TV Off Kendrick Lamar Lefty Gunplay lyrics - English Translation

[Parte I] [Intro: Kendrick Lamar] Todo lo que siempre quise fue un Grand National negro Al diablo con ser racional, dales lo que piden [Coro: Kendrick Lamar] No es suficiente (Ayy) Quedan pocos hermanos sólidos, pero no es suficiente Pocas mujeres que realmente den el paso, pero no es suficiente Dices que eres más grande que yo, pero no es suficiente (Huh) Les caigo encima, sí, alguien tiene que hacerlo Los haré enojar, sí, alguien tiene que hacerlo Tomaré el pase G, mierda, mira cómo lo hago Huh, sobrevivimos afuera, todo gracias a la música, ¿qué? [Verso 1: Kendrick Lamar] Dicen: '¿Qué onda con él?' Es el alfa y omega, perra, bienvenida a casa Esto no es una canción Es una revelación, cómo hacer que un hermano desaparezca Necesitas un hombre, nena, no entiendo, nena Paga tus cuentas y hazte sentir protegida como yo puedo, nena Te enseño algo si necesitas corrección, ese es el plan, nena No pongas tu vida en manos de estos tipos raros, nena (Woah) [Coro: Kendrick Lamar] No es suficiente (Ayy) Quedan pocos hermanos sólidos, pero no es suficiente Pocas mujeres que realmente den el paso, pero no es suficiente Dices que eres más grande que yo, pero no es suficiente (Huh) Les caigo encima, sí, alguien tiene que hacerlo Los haré enojar, sí, alguien tiene que hacerlo Tomaré el pase G, mierda, mira cómo lo hago Huh, sobrevivimos afuera, todo gracias a la música, ¿qué? [Verso 2: Kendrick Lamar] Hey, apaga su televisor ¿No estás con mis actividades? Entonces no te metas Hey, qué, huh, ¿cuántos debo enviar? Envíalos todos Toma un riesgo o un viaje, sabes que viajo por mi perro ¿Con quién estás? Unos sargentos y tenientes para la revancha Esta revolución ha sido televisada, caí con las chucherías Hey, hermano joven, sube tu nivel, sí, lo digo en serio Hey, apaga si actúan mal, sí, yo lo hice Hey, ¿qué pasa, eh? Odio una perra que odia a otra perra y las dos son zorras Odio un tipo que odia a otros tipos y ambos están quebrados Si no vienes por nada, ¿para qué vienes? El tipo se siente con derecho porque me conoce desde niño Perra, corté a mi abuela si no ve las cosas como yo, hm Tiene mucha boca pero le faltan ideas grandes Mándalo a la luna, así es como me siento, gritando [Coro: Kendrick Lamar] No es suficiente (Ayy) Quedan pocos hermanos sólidos, pero no es suficiente Pocas mujeres que realmente den el paso, pero no es suficiente Dices que eres más grande que yo, pero no es suficiente [Parte II] [Intro: Kendrick Lamar] Huh Huh, huh Hey Hey (Mustard en el beat, ho) [Coro: Kendrick Lamar] Mustard Los tipos actúan mal, pero alguien tiene que hacerlo Tengo el pie en el acelerador, pero alguien tiene que hacerlo Huh, apaga su televisor, apaga su televisor Huh, apaga su televisor, apaga su televisor Huh, apaga su televisor, apaga su televisor Huh, apaga su televisor, apaga su televisor [Verso: Kendrick Lamar] No hay otro rey en esto del rap, son hermanos Nada más que mis hijos, un disparo, desaparecen Estoy en la ciudad donde la bandera se lanza como interferencia de pase Candado alrededor del edificio Choque, llegando en camioneta sin marcar para jugar a las congeladas Con un hueso que picar como si fuera lubina Así que cuando salí, hice como 50K de un show Intentando enseñar a los hermanos antes de que cuelguen de una soga Soy profético, solo hablan de cómo lo consigo Solo sirven para salvar las apariencias, vi los cosméticos ¿Cuántas cabezas tengo que tomar para nivelar mi estética? Date prisa y ponte fuerte, salimos de lo pliométrico El tipo se quedó sin suerte tan pronto como subí el estándar La ciudad lo hizo dulce, podrías morir, lo apuesto Sus bocas se llenan de engaño, que los cobardes lo cuenten Camino en Nueva Orleans con la etiqueta de LA, gritando [Coro: Kendrick Lamar] Mustard (Ah, hombre) Los tipos actúan mal, pero alguien tiene que hacerlo Tengo el pie en el acelerador, pero alguien tiene que hacerlo Huh, apaga su televisor, apaga su televisor Huh, apaga su televisor, apaga su televisor Huh, apaga su televisor, apaga su televisor Huh, apaga su televisor, apaga su televisor [Outro: Lefty Gunplay] La cosa se pone loca, espeluznante, escalofriante, hilarante Loca, espeluznante, escalofriante, hilarante La cosa se pone loca, espeluznante, escalofriante, hilarante Loca, espeluznante, escalofriante, hilarante La cosa se pone loca, espeluznante, escalofriante, hilarante Loca, espeluznante, escalofriante, hilarante La cosa se pone loca, espeluznante, escalofriante, hilarante Loca, espeluznante, escalofriante, hilarante

Meaning of TV Off Kendrick Lamar Lefty Gunplay lyrics

Kendrick Lamar and Lefty Gunplay's 'TV Off' is a raw commentary on authenticity, survival, and the harsh realities of street life. The song's central metaphor of turning off the TV symbolizes rejecting mainstream narratives and manufactured realities. Kendrick positions himself as both prophet and protector, delivering hard truths through his signature blend of street wisdom and social consciousness. The recurring theme of 'it's not enough' speaks to the insufficiency of surface-level success without real change. Kendrick critiques fake loyalty ('niggas hatin' on them niggas and they both broke') while asserting his dominance in rap ('Ain't no other king in this rap thing'). The lyrics weave between personal protection ('Pay your bill and make you feel protected') and broader social revolution ('This revolution been televised'). Musical elements like Mustard's aggressive beat mirror the lyrical intensity, creating a sense of urgency. The outro by Lefty Gunplay encapsulates the chaotic duality of street life - simultaneously 'crazy, scary, spooky, hilarious.' This resonates with listeners because it doesn't romanticize struggle but presents it with unflinching honesty. The song's deeper layer suggests that true power comes from seeing beyond the 'TV' version of reality - whether that's media portrayals, social media facades, or industry politics. Kendrick's prophetic claims ('I'm prophetic') position him as a truth-teller in an era of deception, making this track particularly relevant in today's climate of misinformation.
