[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
Sits on a studio couch, [?] what the fuck am I thinking about?
Thinking bout living without
Past, present [?] Dr. Dre [?]
I tripped off 600 seconds
10 minutes exact
[?] explore, [?] George
[?] what I'm curious for
Like what if Pac never [?] [?] to get them shots through the door?
They say Suge did it, but he was in imerginsy clinic
[?] get someone else killed
But in the process get [?] don't make sence
It's like the [?] code, tryna solve the crime of these rap souls
What if Big never did it big?
Never went to LA, [?]
Would've made my flow more [?]
[?] was fucking with Hov
[?] if it wasn't personal, if Jay wasn't intemet
Probably be less people listening
Thinking it's a poblisity stunt, what if he partnered with Jay? Still didn't pull over
[?]
Nothing different, quite similar
[?] my copasity, thinking about Martin Luther on the balkany
What if the shooter [?] What if Malcolm on his side?
Kill 2 birds with 1 stone, both would've died
Now let's rewind
[Chorus ?]
[?]
[?]
Imagine
[?]
[?]
Can you imagine?
[?] in the sky
Can you imagine?
[Verse 2: Jay Rock]
Imagine if Tooky was a Blood?
No disrespect, there'd b more Bloods than Crips [?]
Dominating the population of LA
Orange County, the vally [?]
Imagine if we didn't really start this gangsta shit
Y'all wouldn't have nothing to spit
No drive byes, no flags hanging out pockets
[?] just rapping like Crush Crew
[?] perseption walking [?]
[?] be alive
Or would he have been lost his life to the streets?
Not to mention, no cars in that driveway
What if Freeway Rick never was a kingpin?
On this LA strip with these rap niggas [?]
What if rap niggas never had rap?
[?]
[?] ass backwards
Now these rappers getting caught with the cocaine, to smoke, not to slang
Imagine that, people not knowing that these rap niggas is insane
Just think about it
[Chorus ?]
[?]
[?]
Imagine
[?]
[?]
Can you imagine?
[?] in the sky
Can you imagine?
[Verse 3: Punch]
Imagine life without death
Would you even feel alive?
[?] what if they never died?
Imagine seeing your mom cry tears of happiness
Knowing her son safe and she ain't lose him to this maddness
A street living with a crack epodemic
Never reached the projects, they destroyed our buildings
Turned most of us to killers, inesent victoms
Imagine if [?] didn't effect our systom
They say drug money funded labels today
What about the drug money that's funding the CIA?
Imagine if they would try to fix these streets
Would they start in the hood? Or executive sweets?
Where the real criminals meet, and principle beef
[?] you could possibly live without heat
Imagine if Al Gore had won that election
The twin tower buildings still standing [?]
Imagine [?] without wittness protection
Would it be this many cowards on the stand telling?
I don't know, I'm just speaking my mind
Lost in my own soul, let's press rewind
