"I stood up, shut the blinds / Closed the screen, jumbotro..." (Kendrick Lamar – A.D.H.D) | rejected

nah man, he’s making sure no one is going to see them smoking crack

"Then she said, read between the lines" (Kendrick Lamar – A.D.H.D) | rejected

The ‘lines’ here are the previous crack baby comment he questioned her about- he read between the lines, and now he’s back here

"Ok then we all crack babies / Damn, why you say that? / S..." (Kendrick Lamar – A.D.H.D) | rejected

You got it all twisted up- this is the girl feeling him out to see if he’s down with smoking rock.

"My nigga trippin off that shit again / Pick him up, then ..." (Kendrick Lamar – A.D.H.D) | rejected

Putting someone in a bath full of cold water and giving them downers is what you do when they’re speeding out. Given the recurrent theme of crack in the track, we’re talking about a buddy that’s all fucked up on crack and you gotta bring him down or take him to emerg- which is a bad goddamn scene.

"Fuck that / 8 doobies to the face" (Kendrick Lamar – A.D.H.D) | rejected

You guys got it all twisted. This song is about crack addiction. 8 doobies to the face- fuck that…got a high tolerance when your age don’t exist- that’s a straight up declaration that 8 joints, a case of beer, a couple pills and a half gram just don’t cut it when you’re fiending. The ADHD is used as a metaphor for the experience of being wired- overstimulated, talking a mile a minute, etc.

"Cause now there’s kids doing grown man biz nigga" (DJ Khaled – I Wish You Would) | rejected

After 10 listens, I still hear

‘Cause now there’s kids doing grown man BIDS nigga’

Relating this to the line above, my take on this is-

Don’t get sent back to prison or your 14 year old may end up in there with you
