Swimming Pools (Drank) Lyrics By Kendrick Lamar

    produced by tminus

    pour up drank head shot drank
    sit down drank stand up drank
    pass out drank wake up drank
    faded drank faded drank

    now i done grew up ’round some people livin’ their life in bottles
    granddaddy had the golden flask
    backstroke every day in chicago
    some people like the way it feels
    some people wanna kill their sorrows
    some people wanna fit in with the popular that was my problem
    i was in a dark room loud tunes
    lookin’ to make a vow soon
    that i’ma get fucked up fillin’ up my cup i see the crowd mood
    changin’ by the minute and the record on repeat
    took a sip then another sip then somebody said to me

    nigga why you babysittin’ only two or three shots
    i’ma 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 it
    i wave a few bottles then i watch ’em all flock
    all the girls wanna play baywatch
    i got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it
    pool full of liquor i’ma dive in it

    refrain
    pour up drank head shot drank
    sit down drank stand up drank
    pass out drank wake up drank
    faded drank faded drank

    okay now open your mind up and listen me kendrick
    i am your conscience if you do not hear me
    then you will be history kendrick
    i know that you’re nauseous right now
    and i’m hopin’ to lead you to victory kendrick
    if i take another one down
    i’ma drown in some poison abusin’ my limit
    i 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 arrived
    this how you capitalize this is parental advice
    then apparently i’m overinfluenced by what you are doin’
    i thought i was doin’ the most ’til someone said to me

    nigga why you babysittin’ only two or three shots
    i’ma 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 it
    i wave a few bottles then i watch ’em all flock
    all the girls wanna play baywatch
    i got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it
    pool full of liquor i’ma dive in it

    refrain
    pour up drank head shot drank
    sit down drank stand up drank
    pass out drank wake up drank
    faded drank faded drank

    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

    nigga why you babysittin’ only two or three shots
    i’ma 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 it
    i wave a few bottles then i watch ’em all flock
    all the girls wanna play baywatch
    i got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it
    pool full of liquor i’ma dive in it

    refrain
    pour up drank head shot drank
    sit down drank stand up drank
    pass out drank wake up drank
    faded drank faded drank

    interlude sherane
    pool full of kendrick’s lies in it
    aw man… where is she takin’ me
    where is she takin’ me
    pool full of liquor ima die in it

    all i have in life is my new appetite for failure
    and i got hunger pain that grow insane
    tell me do that sound familiar
    if it do then you’re like me
    makin’ excuse that your relief
    is in the bottom of the bottle and the greenest indo leaf
    as the window open i release
    everything that corrode inside of me
    i see you jokin’ why you laugh
    don’t you feel bad i probably sleep
    and never ever wake up never ever wake up never ever wake up
    in god i trust but just when i thought i had enough

    they stomped the homie out over a bitch
    kdot you good blood
    now we can drop ye we can drop you back off
    that nigga’s straight man that nigga ain’t trippin’
    we gon’ do the same ol’ shit
    i’ma pop a few shots they gon’ run they gon’ run opposite ways
    fall right in ‘s lap
    and he gon’ tear they ass up simple as that
    and i hope that bitch that set him up out there
    we gon’ pop that bitch too
    wait hold up ayy i see somebody
    car door opens and gunshots are fired
    aha got them niggas kdot you good
    l you good
    yeah blood i’m good dave you good
    dave dave say somethin’ dave
    these bitchass niggas killed my brother
