[Verse 1]
I got so many theories and suspicions
I'm diagnosed with real people conditions
Today is the day I follow my intuition
Keep the family close, get money, and fuck bitches
I double park the Aston in the red
My momma told me that I'ma work myself to death
My girl told me don't let these hoes get in your head
My world been ecstatic, I checked the signal that read
[Chorus]
Buzzin', radars is buzzin'
Yah, yah, yah, yah
Yah, yah, yah, yah, mmm
If I gotta slap a pussy ass, I'ma make it look sexy
If I gotta go hard on a bitch, I'ma make it look sexy
Like pull up, hop out, air out, made it look sexy
They won't take me out my element
No, take me out my element
[Verse 2]
Interviews wanna know my thoughts and opinions
Fox News wanna use my name for percentage
My latest muse is my niece, she worth living
See me on the TV and scream: "That's Uncle Kendrick!"
But it's money to get, bitches to hit (Yah)
Zeroes to flip, temptation is (Yah)
First on my list, I can't resist (Yah)
Everyone together now, know that we forever
[Chorus]
Buzzin', radars is buzzin'
Yah, yah, yah, yah
Yah, yah, yah, yah, mmm
If I gotta slap a pussy ass, I'ma make it look sexy
If I gotta go hard on a bitch, I'ma make it look sexy
Like pull up, hop out, air out, made it look sexy
They won't take me out my element
No, take me out my element
[Outro]
I'm going to make it look
I'ma make it look sexy, mmm
And they won't take me out my element

I was sitting in my living room with my best friend and I was showing her this new synth keyboard thing I’d bought in Brighton that weekend. I just sat there and sang her famous songs while messing around on these keys – when we got to Kendrick sh...
