We bring to you the official lyrics of ‘Die Hard’, a song by Kendrick Lamar featuring Blxst and Amanda Reifer to help you sing along whiles you listen.
In a very Nipsey track, Kendrick opens up about his insecurities and struggles involving honesty and sharing in a relationship. He is having doubts as to whether he will still be loved if he opens up, an uncertainty probably built by past traumas and relationships.
However, by the end of the song, he accepts that he must overcome his past to reach his best form and be a full-time lover, by letting go and realizing the current relationship is not as empty and this lover is not as unloyal as the ones in the past.
[Intro: Kendrick Lamar & Kadhja Bonet]
I pop the pain away, I slide the pain away
I pop the pain away, I slide the pain away
I picked you up when you fell and cut your knee
I told you not to cry and held you close to me
[Chorus: Blxst]
I hope I’m not too late to set my demons straight
I know I made you wait, but how much can you take?
I hope you see the God in me, I hope you can see
And if it’s up, stay down for me, yeah
[Post-Chorus: Amanda Reifer]
Shimmy, shimmy, cocoa pop
Serafina, flame in ice
Where I’d be without your love
Rest your wings and trust, I feel you
Deep (I know you feel) deep (Know you feel)
Deep (I know you feel) deep (Too deep)
Deep (I know you feel) deep (Know you feel)
Deep (I know you feel) deep

[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
Do you love me? (Okay) Do you trust me? (Okay)
Can I trust you? (Okay) Don’t judge me (Okay)
I’ma die hard, it gets ugly (Okay)
Too passionate, it gets ugly (Okay)
Mmm, ah-ah
I wonder where I lost my way
Mmm, ah-ah
Been waiting on your call all day
Tell me you in my corner right now
When I fall short, I’m leaning on you to cry out
We all got enough to lie about
My truth too complicated to hide now
Can I open up? Is it safe or not?
I’m afraid a little, you relate or not?
Have faith a little, I might take my time
Ain’t no saving face this time
[Chorus: Blxst]
I hope I’m not too late to set my demons straight
I know I made you wait, but how much can you take?
I hope you see the God in me, I hope you can see
And if it’s up, stay down for me, yeah
[Post-Chorus: Amanda Reifer]
Shimmy, shimmy, cocoa pop
Serafina, flame in ice
Where I’d be without your love
Rest your wings and trust, I feel you
Deep (I know you feel) deep (Know you feel)
Deep (I know you feel) deep (Too deep)
Deep (I know you feel) deep (Know you feel)
Deep (I know you feel) deep
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
I got some regrets (I-I-I, yeah, yeah)
But my past won’t keep me from my best (I-I-I, yeah, yeah)
Subtle mistakes felt like life or death (I-I-I, yeah, yeah)
I wanna see the family stronger
I wanna see the money longer
You know that I’d die for you (I’d die for you)
I get emotional about life
The lost ones keepin’ me up at night
The world be reminding me it’s danger
I’ll still risk it all for a stranger
If I told you who I am, would you use it against me?
Right or wrong, no stone, just love to send me
[Chorus: Blxst]
I hope I’m not too late to set my demons straight
I know I made you wait, but how much can you take?
I hope you see the God in me, I hope you can see
And if it’s up, stay down for me, yeah
[Outro: Blxst]
Baby, you make me pray for London
Yeah, ’cause if I won it all without you involved
I guess it’s all for nothing
