Clinic Confessions
Kendrick Lamar

Verse 1:
She stands behind the counter, in that sterile white coat
Counting dollars from the devil, every bill a sinking boat
Vacations in the islands, luxury and sun
Financed by the darkness, a web she’s slowly spun

Pre-Chorus:
Oxen pics and menopause meds, her soul trapped in a bind
She dreams of clear blue oceans, but it's crack she's leaving behind

Chorus:
Clinic confessions, secrets in the night
She sells redemption, loses sleep to the fight
Lives split in two worlds, truth she can’t disguise
In her clinic confessions, tear-drenched lullabies

Verse 2:
Whispers in the hallways, silence keeps her sane
Customers come in shadows, fueling her airplane
Her body craves the comfort, menopausal ache
As she dialogues with demons, for serenity’s sake

Pre-Chorus:
Oxen pics and menopause meds, desperation clearly signed
She dreams of sandy beaches, but there's torment in her mind

Chorus:
Clinic confessions, secrets in the night
She sells redemption, loses sleep to the fight
Lives split in two worlds, truth she can’t disguise
In her clinic confessions, tear-drenched lullabies

Bridge:
Glimmers of salvation drown in tears she hides
Pictures of oxen staring, judgment in their eyes
Menopause grips tighter, as she peddles her deceit
She’s caught between her two lives, both lives bittersweet

Chorus:
Clinic confessions, secrets in the night
She sells redemption, loses sleep to the fight
Lives split in two worlds, truth she can’t disguise
In her clinic confessions, tear-drenched lullabies

Outro:
In her lonely clinic, under fluorescent lights
She counts the cost of freedom, and mourns her lost nights
Oxen pics and medications, the life she contrives
But in her heart, there’s longing, for truth in weary eyes
Clinic confessions, her soul in disguise.
