i n t e r l u d e (Explicit) - J. Cole

Lyrics by：J. Cole

Composed by：J. Cole

I'm a livin' little good thing

It's like you never lived for me

Mama said you was a good thing uh

Good good good

Yeah

We came a long way man we done came a long way

And we sittin' on top of this s**t

This s**t can go one or two ways

This s**t can go up it can go down

Either way n***a I'm prepared

Feel me

Yeah

I be comin' in peace but f**k me

Best beware of the others

This s**t deep undercovers creep

This Southern heat make unbearable summers

Just last week seen your mama weep

Crying 'cause she don't wan' bury your brother

The blood leaks while the EMTs

Gotta carry her baby like surrogate mothers

Woah thank God we survived around where the terrorists hovered

Though traumatized wouldn't trade it for nothin'

Through hard times it was there I discovered a hustle

And makin' the best out the struggle

I kept grindin' 'til this day up a level

Respect mine gotta stay out of trouble

'Cause TEC-9's like the AR rebuttals

Cole World n***as knowin' what it is

Just in case they don't I show 'em what it is

Then in summer I do real numbers

Couldn't dare touch it if they sold the double disc

Block hot n***as burnin' up the street

Shots poppin' and we heard it up the street

It's a war n***as runnin' up the score

Jesus said that you should turn the other cheek

Voiceless n***as gettin' murdered every week

Dead bodies smell the odor in the street

My homie' homie got out on parole

He sold more Coca-Cola than the soda industry

Summertime bring the coldest winter breeze

Hella blues like the Rollin' 60's

Christ went to Heaven aged thirty-three

And so did Pimp C and so did Nipsey

I told you I told you

This s**t can go up it can go down I don't give a f**k

N***a I done seen the highest heights

I done seen it twice

And I've seen them lowest of the lows

And still I rose

Now I'm at your neck n***a yeah
