2KBABY – “Lazy Song (remix)” [Lyrics, Video]

2KBABY premieres the visual for the remixed “Lazy Song” piece. Read the lyrics to the song.

2kbaby Lazy Song (remix)

It’s beginning to look like a new hip-hop trend is gathering steam, in which beloved pop songs are given a bit of refurbishing. We’ve previously seen it with the infamous “Who I Smoke,” which added a blood-spattered coat of paint to Vanessa Carlton’s “A Thousand Miles.” Now, 2KBABY has come through with a new rendition of Bruno Mars’ “The Lazy Song,” offering up a laid-back and melodic drop for his fans.

“Nowadays n***as clique up with any gang,” he sings, borrowing Bruno’s classic melody. “I just want to see them all dead / I’m too high can’t pick up my phone, this new opp pack smoke way too strong.” As tends to be the case on tracks like this, the juxtaposition is really the driving factor; who doesn’t appreciate a bit of casual violence over an uplifting and innocent backdrop? One has to wonder if we’re looking at the new movement taking shape before our very eyes.

Lyrics

[Chorus]
Nowadays niggas click up with any gang, woah
I just wanna see ’em all dead, yeah
I’m too high, can’t pick up my phone
This new opp pack smoke way too strong
Stop asking me, I’m not squashing anything
Nothing at all

[Verse]
It’s crazy how ​these niggas think they followin’ the leader
Be all up on a rapper’s dick, y’all followin’ an eater
I’m sick of all the bitchin’ shit, these niggas act like divas
A snitch, you should get rid of it, don’t get these niggas T’d up
But they only got you when they need ya, uh
Thought his baby mama was a keeper, deceiver
These niggas suckin’ dick for some features
They be tryna get this shit lil’ cheaper, lil’ cheaper

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh-oh, yes, I said it
I said it, I said it, ’cause I can

[Chorus]
Nowadays niggas click up with any gang, woah
I just wanna see ’em all dead, yeah
I’m too high, can’t pick up my phone
This new opp pack smoke way too strong
Stop asking me, I’m not squashing anything
Nothing at all (Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, ooh)
Nothing at all (Woo-hoo), yeah (Woo-hoo), ooh (Ooh), woah
Fuck you and your dawg, ah

[Outro]
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, ooh
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, ooh
