This song definitely saved me in more ways than one. I am pretty successful and grateful for the life I live now every so often I come back to listen to this song to see how far I have come. If you’re reading this and going through some shit.....it will get better
It’s crazy coming back to this song 12 years later and reflecting on each time I would put it on when I was going thru something. Keeping a strong mindset helped me get thru all the dark times and I’m grateful and proud of where I’m at now
This song is the creamiest of all J Cole's songs for me.... I discovered it 7 years ago back when I was in my mid collage years going through a lot of shit, experiencing the impacts of my parents' divorce at the same at the time... It gave me hope and strength to focus and finish my degree. Thankfully I finished my degree but still life hasn't turned out the way I planned it, 5 years later after college still haven't landed my first job for the profession i studied just stuck on a dead-end general job that isn't in line with my profession I studied. Early this morning i just got robbed of my phone and some cash on my way to work. But here I am back listening to this song because it always gives me hope to keep on fighting on matter how bad and dark things are in my life.
I’m going thru the toughest lesson in my life right now, so I also came back here for guidance. I’m glad I’m not the only one that’s seeks j.cole’s old music therapeutic. God bless everyone.
@@samLositoask Jesus for help, I remember losing somone in my life and the colours seemed like they left the world and I thought I'd never be happy again but I was, it just took time, thanks to God.
Cole is no doubt in my mind the best rapper, producer and writer. I love when i discover his tracks. His music is so consistent, he rhymes his stories and poetically describes a story that everyone can relate to.
It’s a trip, been listening to this man’s music since I was 12 and now I’m 28 still anticipating more albums from him. I knew he was my favorite rapper but I never thought he’d be one of the goats. Im so happy to see I was wrong🙏🏽
I thank JCole for all the help and motivation he gives me. His lyrics still impact my life in such a positive way, just like everyone I've been thru a lot and truly his music has helped me get through countless moments. Thanks Cole
Reminiscing the time I listened to this for the first time, I was going through a phase as a man. J Cole has always been someone I have looked up to. I appreciate the greatness, Master!
Man this song is incredibly deep. It's gotten me through a lot. Great message about ambitions, dreams, and a relationship with God. THIS is real music.
Just seeing how far J.Cole has came since this song gives me chills because he was hoping for a way out and he made it very far and he put his soul into his music coming back to songs like this touches a persons soul
music has been my best friend throughout life.... one i can listen to when needed.... and now as a 21 year old tryin to stay on track n become something, what music has become confuses me, leaves me lost... Ever since I came across J COLE, i can relate... just a man tryin to make his dreams come true through hard work and reaching out to others... Fuck the money, fuck the drugs, J COLE is what i need these days
For me it was 2010. Dark, cold, snowy days. 1200 miles away from home and grinding my way through my college winter semester. Struggling. FNL and The Warm up got me through some battles.
people don't get how much of an influence he was with this mixtape.. so underrated so good. this should have like 100.000.000 views but nah people rather bump desiigner (he ok no hate) just saying.. quality over mainstream
Nah man, the last thing i want to happeb is that a lot of people are gonna start listening to the old cole music. Lets keep the real fan base small and fine
"Asking for the Lord to show me all my signs." "And so I am asking if you can hold me down Lord, be my umbrella-ella-ella in this down pour," "...that's why you never see me settle cause they want us here." #respect #jcole
Listened to this before my brother died. Was one of my top fives from J. And now it hit harder after I lost my brother. Love and respect J Cole so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾💕
Heard this song when I was in 6th grade 2010 my boy showed me j cole and said “this fools gunna be famous asfuck one day he raps about real life shit” shit still baffles me the words this man was speaking were so important that a 6th grader could visualize pain and struggle on a spiritual connection level
Lil DGabriel Not long after the money was rolling in while he didn't have to lift a finger. His first two albums I liked, the last one I really didn't.
j cole knows those true emotions... he knows how to portray them in his song... he knows his vision and he knows what he has to achieve... show him something people... sho him som love
helloblackblue i still think hes the greatest ever but something about him in this song is just beyond what ive ever heard... he is still putting out heat but this was untouchable
+Darren Peterson word this song is dope af but you cant say he fell off wen his last album was pure greatness, wet dreams is garbage but even that song is good in its own way
2019 anybody?? 😌 I’m still out here looking for inspiration. Cole I love you man 💯💪🏾 You one of my biggest role models it’s pity you don’t know it🥴🤷🏾♂️💪🏾
Seeing this man in concert at the dreamville festival was one of the greatest moments in my life frfr Jid lute mereba Cozz earth gang ti Jeezy lil it was so unbelievable it was the best time of my life Cole is an amazing performer it definitely changed my life and when they played hunger on hillside I literally cried because I was sad the festival was over
I remember hearing this for the first time, it was the first J. Cole song I ever heard been my favourite rapper since then and it's crazy how you see how much better he's gone and with every track and every project he puts out its always better than the last thing he done.
j. cole is already my favorite rapper just because he drops mixtapes better than any albums made recently. no matter how good his album is (which is should be amazing) im getting a copy just because of how much of his music i have for free he deserves the 10 dollars. too much potential here he will be a legend.
This is RAP, rap is a part of the hiphopculture. So this is both rap and hiphop, which is not practised by most people nowadays who calls themselfs "rappers". Cole world!
Back in 2011, was going through the worst of times and jamming to this sound...amazing how successful I am now...so every day before I knock off my company premises I blaze this joint in my new range rover..GOD is good 😊 and HE will see You through whatever storm 🙏🙏🙏

One of my all time favorites from Cole. He is definitely one of the realest, genuine, anointed, and best rappers of our time 🙏🏽.

Fuck the money, fuck the drugs, J COLE is what i need these days
12 years later how's life going? I'm also 21 now.
This is my favorite j cole song and it’s not even in any albums / mixtapes.
His flow and rhyme scheme is outrageous. I like how he stayed in pocket throughout the entire song. He really killed it.
Jermaine's music is always on repeat! He's my favorite artist!
I was so depressed and J Cole became my therapist, my therapy... Thank you!!!!
Top 10 cole songs of all time imo
Top 3 lowkey. Lol. 💯
@@jaazerwebster4162no very good not top3 or top 10
It should be a crime that this isn’t on itunes or spotify
For me it was 2010. Dark,
cold, snowy days. 1200 miles away from home and grinding my way through my college winter semester. Struggling. FNL and The Warm up got me through some battles.
this shows how there are few real people in this world
Billal Mabuza wow. so true.
Artist like j.cole and Kendrick saved me with their mixtape and early albums!
How could i forget about this masterpiece? Early Cole is so special, i adore this
One of the few realist rappers todae!
Dude Cole is the best ever. All of his shit has been good since the beginning
Thank God for J Cole. I needed to hear this song. 🙏🏽 I had forgot about this song and it came back just when I needed it!
This song helped me through my darkest moments when I was a troubled teenager around 2010-2013
people don't get how much of an influence he was with this mixtape.. so underrated so good. this should have like 100.000.000 views but nah people rather bump desiigner (he ok no hate) just saying.. quality over mainstream
this generation has been stupefied
it has :(
cole reminds me of the shit that pac was trying to stand for back in the 90s. not saying the music is the same, but the message
I would probably be dead without rap thank god I found j cole
Patrick Cast Tf
Its true man I would have committed suicide if I didn't have rap music in my life RAP MUSIC IS MY MOTIVATION

J. Cole is undoubtedly the greatest rapper ever. Not even unquestionably indubitably and restlessly pathetic. He's so blessed.
Show Me Somethin. It Wont Be Long. Bun B for President. Grown Simba... My fav songs from cole.
Cole needs to release a remastered version of Come Up just so the real fans can cop them as collectible
Nah man, the last thing i want to happeb is that a lot of people are gonna start listening to the old cole music. Lets keep the real fan base small and fine
