Pour up (drank), headshot (drank)

Sit down (drank), stand up (drank)

Pass out (drank), wake up (drank)

Faded (drank), faded (drank)

Now I done grew up 'round some people livin' their life in bottles

Granddaddy had the golden flask, backstroke every day in Chicago

Some people like the way it feel, some people wanna kill their sorrows

Some people wanna fit in with the popular, that was my problem

I was in the dark room, loud tunes, lookin' to make a vow soon

That I'ma get fucked up, fillin' up my cup, I see the crowd mood

Changin' by the minute and the record on repeat

Took a sip, then another sip, then somebody said to me

Nigga, why you babysittin' only two or three shots?

I'ma show you how to turn it up a notch

First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

I wave a few bottles, then I watch 'em all flock

All the girls wanna play Baywatch

I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it

Po-pool full of liquor, I'ma dive in it

Pour up (drank), headshot (drank)

Sit down (drank), stand up (drank)

Pass out (drank), wake up (drank)

Faded (drank), faded (drank)

Okay, now open your mind up and listen me, Kendrick

I'm your conscience, if you do not hear me then you will be history, Kendrick

I know that you're nauseous right now and I'm hopin' to lead you to victory, Kendrick

If I take another one down, I'ma drown in some poison, abusin' my limit

I think that I'm feelin' the vibe, I see the love in her eyes

I see the feelin', the freedom is granted as soon as the damage of vodka arrive

This how you capitalize, this is parental advice

And apparently, I'm over-influenced by what you are doin'

I thought I was doin' the most 'til someone said to me

Nigga, why you babysittin' only two or three shots?

I'ma show you how to turn it up a notch

First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

I wave a few bottles, then I watch 'em all flock

All the girls wanna play Baywatch

I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it

Po-pool full of liquor, I'ma dive in it

Pour up (drank), headshot (drank)

Sit down (drank), stand up (drank)

Pass out (drank), wake up (drank)

Faded (drank), faded (drank)

I ride, you ride, bang

One chopper, 100 shots, bang

Hop out, do you bang?

Two chopper, 200 shots, bang

I ride, you ride, bang

One chopper, 100 shots, bang

Hop out, do you bang?

Two chopper, 200 shots, bang

Nigga, why you babysittin' only two or three shots?

I'ma show you how to turn it up a notch

First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it

I wave a few bottles, then I watch 'em all flock

All the girls wanna play Baywatch

I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it

Po-pool full of liquor, I'ma dive in it

Pour up (drank), headshot (drank)

Sit down (drank), stand up (drank)

Pass out (drank), wake up (drank)

Faded (drank), faded (drank)
