The fifth track, “Hey Now,” brings a playful and experimental vibe to the album. Kendrick showcases his versatility, weaving clever wordplay and a catchy hook over a vibrant, funk-infused beat.
Despite its light-hearted tone, the track subtly explores themes of self-expression and individuality, making it a refreshing addition to GNX.
hey now Kendrick Lamar Lyrics
Damn, baby
I like it
Damn
Hmm
Hey now, say now, I’m all about my Yen
Big face booty, get my peace from within
Send the [?] to all my dirties in the pen
Let the honorary walk for the win, for the win
You crash out, then you better break the backboard
I got friends, hopin’ that they make the tabloids
You know the last one figured he was Magneto
You play God, you gon’ get what you ask for
We got the same twenty-four, what you mad for?
I put a square on his back like I’m Jack Dorsey
It’s high beams if I make a public appearance
Go back to hidin’ ’cause I’m not too friendly with niggas
One one thousand, two one thousand, four
The Black know I just strangled me a goat
I walked in with a therapeutic flow
Put a few hundred up, let ’em go, let ’em go
Hey now, say now
Hey now, say now
Hey now, say now
Hmm, hey now, say now
Hey now, say now, I’m all about my Yen
Big face booty, get my peace from within
Send the [?] to all my dirties in the pen
Let the honorary walk for the win, for the win
Hey now, say now
Hey now, say now
Hey now, say now
Hey now, say now
Hey now, say now, I done slid on they backstreet
Heavy on the Parmesan, every day tax season
What the fuck you wearin’? Bro, it’s tacky
Niggas layin’ on they death bed tryna match me
Oh my God, I’m ’bout to do the foo
They be screamin’ out P, but they resume is boof
Switch both lanes, the engine sound like the zoo
Need a fee just to breathe, bitch, I can’t talk to you
It’s the Ben Frank murderer
Mister, I ain’t heard of ya
Golf streams, back to back, flyin’ through the turbulence
Who receive free lunch? Hmm, Kraft Services
Throw your ass out this rental if I smell nervousness
Hey now, say now, let me pop my shit
Water down my wrist, I’m around my bitch
It’s a green light, don’t get out of bounds, I’ma blitz
It’s a bird, it’s a plane, no, it’s all blue strips
Nigga, what?
Hey now, say now
Hey now, say now
Hey now, say now
Hmm, hey now, say now
I’m way too important
I’m way too important
I’m way too important to ever let you slide on me again
Startin’ to see spaceships on roads, cryin’
I seen the aliens hold hands
