[Bridge: Kendrick Lamar]
Two things always been off-limits
I still say, women and children
Today, nobody living with moral compass
Point the fingers around the mirrors
Play this song on the radio
I need everybody on the dance floor tonight
Possibility a language where nobody wins
Possibility the governor employed tonight

[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
Hell calls in the South again
How many laws violated by old men gambling they advantages
Be compelled by John bail looking for worship
Masked world but never dilated for nurture
The ego is alive and ugly
There’s way too many lies to trust me
Off-limits always been women and children
But now they tell me there’s limits on abortion money

[Chorus: ?]
It’s funny how they will convince you you're hurt
Of all the things you haven’t done
Just one more day left in the sun
Without you, I'm not anyone
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
She said “Mama, can I stay in the house and get some sleep?
The pressure that I’m feeling and dealing with runs deep
I’m nervous every time that you fellowship out the week
I hate to watch you fall in a coma after you drink
I know you tell me I got to stay in a child’s place
But if you still a child, we running the same race
I tried to save face and disregard the scars that’s wrapping around my waist
Living my truth is hard
Especially when I can’t be honest when I’m around you
Your new boyfriend got a secret and need some counsel
The days you go to work on the weekend, he crack the door
Then he sneak in the back, doin’ some things never allowed to
Why don’t you believe me, I got battle wounds to show you?
Why don’t you believe me, I got more life to go through?
I know that it’s easy for you to lay up with a man
Protecting your daughter never necessary by chance
I guess it’s my fault for choosing you as my mother
A soul reconnected, we prolly made for each other
I know you wish that I'd keep my feelings inside my room
But sometimes I wish that I never made it out of your womb
Oxy”

[Pre-Chorus: ?]
Can’t fall asleep
Without you rocking me to sleep
Without you
[Chorus: ?]
It’s funny how they will convince you you're hurt
Of all the things you haven’t done
Just one more day left in the sun
Without you, I’m not anyone

[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
When I become a mother, I wanna be healthy
I wanna be educated so life don’t fail me
I wanna give my child infinite opportunities, wisdom and security
Vision and freedom believing in purity
I want my baby have a joyous one
To see optimism whenever paranoia come
To know my intentions was to make sure my seed flourish
Loving them unconditionally as the most assertive
I wanna be a healthy mother like Clair Huxtable, Florida Evans before my fate is indebted
I wanna be a mother passing on good karma with no emotional luggage to intercept and inherit
I want my child to have a chance at life, to celebrate
To live out the box, advance in life and regulate
But if I can spare your life, I would, ‘cause nothing out here is good
If this man is making you out of rape, understood?

[Bridge: Kendrick Lamar]
Two things always been off-limits
I still say, women and children
Today, nobody living with moral compass
Point the fingers around the mirrors
Play this song on the radio
I need everybody on the dance floor tonight
Possibility a language where nobody wins
Possibility the governor employed tonight
[Verse 4: Kendrick Lamar]
I gave you every reason to make it even and lift your hands
I gave you life, I gave you a voice, I gave you land
I gave you rights, I gave you a choice, I gave you plans
I gave you principles, I gave you guidelines commendable for prospering
I can see you living life in a trance
Apocalypse only happen if you never transcend
I gave you love, you turned it to hate
I gave you bread, you turned it to cake
I gave you sex, you made it to rape
Gave you vision, but you covered your eyes multiple times
Gave you truth, but you made it revised, covered with lies
Look at you confused and barely abusing ego
Feds using the people around you for ground zero
Even compromised myself, gave you free will
Hoping you’ll make decision for self, knowing how I feel
Judge as the last one
Abortion or no abortion
We all aborted the moment we aborted compassion
