[Kendrick Let me tell you it all started Game dropped Documentary and made enemies It was a classic album, but prior to Guerilla Black and put the city on wax A lot of Biggie comparisons, we all was aware of But that my M.O., I just thought he was dope Can't understand why Game would say his in that manner Many went by, still no legitimate answer Anyway, I put out a mixtape in grade Hub City threat, minor of the year, DJ And his brother designed, put together the Put it out to the people, the people said I was With the flow, to the barbershop to show off my skills and Himey and some other cat said I was real Himey was Games barber, the cat made a statement Saying Game was his partner, so I gave him my tape Said he'd it for him, hoping that I'd get my big break But never got a response.. This nigga named ?Pop came to my school with a camera I on his DVD for a minute then after It hit the streets, I was known as K. Dot Compton Man Hootie probably was the youngest out that was But I didn't a home yet, Hootie had ? in me Until I met Top Dawg, told Dave that like to meet Me at the studio, me freestyle for an hour me come back tomorrow, but I came back in a hour Jay Rock was in the booth, his first mixtape Was skeptical homie at first because he knew I stayed But we got that, heard the beat, wrote a rap Did our first collaboration on the track He got signed months later, Brothers We started on his album, he wrote his rhymes on Sidekicks became a modern day phone Same time our was generated from G Malone He had a song called 200, White Lightnin, the loved it that Sony had gave him an unbelievable budget Now that's a smart nigga, I'm tryna make my raps bigger than But not how to market it right Turned on the Only cat he knew the West Coast was playin' was Bishop And by this nigga' buzz was tremendous In the lab, me and Rock tryna our craft What the fuck? Next you know, we came across Lift Me Up It was a hit I heard it But all we had was the and the hook But Rock on it for certain, it was to smash Gave it to Julio, to get his opinion Next you know, the record was That was a good look, it set the coast on in Garden projects presents Watts Riot Then these rappers start hating, up to the station Ask why they record ain't playin', you niggas complaining, about? Shit was to us tho Niggas hate to see a nigga from the bottom up, yo In the midst of the poppin' and niggas tryna seek and destroy I had a situation with Def Jam, went sour after Jay-Z left but they didn't care I was Jay-Z gave me respect See I was young, fast forward, hot had the streets on lock Far as play, obvious, he got a lot Beefing' with Daz Dilinger, Jay Rock on it Which in my opinion, I didn't think the was impo'tant But that's a 'nother story, we hit the lab with Game And a few names like Juice and Young, ya boy Did the freestyle and everybody's like, "Wow" Top Dawg niggas 'bout to make noise" Surely after took us on tour, I love you for that But right that, we didn't see him no more G Malone came a smash hit with Akon Mistah FAB battled Nickel with napalm Then everybody start to scream out the new And claim that Coast legends don't want to see him at best I think that's just an excuse, because their music ain't Tell 'em Ab-soul said it, they can quote him twice Then Crooked I came with Weekly, killin' the internet But he been a threat since Deathrow, then came about And all I about was Ab-Soul 2-11-2 It finally started to look like the West was moves Western had the whole block boomin' because of Snoop Matter fact, Bad Luck was my favorite about the ?Problem? took off, another Compton native We both Compton niggas, but still ain't made it By time, Jay Rock and All My Life hit the airwaves We almost got some major beef over Lil' Wayne That I'mma leave out Theres certain things that the streets only should know out to Nipsey Bishop win that game, then had a fight ? That's when I C4 and had the critics mad at me Because they didn't see my views, grab the hottest album out and it a goddamn power move stupid You foolish, don't know about this war shit Theres mo' shit to wanting to be the king of the coast
