“GNX” by Kendrick Lamar
2026-08-08

На 1 февруари 2026 г. американският hip-hop музикант KENDRICK LAMAR получи пет отличия
„Grammy“, четири от които за работата си върху проекта “GNX”. Това е неговият шести студиен
албум и така продължаваме да представяме музиката на по-младата част от нашите слушатели,
някои от които го определят като „поета на нашето съвремие“.
KENDRICK LAMAR е сред най-ярките имена в съвременната hip-hop музика, той е известен и като
успешен продуцент и предприемач, и още нещо – популярен е със силната си социална
ангажираност. KENDRICK безспорно е най-известният hip-hop изпълнител на своето поколение,
един от онези редки музиканти, които са постигнали творчески и търговски успех, като са
спечелили уважението и подкрепата на онези, които са ги вдъхновявали.
Неговите шест студийни албума са белязани с 90 основни награди, сред които 27 отличия
„Grammy“, две Primetime Emmy, една Brit, и дори една Pulitzer Prize for Music, за несравнимата им
комбинация от изобретателна игра на думи и завладяващи концептуални истории, със изследване
на високомерието, расовата сегрегация, полицейското насилие и мястото на чернокожите жени в
съвременната американска действителност. За това допринася сътрудничеството му с такива имена
като Dr. Dre, SZA, Taylor Swift, MC Eiht, Sounwave и Jay Rock.
Албумът „GNX“ е фокусиран върху културната гордост на Западното крайбрежие в САЩ и възхода
на местните музиканти. Заглавието идва от модела GNX (Grand National Experimental) на
автомобила Buick Regal (1987), известен с това, че превъзхожда класическите суперколи от своята
епоха като символизира сурова мощност, висок статус и скорост. KENDRICK LAMAR e израснал в
Лос Анжелис, в квартала Compton, родното място на hip-hop и gangsta rap, с музиката на
пионерите от N.W.A Dr. Dre, Ice Cube и Eazy-E. Затова с ярост изобличава фалшивия образ на хора,
които твърдят, че носят културата на Лос Анджелис или се преструват, че представят града без
никакво покритие. Същевременно KENDRICK изразява дълбока си преданост към корените си
като човек и музикант, чието начало е белязано от появата през 1987 г. на N.W.A. Други теми са
личностното израстване и това да остане верен на моралния си кодекс въпреки търговския натиск.
В музикален план откриваме влиянието на традиционния gangsta funk сред hip-hop теченията на
Западното крайбрежие, смесено с разновидности на уличната култура в Лос Анджелис и
регионални стилистични похвати. За участие са привлечени редица популярни имена като SZA,
DODY6, LEFTY GUNPLAY, WALLIE THE SENSEI, SIETE7X, RODDY RICCH, AZCHIKE, HITTA
J3, YOUNGTHREAT И PEYSOH.
Албумът „GNX“ е петият номер едно албум на LAMAR в класацията за албуми Billboard 200 в
САЩ и оглавява класациите в Канада, Холандия, Швеция, Австралия, Дания и Великобритания.
Отделно синглите „SQUABBLE UP“ и „LUTHER“ заемат първо място в Billboard Hot 100.
Този именно албум ще чуем в предаването “Картини от една изложба®

” на програма “Хоризонт” в

събота, 8 август, след новините от 22.00 ч.

 

В предаването на 8 август 2026 г.: Kendrick Lamar и албумът „GNX“

LYRICS:
wacced out murals
[Intro: Deyra Barrera]
Siento aquí tu presencia
La noche de anoche
Y nos ponemos a llorar
[Verse 1]
Yesterday somebody whacked out my mural
That energy'll make you niggas move to Europe
But it's regular for me, yeah, that's for sure
The love and hate is definite without a cure
All this talk is bitch-made, that's on my Lord
I'll kill 'em all before I let 'em kill my joy
I done been through it all, what you endure?
It used to be fuck that nigga, but now it's plural
Fuck everybody, that's on my body
My blick first, then God got me
I watch 'em pandеr with them back-handed compliments
Put thеy head on a Cuban link as a monument
I paid homage and I always mind my business
I made the—
I never lost who I am for a rap image
It's motivation if you wonder how I did it
[Chorus]
Yeah, nigga, go and up your rank
Know you a god even when they say you ain't
Yeah, nigga, keep your feelings out the way
Never let no one put smut up on your name
Yeah, nigga, keep your head down and work like I do
But understand everybody ain't gon' like you
Yeah, nigga, if they say it's love, you've been lied to
A couple rules of engagements, I'ma guide you
[Post-Chorus: Deyra Barrera]
Que reflejan tu mirada
La noche, tú y yo
[Verse 2]
Ridin' in my GNX with Anita Baker in the tape deck, it's gon' be a sweet love
Fuck apologies, I wanna see y'all geeked up

Don't acknowledge me, then maybe we can say it's fair
Take it to the internet and I'ma take it there
Miss my uncle Lil' Mane, he said that he would kill me if I didn't make it
Now I'm possessed by a spirit and they can't take it
Used to bump Tha Carter III, I held my Rollie chain proud
Irony, I think my hard work let Lil Wayne down
Whatever, though, call me crazy, everybody questionable
Turn me to an eskimo, I drew the line and decimals
Snoop posted "Taylor Made," I prayed it was the edibles
I couldn't believe it, it was only right for me to let it go
Won the Super Bowl and Nas the only one congratulate me
All these niggas agitated, I'm just glad they showin' they faces
Quite frankly, plenty artists, but they outdated
Old-ass flows, tryna convince me that you they favorite
This is not for lyricists, I swear it's not the sentiments
Fuck a double entendre, I want y'all to feel this shit
Old soul, bitch, I probably built them pyramids
Ducking strays when I rap battled in the Nickersons
Where you from? Not where I'm from, we all indigenous
Against all odds, I squabbled up for them dividends
Against all odds, I showed up as a gentleman
I done lost plenty friends, sixteen to be specific
Put that on my kids' children, we gon' see the future first
They like, "Dot big trippin'," I just want what I deserve
What bridge they done burnt? All of them, it's over with
I'm doin' what COVID did, they'll never get over it

[Chorus]
Yeah, nigga, go and up your rank
Know you a god even when they say you ain't
Yeah, nigga, keep your feelings out the way
Never let no one put smut up on your name
Yeah, nigga, keep your head down and work like I do
But understand everybody ain't gon' like you
Yeah, nigga, if they say it's love, you've been lied to
A couple rules of engagements, here to guide you
[Verse 3]
Niggas from my city couldn't entertain old boy
Promisin' bank transactions and even bitcoin
I'll never peace it up, that shit don't sit well with me
Before I take a truce, I'll take 'em to Hell with me
If that money got in the hands of a crash dummy
Could jeopardize my family and burden the ones who love me
Niggas mad 'cause I decided not to pretend
Y'all stay politically correct, I'ma do what I did
Ain't no sympathy here, this shit's hilarious
It's a lot of opinions, but no power to carry it
2025, they still movin' on some scary shit

Tell 'em quit they job and pay the real niggas they severance
Don't insult my intelligence, I'm not just for the television
Teleport to Bullis Road and dig up all my relatives
Okay, nigga, let's settle it, these niggas been fake loyal
Since y'all pandering to choose a side, let me do it for you
Okay, fuck your hip-hop, I watched the party just die
Niggas cackling about— while all of y'all is on trial
Niggas thought that I was antisocial when I stayed inside of my house
You better off to have one woman, everything tricky right now
You niggas live in denial
Ayy, fuck anybody empathetic to the other side, I vow
A bitch nigga love bitch niggas, they exist with 'em in style
Exterminate 'em right now
Make Katt Williams and them proud, the truth 'bout to get loud
No juice inside of my cup, I sober up and knock 'em all off
Don't let no white comedian talk about no Black woman, that's law
I know propaganda work for them, and fuck whoever that's close to them
The niggas that coon, the niggas that bein' groomed, slide on both of them
You ever ate Cap'n Crunch and proceeded to pour water in it?
Pulled over by the law, you ridin' dirty, so you can't argue with 'em?
Then make it to be a star, bare your soul and put your heart up in it?
Well, I did
Whacked the murals out, but it ain't no legends if my legend ends

squabble up
[Intro: Kendrick Lamar]
God knows
I am reincarnated
I was stargazin'
Life goes on, I need all my babies (Gyah, gyah)
[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar & Debbie Deb]
Woke up lookin' for the broccoli
High-key, keep a horn on me, that Kamasi
IP, ownership, the blueprint is by me
Mr. Get Off, I get off and mop feet
When I hear music, it makes me dance
You got the music, now is your chance
A yee nigga couldn't try me in the tri-state
Buddy pass, bet I get him splashed 'til he hydrated
Bounce out, know he spook town, eyes dilated
I got the money and the power both gyratin'
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
I feel good, get the fuck out my face
Look good, but shе don't got no taste
I walk in, walked out with the safе
Mando, let me know what the play

[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
What the fuck?
I got hits, I got bucks, I got new paper cuts
I got friends, I got foes, but they all sitting ducks
Hit his turf and get crackin', double back like a deluxe
Fifty deep, but it ain't deep enough
Fuck a plea, there he go, beat him up
Fallin' from a money tree and it grow throughout the months
Spit a loogie at the camera, speed off, yeah, it's us
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
I feel good, get the fuck out my face
Look good, but she don't got no taste
I walk in, walked out with the safe
Mando, let me know what the play
[Post-Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
Squabble up, squabble up
Squabble up, squabble up
Squabble up (Mm, mm), squabble up (Mm, mm)
Squabble up (Mm, mm), squabble up
[Bridge: Kendrick Lamar]
Hol' up (Hol' up)
Where you from? (Where you from?)
Bye, bitch (Bye, bitch)
I'm finna go dumb (Finna go dumb)
Sideways (Sideways)
Bunk skunk (Bunk skunk)
Fever (Fever)
I'm on one (I'm on one)
[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
Thunk, thunk, thunk, thunk, thunk, baby rockin' it
Quid pro quo, what you want? 'Cause I'm watchin' it
Work on the floor, let me know if you clockin' it
Brodie won't go, but I know that he poppin' it
It was wolf tickets on sale 'til I silenced it
Pipe down, young, these some whole other politics
Bitch with him and some bitch in him, that's a lot of bitch
Don't hit him, he got kids with him, my apologies
Ghetto child, it was Blacky Milds with the Smirnoff
Yeehaw, we outside, whoadie 'bout to kill him off
Blaps on blaps, it's a fact, this a brick of raw
Tell me why the fuck you niggas rap if it's fictional?
Tell me why the fuck you niggas fed if you criminal?
"Ayy, Dot, can I get a drop?" I'm like, "Nigga, nah"
Ace boon coon from the Westside to Senegal
It's a full moon, let the wolves out, I been a dog (Ah)

[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
I feel good, get the fuck out my face
Look good, but she don't got no taste
I walk in, walked out with the safe
Mando, let me know what the play
[Post-Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
Squabble up, squabble up
Squabble up, squabble up
Squabble up (Mm, mm), squabble up (Mm, mm)
Squabble up (Mm, mm), squabble up

If this world were mine
[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
Hey, Roman numeral seven, bae, drop it like it's hot
If this world was mine, I'd take your dreams and make 'em multiply
If this world was mine, I'd take your enemies in front of God
Introduce 'em to that light, hit them strictly with that fire
Fah-fah, fah-fah-fah, fah-fah, fah
Hey, Roman numeral seven, bae, drop it like it's hot
If this world was mine, I'd take your dreams and make 'em multiply

It's a vibe, do your dance, let 'em watch
She a fan, he a flop, they just wanna kumbaya, nah
[Chorus: SZA, SZA & Kendrick Lamar]
In this world, concrete flowers grow
Heartache, she only doin' what she know
Weekends, get it poppin' on the low
Better days comin' for sure
If this world were—
If it was up to me
I wouldn't give these nobodies no sympathy
I'd take away the pain, I'd give you everything
I just wanna see you win, wanna see
If this world were mine

In this world, concrete flowers grow
Heartache, she only doin' what she know
Weekends, get it poppin' on the low
Better days comin' for sure
If this world were—
If it was up to me
I wouldn't give these nobodies no sympathy
I'd take away the pain, I'd give you everything
I just wanna see you win, wanna see
If this world were mine
[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar & SZA]
I can't lie
I trust you, I love you, I won't waste your time
I turn it off just so I can turn you on
I'ma make you say it loud
I'm not even trippin', I won't stress you out
I might even settle down for you, I'ma show you I'm a pro
I'ma take my time and turn it off
Just so I can turn you on, baby
Weekends, get it poppin' on the low
Better days comin' for sure

[Outro: SZA]
I know you're comin' for
Better days
If this world were mine

man at the garden
[Verse 1]
Twice emotional stability
Of sound body and tranquility
I deserve it all
Like minds and less enemies
Stock investments, more entities
I deserve it all
VVSs, white diamonds
GNX with the seat back, reclinin', bitch
I deserve it all
Put?my?homes?on the beachfront
Flyin'?private, what you?eat for lunch?
I deserve it all
The respect and the accolades

Lampin' on the island, watchin' Cast Away
I deserve it all
For еvery good nigga that passed away
Sent two-point-fivе million on an average day
I deserve it all
Keep my name by the world leaders
Keep my crowds loud inside Ibiza
I deserve it all
More money, more power, more freedom
Everything Heaven allowed us, bitch
I deserve it all
[Chorus]
Hmm, I deserve it all
Hmm, I deserve it all (I deserve all these flowers)
All
All
[Verse 2]
'Cause my intentions was pure
Even when you wasn't sure
Even with every allure
How much temptation you endured?
You'd probably look for every cure
I said I deserve it all
I'm wakin' up at 6 a.m.
Six miles a day, conditionin' my wind
I said I deserve it all
I'm showin' up as your friend
Tellin' truths better than your next of kin
I said I deserve it all
I never ask for too much credit
Seekin' validation just for the aesthetics, bitch
I deserve it all
I see you as a human first
Even when you didn't understand your worth
Bitch, I deserve it all
It's innate to mind my business
Writin' words, tryna elevate these children
That's why I deserve it all
Pray for those who prayed against me
Every reason why my ancestors sent me
Bitch, I deserve it all
[Chorus]
I deserve it all
I deserve it all
All
All

[Verse 3]
Put a smile on my mama
Good health and good karma
Yeah, she deserves it all
One hundred murals out in Compton
Remember me? I kept my promise
Yeah, we deserve it all
A better life for my daughter
May my son take it further than his father
Yeah, he deserves it all
A close relationship with God
Whisper to me every time I close my eyes
He say, "You deserve it all"
Keep these bitch niggas away from me
Keep all my blessings faithfully
Keep my essence contagious, that's okay with me
I burn this bitch down, don't you play with me or stay with me
I'm crashin' out right now, no one's safe with me
I did it with integrity and niggas still try hate on me, just wait and see
More blood be spillin', it's just paint to me
Dangerous me, nothin' changed with me, still got pain in me
Flip a coin, want the shameless me or the famous me?
How annoying, does it angers me to know the lames can speak
On the origins of the game I breathe? That's insane to me
It's important, I deserve it all because it's mine
Tell me why you think you deserve the greatest of all time, motherfucker
[Outro]
I deserve it all
I deserve it all

hey now
[Intro: Kendrick Lamar]
Damn, baby
I like it
Damn
Hmm
[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
Hey now, say now, I'm all about my yen
Big face Buddha, get my peace from within
Sending kites 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 Noah, I just strangled me a goat
I walked in with a therapeutic flow
Put a few hundred up, let 'em go, let 'em go
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
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 Buddha, get my peace from within
Sending kites 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
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
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 deathbed tryna match me
Oh my God, I'm 'bout to do the fool
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
Gulf streams, back to back, flyin' through the turbulence
Who is he? Free lunch, hmm, craft services
Throw your ass out this rental if I smell nervousness
Hey now, say now, let me pop my shit
Water down my wrist, arm 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?
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
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

[Bridge: Kendrick Lamar & Sam Dew]
Startin' to see spaceships on Rosecrans (Startin' to see spaceships on Rosecrans)
I seen the aliens hold hands (I seen the aliens holding hands)
They wanna see me do my dance (They wanna see me do my dance)
I let 'em watch me do my dance
[Verse 3: Dody6 & Kendrick Lamar]
Who the fuck I feel like? I feel like Joker
Harley Quinn up in the cut with a blower
Ayy, shit get spooky, every day in October
My torpedo even jumped out on smokers, J-Cat
Ayy, we mean muggin' niggas, Dody too important
If they talkin' 'bout playin' ball, me and my team gon' get to scorin'
If they talkin' 'bout playin' ball, they can take it up with Jordan
It's bald heads in the Heckler for all endorsements
Eenie, meenie, miny, moe, I'm tryna tag a nigga toe
I'm aggressive on the beat and real life, niggas know
Ayy, I tatted up my body in the pen', level four
Ayy, I sharpened up a knife and came home to a blow
My bitch gon' get to tweakin' like she playin' with her nose
Lil' brodie 'bout to crash, my young niggas be on go
I'm a different type of trophy, baby girl, I'm rose gold
Me and Dot get to slidin', put 'em in a choke hold
Bitches actin' like some niggas, niggas actin' like some hoes
Ayy, I jumped out that pen', then I jumped up in a Ghost
I'm the hottest type of nigga, see my face, then he froze
All that shit he was talkin', found out he not that bold
Okay, this shit like forty, that's a dub, okay, let's add it up
Baby ass fat, can you do it? Can you back it up?
Kickflip a nigga, I got Tech Decks
And it ain't shit for me to call and get your chin checked
Tell 'em, "Dody did that"

reincarnated
[Intro: Deyra Barrera]
Que reflejan tu mirada
La noche, tú y yo
[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
I got this fire burnin' in me from within
Concentrated thoughts on who I used to be, I'm sheddin' skin
Every day, a new version of me, a third of me demented, cemented in pain
Juggling the pros and cons of fame
I don't know how to make friends, I'm a lonely soul
I recollect this isolation, I was four years old
Truth be told, I've been battling myself
Tryna navigate the real and fake

Cynical about the judgement day
I did past life regression last year and it fucked me up
Reincarnated on this earth for a hundred plus
Body after body, lesson after lesson, let's take it back to Michigan in 1947
My father kicked me out the house 'cause I wouldn't listen to him
I didn't care about his influence, only loved what I was doing
Gifted as a musician, I played guitar on a grand level
The most talented where I'm from, but I had to rebel
And so I'm off in the sunset, searchin' for my place in the world
With my guitar up on my hip as the story unfurled
I found myself with a pocket full of money and a whole lot of respect
While the record business loved me
I was head of rhythm and blues
The women that fell to they feet, so many to choose
But I manipulated power as I lied to the masses
Died with my money, gluttony was too attractive, reincarnated
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
Another life had placed me as a Black woman in the Chitlin' Circuit
Seductive vocalist as the promoter hit the curtains
My voice was angelic, straight from heaven, the crowd sobbed
A musical genius what the articles emphasized
Had everything I wanted, but I couldn't escape addiction
Heroin needles had me in fetal position, restricted
Turned on my family, I went wherever cameras be
Cocaine, no private planes for my insanity
Self-indulged, discipline never been my sentiments
I needed drugs, to me, an 8-ball was like penicillin
Fuck love, my happiness was in that brown sugar
Sex and melodies gave me hope when nobody's lookin'
My first assistant was a small town scholar
Never did a Quaalude 'til I got myself around her
My daddy looked the other way, he saw sin in me
I died with syringes pinched in me, reincarnated
[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
My present life is Kendrick Lamar
A rapper looking at the lyrics to keep you in awe
The only factor I respected was raisin' the bar
My instincts sent material straight to the charts, huh
My father kicked me out the house, I finally forgive him
I'm old enough to understand the way I was livin'
Ego and pride had me looking at him with resentment
I close my eyes, hoping that I don't come off contentious
I'm yelling, "Father, did I finally get it right?" Everything I did was selfless
I spoke freely, when the people needed me, I helped them
I didn't gloat, even told 'em, "No," when the vultures came
Took control of my fleshly body when the money changed
Son, you do well, but your heart is closed
I can tell residue that linger from your past creates itself

Father, I'm not perfect, I got urges, but I hold them down
"But your pride has to die," okay, Father, show me how
Tell me every deed that you done and what you do it for
I kept one hundred institutions paid
Okay, tell me more
I put one hundred hoods on one stage
Okay, tell me more
I'm tryna push peace in L.A.
But you love war
No, I don't
Oh, yes, you do
Okay, then tell me the truth
Every individual is only a version of you
How can they forgive when there's no forgiveness in your heart?
I could tell you where I'm going
I could tell you who you are
You fell out of Heaven 'cause you was anxious
Didn't like authority, only searched to be heinous
Isaiah fourteen was the only thing that was prevalent
My greatest music director was you
It was colors, it was pinks, it was reds, it was blues
It was harmony and motion
I sent you down to earth 'cause you was broken
Rehabilitation, not psychosis
But now we here now
Centuries you manipulated man with music
Embodied you as superstars to see how you moving
You came a long way from garnishing evilish views
And all I ever wanted from you was love and approval
I learned a lot, no more putting these people in fear
The more that word is diminished, the more it's not real
The more light that I can capture, the more I can feel
I'm using words for inspiration as an idea
So can you promise that you won't take your gifts for granted?
I promise that I'll use my gifts to bring understanding
For every man, woman and child, how much can you vow?
I vow my life just to live one in harmony now
You crushed a lot of people keeping their thoughts in captivity
And I'm ashamed that I ever created that enemy
Then let's rejoice where we at
I rewrote the devil's story just to take our power back, 'carnated

[Intro: Kendrick Lamar]
All I ever wanted was a black Grand National
Fuck being rational, give 'em what they ask for
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]

It's not enough (Ayy)
Few solid niggas left, but it's not enough
Few bitches that'll really step, but it's not enough
Say you bigger than myself, but it's not enough (Huh)
I get on they ass, yeah, somebody gotta do it
I'll make them niggas mad, yeah, somebody gotta do it
I'll take the G pass, shit, watch a nigga do it
Huh, we survived outside, all from the music, nigga, what?
[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
They like, "What he on?"
It's the alpha and omega, bitch, welcome home
This is not a song
This a revеlation, how to get a nigga gone
You need you a man, baby, I don't understand, baby
Pay your bill and makе you feel protected like I can, baby
Teach you somethin' if you need correction, that's the plan, baby
Don't put your life in these weird niggas' hands, baby (Woah)
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
It's not enough (Ayy)
Few solid niggas left, but it's not enough
Few bitches that'll really step, but it's not enough
Say you bigger than myself, but it's not enough (Huh)
I get on they ass, yeah, somebody gotta do it
I'll make them niggas mad, yeah, somebody gotta do it
I'll take the G pass, shit, watch a nigga do it
Huh, we survived outside, all from the music, nigga, what?
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
Hey, turn his TV off
Ain't with my type activities? Then don't you get involved
Hey, what, huh, how many should I send? Send 'em all
Take a risk or take a trip, you know I'm trippin' for my dog
Who you with? Couple sergeants and lieutenants for the get back
This revolution been televised, I fell through with the knick-knacks
Hey, young nigga, get your chili up, yeah, I meant that
Hey, black out if they act out, yeah, I did that
Hey, what's up, though?
I hate a bitch that's hatin' on a bitch and they both hoes
I hate a nigga hatin' on them niggas and they both broke
If you ain't coming for no chili, what you come for?
Nigga feel like he entitled 'cause he knew me since a kid
Bitch, I cut my granny off if she don't see it how I see it, hm
Got a big mouth but he lack big ideas
Send him to the moon, that's just how I feel, yellin'
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
It's not enough (Ayy)
Few solid niggas left, but it's not enough

Few bitches that'll really step, but it's not enough
Say you bigger than myself, but it's not enough
[Part II]

Huh
Huh, huh
Hey
Hey (Mustard on the beat, ho)
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]

Niggas actin' bad, but somebody gotta do it
Got my foot up on the gas, but somebody gotta do it
Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off
Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off
Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off
Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off
[Verse: Kendrick Lamar]
Ain't no other king in this rap thing, they siblings
Nothing but my children, one shot, they disappearin'
I'm in the city where the flag be gettin' thrown like it was pass interference
Padlock around the building
Crash, pullin' up in unmarked truck just to play freeze tag
With a bone to pick like it was sea bass
So when I made it out, I made about 50K from a show
Tryna show niggas the ropes before they hung from a rope
I'm prophetic, they only talk about it how I get it
Only good for saving face, seen the cosmetics
How many heads I gotta take to level my aesthetics?
Hurry up and get your muscle up, we out the plyometric
Nigga ran up out of luck soon as I upped the highest metric
The city just made it sweet, you could die, I bet it
They mouth get full of deceit, let these cowards tell it
Walk in New Orleans with the etiquette of LA, yellin'
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
Mustard (Ah, man)
Niggas actin' bad, but somebody gotta do it
Got my foot up on the gas, but somebody gotta do it
Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off
Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off
Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off
Huh, turn his TV off, turn his TV off

Bitches sick, got their stomach in her comments
What school you went to? Gardena, Compton
Westchester, King/Drew, then we function
Little nigga, but that dog in me, that’s on Pupp
On my kids, I'll sock you niggas up
Have you ever took a fade and ran three more back-to-back?
Oh, you haven't? Then shut the fuck up and keep it rap
Gah, gah, gah
Bitch, I’m from the Land
Don't say you hate L.A. when you don't travel past the 10
Am I trippin'? Yes, I am
Meditate over some money, I see Franklin, I find zen
Bitch, I'm from the Land
Don't say you hate L.A., but live in L.A. and pretend
My neck on Tarantino, Alejandro, Spike Lee
Just know you took the scenic route if you stand by me, stupid
[Chorus: Wallie the Sensei & Roddy Ricch]
So fly in this bitch
Fifty on me, don't die tryin' and shit (Ooh-ooh)
You know I’m up and down when I slide in this bitch
Bimmers and the Jets outside in this bitch
Westside, get the money, yeah, that’s fo' sho’
Streets don't love you, better respect the code
Ain't no sleepin' in on Sunday
If it’s 'bout the money, then my niggas on go
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar & Ink]
When I walk in, oh yeah, bring that
It's unanimous, how I pop shit
When I walk in, hoes better get in check
You lookin' at a bad bitch, nothin' less
Walk, walk, walk, walk
Walk, walk, walk, walk

Tip, toe, pivot, walk
Tip, toe, pivot, walk
[Outro: Siete7x]
Ooh, don't take it personal

Just might be the first to go
Just might be, ooh
Don't take it personal
You won't be the first to know
Just might be the first to go
Just might be

Losses to the neck, but now I'm trophied up, I'm sayin', like
Bing-bop-boom-boom-boom-bop-bam
The type of shit I'm on, you wouldn't understand
The type of skits I'm on, you wouldn't understand
Big-dog business, I would not hold your hand
[Verse 4: AZ Chike]
Broke-bitch business, I could not be your man
Never got his ass whooped until we opened up that can
Damn, alley-oop me bands, I'ma slam, jam
Freak bitch, I like my MAC touchin' yams
Play that opp shit around me, I'ma tell you, "Turn it off"
Heard what happened to your mans, not sorry for your loss
Should've prayed before them shooters came and nailed him to the cross
I let your boy get a pass, bitch, you lucky he soft, for real

Load up the Pro Tools and press three
Studio filled with Jack In The Box and Pepsis
Niggas watchin' WorldStar videos, not the ESPYs
Laughin' at B. Pumper, stomach turnin', I get up and proceeded to write somethin'
Ab-Soul in the corner mumblin' raps, fumblin' packs of Black & Milds
Crumblin' kush 'til he cracked a smile
His words legendary, wishin' I could rhyme like him
Studied his style to define my pen
That was back when the only goal was to get Jay Rock through the door
Warner Brother Records, hope Naim Ali would let us know
Was excited just to go to them label meetings
Wasn't my record deal, but still, I couldn't beliеve it
Me and Rock inside thе booth hibernatin'
It was simple math, if he made it, that mean I made it
Everything I had was for the team, I remained patient
Grindin' with my brothers, it was us against them, no one above us, bless our hearts
[Chorus: Sam Dew & Ink]
Use your heart and not your eyes (Baby, just relax your mind)
If you got time, then I got time (Yeah, yeah)
Free your thoughts and watch them fly
Use your heart and not your eyes (Mm-hmm)
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
My nigga Dave had a champagne Acura
A bunch of instrumentals I freestyled in the passenger
That nigga wore several hats, a producer, a manager, director, and DJ
A hothead squabblin', Bloods, Pirus, and Keeways
For this little thing of ours we called TDE
I watched you take some penitentiary chances to say the least
Remember in the county building with MixedByAli
We tried to freak the system just to make a couple ends meet
That's my nigga for shit sure
He brought Q over, but Q didn't rap, but he learned from our inspo
We split Louisiana chicken riverboat specials
Sleepin' next to 02R consoles to be our refuge
He was homeless and I left home
Q said, "Dot, you won't be slept on, you the nigga to bet on" (Use your h—)
Top had given us dominion in the home he lived in
Hopin' that we see some millions, God bless our hearts
[Chorus: Sam Dew & Ink]
Use your heart and not your eyes (Baby, just relax your mind)
If you got time, then I got time (Yeah, yeah)
Free your thoughts and watch them fly

Use your heart and not your eyes
[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
Punch played Phil Jackson in my early practices
Strategies on how to be great amongst the averages
I picked his brain on what was ordained, highly collaborative
RET pushed the label the same, amongst the savages
Moose kept my name in the function that he would run in
TEEZ kept the vultures away from me that was comin'
Sounwave let me borrow his clothes for shows as a hype man
To cook up in this room 'til the night ends
Time flies, I'm carryin' debates of a top five
Buryin' my opps and allies
But I'd done a half job communicatin' feelings of being stagnant
Life was gettin' bigger than just rappin'
The business, what I was lackin'
Top used to record me back when it was poor me
And now we at the round table for what assures me
I guess my motivation was the yearnin' for independence
Poured everything I had left in the family business
Now it's about Kendrick, I wanna evolve, place my skillset as a Black exec'
I jog my memory, knowin' Black Hippy didn't work 'cause of me
Creatively, I moved on with new concepts in reach
Top, remember all them sessions we would strategize
To hit the streets, then come back, record three records? Ah
To tell the truth, it fucked me up when D-Man passed
The motive was the condolences, but the pride crashed
I had to bypass old mythologies I had
Put my heart on display like it was an iMac
To all my young niggas, let me be the demonstration
How to conduct differences with a healthy conversation
If that's your family, then handle it as such
Don't let the socials gas you up or let emotions be your crutch
Pick up the phone and bust it up before the history is lost
Hand-to-handshake is good when you have a heart-to-heart
[Chorus: Sam Dew & Ink]
Use your heart and not your eyes (Baby, just relax your mind)
If you got time, then I got time (Yeah, yeah)
Free your thoughts and watch them fly
Use your heart and not your eyes (Mm-hmm)

gnx
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar]
Tell 'em Kendrick did it, ayy, who showed you how to run a blitz?
Tell 'em Kendrick did it, who put the West back in front of shit?
Tell 'em Kendrick did it, ayy, I'm trippin' and I'm lovin' it
Tell 'em Kendrick did it, like, wha—

Hi, have you ever been a joint and you know it?
Have you ever had to flip your unemployment?
On the dead guys, nigga, I ain't goin'
[Verse 1: Peysoh]
Ayy, on the dead ones
We'll treat an enemigo like some bread crumbs
All of my killers on go, like, who said somethin'?
Redrum, all I think about when I see heads comе
Do my dance, hit the chop when I see opps go
Lеt 'em claim it, we the ones who really pop, bro
Don't televise it, we the ones who lettin' chops blow
Opps know, let 'em piss him off and it's a flop show
Murder man, singin' murder music off a murder van
Beat the pussy up like I been celibate and I murder sound
Who is him? One and only shotta, known as murder man
Catch you doin' dirty, it's no other way but murder plans
I broke her heart and you the type to go and fix it
Don't wanna speak if you ain't talkin' 'bout no ticket
I'm bougie with it, but I might just let you kiss it
Hit that block with diamonds on me, you could tell 'em Peysoh did it
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar & Peysoh]
Tell 'em Peysoh did it, ayy, who showed you how to run a blitz?
Tell 'em Peysoh did it, who put the West back in front of shit?
Tell 'em Peysoh did it, ayy, I'm trippin' and I'm lovin' it
Tell 'em Peysoh did it, like, wha—
Hi, have you ever been a joint and you know it?
Have you ever had to flip your unemployment?
On the dead guys, nigga, I ain't goin'
[Verse 2: Hitta J3 & Kendrick Lamar]
Hop out suicide doors, it's the Hitta, man
You don't wanna see them doors slidin' on the Caravan
I know killers who was catchin' bodies and not one fade
I was thirteen up at Avalon, poppin' chains
Fourteen, ridin' minibikes with some dead friends
Twenty-one, flag on my head like a Taliban
Twenty-five, feelin' like the box, it was full of sand
At the cemetery, fuck that, that's where I could've been
142nd, I'm connected like I'm Rosecrans
Kinda shit I seen, try and forget and I will pop a Xan'
Uppin' scores, doin' files, sacrifices like a boxing ring
Can't throw in the towel, pistol-packin' since a child
Ayy, like it's Iraq, shooter name Hussein
Ridin' with the dirty blicky, switchy, make a new flame
She said I been a dog all my life, bae, can you change?
True to my religion, Cuban links, more than two chains
[Chorus: Kendrick Lamar & Hitta J3]

Tell 'em Hitta did it, ayy, who showed you how to run a blitz?
Tell 'em Hitta did it, who put the West back in front of shit?
Tell 'em Hitta did it, ayy, I'm trippin' and I'm lovin' it
[Verse 3: YoungThreat]
It's gettin' down to the wire
Get on my Bob the Builder shit, get down with the pliers
Been comin' back-to-back hits, how this nigga ain't tired?
I'm with some rockstar bitches, they want Lizzie McGuire
I'm switchin' gears, I pop the clutch, I'll send a nigga up
A risk-taker, I'll call you niggas' bluff
If they hangin' out for real, we come deduct, tuckin' tails, they out of luck
When it's wartime, they hidin' in the cut
Y'all had y'all chance, y'all couldn't do it
I swear I'm comin' worse than y'all baby moms, I'm puttin' niggas through it
They hate to see me doin' it
Meal ticket, I'm pursuin' it
I'm in the field for real, UCLA Bruins
They askin' how I do it, how a young nigga so fluent
I kept my mouth closed and I ain't never leave no witness
D.O.A. up on the scene, tell 'em YoungThreat did it, nigga

[Intro: Deyra Barrera]
Sentado, Anita y tú
[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
Me and my bitch got a complicated relationship
She's so controllin', I noticed it ain't no playin' with
I met her when I was off the porch as a teenager
She said one day I would right my wrongs and see paper
We started out young, lookin' for some identity, made a thousand mistakes
But never did we lack chemistry
Wrappin' my hand 'round your waist
That was back when you did whatever I say
Dreams of sellin' narcotics, runnin' blocks, or robbin' banks
I was in love with you, didn't know what it was with you
Kiss you in back of the class just to get a buzz with you
Some niggas wanted you, but they weren't committed
Preoccupied playin' John Madden and bullshittin'
Remember when granny died? You looked at me and said, "Baby, dry your eyes
Depend on me as your relief, let your anger be mine"
We was locked in ever since then
So territorial, even took me 'way from my friends, hmm, hmm (Gah, gah, gah)
[Chorus: SZA]
Scared of forever, you know nothin' else is gon' pass
I just gotta let you know, woah

Whenever you want me, you got me 'til the end of time
Ooh, just gotta let you know
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
Said you gon' see other people if I didn't grow with you
Wasn't no more holdin' them pistols in front of stores with you
You want reality, not tragedy, for sure, I get you
To tell the truth, I been pretty used to what open-minded people do
In 2014, I went to Africa, baby, you was my passenger
My eyes and ears for all the years the neighborhood had baffled us
Of course I had to wrap it up, I didn't fully trust you
Fabrication, I disgust you, then you blocked me, I said, "Fuck you"
[Interlude: SZA & Kendrick Lamar]
Nigga, what?
I gave you life, I breathe the motherfuckin' charisma in this bitch
I bring the blessings, I gave you power
Nigga, I bring the rainfall, I gave you hustle
Then fall right back in love the very moment that I touch you (Gah, gah, gah)
[Chorus: SZA]
Scared of forever, you know nothin' else is gon' pass
I just gotta let you know
Whenever you want me, you got me 'til the end of time
Ooh, just gotta let you know
[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
You were spontaneous, firecracker, plus our love is dangerous
Life of passion, laughin' at you lose your temper, slightly crashin'
Dumb enough to ill reaction, ain't no disrespect
Highly sensitive, possessed, saw potential, even when it's tragic
So jealous, hate it when I hit the club to get some bitches
Wrote 'em off, rather see me hit the church and get religious
Who you foolin'? I know what you doin', you my contradiction
'Member when you caught that body and still wiggled through that sentence?
Loved you more, when you flip and lose your shit, I hugged you more
It's sexy to me, cuss they ass out and hold that grudge some more
Down bitch, I know your favorite movie, is it Notebook?
So good, if they all sub me, get 'em all booked
My baby boo, you either heal niggas or you kill niggas
Both is true, it take some tough skin just to deal with you
Logical explanation don't exist, flippin' pages
Chapter after chapter, probably remarry and head to Vegas
Bitches gettin' marked out, they can't erase our history
They margins ain't big enough, they all led by bigotry
My woman and my right hand, my saint and my sin
Ain't no bitch like my bitch 'cause that bitch been my pen
[Outro: SZA]
Gloria, I wanna take you to euphoria

Bitches want, but they ain't strong enough
I heard they talking, we notorious
If someone talking on me
I see you, you see me
Both see what we want, oh, oh
I see you, you see me
Both see what we want

„Endless“ by DGM
2026-08-01

Началото на италианската прогресив пауър метъл група DGM е като инструментално трио през
1994 г. в Рим, името е съкращение от инициалите на основателите на групата: Diego Reali,
Gianfranco Tassella и Maurizio Pariotti.
След като заемат второ място в конкурса „Битката на групите“ в Рим, формацията започва да търси
вокалист и в крайна сметка си осигурява услугите на опитния Luciano Regoli – ветеран от
множество прогресив рок групи през 70-те години на миналия век – преди да запишат EP „Random
Access Zone“ („Зона за произволен достъп“) през 1996 г. Започвайки с дебютния си албум,
подходящо наречен „Change Direction“ („Промяна на посоката“), DGM навлизат все по-дълбоко в
прогресивния пауър метъл. Още с втория си албум „Wings of Time“ („Крилете на времето“) от
1999 г., те редовно оглавяват анкети на специализирани списания, бележат участия с именити
музиканти като вокалистът на Evergrey Tom Englund и китаристът на Symphony X Michael Romeo.
Днес DGM са квинтет и са известни със своето технично музикално майсторство и извисяващи
мелодии, водени от виртуозния китарист SIMONE MULARONI. Музиката им е характерна със
сложни прогресив рок елементи и високоенергиен пауър метъл.
Дванайсетото заглавие в дискографията на DGM е концептуалният албум „ENDLESS“, или
„БЕЗКРАЙ“, в който проследяват въображаемо пътешествие на един човек да разбере изборите,
оформили живота му. Чрез ярки истории албумът изследва вечния въпрос – какъв би бил животът,
ако бях поел по друг път?
Историята започва със саморефлексията на главния герой върху обстоятелствата от сегашния му
живот. Той се бори с несигурността относно решенията, които са го довели до мястото, където е, и
се чуди на фантомните видения, които не е живял. Средната част поглежда назад към някои
ключови моменти. С яснотата на ретроспекцията героят си представя алтернативни времеви линии,
произтичащи от хипотетични избори. В тях се усеща мъката и съжалението за пропуснатите

възможности. В последния акт нашият герой достига края на своето търсене на визия. Макар и по-
възрастен и по-мъдър, той остава измъчван от необяснимото „защо“ зад криволичещия път на

живота. Темите за съдбата и свободната воля се сблъскват в края на повествованието. В крайна
сметка „ENDLESS“ надхвърля историята на един човек чрез универсалността на своята концепция.
Всички имаме моменти, в които се чудим за неизминатите пътища, като в албума авторите ни
предлагат да стигнем, след изследване на множеството възможности, до себеопрощението.
SIMONE MULARONI споделя в интервю:
„В самото начало имах няколко музикални теми, които развивах, и си помислих, че може би е
добре като всяка прогресив рок група да имаме концептуален албум в кариерата си. Затова
поговорих с момчетата, защото нямах никаква идея, имах музикалните теми като мелодии и други
неща, но нямах някаква концепция. И тогава нашият барабанист FABIO и бас китаристът ANDREA
измислиха тази идея да разкажем историята на този човек, на този герой, който е нещо като
характер. Което се отразява основно в това въображаемо пътешествие на всички избори, които той
е направил, и какво е можело да бъде различно. Винаги сме мислили за история като от филма
„Sliding Doors“ („Плъзгащи се врати“) с Gwyneth Paltrow (1998 г.), в който тя изпуска влак в
метрото и след това има различен живот заради това малко нещо, което ? се е случило. И това е
историята, която преминава основно през целия албум, така че всяка песен е отделна стъпка и е
като „ами ако това се случи, какво ще стане“ и последствията, които настъпват. Така че това е
основната идея зад концепцията“ – завършва SIMONE MULARONI.
Албума „ENDLESS“, или „БЕЗКРАЙ“, ще чуем в предаването “Картини от една изложба®
” на

програма “Хоризонт” на БНР в събота, 1 август, след новините от 16 ч.

LYRICS:
Promises
Down below, the great unknown
And coming to surface
I'll travel along the rainbow
A pot of gold I will find
No more ordinary days I will know
On through the boundaries of my fear
An extraordinary journey to face
The dawn of a new day has come

The Great Unknown
Welcome you to this world
Where everything is upside down
and all the dark’s turning to light
It’s me without my fears
Just trying hard to see it clear
I am a king without a crown
Through the mind’s eye
The siren’s call to a bright perception
It’s time for me to realize
Kingdom of thousand hopes
A burning sun for a new dawn
The highest mountain I will climb
No pain, I’ll shed no tears
Chasing wishes to fulfill
Until the end, until I die
Through the mind’s eye
The siren’s call to a bright perception
I’m not afraid I want to try
To the great unknown
Solitary introspection
A light in the darkness
I wander, discover I need to
No wonder, I’m eager to find out
A dreamer, in this world I belong
I will face the road that’s
Leading to the great unknown

Through the mind’s eye
The siren’s call to a bright perception
I’m not afraid I want to try
To the great unknown
Solitary introspection
A light in the darkness
To the great unknown
I’m walking through the line

The Wake
Waiting, hiding
Darkness unforeseen
From the shadowland I'm crawling out
Wavering will last, the time will find out a way of mine
A way of mine
The light I'll see, through the clouds where my dreams rush to come alive
Wait and praying for something to take me
Out of the world I know
Staring, watching
Shadows all I see
Carved on my soul,
Cannot live without the curse no longer last,
A spellbound's going to fade away
Going to fade away
Wait and praying for something to take me
Out of the world I know
The world I know

Solitude
Hard to know what I wonder
And I am questioning why
Tell me why I'm all alone
Searching for my desires
Now I'm going beyond and
I am eager to find the thread
Show me the way
The start of a brand new day
Leaving darkness behind
Facing my fears with no sorrows
Stars have aligned again

Holding down all of my tears
Carrying on in a different way
Walking in silence once again
And the night will fade away
Who can tell if I'm right or wrong?
Am I wasting time?
Lost in thoughts, am I fool myself?
Trying to find a way to realize
An empty heart
I'm filling up with hopes
A new treasure to find
This can be my new horizon
I need to relieve my pain
Holding down all of my tears
Carrying on in a different way
Walking in silence once again
And the night will fade away
And the night fades away
Waiting for a brand new day

From Ashes
Enlightened by signs
Acknowledged through time
Another new fire will burn
Lost in time
Into this world I am finding my way
And deep in my heart I'm believing in a new dawn
On through this path I'm looking for redemption
Heal the wounds and pass by, I'm not gonna stay
The hope will lead to all I need
Beyond the dark walls
From ashes I'm bound to rise
I'm back to life again
My new beginning
There's no more lie
I struggle and try
Throughout the twisting and turn

Run and hide
Running in circle has come to an end
Within my soul
I am believing just won't let go
On through the mist
I'm sailing to a safe shore
Heal the wounds and pass by, I'm not gonna stay
The hope will lead to all I need
Beyond the dark walls
From ashes I'm bound to rise
I'm back to life again
My new beginning

Final Call
It has been such a long time
Long long time ago
Something I’ve been searching for
I can’t let go
Alone inside the walls I’ve built
Locked behind the door
And nothing else to know
Worth fighting for
it’s clear the meaning of my life
Eyes are open wide
Wheel of time goes round and round
Finally I saw
(Eyes are open wide)
I was giving in
I’m giving up no more
It’s always been inside my mind
But now I’m in control
Molded by a resilient soul
My final call
And I know where I need to move
Somewhere else I’ll look
Stronger than the apathy I’m dying for
I’ll stop the world that’s passing by

Eyes are open wide
Wheels of time goes round and round
Finally I saw
(Eyes are open wide)
I was giving in
And I’m giving up at all

Blank Pages
Waiting for new horizons
Here I stand, questioning my soul
The answers that I need to know
Are hiding within myself and they're trying to push me away
From the life path I'm walking on
Fading, recalling all of my memories
Facing, going through these frames I'll see
What if life would have been as I wondered
Looking back at the choices I made
Dreaming of a new blank page where I'll write my life again
Once again
Live again
Please wait for a new heaven
Blowing a candle and close down my eyes
And for the way I want to go
I'll come back through the darkness
And I'll turn the page of my destiny walking in a field of rising fears
That I should remember
Lying, I am my life's great pretender
Changing, moving through time I'll see
What if life would have been as I wondered
I'll fight for who's to love and to hate
I will search for the key that is going to unlock the door
I will search
Lying, I am my life's great pretender
Changing, moving through time I'll see
What if life would have been as I wondered
I'll fight for who's to love and to hate
Dreaming of a new blank page where I'll write my life again

...of Endless Echoes
Distant voices calling
Faded memories
Another day inspiring an hollow melody

Death and blind I have lived in constant apathy
Awaken by the rumbling of thousand symphonies
Echoes from the ages
A dreamer's legacy
Whispering from the shadows a timeless prophecy
Cold as ice my life's been
Praying for the heat
To set me free from agony
New journey to begin
Waiting
For the wind to spread my cries
And flying on the wings of time
And I'm breathing
A new found joy that ease the sorrow
A passage to a brand new day
I should know my life is just a game
Like a roller coaster to the moon
A leaf that's floating with the wind, no place for landing
And I should know that I'm in need for more
But I'm a simple man who doesn't understand
It's all within my hand
To the wind I'll surrender
Those feelings I'll survive
Within myself I know I am through
I will rise
I walk away
From the chains I free myself
I'll turn the darkness to light
Hunter or prey?
Chasing my dream 'til the day... the journey is over
Time
On through time I'll realize
All of the tears that I have cried
They are drops of destiny, a motion impending
And I
I'm only going with the flow
But I keep pushing more
'Cause I will see the shore
It's all within my hand
To the wind I'll surrender
Those feelings I'll survive
And all the time I've been striving to feel alive

I walk away
From the chains I free myself
I'll turn the darkness to light
Hunter or prey?
Chasing my dream 'til the day... the journey is over
Here comes again the fear of a lifetime
Dragging me down to a place I know well
Down in a hole, starless in sorrow and pain
The fighting is gone
Or am I just gone insane?
I'll tame the storm and search for a light
Leading the race
The hope is in sight
I walk away
From the chains I free myself
I'll turn the darkness to light
Hunter or prey?
Chasing my dream 'til the day... the journey is over

 

Обещания
Под мен е великото неизвестно
И щом изляза на повърхността
Ще пътувам по дъгата и
Ще намеря гърне със злато
Няма да има повече обикновени дни за мен
Отвъд границите на моя страх
Едно необикновено пътешествие, на което да потегля
Зората на нов ден дойде

Великото неизвестно
Добре дошли в този свят
Където всичко е с главата надолу
и всичкият мрак се превръща в светлина
Това съм аз без страховете си
Просто се мъча да го видя ясно
Аз съм крал без корона
През окото на ума
Сирената зове към светло възприятие
Време е да осъзная
Царство на хиляди надежди
Изгарящо слънце за нова зора
Най-високата планина, която ще изкача
Без болка, няма да проливам сълзи
Имам желания за изпълняване
До края, докато не умра
През окото на ума
Сирената зове към светло възприятие
Не се страхувам, искам да опитам
Към великото неизвестно
Самотно самовглъбяване
Светлина в мрака
Скитам се, откривам, че се нуждая
Нищо чудно, нетърпелив съм да откривам
Мечтател, моето място е в този свят
Ще се изправя пред пътя, който
Води към голямото неизвестно
През окото на ума
Сирената зове към светло възприятие
Не се страхувам, искам да опитам

Към великото неизвестно
Самотно самовглъбяване
Светлина в мрака
Към голямото неизвестно
Вървя отвъд границата

Следата
Чакам и се крия
Непредвиден мрак
От страната на сенките изпълзявам
Колебанието ще продължи, с времето ще открия своя път
Своя път
Светлината, която ще видя, през облаците, където мечтите ми бързат да оживеят
Чакам и се моля нещо да ме отведе
Извън света, който познавам
Взирам се, наблюдавам
Сенките са всичко, което виждам
Издълбани в душата ми,
Не мога да живея без проклятието, но не мога повече да го търпя
Омагьосаният ще избледнее
Ще избледнее
Чакам и се моля нещо да ме отведе
Отвъд света, който познавам
Света, който познавам

Самота
Трудно е да знам какво се чудя
И се питам защо
Кажи ми защо съм съвсем сам
Търся желанията си
Сега отивам отвъд и
Нямам търпение да намеря нишката
Покажи ми пътя
Началото на един чисто нов ден
Оставям мрака зад гърба си
Сблъсквам се със страховете си без жал
Звездите отново се подредиха
Сдържам всичките си сълзи
Продължавам по различен начин
Вървя отново в тишина

И нощта ще избледнее
Кой може да каже дали съм прав или греша?
Дали губя време?
Дали, изгубен в мисли, се заблуждавам?
Опитвам се да намеря начин да разбера.
Празно сърце
Изпълвам се с надежди
Ново съкровище, което да открия
Това може да бъде моят нов хоризонт
Трябва да облекча болката си
Сдържам всичките си сълзи
Продължавам по различен начин
Вървя отново в тишина
И нощта ще избледнее
И нощта избледнява
Чакам чисто нов ден

От пепелта
Просветлен от знаци
Признат във времето
Друг нов огън ще лумне
Изгубен във времето
В този свят намирам пътя си
И дълбоко в сърцето си вярвам в нова зора
По този път търся изкупление
Излекувай раните и ме отмини, аз няма да остана
Надеждата ще ме отведе до всичко, от което се нуждая
Отвъд тъмните стени
Аз съм длъжен да възкръсна от пепелта
Връщам се отново към живота
Моето ново начало
Няма повече лъжа
Боря се и се мъча
С криволиците и завоите
Бягам и се крия
Бягането в кръг е приключило

В душата си
Аз вярвам и няма да се откажа
През мъглата
Плавам към безопасен бряг
Излекувай раните и ме отмини, аз няма да остана
Надеждата ще ме отведе до всичко, от което се нуждая
Отвъд тъмните стени
Аз съм длъжен да възкръсна от пепелта
Връщам се отново към живота
Моето ново начало

Последен зов
То беше толкова отдавна
Много отдавна
Нещо, което търсех
Не мога да го пусна
Сам съм в стените, които построих
Заключен зад вратата
И нищо друго, за което да знам
Че си струва да се боря
Ясен е смисълът на живота ми
Очите ми са широко отворени
Колелото на времето се върти
Най-накрая прозрях
(Очите ми са широко отворени)
Предавах се
Но няма повече да се отказвам
Винаги е било в ума ми
Но сега го контролирам
Оформен от устойчива душа
Моят последен зов
И знам къде трябва да се преместя
Някъде другаде ще погледна
По-силно от апатията, от която умирам
Ще спра света, който минава
Очите ми са широко отворени
Колелата на времето се въртят
Най-накрая прозрях

(Очите ми са широко отворени)
Предавах се
Но вече изобщо няма да се отказвам

Празни страници
Чакам нови хоризонти
Ето ме, стоя, в душата си изпитвам колебание
Отговорите, които трябва да знам
Се крият в мен и се опитват да ме отблъснат
От житейския път, по който вървя
Избледнявам, припомням си всичките си спомени
Когато се изправя и премина през тези рамки, ще видя
Ами ако животът беше такъв, какъвто се колебаех да го направя
Оглеждайки се назад към изборите, които направих
Мечтая за нова празна страница, където ще напиша живота си отново
Още веднъж
Да живея наново
Моля, изчакай едно ново небе
Издухвам свещта и затварям очи
И за пътя, по който искам да вървя
Ще се върна през тъмнината
И ще ??обърна страницата на съдбата си, ходейки в поле от нарастващи страхове
Които трябва да помня
Лъжейки, аз съм великият измамник в живота си
Променяйки се, движейки се през времето, ще видя
Ами ако животът беше такъв, какъвто ми се искаше да го направя
Ще се боря за това кого да обичам и кого да мразя
Ще търся ключа, който ще отключи вратата
Ще търся
Лъжейки, аз съм великият измамник в живота си
Променяйки се, движейки се през времето, ще видя
Ами ако животът беше такъв, какъвто ми се искаше да го направя
Ще се боря за това кого да обичам и кого да мразя
Мечтая за нова празна страница, където ще напиша живота си отново

...От безкрайни еха
Далечни гласове, които зоват
Избледнели спомени
Още един ден, вдъхновяващ куха мелодия
Мъртъв и сляп, живеех в постоянна апатия
Събуден от тътена на хиляди симфонии

Ехо от векове
Наследство на мечтател
Шепнещо от сенките вечно пророчество
Студен като лед бе животът ми
Моля се за топлината
Да ме освободи от агонията
За ново пътешествие, на което да потегля
Чакам
Вятърът да разпространи виковете ми
И летя на крилете на времето
И дишам
Новооткрита радост, която облекчава тъгата
Път към чисто нов ден
Трябва да знам, че животът ми е просто игра
Като влакче на ужасите към луната
Лист, което се носи с вятъра, няма място за кацане
И аз трябва да знам, че имам нужда от повече
Но аз съм прост човек, който не разбира, че
Всичко е в ръцете ми
На вятъра ще се предам
Тези чувства ще преживея
Вътре в себе аз си знам, че съм приключил
Ще се възнеса
Тръгвам си
Освобождавам се от веригите
Ще превърна мракав светлина
Ловец или плячка?
Преследвам мечтата си, до деня, в който пътуването свърши
Време
През времето ще осъзная
Всички сълзи, които съм изплакал
Те са капки на съдбата, предстоящо движение
И аз
Просто се нося по течението
Но продължавам да се боря
Защото ще видя брега
Всичко е в ръцете ми
На вятъра ще се предам
Тези чувства ще преживея
И през цялото време се стремях да се чувствам жив
Тръгвам си
Освобождавам се от веригите

Ще превърна тъмнината в светлина
Ловец или плячка?
Преследвам мечтата си, докато деня... пътуването свърши
Ето го отново страхът на целия ми ??живот
Дърпа ме надолу към място, което познавам добре
Долу в пропастта, беззвезден в скръб и болка
Борбата е свършила
Или просто съм полудял?
Ще укротя бурята и ще търся светлината
Водя състезанието
Надеждата е в полезрението
Тръгвам си
Освобождавам се от веригите
Ще превърна мрака в светлина
Ловец или плячка?
Преследвам мечтата си, докато деня... пътуването свърши

„Preacher Kids“ by Robert Randolph
2026-07-25

Сред носителите на отличията “Grammy”, връчени на 1 февруари 2026 г. в зала Crypto.com Arena в
Лос Анжелис, направи впечатление ROBERT RANDOLPH – американски певец, интерпретатор на
госпъл, рок, блус, соул и фънк, чийто албум „PREACHER KIDS“ („ДЕЦА ПРОПОВЕДНИЦИ“), бе
награден като най-добър в категорията за съвременен блус албум.
ROBERT RANDOLPH е pedal steel китарист, най-вече известен от участието си в американската
госпъл група ROBERT RANDOLPH AND THE FAMILY BAND, свиреща със завидно рокендрол
самочувствие. Лидерът ROBERT RANDOLPH изучава още като дете техниките на pedal steel
китарата в църквата „Домът на Бога“ – Keith Dominion, историческа, предимно чернокожа
петдесятна деноминация, със седалище в Нашвил, щата Тенеси. Тази църква е основана през 1903
г. от майка Mary Magdalena L. Tate, днес има над 100 локации по цял свят и е известна в
музикалните среди с богатата си традиция в госпъл музиката от типа на "sacred steel"(„свещена
стомана“).
Израсъл с тези традиции, ROBERT RANDOLPH добива славата на виртуоз на pedal steel китарата и
затова е канен за съвместни участия от редица музиканти, сред които Buddy Guy, Elton John, Eric
Clapton, Carlos Santana, Beyoncé, Ozzy Osbourne, Ringo Starr и Dave Matthew.
Албумът „ДЕЦА ПРОПОВЕДНИЦИ“ е концептуално изследване на възпитанието в строгите
традиции на църквата „Домът на Бога“. ROBERT противопоставя своите благоговейни госпъл
корени на суров бунтарски южняшки рок и блус звук, разглеждайки сложността на нарушаването
на религиозните традиции. В албума RANDOLPH ни представя хора, отгледани в строги, силно
религиозно ориентирани семейства, където споделят това фокусирано върху църквата възпитание,
изследвайки как чувствата за религиозна вина, мисловните процеси и културата остават в костите
им, дори когато са обзети от соления, потен и безкомпромисен свят извън църквата. Така в
стилистиката на албума властва диалога между традиционните очаквания и съвременните
реалности, смесвайки госпъла с американа и блус, в съчетание с елементи от спонтанна
импровизация на живо.
ROBERT RANDOLPH споделя в интервю:
„PREACHER KIDS“ е концептуален албум, има тема, която преминава през него в текста.
Концепцията и темата в него са за нагласата, с която аз идвам от църква в музикална група, затова
всички сме като деца проповедници, и ние събираме всички истории и ги гледаме като
документални филми. Това се отнася до Aretha Franklin, която идва от проповедниците, и Sly Stone,
и дори хора като George Clinton, и това са толкова много хора, включително James Brown и Ray
Charles, и всички те са различни хора, и всички ние имаме подобни истории. Накратко, всички ние
сме произлезли от този строг, традиционен тип мислене или преподаване, или сме израснали по
този начин, а след това сме се разбунтували по някакъв начин, но всички ние имаме визия да
излезем и да споделим своите красиви музикални идеи и да имаме всички тези различни, нови
възгледи върху писането на песни и концепции, и всичко е едно и също при нас. Това са подобни
истории, защото всички сме преминали през борбата с всички тези църковни традиции. Така че
това е концепцията – деца проповедници, историята на всички деца проповедници“ – завършва
ROBERT RANDOLPH.
Албума „PREACHER KIDS“, или „ДЕЦА ПРОПОВЕДНИЦИ“, ще чуем в предаването “Картини от
една изложба®

” на програма “Хоризонт” на БНР в събота, 25 юли, след новините от 16 ч.

Man, I'll always love that sound.

And wash away our sins.
seven generations gotta bring the light.

Gravity
Fell in love, we stuck back in the tunnel.
We'll be right back.
Friends tell you I'm broke, I'm messin' around
Woo! I only had a couple dollars for drinks, but you seemed happy.
But your mama said your new man ain't no good either.
Come back, come back to me I've changed. I don't hold no more.
Come back, come back to me I’m the man who you looking for
Be your phone number when I ain't no good.
But on my Sunday bash, I knew I got a real woman.
Tell my boys it's pretty but you won't do it.
Help somebody understand what we've been through.
Sittin' on a plane round the country I don't know. First class street drinks. Listen to Fish Playlist
again and again.
But your mama still said your new man ain't no good either.
Now you play a pickleball, don't call me no more. Hey!
Come back, come back, come back to me I've changed. I don't hold no more.
Come back, come back, come back to me I’m the man who you looking for

Like To Love You Baby
I'd like to love you, baby.
Keep my husband, baby, too.
Put my arms around you.
That's all I wanna do.
I know I've got you, baby.
Like to love you, baby. And keep my other baby, too.
Sometimes my baby's sleepy.
Sometimes she's not around.
Sometimes I look to find her.
I know she'll put me down.

Won't you let me hold you?
Let me lean on your head.
I'd like to love you, baby, and keep my other baby, too.
The sun doesn't shine no more.
I know I've got you.
I'd like to love you, baby.
And keep my other baby too
I said I'd like to love you, baby.
And keep my other baby too.
Well, well, I said I'd like to love you, baby.
And keep my lover baby too.

Choir Woman
Rumor has it she's a serial killer.
First row, second to last, same address every week.
I gotta send this guy, she stands another pill.
Holy rose of a stainless, I know she'll ready to eat.
I get up cause she got the power.
I get high when the beat gets louder.
I get up cause you got the power.
I get high when the beat gets louder.
She looks at me with eyes that say beware.
I think I'm next to gold, caught in a lying lie.
Choir Woman
Choir Woman
Choir Woman
I need that choir woman
Oh, oh, oh. Come and touch my mind.
Leaving marks as she stops on her linoleum, uh.
She keeps me hypnotized.
She keeps me weak and foul
Steps Behind! Steps Behind the podium.
Opens her mouth to testify about all the good
Get it up cause she got the power
Get it high when the beat is louder
I'm just another slave to all her desire
Choir Woman
Choir Woman
Choir Woman
I need that choir woman
Oh, oh, oh. Come and touch my mind
Stand up

Stand up
Stand up and ready to go

Sinner

King Karma
When it all comes down around you
All your hopes and dreams
And the ones that were there to crown you
Found a brand-new king
I ain’t gonna say I told you so
There’s no shame in getting laid low
I am here for the ride
It’s a roller coaster
Better lean into what your daddy told you
You never know what it is really about
‘til you taste your own blood in your mouth
Alright
Yeah, alright
God will forgive him that brought you pain
But I’m coming back with a list of names
Alright
Yeah, alright

Karma comes around
But Imma get you first ‘cause karma might wait too long
We’re all kinfolk
Yeah, that’s right
Seat ‘em at your table to your left and right
Yeah, alright
Friends kept close and your enemies closer
Better lean in to what your daddy told you
Alright
Yeah, alright
Karma comes around
But Imma get you first ‘cause karma might wait too long
Karma comes around
But Imma get you first ‘cause karma might wait too long
Karma comes around
But Imma get you first ‘cause karma might wait too long
Karma comes around

When Will the Love Rain Down
verse
Been going 'round and 'round in circles, tryna punch a hole in the sky
I just wanna feel the warmth again
Must've took a billion steps, 'cause now the trail runs cold in the night
Hear the baby cryin' loud
hook
Ha, ooh
Ha, ooh
verse
City drifting
I keep my head pointed way low to the ground
But then I looked here, and the crowd shouted
"Hey, look up, the skies are open now"
chorus
When will the love rain down?
The levees are broken now
When will the love rain down?
Take me higher, higher, higher, higher, higher
I'm begging the sky, "Please, can you spare one drop of love for humanity?"
bridge
What goes around comes around, goes around, comes around
Goes around, comes around, goes around, comes around
Rich man, poor man, young man, old man

Fighting for the power as the wind blows louder
What goes around comes around, goes around, comes around
Goes around, comes around, goes around, comes around
Good man, bad man turn into each other
As the foot stomps hard and tramples every flower
verse
My heart is aching right now
I'm sick and tired of sitting 'round and waitin' for it
There's gotta be a way to break free
Stop fighting and just make peace
There's bound to be a way to break free
Oh, just drop down on your knees, 'cause the skies are open now
chorus
When will the love rain down?
The levees are broken now
When will the love rain down?
Take me higher, higher, higher, higher, higher
I'm begging the sky, "Please, can you spare one drop of love for humanity?"
verse
The skies are open now
chorus
When will the love rain down?
The levees are broken now
When will the love rain down?
Take me higher, higher, higher, higher, higher
I'm begging the sky, "Please, can you spare one drop of love for humanity?"

Големи Жени
Хей, Господи
Тя има повече от достатъчно
Косата, която да размята пред целия свят
Не се интересува
Ще ме разтърси
Ще ме направи слаб
Ще ме хване за яката, ще ме изпере и ще повтори
Правя ли го правилно? (научи ме)
Имаш ли някоя дума за мен? (научи ме)
Ще бъда добро, добро момче, пази ме
Мисля, че се влюбвам
Направи ми каквото трябва
Ден и нощ
Големите жени ме възнасят
Изпитано и вярно всеки път
Да, искам те
Големите жени ме карат да се чувствам добре
Да, Господи
Отпред и отзад
Тя има любов на цели купчини
Тя вика името ми и аз идвам
Докторе, докторе, имам нужда от още от тази рецепта
Голяма, силна, супер съблазнителка
С всички лекарства
Това е всичко, от което се нуждая
Тя е здрава като скала
Тя е за мама и за тате
Тя е здрава като скала
Виждам я да идва по улицата
Тя е истинска
Знаеш какво казвам
Големите жени ме възнасят
Чувствам се чисто нов
Не мога да ти се наситя
Големите жени ме карат да се чувствам добре
Големите момичета влагат тази любов в живота
Продължаваш да ми правиш всичко както трябва
Докато не докосна небето
Големите жени влагат тази любов в живота
Изпитано и вярно всеки път
Да, искам те
Големите жени ме карат да се чувствам добре
Големите момичета влагат тази любов в живота

Хей, момчета, (да)
Имам нужда от голяма, хубава жена
Като шеф, напълно финансирана, на сто процента истинска
Двойно повече от всичко
Създава този вкус с двоен сос
Говори любовни думи, докато всичко не се възпламени
Защото обичам това, което правиш за мен
Ти разтърсваш света ми от А до Я
Ти си всичко, от което наистина се нуждая на света
Обичай ме както трябва
По цял ден и нощ
Големите жени ме възнасят
Аз съм точно там, където принадлежа
Не, не мога да сбъркам
Големите жени ме карат да се чувствам добре

7 поколения
Благодаря ти. Чао!
Седем поколения взеха избрания.
Баба ми би казала: „Бащата беше герой за единствения си син.
Затова съм тук днес.
С братовчедите ми в пролива Джърси,
мама каза: „Не тичай наоколо.“
„Създадохме семейна група из Близкия изток.
Човече, винаги ще обичам този звук.
седем поколения трябва да донесат светлината
седем поколения трябва да донесат светлината
седем поколения да
седем поколения да
Аз и малките хора се смяхме.
И ремонтирахме кухнята.
И в този ред, това никога повече не се случва.
И сега и двамата имаме
Седем поколения до избраните.
Тя е тази, която носи светлината.
Моето страхотно звездно дете ще го постигне.
Да, тя ще вдигне бунт.
Седемте поколения трябва да донесат светлината.
Запали свещта и не бий камбаните
Времето най-накрая дойде.
Трябва да запазя мястото за онзи, който бях.
За сина на баща ми.

Ако дойдеш в рая с добро сърце, ти ще си следващият крал.
Свири с оркестъра и си сложи короната.
И измий греховете ни.
Седем поколения трябва да донесат светлината.
Седем поколения трябва да донесат светлината

Гравитация
Влюбихме се, заседнахме в тунела.
Ще се върнем след малко.
Приятелите ти казват, че съм разорен, че съм разхайтен.
Ура! Имах само няколко долара за питиета, но ти изглеждаше щастлива.
Но майка ти каза, че и новият ти мъж не става.
Върни се, върни се при мен, промених се, вече не правя така.
Върни се, върни се при мен, аз съм мъжът, когото търсиш.
Намирам твоя телефонен номер, когато не съм добре.
Но на неделното парти знам, че имам истинска жена.
Казвам на момчетата ми, че е хубаво, но няма да го направя.
Нека поне някой разбере през какво сме преминали.
Седя в самолет, обикалям страната, не знам. Пия първокласни улични напитки.
Слушам плейлиста за риба отново и отново.
Но майка ти все още казва, че новият ти мъж също не е добър.
Сега играеш пикълбол, не ми се обаждай повече.
Върни се, върни се при мен, промених се, вече не правя така.
Върни се, върни се при мен, аз съм мъжът, когото търсиш.

Искам да те обичам
Бих искала да те обичам, скъпи.
Но и да запазя и съпруга си.
Да те прегърна е всичко, което искам да правя.
Знам, че те имам, скъпи.
Обичам да те обичам, скъпи.
Но искам да запазя и другия си любим.
Понякога любимата ми е сънлива. Понякога не е наоколо.
Понякога я търся. Знам, че ще ме довърши.
Няма ли да ми позволиш да те прегърна? Нека се облегна на главата ти.
Бих искал да те обичам, скъпа, и да запазя и другата си жена.
Слънцето вече не грее. Знам, че те имам.
Бих искал да те обичам, скъпа. И да запазя и другата си любима.

Хористка
Носи се слух, че е сериен убиец.
Първи ред, предпоследен, един и същ адрес всяка седмица.
Трябва да изпратя на този човек, тя получава още едно хапче.
Света роза от неръждаема стомана, знам, че тя е готова да ме изяде
Ставам, защото тя има силата.
Опиянявам се, когато ритъмът стане по-силен.
Ставам, защото ти имаш силата.
Опиянявам се, когато ритъмът стане по-силен.
Тя ме гледа с очи, които казват „пази се“.
Мисля, че съм до златото, хванат в лъжлива лъжа.
Хористка
Хористка
Хористка
Нуждая се от тази жена
Ела и докосни ума ми.
Оставя следи, докато спира на линолеума
Тя ме омайва и ме вкарва в хипноза
Заради нея съм слаб и мръсен
Бяга и се скрива зад подиума
Отваря уста, за да разкаже за всичко добро
Издига се, защото тя има силата
Възнася се високо, когато ритъмът е по-силен
Аз съм просто още един роб на всичките ? желания
Хористка
Хористка
Хористка
Трябва ми тази хористка
О, ох, ох Ела и докосни ума ми
Стани
Стани
Стани и бъди готов да тръгнеш

Грешник
Израснал съм в църква
Свещеникът не научи добре
Ако не се поправиш
Отиваш директно в ада
Просто сме тук и се забавляваме
Те трябва да се отпуснат
Трябва да отворят очите си
Може би да опитат малко вино в чашата си

Можеш да ме наречеш грешник
Никой не греши сам (Можеш да ме наречеш)
Наречи ме грешник
Никой не греши сам (Можеш да ме наречеш)
Наречи ме грешник
Така ме наричат ??у дома (Да, можеш да ме наречеш)
Наречи ме грешник
Никой не греши сам
Трудно е да се разбере
Когато нещо нарушава традицията
И защо някои хора се опитват
Повечето просто се страхуват да станат вещици
Нашвил, Тенеси
Добро място да бъдеш сам
В 2 сутринта в Тутси
И се чувствам като у дома си
Наречи ме грешник
Никой не греши сам (Можеш да ме наречеш)
Обади ми се грешник
Никой не греши сам (Можеш да ме наречеш)
Наречи ме грешник
Така ме наричат ??у дома (Можеш да ме наречеш)
Наречи ме грешник
Никой не греши сам
Ние сме просто тълпа грешници
Ние сме просто тълпа грешници

Крал Карма
Когато всичко се срине около теб
Всичките ти надежди и мечти
И тези, които ти сложиха короната
Са си намерили чисто нов крал
Няма да кажа, че ти казах, че ще стане така
Няма срам в това да се смириш
Тук съм за пътуването
Това е влакче на ужасите
По-добре разчитай на това, което ти е казал баща ти
Никога не знаеш за какво всъщност става въпрос
докато не вкусиш собствената си кръв в устата си
Бог ще прости на този, който ти е причинил болка
Но аз се връщам със списък с имена
Кармата идва

Но аз ще те хвана пръв, защото кармата може да чака твърде дълго
Всички сме един род
Да, точно така
Сложи ги на масата си отляво и отдясно
Приятелите са близо, а враговете - още по-близо
По-добре разчитай на това, което ти е казал баща ти
Кармата идва
Но ще те хвана пръв, защото кармата може да чака твърде дълго
Кармата идва
Но ще те хвана пръв, защото кармата може да чака твърде дълго
Кармата идва
Но ще те хвана пръв, защото кармата може да чака твърде дълго
Кармата идва

Кога ли ще завали любовта
Въртя се в кръг, опитвам се да пробия дупка в небето
Просто искам отново да усетя топлината
Сигурно съм направил милиард крачки, защото сега пътеката е студена в нощта
Чувам бебето да плаче силно
Градът се носи по течението
Държа главата си наведенаниско към земята
Но тогава погледнах насам и тълпата извика
„Хей, вижте, небето се отвори“
Кога ли ще завали любовта?
Дигите се разкъсаха
Кога ли ще завали любовта?
Вдигни ме по-високо, по-високо, по-високо, по-високо
Моля небето: „Моля те, можеш ли да отделиш една капка любов за човечеството?“
Каквото се случва, се случва, се случва
Кръгово, се случва, се случва, се случва
Богатият, бедният, младият, старецът
Се борят за властта, докато вятърът духа по-силно
Каквото се случва, се случва, се случва, се случва
Кръгово, се случва, се случва, се случва
Добрият и лошият човек се превръщат един в друг
Докато кракът тропа силно и стъпква всяко цвете
Сърцето ми боли в момента
Писна ми и съм уморен да седя и да го чакам
Трябва да има начин да се освободя
Спри да се бориш и просто сключи мир
Със сигурност има начин да се освободя
О, просто падни на колене, защото небесата са отворени сега

Кога ли ще завали любовта?
Дигите се разкъсаха
Кога ли ще завали любовта?
Вдигни ме по-високо, по-високо, по-високо, по-високо
Моля небето: „Моля те, можеш ли да отделиш една капка любов за човечеството?“

Любовник за цяла нощ
Любовник за цяла нощ, трябва да спечелиш
Няма друг начин да спечелиш
Сега не спим, скъпа
Спим с дни
Хайде да се гмурнем дълбоко в онази река, приятелю
Всички мои любовници ще бъдат в прегръдките ми
Танцуваме под прикритието на мрака
В полунощ се въртим в кръг
В полунощ, скъпа
Ето как звучи
Ето как звучи
Дръж се здраво
Трябва да усетя сладката ти кожа върху моята
Сблъскваме се един в друг се до зори
Любовник за цяла нощ, пълна луна в очите ти
Любовник за цяла нощ, никога не казвай сбогом
Няма да те пусна да си тръгнеш, докато не кажеш, че си доволна
Няма да спра, докато тази нощ не пресъхне
Дръж се здраво
Трябва да усетя тази сладка кожа върху моята
Давай
Тя не бърза
До зората, да
Спуснете се
Ето как караме
Любовник за цяла нощ, друг мъж с очи
Продължава мистерията, докато луната залезе
Имаме километри за изминаване
Срещни ме в сенките и ще издигнем слънцето
Любовник за цяла нощ
Любовник за цяла нощ
Какво ще кажеш, какво ще кажеш сега

Басейн Рузвелт
Северен Холивуд
Мислех, че ще си някъде другаде

Но после се озоваваш там
Има само едно място
Където отиваш
Отваряш вратата
Вървиш до рампата
Жената казва: „Нека да те проверя”
Аз казах: „Защо?“
Тя каза: „Само защото изглеждаш много тъжен.“
Аз казах: „Човече, просто се опитвам да си намеря място на басейна Рузвелт.“
Защото съм от известно време в лошо настроение и имам нужда от питие на басейна
Рузвелт.
Ела да ме спасиш, ела да говориш с мен,
караш ме да се чувствам добре, но имам нужда от промяна.
Опитваш се да ме превърнеш в грешник.
Но аз казах, че мисля, че съм светец
Просто искам малко помощ.
Тя ме погледна и каза: „Момче, не знаеш ли?“
Казах: „Какво имаш предвид, когато идваш тук? На края на реката?“
Казах: „За какво говориш?“
Тя каза: „Казвам се Стейси.“
Попитах: „Стейси, откъде си?“
Тя каза: „Аз съм от Бърбанк.“
Казах: „Аз съм от Ню Джърси.“
Тя каза: „Искам да направиш едно пътуване дотук.“
Казах: „На път съм от 200 дни и просто... лейди, имам нужда от едно питие сега на
басейна Рузвелт.“
“Боби, какво става?”
Казах аз, една дама отляво и една дама отдясно
Ме черпи напитки на басейна Рузвелт
Не знаете за какво говоря.
Сейнт Грегъри и Смоукс
Всички са добре дошли в Калифорния
А, налейте ми две чаши Версаче
Пийнете си малко уиски
Защото имам нужда от любов,
Трябва да се чувствам добре, да
Тук е моето място, защото тук ни е добре
Пътят, пътят, пътят, пътят
Защото пътувам 10 000 мили
Но няма място като басейна Рузвелт, басейн Рузвелт
Можеш да отидеш на Хаваите
Хората там са доста мили
Можеш да отидеш в Лондон
Но там няма партита край басейна
Можеш да отидеш в Маями
Но хората изглеждат твърде странно
Трябва да се качиш на самолет
И след това да кацнеш в Лос Анджелис
Ела там и прекарай време с мен

С мен в Хотел „Роуз“
Някои казват, че съм скапаняк, но няма проблем,
Аз съм на басейна „Рузвелт“
