tv off Lyrics by Kendrick Lamar

All I ever wanted was a Black Grand National– bein’ rational, give ’em what they ask for
There’s not enough (ay)Few solid – left, but it’s not enoughFew – that’ll really step, but it’s not enoughSay you bigger than myself, but it’s not enough (huh)I get on they -, yeah, somebody gotta do itI make ’em – mad, yeah, somebody gotta do itI take a G-pass, yeah, watch a – do it (huh)We survived outside, all from the music, -, what?
They like, “What he on?”It’s the Alpha and Omega, -, welcome homeThis is not a songThis a revelation, “How to get a – gone”You need your man, baby, I don’t wanna slam, babyPay your bill and make you feel protected like I can, babyTeach you somethin’ if you need correction, that’s the plan, babyDon’t put your life in these weird – hands, baby (wop)
There’s not enough (ay)Few solid – left, but it’s not enoughFew – that’ll really step, but it’s not enoughSay you bigger than myself, but it’s not enough (huh)I get on they -, yeah, somebody gotta do itI make ’em – mad, yeah, somebody gotta do itI take a G-pass, yeah, watch a – do it (huh)We survived outside, all from the music, -, what?
Hey, turn this TV offAin’t with my type activities? Then don’t you get involvedHey, what, huh, how many – I seen? Seen ’em allTake a rest or take a trip, you know I’m trippin’ for my dawgWho you with? Couple sergeants and lieutenants for the get-backThis revolution been televised, I fell through with the knick-knacksHey, young -, get your chili up, yeah, I meant thatHey, blackout if they act out, yeah, I did that
Hey, what’s up, dawg?I hate a – that’s hatin’ on a – and they both –I hate a – hatin’ on ’em – and they both brokeIf you ain’t comin’ for no chili, what you come for?– feel like he entitled ’cause he knew me since a kid-, I cut my granny off, if she won’t see it how I see itHm, got a big mouth, but he lack big ideasSend him to the moon, that’s just how I feel yellin’
There’s not enough (ay)Few solid – left, but it’s not enoughFew – that’ll really step, but it’s not enoughSay you bigger than myself, but it’s not enough
Huh, huh, huhHey, hey (Mustard on the beat, -)
Mustard– actin’ bad, but somebody gotta do itGot my foot up on the gas, but somebody gotta do itHuh, turn this TV off, turn this TV offHuh, turn this TV off, turn this TV offHuh, turn this TV off, turn this TV offHuh, turn this TV off, turn this TV off
Ain’t no other king in this rap thing, they siblingsNothin’ but my children, one shot, they disappearin’I’m in a city where the flag be gettin’ thrown like it wasPass interference, padlock around the buildin’Crash, pullin’ up in a marked truck just to play freeze tagWith a bone to pick, like it was sea bassSo when I made it out, I made about 50K from a showTryna show – the ropes before they hung from a rope
I’m prophetic, they only talk about it, I get itOnly good for savin’ face, seen the cosmeticsHow many heads I gotta take to level my aesthetics?Hurry up and get your muscle up, we out to plyometric– ran up out of luck soon as I up the highest metricThe city just made it sweet, you could die, I bet itThey mouth get full of deceit, let these cowards tell itWalk in New Orleans with the etiquette of LA, yellin’
Mustard (oh, man)– actin’ bad, but somebody gotta do itGot my foot up on the gas, but somebody gotta do itHuh, turn this TV off, turn this TV offHuh, turn this TV off, turn this TV offHuh, turn this TV off, turn this TV offHuh, turn this TV off, turn this TV off
– gets crazy, scary, spooky, hilariousCrazy, scary, spooky, hilarious– gets crazy, scary, spooky, hilariousCrazy, scary, spooky, hilarious– gets crazy, scary, spooky, hilariousCrazy, scary, spooky, hilarious– gets crazy, scary, spooky, hilariousCrazy, scary, spooky, hilarious
