That's my favorite verse from this song

[@liamforan4105]

I thought at first when I first listened to this, I thought it was like a fun sort of party song, but than going deeper into the lyrics, you realize it’s actually about the portrayal of alcoholism which is a great problem in society and with many people.

[@pairofnunz]

Then it turned into a fight song in the movie Uncut gems 🤣🤣🤣

[@benemery1644]

It can be either depending on your outlook. Some people can drink in moderation without it becoming a problem and some can't. I've been drinking for 16 of my 27 years along with experimenting with pretty much everything you can imgine at different points in between and none of it ever has been a problem for me.

[@baseballpimp1910]

This is one of the first Kendrick songs I listened to and to this day it’s my favorite because I relate to it a lot especially when he mentions how people in his family were hard drinkers. Alcoholism runs rampant on both sides of my family and my dad recently recovered from his alcoholism a couple years ago. Him rapping about the different reasons why people start drinking always makes me question why I’ve started drinking. It’s a great song with such a universal appeal to all people. Whether your an African American from Compton like Kendrick or from a white family of rough miners like me everyone turns to this destructive but accepted drug for different reasons and this song brings a lot of awareness to that. And then people act like weed is such a horrible drug even though it’s about the same as alcohol if not better depending on the individual but that’s a whole different discussion.

[@dant.3505]

@@benemery1644 16 out of 27 years. Drinking since 11 is starting pretty young. Don't get me wrong I'm not judging, when we would host drinking and smoking party some of the friends/relatives would be young but never under 16 if I remember correctly. Anyway not really making a point... have fun kiddo!

[@arianapark7153]

This song is refering to his childhood where he grew up with parents drinking. Drinking so much that it could fill a swimming pool.

It's sarcasm. Like, "So, you wanna be popular? You wanna escape? Dive into this pool of alcohol, I'm sure it'll make things 10x better." But really, it doesn't. It's just about peer pressure and voices in your head telling you to drink because it'll make you popular or it'll make you feel better. Or at least that's how I perceive it.

I always thought that the voice in the chorus is drunk himself, and when he's saying 'I wave a few bottles and watch 'em all flock' or 'Pool full of liquor and you dive in it', he's deluded into thinking that drinking will make him successful and popular, when in fact the opposite occurs.

[@commitfelonyfeline]

I'll break it down for people that don't know: "Sit down (drank) Stand up (drank) Pass out (drank) Wake up (drank)" This verse describes alcohol dependency "Graddady had the golden flask" This says about all the alcohol addiction in his family. "Nigga why you baby sittin on 2 or 3 shots, Imma show you how to turn it up a notch You get a swimming pool full of liquor and you dive in it, pool full of liquor and you dive in it" You're becoming alcohol dependent. You see, you're trying to float above the liquid in the pool which in this case is alcohol. "I wave a few bottles and watch em all flock" All the addicts. "I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it" Peer pressure. "Pool full of liquor Imma dive in it" Being peer pressured by others into alco. "Ok now open your mind up an listen to me Kendrick" Peeeeeeer preeeeesure. (This whole verse is about peer pressure.)

The reason Kendrick Lamar is the best rapper right now, and a top 10 of all time (too soon to say that), is his ability to show how drugs and alcohol, fuck with you, and how he grew up in a tough city such as Compton and was able to turn into a role model for so many young kids who are having a hard time in their life and have trouble making decisions, he also condones violence and how it can scar you mentally.

[@shaolinmonkey4096]

Logic is a lot like Kendrick

[@PablohGee]

+Will Courington ikr

[@kylereid4318]

+Will Courington Logic isn't even in the same breath as J.Cole, and Kendrick is stratospheres ahead of J.Cole.

[@Xeleith]

I think you meant condemns violence, not condones.

[@smitherskro]

+Kyle Reid I honestly think you just jump onto the bandwagon of those two rappers, who are honestly a few of my favourites as well. But please man, you are of the opinion that 'they aren't in the same breath', but you're saying it like a proven rap. It wasn't even a question of who is the best, they guy was just saying that Logic went through the same stuff that Kendrick did, growing up into a struggling environment, could've joined gangs like his brothers but ended up a role model to millions. He wasn't referring to quality (even though their flow is very similar imo), he was referring to their experiences. You may say Gattersburg isn't comparable to Compton but if you listen to the 'Growing Pains' trilogy, you can see that he was born into a rough background, into a rougher family, where his own brothers would sell his own dad coke. So stop jumping onto the bandwagon of 'Oh Kendrick and Cole are the greatest', and I partially agree with you that they will carry the rap culture forward for the next few years but Logic will honestly be not far behind. Honestly, stop bitching and just listen to the music, its all good at the end of the day.

[@BenevoIence]

That chorus is so catchy

[@yuzuruuux]

At first glance, this song sounds like a typical rap song about getting wasted. But if you really pay attention you can uncover the meaning behind it.

[@510Hyde]

[@iProBrix]

Juan Carlos Avalos Kendrick talks about how he drinks to solve problems but when he gets wasted he starts to realize the damage drinking causes.

[@510Hyde]

Elaborate.

One of the greatest songs about the struggle of sobriety. Kendrick perfectly personifies liqour here and it’s temptation to lead you to death absolutely amazing lyrics!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@roycastanon5754]

I got high for the first time a couple days ago and when me and my friend were driving to get food he put this song on. I’d listened to it before but it was a completely different experience this time. I don’t think I’ll ever forget that memory, everything was just slowed down and I felt genuine happiness for once.

The whole point of this song is to emphasize how detrimental drinking is to peoples lives and society, its not about glorifying drinking whatsoever.

This song speaks to me. It is about society and all its problems, and a clear escape. Sure alcohol is an escape. Those alcohol anonymous nuts say stop drinking. I say drink more, drink more until society becomes less insane. Because it is clearly insane right now...
