? 

Now we can drop, ye we can drop you back off 

That nigga's straight man, that nigga ain't tripping 

We gon' do the same ol' shit 

I'mma pop a few shots, they gon' run, they gon' run opposite ways 

Fall right in ----'s lap 

And he gon' tear they ass up, simple as that 

And I hope that bitch that set him up out there, we gon' pop that bitch too 

Wait hold up, aye I see somebody 

(Car door opens and gunshots are fired) 

Aha! Got them niggas, K-dot, you good? 

L----, you good? 

Yeah blood, I'm good, Dave, you good? 

Dave? Dave, say something - Dave? 

These bitch ass niggas killed my brother!
