[Intro: Ab-Soul]

My nigga, what it look like?

[Verse: Kendrick Lamar]

Niggas hatin', bitches hatin', babies dyin'

Bullets flyin', helicopters, police sirens, preachers lying

Genocism, criticism, unemployment, racism

Burning buildings, AIDS victims, cancer killin', no cure

Oil spillin', turmoil, poverty-stricken, police brutality

Kickin' ass of us Africans, hostages in Afghanistan

Not to mention another prison, child molesting

Cow intestines, Botox injections, earthquakes that's government tested

Secret society weapon, opium plant manifested

Then turn to crack, then invested amongst us Blacks, just a message

To hold us back, great depression amongst Iraq, no direction, no Google map

Just a Tec for the soo-woop swerving, izuzu, then blap-blap-blap

Adolescents go cuckoo, mothers are boo-hoo crying

The governor keeps us starvin', these commercials keep us buyin'

These cigarettes supermarkets fill up our liver with triumph

Distincted livin' with science, no place to live in, no Zion

See that's forbidden, we fryin'

My nigga, what it look like?

That's exactly what Hell look like

[Chorus: Alori Joh]

Tell it like it is nigga, tell it like it is, homeboy

Tell it like it is nigga, tell it like it is, tell them what's up!

Tell it like it is nigga, tell it like it is, homeboy

Tell it like it is nigga, tell it like it is, tell them what's up!

[Interlude: Ab-Soul]

My nigga, what it look like?

[Outro: Kendrick Lamar]

Malcolm laughing, Martin laughing, Biggie spittin'

Pac is rapping, Gregory tappin', people singing, bells is ringing

Children playing, angels praying, 14 karat golden streets, collard greens

Red wine, potato yams, turkey legs, calling every human being...
