Lyrics...

[Verse 1: j. cole]

Look, I just she'd tears homie and now I ain't to proud to admit it

Just seen my father for the first time in a minute

And when I say a minute I mean years man

Damn, a whale could have swam in them tears fam

Cause as I left him I reflected on my younger days

When it was just me and my brother and my mother played

Father, cause no other man bothered

Not even my biological, it never seemed logical

But I accepted it cause I ain't know no better

Thought I was brighter than a polo sweater

No pops was like martin with no coretta

So many things you could have told me

And saved me the trouble or lettin' my mistakes show me

I feel like you barely know me

And that's a shame cause our last name is the same

That blood type flowin' through our veins is the same

My mama left you and it may be that anger's to blame

But that's no excuse, only you and god know the truth

And why you only gone monthly, barely ever saw me

Spend some summer's with you and played with my cousin maury

Maybe I should be tellin' you fuck you cause you selfish

But I want a father so bad, I can't help it

I break down, I break down

Can't help but break down

[Verse 2: j. cole]

I never thought I'd see my mama on that shit man

It's fuckin' with her body, now she sick damn

I wanted a big house with a white picket fence and a pool

Who would have ever thought that it would come to this, man?

Quicksand is what this life feel like

That shit these rappers kick is nothin' like real life

You made a milli off of servin' hard white? yeah right

My mama tell you what addicted to that pipe feel like

Stupid niggas, ain't heard tha cops is shootin' niggas?

I swear to god, wish I could bullet proof my niggas

Can't get no jobs, but they still recruitin' niggas

We tryna stand tall when it gets to crucial niggas

Break down! we break down...

[Verse 3: j. cole]

Servin' time, lie down

And she don't want nobody to know, it started 25 pounds

By the time he get out, she gonna be 4

Now will his girl stay down?

Ain't no doubt, yeah she love him fo sho

But temptation stays round

And if she strayed, how could he ever know?

And so, she goes to the club on the weekend

A little freakin', but them niggas holla

But she never speakin', but tonight I see the devil creepin'

Cause she been lonely, she ain't felt a man in 7 seasons

Damn! she do the best that she can

Her mama tellin' her to find another man

She college educated with a felon boyfriend

That's what she thinkin' tonight

Maybe she's right, but please

Stay down mama! gotta be strong, don't break down mama!

Please...

Not sure how I overlooked this song when this album first came out. Maybe I had a different type of energy and mindset at the time but now listening to it, and reflecting each verse takes me down memory lane Had me on the verge of tears

J. Cole is the chosen one, I have yet to hear meaningful tracks this powerful from another artist of our generation.
