If you listen to some of the words, it’s real intricate, but it makes sense. That’s really one big subliminal at everybody getting mixed in a situation where everyone wants to have creative control.
Kendrick explained this song in an interview with Complex saying:
He also discusses his career so far and how it has changed his life, for better or worse. It is told from the perspective of present-day Kendrick Lamar, who isn’t happy with the state of rap music, and strives to be different by maintaining his vision. The content of this song doesn’t advance the narrative of the album. I'm tryna keep it alive and not compromise the feelin' we love You're tryna keep it deprived and only co-sign what radio does And I'm lookin' right past ya, we live in a world, we live in a world On two different axles, you live in a world, you livin' behind The mirror, I know what you're scared of, the feeling of feeling emotions inferior This shit is vital, I know you had to, this shit is vital, I know you had to Die in a pitiful vain, tell me a watch and a chain is way more believable Give me a feasible gain, rather a seasonal name, I'll let the people know This is somethin' you can blame on yourselves, you can remain stuck in a box I'ma breakout and then hide every lock, I'ma breakout and then hide every lock I can feel the changes, I can feel the new people round me Just wanna be famous, you can see that my city found me Then put me on stages, to me, that's amazin' To you, that's a quick check, with all disrespect, let me say this I am a sinner Who's prob'ly gonna sin again Lord, forgive me, Lord, forgive me Things I don't understand Sometimes I need to be alone Bitch, don't kill my vibe, bitch, don't kill my vibe I can feel your energy from two planets away, I got My drink, I got my music, I would share it, but today I'm yellin' Bitch, don't kill my vibe, bitch, don't kill my vibe Bitch, don't kill my vibe, bitch, don't kill my vibe
Look inside of my soul and you can find gold and maybe get rich Look inside of your soul and you can find out it never exist I can feel the changes, I can feel a new life, I always Knew life can be dangerous, I can say that I like a challenge And you tell me it's painless, you don't know what pain is How can I paint this picture when the color blind is hangin' witcha? Fell on my face and awoke with a scar, another mistake livin' deep in my heart Wear it on top of my sleeve in a flick, I can admit that it did look like yours Why you resent every makin' of his? Tell me your purpose is petty again But even a small lighter can burn a bridge, even a small lighter can burn a bridge I can feel the changes, I can feel the new people round me Just wanna be famous, you can see that my city found me Then put me on stages, to me, that's amazin' To you, that's a quick check, with all disrespect, let me say this I am a sinner Who's prob'ly gonna sin again Lord, forgive me, Lord, forgive me Things I don't understand Sometimes I need to be alone Bitch, don't kill my vibe, bitch, don't kill my vibe I can feel your energy from two planets away, I got My drink, I got my music, I would share it, but today I'm yellin' Bitch, don't kill my vibe, bitch, don't kill my vibe Bitch, don't kill my vibe, bitch, don't kill my vibe
