lirik lagu j cole - friday night lights
[verse 1]
i hit the weed i told myself the last time would be my last
i don’t trust my own n-gg-s now my mind racing fast
got my foot up on the gas, got a hundred on the dash
if the police run up on me i ain’t stopping for their -ss
boy you know my l’s dirty if they stop me i’m goin’ to jail surely
i’ll be next to my brother in the cell no bail for me
man let me out send me back to b-tches that smell purdy (pretty)
and all i gotta do is call once and she’ll be all ready
yeah buddy cant you tell i’m goin’ through h-ll
i don’t even open my mail
i’m in the shower with soap on the towel
i need cleansing
bad b-tches all on the prowl they need benzes
p-ssy n-gg-s running they mouth but we ain’t flinching
they names ain’t even mentioned
i got dreams bigger than your whole team
you n-gg-s so broke but yet you seem so green
i guess its envy, started with a penny now i’m getting plenty money
[hook]
one time for the city, yea
two times for you
hey
and one time for the city, hey
and two times for you
hey
[verse 2]
look here it’s raining outside boy f-ck a umbrella
n-gg-s banging outside, boy they guns dumb bell a n-gg-
tired of tellin’ n-gg-s that’s the cease rest in peace
we tired of only havin’ just a piece and f-ck police
and they killin’ n-gg-s what’s the reason?
his daughter’s starvin’ and she f-ckin’ freezes
so no wonder why he f-ckin’ squeezin’
they out here bustin’, leavin’ n-gg-s stuck and bleedin’ on the flo’
bullets wet you like a s-m-n on a ho
breathin’ slow man, i inhale
one day you tryna make the rent
the next day you in jail
lord knows he meant well
so i take the pencil and right like a pen pal
so sh-t that’s darker than the tints up on the windshield
welcome to sin-ville, where n-gg-s on base sh-t
it’s lookin’ like an infield, high as a sprint bill
what you think? that’s reason why this ink in my pen kills
phony n-gg-s ’til they are extinct b-tch i been real
[hook]
one time for the city, yea
two times for you
hey
and one time for the city, hey
and two times for you
hey
[verse 3]
the more n-gg-s sayin’
cole the wrong one bringin’ the city shine
all he ever doin’ is paintin’ pictures of crime
tellin’ stories of pain, paintin’ pictures of dope
b-tch if you listen i’m paintin’ pictures of hope
that boy in cl-ss embarr-ssed because he broke
hopin’ the day he won’t be the b-tt of somebody’s jokes
see me; i lived it all from dirt-poorin’ and trailer
worried about my mother and never trustin’ my neighbors
to middle-cl-ss with a backyard and my own room
to bein’ the only black kid in my homeroom
academically gifted and followed my own rules
was runnin’ the streets hey ma i’ll be home soon
was out chasin’ ho’s, was out hoopin’
them n-gg-s wasn’t ballin’ but yet they was foul shootin’
so meet the newest role model who don’t know how to fake this sh-t
never sold a rock and look i made it b-tch
[hook]
one time for the city, yea
two times for you
hey
and one time for the city, hey
and two times for you
hey
[outro]
girl it’s been so long, i’ve been gone from you
but you ain’t gotta worry ’bout the thangs i do
it’s hard but the thought of you would ease my pain
girl i promise they gon’ know our name
ain’t seen you smile in awhile
but i been dreamin’ ’bout you
