Lyrics

[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar] 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

[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 and I got time (Yeah, yeah) Free your thoughts and watch them fly Use your heart and not your eyes (Mm-hmm)
