[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]

[Intro: Bēkon]
Love's gonna get you killed
But pride’s gonna be the death of you and you and me
And you and you and you and me
And you and you and you and me
And you and you and you and me and—

[Chorus: Steve Lacy & Kendrick Lamar]
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
In another life, I surely was there
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
I care, I care
Hell-raising, wheel-chasing, new worldly possessions
Flesh-making, spirit-breaking, which one would you lessen?
The better part, the human heart, you love ’em or dissect 'em
Happiness or flashiness? How do you serve the question?
See, in a perfect world, I would be perfect, world
I don't trust people enough beyond they surface, world
I don't love people enough to put my faith in man
I put my faith in these lyrics, hoping I make a band
I understand I ain't perfect, I probably won't come around
This time I might put you down
Last time I ain't give a fuck, I still feel the same now
My feelings might go numb, you're dealing with cold thumb
I’m willing to give up a leg and arm to show empathy from
Pity parties and functions of you and yours
A perfect world, you probably live another 24
I can’t fake humble just 'cause your ass is insecure
I can’t fake humble just 'cause your ass is insecure

[Chorus: Steve Lacy & Kendrick Lamar]
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
In another life, I surely was there
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
I care, I care

[Post-Chorus: Kendrick Lamar & Anna Wise]
Maybe I wasn’t there (We saw you first)
Maybe I wasn't there (I saw you first)
Maybe I wasn't there (I saw you first)
Maybe I wasn't there

[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
Now, in a perfect world, I probably won't be insensitive
Cold as December but never remember what winter did
I wouldn't blame you for mistakes I made or the bed I laid
kendrick lamar pride lyrics, pride lyrics,
pride kendrick lamar, pride kendrick lamar,
pride lyrics, love’s gonna get you killed,
pride tiktok,
love’s gonna killed you tiktok
Seems like I point the finger just to make a point nowadays
Smiles and cold stares, the temperature goes there
Indigenous disposition, feel like we belong here
I know the walls, they can listen, I wish they could talk back
The hurt becomes repetition, the love almost lost that
Sick venom in men and women overcome with pride
A perfect world is never perfect, only filled with lies
Promises are broken and more resentment come alive
Race barriers make inferior of you and I
See, in a perfect world, I'll choose faith over riches
I'll choose work over bitches, I'll make schools out of prison
I'll take all the religions and put 'em all in one service
Just to tell 'em we ain't shit, but He's been perfect, world

[Chorus: Steve Lacy & Kendrick Lamar]
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
In another life, I surely was there
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
I care, I care

[Post-Chorus: Kendrick Lamar & Anna Wise]
Maybe I wasn't there (We saw you first)
Maybe I wasn't there (I saw you first)
Maybe I wasn't there (I saw you first)
Maybe I wasn't there

Most slept on song of the whole album. Kendrick's message in these lyrics is really something else..

[TaeTae_]

My older cousin got caught up n the wrong crowd, he was a sweet guy jus trynna survive in this world. His pride wouldnt let him admit the truth, he kept pushing and pushing until he just couldn’t anymore. he committed at just 19 years old when I was in middle school 🕊️

[NoneToYou]

[Osamathegamer]

When he says "maybe I wasn't there" he means maybe in a perfect world he wouldn't

[drarterspaces]

This man is a throwback of the 90s even outdoing the needs to be kept in the museum

[sebastian.p]

To describe this as a masterpiece would be an understatement

[destroyer]

I feel uneasy hearing this, but it gives me a weird sense of comfort? These lyrics hit too hard, and the vibe of the song and kendrick changing tones make me feel uneasy. Especially when he says "Me, I wasnt taught to share, but care" the extension of "Me" is just too strong

[toppingtoaster]

a perfect world is never perfect only filled with lies hit hard

[sathishchinthana]
