Song lyrics

I remembered you was conflicted,
Misusing your influence, sometimes I did the same.

If these walls could talk... [×6]
Sex!

[Anna Wise:]
She just want to close her eyes and sway
With you, with you, with you.
Exercise her right to work it out,
It's true, it's true, it's true.
Shout out to the birthday girls, say ‘hey!', say ‘hey!'
Everyone deserves a night to play,
And she plays only when you tell her ‘no'.

[Chorus: Anna Wise, Thundercat & Bilal]
If these walls could talk...
I can feel your reign when it cries, gold lives inside of you.
If these walls could talk...
I love it when I'm in it, I love it when I'm in it.

[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar]
If these walls could talk, they'd tell me to swim good,
No boat, I float better than he would.
No life jacket, I'm not the God of Nazareth,
But your flood can be misunderstood.
Walls tellin' me they full of pain, resentment,
Need someone to live in them just to relieve tension.
Me? I'm just a tenant.
Landlord said these walls vacant more than a minute.
These walls are vulnerable, exclamation,
Interior pink, color coordinated.
I interrogated every nook and cranny,
I mean, it's still amazing before they couldn't stand me.
These walls wanna cry tears,
These walls happier when I'm here,
These walls never could hold up,
Every time I come around demolition might crush!

[Chorus: Anna Wise, Thundercat & Bilal]
If these walls could talk...
I can feel your reign when it cries, gold lives inside of you.
If these walls could talk...
I love it when I'm in it, I love it when I'm in it.

[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
If these walls could talk, they'd tell me to go deep,
Yellin' at me continuously, I can see.
Your defense mechanism is my decision,
Knock these walls down, that's my religion.
Walls feelin' like they ready to close in,
I suffocate, then catch my second wind.
I resonate in these walls,
I don't know how long I can wait in these walls.
I've been on these streets too long,
Lookin' at you from the outside in,
They sing the same old song
About how they walls always the cleanest.
I beg to differ, I must've missed them,
I'm not involved, I'd rather diss them,
I'd rather call on you, put your wall up,
‘Cause when I come around, demolition gon' crush!

[Chorus: Anna Wise, Thundercat & Bilal]
If these walls could talk...
I can feel your reign when it cries, gold lives inside of you.
If these walls could talk...
I love it when I'm in it, I love it when I'm in it.

[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
If your walls could talk, they'd tell you it's too late,
Your destiny accepted your fate.
Burn accessories and stash them where they are,
Take the recipe, the Bible and God.
Wall tellin' you that commissary is low,
Race wars happenin', no callin' C.O.
No callin' your mother to save you,
Homies to say you are reputable, not acceptable,
Your behavior is Sammy the Bull like –
A killer that turned snitch –
Walls is tellin' me you a bitch.
You pray for appeals, hopin' the warden would afford them,
That sentence so important.
Walls tellin' you to listen to ‘Sing About Me',
Retaliation is strong, you even dream 'bout me,
Killed my homeboy, and God spared your life,
Dumb criminal got indicted same night.
So when you play this song, rewind the first verse
About me abusin' my power so you can hurt,
About me and her in the shower, whenever she horny,
About me and her in the after hours of the morning,
About her baby daddy currently servin' life,
And how she think about you until we meet up at night,
About the only girl that cared about you when you asked her,
And how she fuckin' on a famous rapper.
Walls could talk.

I remembered you was conflicted,
Misusing your influence, sometimes I did the same.
Abusing my power full of resentment,
Resentment that turned into a deep depression.
Found myself screamin' in the hotel room...
