Dr. Dre
My Name Is
[Intro: Dr. Dre]
Yo, man I don't think they heard you, why don't you tell them what your name is?

[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
I said my name is Kendrick, Lamar
N***a my name is Kendrick, Lamar
I said my name is Kendrick, Lamar
I said my name is Kendrick, Lamar

[Verse 1]
I can tell you what it is
I can tell you what it isn't
No more K. Dot
My mother had named me Kendrick
Fuck a stage name
That's the name that I was given
The only thing that I can identify with in this business
I'm just a good kid from Compton that wanna rap
Weighing my options pick up a bible or strap
I never killed a man
Never sold any crack
All I ever did was try to keep my city on the map
But this monkey on my back
Y'all don't want me to win
I'm tryna find some dreams you want me to follow trends
So just to get a dollar will I sell my soul?
I look the devil in the eye and tell him, "Hell no"
They say anything worth having is worth the wait
Well I want the world, tell me how long that takes
There's no time like now
I could cut my patience short
Or give 'em some more gowns, I don't even want the crown
I just want a peace of mind and n***a when I get it
You won't get a piece of mine
Won't you mind your own business?
A rich n***a buy anything you sell him
A broke n***a believe anything that you tell him
Well I'm a broke n***a but I still wouldn't listen to you
Even if your hand was on a Bible quote n***a
My new saying saying is 0-10, why lie?
And if you ain't trying to win, then why try?
Now you can low-ball or give me high five
This is I n***a, look into my eye
N***a I am
[Chorus]
Kendrick, Lamar
N***a my name is Kendrick, Lamar
I said my name is Kendrick, Lamar
I changed the name 'cause I was tired of being like y'all
Now finally I'm ready to tell the world who I are
