J. Cole - Snow On Tha Bluff (en) Lyrics
by RentAnAdviser.com
Niggas be thinkin' I'm deep, intelligent,
fooled by my college degree
My IQ is average, there's
a young lady out there, she
way smarter than me
I scrolled through her timeline
in these wild times,
and I started to read
She mad at these crackers, she
mad at these capitalists,
mad at these murder police
She mad at my niggas, she mad
at our ignorance, she wear
her heart on her sleeve
She mad at the celebrities, lowkey I
be thinkin' she talkin' 'bout me
Now I ain't no dummy to think
I'm above criticism
So when I see something
that's valid, I listen
But shit, it's something about the
queen tone that's botherin' me
She strike me as somebody blessed
enough to grow up in
conscious environment
With parents that know 'bout the
struggle for liberation and
in turn they provide her with
A perspective and awareness
of the system and unfairness
that afflicts 'em
And the clearest understandin' of
what we gotta do to get free
And the frustration that fills her
words seems to come from the fact
that most people don't see
Just 'cause you woke and I'm not,
that shit ain't no reason to
talk like you better than me
How you gon' lead, when you attackin'
the very same niggas that really
do need the shit that you sayin'?
Instead of conveyin' you holier,
come help us get up to speed
Shit, it's a reason it took like
two hundred years for our
ancestors just to get freed
These shackles be lockin' the mental
way more than the physical
I look at freedom like trees, can't
grow a forest like overnight
Hit the ghetto and slowly start
plantin' your seeds
Fuck is the point of you preaching
your message to those that already
believe what you believe?
I'm on some "Fuck a retweet,
" most people is sheep
You got all the answers but
how you gon' reach?
If I could make one more
suggestion respectfully
I would say it's more effective
to treat people like children
Understandin' the time and love and
patience that's needed to grow
This change is inevitable, but ain't
none of us seen this before
Therefore, we just gotta learn
everything as we go
I struggle with thoughts on the daily
Feel like a slave that somehow
done saved enough coins to buy
his way up outta slavery
Thinkin' just maybe, in my pursuit
to make life so much better
for me and my babies
I done betrayed the very same
people that look at me like
I'm some kind of a hero
Because of the zeros that's
next to the commas
But look here, I promise
I'm not who you think
Ran into this nigga outside
of the store yesterday
He said something that
had me like, "Wait"
He was like, "Cole, 'preciate
what you been doin',
my nigga, that's real"
But damn, why I feel faker
than Snow on tha Bluff?
Well, maybe 'cause deep down
I know I ain't doin' enough
Can you walk with me?
I hope we'll find the reason why
we often sob, go on, cry
Painful memories fuck up the vibe
Though I be tryin' to let
the time heal my mind
I was once a child, I've gotten older
Still, I know I'm just
a boy in God's eyes
Fill me up with wisdom
and some courage
Plus endurance to survive,
help mine thrive
Please support me on PATREON Thank you!
