J. COLE - It Won't Be Long lyrics
rate meUh, yeah
Hey!
I said it won't be long, no (Aye, yeah)
'Fore we out here baby
Gotta get you up out here baby (Hey, hey)
Said it won't be long, no (Yeah yeah yeah, hey hey)
'Fore we out here baby (Baby)
We up out here baby (Aye hey)
I say a prayer then look up in the sky, thank God
Even though a nigga headed to this tired day job
Will my eyes stay wide, still I know I'm gon' blow
This is music for my niggas cause I know you want more
Cause that old shit fake but this new shit real
J. Cole not Jay, witness that Blueprint feel
Hey Cole is you crazy that's some big boots to fill
Yeah straight out the Ville and the shoes fit well
Same heaven same hell, same niggas get killed
Knew every detail still never would tell
Scared of the repercussion, scared of them people bussin
Bullets be hittin' niggas you swear they could be percussion
Niggas be holding triggers before they could read instructions
Oh God, never did our fathers teach us nothing
No lord, but became a man on my own
Showed my momma I could stand on my own
I said it won't be long, no (Hey hey hey hey)
'Fore we out here baby (Hey hey)
Gotta get you up out here baby (Hey hey)
Said it won't be long, no (Hey hey hey hey)
'Fore we out here baby (Hey hey)
We up out here baby (Hey hey!)
Dear mama, your son hurting
Living in this cold World where niggas shun virgins
And praise hoes, as days go by shawty 19 years old
No clothes for her baby yet she stay so fly
Tell me why mamma do you cry
Is it cause you know my teacher be feeding me lies
Is it cause you know that Preacher is greedy inside
Or cause racism is alive, I see the disguise
Mamma I know it hurts
It hurts me to watch you go to work barely hanging on
Some rich man getting richer while you slaving for him
So what's the options for him
A young nigga from the hood without a pops at home
Surrounded by no good and soon no good becomes so good quick
A little drug money got him feeling so hood rich
Killing your hood with the same shit Ronald Reagon filled up your hood with
And it's still in your hood shit
I'm feeling no good mamma I'm sick of my soul
Is there a better life for us I just sit and I hope
I just hope and I pray it'll change one day
I'll make a change one way and mamma I can fly you out this cold World
This cold life, it's all wrong, there's no right
It's hard to see the good when there's no light
Just grrab onto me, trust me hold tight!
I said it won't be long, no (Hey hey hey hey)
'Fore we out here baby (Hey hey)
Gotta get you up out here baby (Hey hey)
Said it won't be long, no (Hey hey hey hey)
'Fore we out here baby (Hey hey)
We up out here baby (Hey hey!)
Said it won't be long, no (Hey hey hey hey)
'Fore we out here baby (Hey hey)
Gotta get you up out here baby (Hey hey)
Said it won't be long, no (Hey hey hey hey)
'Fore we out here baby (Hey hey)
We up out here baby (Hey hey!)
Hey! (Hey hey hey)
'Fore we out here baby (Hey hey hey)
Gotta get you up out here baby (Heyhey hey)
Said it won't be long, no (Hey hey hey)
We out here baby (Hey hey!)
We up out here baby (Hey hey!)
