    The track starts with a vocoder aided Lady Gaga chorus that vaguely describes overcoming a challenge where time is the enemy. A beautiful piano melody goes along with it. Kendrick calmly starts his verse with Tell My Mama Its Bad Karma I Just Killed A Man, Tell Your Auntie She Has To Pardon Me Because I Had A Hand (A snippet with this surfaced a few weeks ago under "Hood Politics 2"). After that, BOOM - the beat change takes you back to Backstreet Freestyle. The first verse talks about how he's going to start a revolution and lead everyone into peace through his music. There is a Kendrick hook, and then we transition back to the calming state of Gaga's chorus. A longer verse 2 starts, and he proclaims - "This Is For The Hatred In You, This Is For The Place Of Darkness That They Had Placed Into You". His second verse follows with him mentioning current events and how he's going to change everybody's state of mind. After a final Gaga bridge, the beat fades away with the track. This song should've made TPAB. It completely fit the theme, and is a perfect mix of Backstreet Freestyle and Section Eighty. Kendrick's final line basically summed up the idea of the song.

    Good review.

    But these reviews without hearing the song are giving me major blue balls.

    But, I suppose you're right.
    Joining this forum and right away saying "f--- everybody here, give me an exclusive" would be the best approach.

    Good review m8. As much as I'd like to listen your exclusive track together with you, I'll just re-visit his old albums/mixtapes and hope that you share a few more lines:daps:
