"Radioactive (Remix)" lyrics
"Radioactive (Remix)"
(feat. Kendrick Lamar)
I'm waking up to ash and dust
I wipe my brow and I sweat my rust
I'm breathing in the chemicals
I'm breaking in, shaping up
Then checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse, whoa
I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, whoa, I'm radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa, I'm radioactive, radioactive
I raise my flags, dye my clothes
It's a revolution, I suppose
We're painted red to fit right in
I'm breaking in, shaping up
Then checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse, whoa
I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, whoa, I'm radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa, I'm radioactive, radioactive
All systems go
Sun hasn't died
Deep in my bones
Straight from inside
[Kendrick Lamar:]
Bury me alive, bury me with pride
Bury me with berries, that forbidden fruit and cherry wine
Thank you berry much, but tonight's my night and I'm Barry Bonds
Swingin' for the fences, barbaric Kendrick in idle time
Everything in life subject to change, change whip, change grind
Change clothes, change opinions right before I change my mind
I don't really know your business
Been in there since I was bendin' Lego blocks
Now you tell the world about me, dry snitch
Tater tots on my shotgun, now I gotta pop one at the stars
Sky's the limit, I gotta finish as the first rapper on Mars
Mark my word, I'm a make my mark,
Even when they start their martial Law
Even when these Martians alienate,
My mental state is still at heart
Fuck, look in my eyes,
Tell me I died,
Tell me I tried
To compromise
Tell me you love me,
Tell me that I don't give a fuck and can barely decide
Wishin' good luck on my enemies,
All of my energy go to the almighty God
I could drown in a bottle of Hennessy,
Fuck your amenities,
I'm gettin' better with time
I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, whoa, I'm radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa, I'm radioactive, radioactive
I'm radioactive, radioactiveâź“
