[Verse: Kendrick Lamar]
I can see the darkness in me and it's quite amazing
Life and death is no mystery and I wanna taste it
Step inside of my mind and you'll find curiosity, animosity
High philosophy, hyper prophesied meditation
Reminisce on my wonder years and I wonder here
Sentiments of my words ain't been so sincere
The sentiment of my nerves that I just persevere
The big thought of fallin' off disappeared to my fate
They say that Heaven's real
Analyze my demise, I say I'm super anxious
Recognize I deprive this feeling and then I embrace it
Vandalizing these walls only if they could talk
Conversations won't contemplate to my dark thoughts
Lookin' down on my soul now, tell me I'm in control now
Tell me I can live long and I can live wrong and I can live right
And I can sing song and I can unite the you that I love
You that I like, look at my life and tell me I fight
This that final destination, this that find some information
This that find some inspiration, this that crack, the installation
This that quantum jump and that fist pump and that bomb detonation
Please don't bomb my nation, embalming fluid waiting
I got mind control when I'm here, you gon' hate me when I'm gone
Ain't no blood pumpin' no fear, I got hope inside of my bones
This that life beyond your own life, this ain't physical for mankind
This that out-of-body experience, no coincidence you been died
Bitch, you're dead!

[Break: Thundercat]

[Hook: Kendrick Lamar]
Say you will never ever catch me, no, no, no
Say you will never ever catch me, no, no, no
Say you will never ever catch me, no, no, no
Say you will never ever catch me, no, no, no
Say you will never ever catch me
Say you will never ever catch me
Say you will never ever

Flying Lotus

Steven Ellison (born October 7, 1983), better known by his stage name Flying Lotus, is an experimental multi-genre music producer, electronic musician, DJ and rapper from Los Angeles, California.

Lotus first gained fame in 2006, when he saw an advertisement on Adult Swim asking for song submissions. He had already begun experimenting with beats, so he sent in a few songs under the name “Flying Lotus” — a lucid dreaming inspired moniker. Adult Swim accepted his songs, and soon his instrumentals were being used all over the channel; everything from theme songs to advertisements.

After his sudden rise to fame, Lotus began interning at Stones Throw Records, the label home to rap legend MF DOOM and Lotus’s biggest inspiration, prestigious producer J Dilla. Lotus began living out of the label’s offices and his grandmothers couch, and he started to work on his debut album, 1983.
