Swimming Pools Lyrics by Kendrick Lamar

[Bridge] Pour up, drank, head shot, drank Sit down, drank, stand up, drank Pass out, drank, wake up, drank Faded, drank, faded, drank

[Verse 1]Now I done grew up Round some people living their life in bottlesGranddaddy had the golden flaskBack stroke every day in ChicagoSome people like the way it feels Some people wanna kill their sorrows Some people wanna fit in with the popularThat was my problem I was in the dark roomLoud tunes, looking to make a vow soon That I'mma get fucked up, fillin' up my cupI see the crowd moveChanging by the minute and the record on repeatTook a sip, then another sip, then somebody said to me:

[Hook]Nigga why you babysittin only 2 or 3 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 itI wave a few bottles, then I watch em all flockAll 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

[Bridge] [Bridge] Pour up, drank, head shot, drank Sit down, drank, stand up, drank Pass out, drank, wake up, drank Faded, drank, faded, drank

[Verse 2]Okay, now open your mind up and listen to me, Kendrick I'm your conscience, if you do not hear me Then you will be history, KendrickI know that you're nauseous right nowAnd I'm hopin' to lead you to victory, KendrickIf I take another one down I'mma drown in some poison abusin' my limitI 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 arrive This how you capitalizeThis is parental advice Then apparently, I'm over influenced by what you are doin'I thought I was doin' the most then someone said to me

[Hook] + [Bridge]I ride, you ride, bang One chopper, one hundred shots, bang Hop out. Do you; bang? Two chopper, two hundred shots, bang I ride, you ride, bang One chopper, one hundred shots, bang Hop out, do you, bang Two chopper, two hundred shots, bang [Hook] + [Bridge]
