“Swallow the key to my cell which means I got an impossible lock to pick and if you want my spot you need to go through a lot of shit” I didn’t even peep how much this went over my head
@@hyronharrison8127 well its multi-faceted. First he says "before Kenan and Kel swallowed the key to my cell". Keenan and Kel is a sitcom. There's an episode where Kenan swallows a screw while eating tuna, so he references that. Additionaly, he's saying he swallowed the key so you have to pick the lock but it's impossible. Lastly if you "want his spot" or to unlock the cell the only way to do that is to wait till he poops the key out and find the key in a pile of shit. Hence the "you have to go through lots of shit" He's also saying he went through a "lot of shit" to get to where he's at (his spot) and if you wanna reach those same heights you'd have to go through the same challenges he went through. Kind of like a "walk a mile in my shoes" type of thing
I remember when Cole dropped this. I was THIRSTILY WAITING for this man's return, then he dropped this single & I put this on repeat like it was life support!
On god! I was itching for a Cole track 😂 I was tryna find songs from when he was younger and all types of shit lol I was just telling my girl about this
I’ve been coming back to this video for 12 years n runnin and the song is timeless. I still remember where I was the first time I heard this drop , searched it later in life found this video and it’s stayed in my playlist ever since ❤ COLEWRLD
Low-key miss this cocky style he used to have. I hope he brings it back on the fall-off based of his drop 2 months ago we might just get this Cole back.
Yeah don't get me wrong, he's definitely evolved his sound and that's not necessarily a bad thing, but his earlier projects were just different. I need more of this Cole.
I used to listen to this song nonstop when I first left my parents house and was living on my own at college. This, Cruel Summer album and Detroit mixtape will always remind me of wandering around on my own, excited to see what life I could make for myself

Glad to hear that bro! Ignore the negative talk and unhealthy thoughts, stay positive, be thankful for everything, you have a bigger purpose on your life
@@davidz2690 it can j cole love yours,I get up did the trick. These songs changed my vision about how to see life and i m damn Happy and living it now. BUT YOU KNOW ITS ALL ABOUT GOD. GOD IS EVERYTHING 💙
@@davidz2690 Cure isn't really the word I'd use. Even though my man Cole calls it that. It assist and aids in changing perspective opening awareness about life. At least it did for me 💯🔥 #ColeWorld
Remember the first time I heard this song. Gotdamn how the time flies. Was a junior in high school. Now graduated from college and still have the same effect, mind BLOWN! My point being that classics don't get old. Back when Cole really was rapping for real, and Kanye was still on his soulful shit. Miss these days!
I don't care how many times i hear them, he has so many songs and versus that blow my mind more everytime I hear them. He's a poet not a rapper. He says things I never had to go through in my life but when you really listen he can make you feel it. Truly Yourz 1 entire mixtape still unreal
First heard this song back in August of 2012 when I was gonna be an 8th grader. Now I’m a college graduate and I still bump this shit 🔥 “we didn’t come here to brag, we didn’t come here to boast. We came here to FLEX💪🏼”
Damn I still remember the summer this dropped I played it on a daily. My favorite line will forever be “no cure for the Cole , rather Cole the cure” 🔥🔥
Bro I’m on a verge of TEARS no way it’s been 10 years and I remember being literally 12 yrs old times was different but little did we know times were about to shift too
This is what made me a Cole fan
