Cloud nine Kendrick Lamar

Uh

I take a sip of Hennessy
浅酌一杯轩尼诗
And then get pissy drunk
便醉意朦胧
I ain't a drinker I'm a thinker

Call it what you want
随你如何评说
But if you turn your back
但若你转身离去
Know that you just missed your chance
便错失良机
To witness the realest

Embarrassed so I started questioning God
