I don't talk about these things if I haven't lived them, and I've hurt people in my life. It's something I still have to think about when I sleep at night.

More quotes by Kendrick Lamar
Got in the studio at sixteen, [and] that's when I felt like I wanted to make this a career. I had a passion for it.
Kendrick Lamar
There's a lot of other artists doing things outside of that depth that I enjoy - that music that I can actually have fun to, and not be in depth and think about, then I appreciate that.
Kendrick Lamar
Being able to tell one from start to finish, and making that puzzle come together at the end. That's the art for me.
Kendrick Lamar
God to me is love. It's the ruler of all things, whether it's with a person or with music or with your TV. I feel like it's this energy. God is energy, love is energy.
Kendrick Lamar
We all, we all good people just trying to escape the negative influence that come around us and that's the story of my life, you know? Trying my best to get around the ills and I bumped my head a few times but I think, you know, music is my savior for right now, for me and my whole group.
Kendrick Lamar
You can't change where you from. You can't take a person out of their zone and expect them to be somebody else now that they in the record industry. It's gonna take years. Years of travelling. Years of meeting people. Years of seeing the world.
Kendrick Lamar
When I go into the studio - it [words] has to sound the way I heard it in my head. So that's probably one of the biggest things that separates me when I'm working in the studio - just how I hear certain things.
Kendrick Lamar
I can be calm and reflective from time to time and other times I can have a burst of energy, that's just me.
Kendrick Lamar
Life Will Put Many Red Lights In Front Of You, But Sometimes We Must Push On The Gas And Trust God
Kendrick Lamar
If I'm gonna tell a real story, I'm gonna start with my name.
Kendrick Lamar
The best thing is to always keep honest people around, because when you have a bunch of yes men around that know that you're making a mistake but let you go on with it, that's when it ruins your mind state as an artist.
Kendrick Lamar
The sky is falling, the wind is calling Stand for something, or die in the morning
Kendrick Lamar
Hip-hop is not the problem, our reality is the problem.
Kendrick Lamar
My rights, my wrongs, I write ‘til I’m right with God.
Kendrick Lamar
I think my worst problem is actually living in the moment and understanding everything that's going on. I feel like I'm in my own bubble.
Kendrick Lamar
Brother Kendrick Lamar: he's not a rapper, he's a writer, he's an author. And if you read between the lines, we'll learn how to love one another. But you can't do that, I said you can't do that, without loving yourself first.
Kendrick Lamar
Am I the only one who measures time using songs? “Oh it only took me 4 songs to get here! that’s not to long!
Kendrick Lamar
No matter how much good things are going on around you, you still have them little negative things that just wanna come out in front. But you bottle them in because you have so many other great things, but they still there.
Kendrick Lamar
I've got an extra-specific story about Dr. Dre. I saw him when I was 9 years old in Compton - him and Tupac. They were shooting the second 'California Love' video. My pops had seen him and ran back to the house and got me, put me on his neck, and we stood there watching Dre and Pac in a Bentley.
Kendrick Lamar
It's a long time coming as far as the work that I put in. Now I know that I got the stamp but what counts is what comes behind. That's what's really important. Upholding that stamp and not only keeping the energy my way but also spreading that energy out to other artists that are coming up on the West Coast.
