I know nobody gonna read this but the first time I heard this song was back in 2012 , when I actually told a friend I was depressed and I hated myself… he send me this song … it’s 10 years now .. and my life starting to get better … but throughout the 10 years this song have ALWAYS! Made me cry , made me stronger , made me believe in myself! This song is really a master piece to me… I always cry to this song ❤️

Was addicted to heroin for 7yrs, in an out of homelessness and all types of other craziness, I listened to this song atleast a million times during that time, jus wondering why god kept me alive, here I am now 5yrs clean, well, struggling again recently not as bad as before but I know how bad it can get so I need to get my shit together. Love you Kendrick. And love you BJ the Chicago Kid, and the singing /rap at the end of this song you do, amazing. 🎶

Kendrick really does open your eyes. He helps me appreciate life, makes me realize what this world really about..... And this is his early work. Simply amazing

[@PrinceJayReal]

+Sabrina Benavidez The fact that this is early work is what really impresses me. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed Section.80 for example, one of his earlier projects, but he gets so much better with every project from a musical, political, philosophical, social, and personal perspective. After Good Kid Maad City I felt like such a project would be un-toppable for him but he blew my mind with To Pimp A Butterfly and actually surpassed it. I feel the same way in regards to his next project, he certainly can't get any better than he already is, right? Well, all I know that I'll never bet against the kid again. Kendrick Lamar is a special human being and we're fortunate to be alive in this time period to experience his music, character, etc.

[@saben47]

***** yes exactly... Couldn't have said it better myself. I feel so fortunate to be in tune with his music and watch him grow as an artist... He stands for so much and the kids can really learn a lot from him. He gives hope in a world so cruel.

[@kazoh0lic]

+King Jay This isn't his early work. His early stuff is "Skateboard nigga". He switched up his style because no one believed him as a gangsta.

[@undercoverwookiee6686]

I'm not from the hood. I wasn't raised in poverty. I'm a nerdy white boy from Arkansas. But this song makes me feel real. This is THE realest song I have EVER heard in my entire life, and it is truly a work of art. They should have played this shit on the radio, but all people want to hear is feel-good party music. This is real life for many people all over the world. This song paints a vivid picture that couldn't be done by anyone other than Kendrick and BJ.

[@Wave02Z]

Kendrick's verses make me think of King David in the bible..especially after he gets confronted about his adultery (and associated murder, sabotage etc..) David write Psalm 51 basically pouring his heart out and singing of the mercy and grace God has shown him. Despite his savage ways God says he is a man "after his own heart." Considered a talented poet and musician, his Psalms live on today.

[@AA-iv2mx]

Love this god bless, family 💓🙏🏽✝️

[@Pauseeee]

Poetic

[@michaelmidax8108]

You know what, beloved brother? You're right. This song does resemble the pain & confession that King David rendered unto Yehwah after he & Bathsheba lost their child, bcz of his greed & coveting Uriah's wife so much that he constructed a plan to have Uriah killed so he could have Bathsheba. He manipulated Uriah. Sending him to fight in his army. Bcz knew Uriah loved & adored him, respected & was devoted to him, & would stop at nothing to serve & please him. He had no knowledge of how to fight in battle, let alone a war. Resulting in him being slain in battle. That scripture has always been one of my favorite in Yehwah's holy text. Partially bcz David accepted his wrong doings, greed, & coveting, his selfishness, his deceit, him betraying & exploiting the love Uriah had for him. & he boldly sought out/ came to bow at the feet of Yehwah & confess, which is the way apologies should be done. But also I love that scripture bcz when he was down & out, depressed at hurt, but he went into a room in privacy & told himself, "Soul, why art thou disquieted in me? HOPE THOU IN GOD!". & I've had to do that many, many times. 8 yrs ago I was 19 & had been in the streets since my first child was born 6 yrs prior, when I was 13, trying to make fast money to be able to provide for my family as the only man in both, my blood family & my son's mother's family. Eventually the streets ceased being just my source of my income & it became my addiction. Scaring ppl w/ my ruthless & careless deeds & actions. My older brothers were more laxed & relaxed but they were in the streets as well. One day the 8 of us went out to go hoop, & while we were getting something to eat at Pizza Hut before doing so. & while I was in the restroom Yehwah spoke to me. He told me to go home after eating & let my brothers know that he said the same for them as well. Which shocked me & made me angry as well. I have a blood condition that causes excruciating pain from out of nowhere, & for days & days at a time. & when I'd pray I never heard him reply & speak back to me. & now (that day) I'm not in pain, I'm going to have a good time with my brothers, & you're first speaking to me is to tell me to go out & enjoy my day with my brothers & I'm not in pain, but you wouldn't speak to me when I'm in the hospital & in agony when I need you?!?! I cursed Yehwah & told him no. Less that an hour we had eaten, got to the park, & had just started hooping. Not knowing Yehwah told me what he did bcz someone we knew had betrayed us & let individuals we were in beef with know where we'd be going. & those individuals pulled in two cars; I'll never forget it. An orange Crown Vic & a tan Toyota. They got hopped & started shooting. They hit all of us & dipped in the span of about a minute, then they dipped. I saw 3 of my brothers die on that basketball court before losing consciousness. 5 of us were in the hospital. 3 of us in ICU in comas, I was one of them. My two other brothers died in their comas. One, the next day after the ambush, & the other died in his coma the day before I woke up. I was devastated, heart obliterated, soul crushed. My brothers were more level headed & moved in a mature manner. & here I am, the reckless lil brother but alive. While my more mature brothers were dead; in a large part due to my recklessness & in any even larger part due to me disobeying Yehwah's warning. I can't even begin to give an estimate of how many times I've listened to this song & just weeped & sobbed begging Yehwah to forgive me, & telling my deceased brothers how sorry I am. I didn't/ couldn't understand why Yehwah kept blessing me. Yehwah is great & merciful, more than what deserve.

Kendrick is very clever with his wordplay , I like how he in the beginning he says "and I don't know why he keep blessing me" and as the song progresses he says "now I know why he keep blessing me" , the answer to that is , so he can live on , share his story , and bless us with great music , like this song .

[@TheSilenceIsBroken1]

[@LB0697]

A repentant wayward young black mans anthem in this land of the greed and the home of the slaves. Song makes me think put God first and it's all gonna work out, highs and lows, light or dark. This life is a test where the next page is never promised and even when we think we are too far gone with no light of hope in sight, the warm hand of Our Father pulls us back from the depths in which we could not even properly perceive ourselves; and where dreariness and desolation lurked he places strength to stand in time's of weakness and a love so powerful death itself has no choice but to fall in its presence. This song is so beautiful man. Yah bless these artist and all those who resonate with this message..and even if you didn't like it Yah bless you, in the sacred name of Yahusha Ha Mashiach.

+NeLeso Francis Joey made a reference to this song in "Like me"!

[@DrinkmoWater.]

Damn y'all got good taste in music .. he did make a references around 2:35 of that track

[@nerrawollitsac4441]

I put this on repeat when i feel like i dont know why im crying or why am i still here on earth. But the "so i can bless you" part is true cause my happiness dont mean nothing but me helping others so i can see them happy. Thats why i listen to this song to remind me that im alive cause im blessed 🙌

[@MintyTF]

always amazes me just how much emotion you can put in one track.

[@luigi9659]

I thought this was a new song but the second i heard that piano......... damn.....some songs you just never forget

[@Inspirmentalist]

this song turned me onto BJ the chicago kid, the first time i really heard him was on the GTA V soundtrack.

[@childnoirr]

[@TheAndreCato]

***** No matter how you feel about the genre the writing is poignant.

[@spaminacan5232]

Anyone who disliked this video are complete ignoramuses for swatting the fact that Kendrick raps about real shit. Not this fake bullshit that Yo Gotti and Shmuurda (Or however the fuck you spell that shit) put out.

[@yosiahw4305]

I couldn't appreciate this song when I was younger, but now I'm speechless and it's absurd.

[@landonrussell3814]

Whyd they take this off Spotify 😢

[@AzariasRoss]

Cuz it’s run by the Devil

[@nancyiniguez3615]

Wow I can’t believe I’m just hearing this song...amazing.

[@VaNDaL253]

The realist song I ever heard in my 27 years

[@mikerodriguez8785]

Summer night in Chicago and nothing better than a beer and listening to K.dot and bj the Chicago kid

[@DJGODMODE]

Mike Rodriguez yes I agree! I would cruise down lake shore drive late at night and play this song

[@addir9502]

GET THE MESSAGE OF THE SONG PEOPLE! Count your blessings and use what you have to bless others.

[@kevinadjei]

I don't know why the Lord keeps blessing me, but I pray he keeps blessing me

[@SenseiWolfe]

kendrick is a true poet and knows how to make those who aren't from the Hood, understand the hood

[@MrKB209]

I just got put on. I'm a instant fan. Love good music.

[@watzdadeal]

This one has a certain something that will likely make it strong for years to come.

[@Mardigraz718]

This gave me chills! This is the type of joints that classic albums are made of!

[@deemaclin9116]

This brought tears to my eyes. I guess that's the after effect of listening and enjoying a great song like this.

[@Jack-bx6go]

Confession then calling upon him and feels like a thanksgiving, ladies and gentleman this is a prayer, a psalm of the 21st Century

[@jessypooh24]

This....song....is...really.....deep. I wanna cry now. More appreciative of God's mercy
