"God" (stylized as "GOD.") is a song by American rapper Kendrick Lamar, from his fourth studio album Damn, released on April 14, 2017. The thirteenth and penultimate track on the album (second on the Collector's Edition of Damn[1]), the song was produced by Riera, Sounwave, DJ Dahi, Bëkon, Cardo, Tiffith, with additional production by Yung Exclusive, Mike Hector and Teddy Walton.

The song details Lamar's successes, how it feels, and why he works so hard to get to where he is today.[2] The song also finds Lamar declaring his faux-divinity as a rap god.[3]

Background

Before the release of Damn, the album itself was rumored to be centered around God.[4] It was soon confirmed by Lamar himself.[5] Lamar has been a devout Christian since approximately his late teen years or adolescence.[6][7]

Lyrics

According to Jake Woolf of GQ magazine, Lamar trolls Canadian musician and rapper Drake by imitating his singing voice on the song's chorus.[6]
