In the belly of the beast, where dreams fight to feast,
Kings and queens lace their narratives with yeast -
Watch it rise, under pressure, never ceased.
Life’s a puzzle, every piece got a priest.
Hood symphonies, tales spun from the fleece,
Of reality, where survival’s a leased
Existence, borrowed time on this terrestrial crease,
Where the music’s the savior, and the pain, it's the beast.
Listen, the system’s rhythm’s got a fatal twist,
A pipeline - not for oil - but futures dismissed.
Every bar spit, is a story, not just a hit,
Life sentences in verses, the irony we enlist.
Skin like night, dreams bright, but the cuffs persist,
Destined for the block, but it’s the block they resist.
Education or incarceration? Flip the script,
It’s the color of your justice, in black and white, it's kissed.
From concrete roses, the poets arise,
Spitting bars behind bars, under surveillance skies.
Their truth is heavy, dense with the wise,
Double entendres, life’s lows and highs.
For every tale of ascension, there’s a descent,
A system designed for just one percent.
But words weave through the wire, intent
On breaking cycles, on the pavement, they’re
, they’re spent.
Now, let me articulate, with precision, a new narrative,
One where our youth are more than just comparative.
Statistics in a game, where the stakes are imperative,
Our voices, our choices, both are declarative.
We’re more than our past, our future’s not captive,
The power of our stories, beautifully adaptive.
From the hood to the mic, it’s our prerogative,
To redefine the game, in lanes, we’re active.
So here’s to the unseen, to the unheard,
To the stories untold, to the lines blurred.
Let the beats drop, let our truth be stirred,
Kendrick’s call to action, in every word.
It’s not just music, it’s our lives unfurled,
Against the odds, like flags, we’re twirled.
In every rhyme, a revolution swirled,
A new world envisioned, in verses, pearled.
[Verse 1: Kendrick's Vision]
In the belly of the beast, where dreams fight to feast,
Kings and queens lace their narratives with yeast -
Watch it rise, under pressure, never ceased.
Life’s a puzzle, every piece got a priest.
Hood symphonies, tales spun from the fleece,
Of reality, where survival’s a leased
Existence, borrowed time on this terrestrial crease,
Where the music’s the savior, and the pain, it's the beast.
[Verse 2: Double Meanings]
Listen, the system’s rhythm’s got a fatal twist,
A pipeline - not for oil - but futures dismissed.
Every bar spit, is a story, not just a hit,
Life sentences in verses, the irony we enlist.
Skin like night, dreams bright, but the cuffs persist,
Destined for the block, but it’s the block they resist.
Education or incarceration? Flip the script,
It’s the color of your justice, in black and white, it's kissed.
[Verse 3: Contrasts and Comparisons]
From concrete roses, the poets arise,
Spitting bars behind bars, under surveillance skies.
Their truth is heavy, dense with the wise,
Double entendres, life’s lows and highs.
For every tale of ascension, there’s a descent,
A system designed for just one percent.
But words weave through the wire, intent
On breaking cycles, on the pavement, they’re
, they’re spent.
[Verse 4: Kendrick’s Challenge]
Now, let me articulate, with precision, a new narrative,
One where our youth are more than just comparative.
Statistics in a game, where the stakes are imperative,
Our voices, our choices, both are declarative.
We’re more than our past, our future’s not captive,
The power of our stories, beautifully adaptive.
From the hood to the mic, it’s our prerogative,
To redefine the game, in lanes, we’re active.
[Outro: A Call to Rise]
So here’s to the unseen, to the unheard,
To the stories untold, to the lines blurred.
Let the beats drop, let our truth be stirred,
Kendrick’s call to action, in every word.
It’s not just music, it’s our lives unfurled,
Against the odds, like flags, we’re twirled.
In every rhyme, a revolution swirled,
A new world envisioned, in verses, pearled.
