J. Cole – Serenade lyrics

[Verse 1]
Whoever thought a Carolina nigga would've been the greatest
We strong cause the hard times made us into men
Hold up I gotta say that shit again
I said the hard times made us into men
See a man gonna stand with the world as a weight
But the boy gonna break, only so much he could take
See I traveled outta state and I ain't know a soul
Told my momma I'd be back when I had a million sold
Million flows million stories I done told
Shed tears when they cut me from the team couldn't wait till next year
Then I told the best player look
"Though I ain't as tall as y'all niggas
Next year I'mma be better then all ya'll niggas"
Ay this is for the Ville shout to all ya'll niggas
I pray you never pass like them ballhog niggas
And at all cost nigga I'mma shine
They gon' remember my name like it's tatted on they mind
J. Cole J. Cole
Ay, fresher than a day old newborn, bitches blowing kisses
That's the same ho that you on
I knew her back in high-school, but heard she failed college
She blew me like she blew her nail polish
That's knowledge if I ever seen it
Say I'mma call her, but don't ever mean it
See I'm preoccupied, watch how my stock arise
She want the time and that's just something I cannot provide
Cause time is money and I, I ain't no dummy and I
I'm trying get paid, man I gotta stay brave Atlanta
I let your misses sip me, I ain't talking David Banner, ain't a planner
So if it's random then it's naturally
Name a motherfucker out here matching me

[Outro]
Nigga I'm feeling good, nigga I'm feeling good
Nigga I'm feeling good, nigga I'm feeling good
Nigga I'm feeling good
