Sing About Me I’m Dying of Thirst

This 12 minute track is by far one of Kendrick’s most beloved. Each stanza tells its own story about the effects of fame. The first tells the story of Kendrick’s friend who was gunned down in Compton and how his story helps him be remembered. The second is about another one of Kendrick’s late friends, and the family this time around would rather not have their daughters death publicized. The last stanza is Kendrick’s take on the whole thing and how he believes he should be able to tell these stories for others to understand. It is a very long song, but definitely worth listening to.
