"Ain't nobody praying for me."
I've been struggling to come up with something profound to say about this song, which begins and ends with the line quoted above. After a few failed attempts at profundity, the most important thought to leave you with is that it's the best song on an album that is a masterpiece. It's really best to just listen, drink it all in, and think about what he is saying, and how he is saying it.
The one semi-cogent thought to leave you with is that, during the course of the song's 3:34 running time, Lamar achieves a level of intensity that represents the very best of what music can offer.
