Kendrick Lamar - Backwards Lyrics
[Hook: Tame Impala]It feels like I only go backwards, latelyEvery part of me says go aheadI got my hopes up again, oh no, not againFeels like we only go backwards darling[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]And we'll be screamin' out no rules, no rulesFeel the energy we go through, I told youPump my fist like I'm supposed to, I showed youMy vision of the unsocial, it's so coolLook around me and you'll see the scene, who to blame?See my generation has no shame, I play the gameHow I see it this is inside the future, this is nothin' that you're used toI refuse to play the victim, my religion is to move yaI'll jump out of position, my army head-on collisionCan't hold me out on my own skin, government need assistanceEvery time that I zone in, nothing is more convincin'Than tellin' you that I won't bend, break or fake partitionI can't, this is my life design, this is me taking mindsThis is what I live for, this is me takin' yoursThis is more than C4, this is what happens whenWe ready to build and destroy, I hope that you enjoy[Hook]It feels like I only go backwards, latelyEvery part of me says go aheadI got my hopes up again, oh no, not againFeels like we only go backwards darling[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]I live my life a rebel, a vigilante, devils try to get at mePedal through this underworld, undertakers won't catch meSystem ain't no system for justice if you would ask meI'll tell you everything is corrupted, don't you walk past meWith the condescended look I can tell you're pretendin'Like you my friends and you just a henchman, I feel relentlessI feel the tension in the air thick enough to cut through itOr cut you with it I'm cut from a cloth that bred a nuisanceTrespass on your property I am properly aimin' to go against ya democracyThis is me changing faces cause I can stand alone and die alone as long as I got prideThe victory of fight is all in my eyesThe night is young and I can see your demise, I'm waitin' for itYou can't ignore it, you live dormant, I die enormousBig as the lies you tell I can tell you feel defeatedThe truth will set you free and to me that's the only reason, capisce?[Hook]It feels like I only go backwards, latelyEvery part of me says go aheadI got my hopes up again, oh no, not againFeels like we only go backwards darling
