[J. Cole - Verse 1] Strictly for the survivors The 800 number dodgers Boy, what I tell ya as bout picking up that phone When the number unknown Tell them people I aint home Half black learning white lies Niggas broke her heart now she trying white guys Too ashamed to bring around cause her homegirls’ll clown like “Girl I aint know you like ‘em bitesize” She embarrased now On edge cause she gotta meet his parents now They probably think I’m no good for ‘em Too dark, too thick, too hood for ‘em Now she sitting at the dinner table wondering what I’m doing here They got me feeling like a job interview in here They asking questions about a 5 year plan She saying “who I’m foolin’, they could never understand” They could never understand
[Amber of Dirty Projectors] Look at me I Just can’t believe What they’ve done to me We could never get free I just wanna be (I just wanna be) Look at me I Just can’t believe What they’ve done to me We could never get free I just wanna be I just wanna dream
[J. Cole - Verse 2] (f** is that smell) I smell bullshit, it must be an election year The more I listen man the more you sound less sincere Still I’m wathcing CNN tryna keep up In my interviews maybe I should speak up Tell the world how I feel like you lying all the time And keep ‘em niggas walking blind all the time But the same niggas think I’m f**ing dimes all the time Like Im walking round with money on my mind all the time And I feed into it I’d rather make tracks where I bleed into it The singles only the look to sell these niggas the book I can only pray that one day you’ll read into it If not, f** it, I got my own problems f** ya beats nigga I produce my own albums I zone out, that old sound that I’ve grown out of Was born out of being broke with hope But it don’t matter I’m on Saturn now and I won’t shatter As long as this blood grows in my bone marrow I’m gonna gather my thoughts As sharp as a bow and arrow Back when I had no dough and no apparrel My flow’s thorough, now I’m more aware of the ? a nigga face Loaded pistols with nickle plates, the nigga fake Thats why I call the shit a race Tha gony of defeat,w ish the elite could get a taste
[Chorus] Look at me I Just can’t believe What they’ve done to me We could never get free I just wanna be (I just wanna be) Look at me I Just can’t believe What they’ve done to me We could never get free I just wanna be I just wanna dream
[Amber of Dirty Projectors] We’re all together in the same boat I know you, you know me Baby, you know me We’re all together in the same boat I know you, you know me Baby, you know me We’re all together in the same boat I know you, you know me Baby, you know me I Just wanna dream I Just wanna dream I Just wanna dream Baby, you know meTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
