    PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION!
    I went online to search for an instrumental version but all the versions I found online were either loops or poor quality versions, I needed a copy of the instrumental for my upcoming album (see below for more info). Anyways so I spent a few days recreating it and slightly modifying for my personal needs and this is the end result.
    Majority of dropouts are not included like they are in the original and that is for the people that want to freestyle/write over this so they have a steady beat, however the structure and section lengths are identical to the original track.
    If you liked this please like the video and subscribe.
    Also don't be afraid to check out my Soundcloud: / trip_artist
    This beat is property of Jermaine Lamarr Cole and I take no credit for the beat itself.

    I honestly love this instrumental; it is very chill, nostalgic, and something I can vibe to. The song though is pretty depressing if you understand the lyrics behind the song.

    [Intro: J. Cole]
    Yeah (For your eyes)
    For your eyes only (For your eyes)
    For your eyes only, for your eyes only
    (For your eyes, for your eyes)
    For your eyes only
    [Verse 1: J. Cole]
    Hey, niggas be dying on the daily
    It seems my dreams faded for far too long
    The consequences deadly
    Can't visualize myself as nothing but a criminal
    Control the block, serving up rocks and stay subliminal
    'Cause young niggas is hardheaded, they letting off
    Full of adrenaline, ignorant to what death can cause
    Ain't no coming back, family dressed in black
    Plus it's hot now, the cops outside, it's hard to flip a pack
    And my daughter gotta eat, her mama be stressing me
    Like I ain't the one who put them Jays on her feet
    Like I ain't out in the field like that
    I might be low for the moment but I will bounce back
    Despite the charges, back to the wall, I fight regardless
    Screaming, "Fuck the law," my life is lawless
    That's what you call it, ain't got to be no psychic
    To see this is like the farthest thing from heaven
    This is hell and I don't mean that hyperbolic
    I try to find employment even if it's wiping toilets
    But these felonies be making life the hardest
    Resisting the temptation to run up and swipe a wallet
    Or run up on your yard, snatch your daughter bike and pawn it
    That's why I write this sonnet
    If the pressure get too much for me to take and I break
    Play this tape for my daughter and let her know my life is on it
    (For your eyes) Let her know my life is on it
    (For your eyes) For your eyes only
    [Hook: J. Cole]
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes only
    [Verse 2: J. Cole]
    You probably grown now so this song'll hit you
    If you hearing this, unfortunately means
    That I'm no longer with you in the physical
    Not even sure if I believe in God but because you still alive
    He got me praying that the spiritual is real
    So I can be a part of you still, my pops was killed too
    So I know how part of you feels
    Maybe you hate me, maybe you miss me, maybe you spite me
    Life goes in cycles, maybe you'll date a nigga just like me
    I hope not, I'm tired of dope spots
    And fiends that smoke rocks
    I've seen far too many niggas' hopes rot
    I'm writing this because me and the devil had a dance
    Now I see death around the corner, 'pologizing in advance
    Don't know if I ever had a chance
    At a glance, I'm a failure
    Addicted to pushing paraphernalia
    But Daddy had dreams once, my eyes had a gleam once
    Innocence disappeared by the age of eight years
    My Pops shot up, drug-related, mama addicted
    So Granny raised me in projects where thugs was hanging
    Blood was staining the concrete
    Older niggas I loved talked like they was above
    Maintaining a timesheet, that's slow money
    Picked up the family business by the age of thirteen
    Six years later was handed sentence
    'Round the same time is when you came in this world
    Me and your mama thinking:
    "What the fuck we naming this girl?"
    I told her "Nina," the prettiest name that I could think of
    For the prettiest thing my eyes had ever seen, I was nineteen
    Took me two felonies to see the trap
    This crooked-ass system set for me
    And now I fear it's too late for me to ever be
    The one that set examples that was never set for me
    I'm living fast, but not fast enough
    'Cause karma keeps on catching up to me
    And if my past becomes the death of me
    I hope you understand
    [Hook: J. Cole]
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes only
    [Verse 3: J. Cole]
    It's several ways I could've went out, too many to count
    Was it the trigger happy crackers that the badges give clout?
    Was it the young niggas, blasting frustrated
    'Cause the cash running out?
    Niggas don't know how to act in a drought
    See, baby girl, I realized
    My definition of a real nigga was skewed
    My views misshaped by new mixtapes
    That confirmed the shit I learned in the streets was true
    That real niggas don't speak when they beef with you
    They just pull up on your street, let the heat achoo
    And if a real nigga hungry, he gon' eat your food
    I was a fool, spent all my time ducking school, ducking cops
    Ducking rules, hugging blocks that don't love you
    I pray you find a nigga with goals and point of views
    Much broader than the corner, if not it's gon' corner you
    Into a box, where your son don't even know his pops
    And the cyclical nature of doing time continues
    My worst fear is one day that you come home from school
    And see your father face while hearing 'bout tragedy on news
    I got the strangest feeling your daddy gonna lose his life soon
    And sadly if you're listening now it must mean it's true
    But maybe there's a chance that it's not
    And this album remains locked
    In a hard drive like valuable jewels
    And I can teach you this in person
    Like I'm teaching you to tie your own shoes
    I love you and I hope to God I don't lose you
    For your eyes only
    [Hook: CharGaux & J. Cole]
    For your eyes, for your eyes only
    For your eyes, for your eyes only
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes only
    [Verse 4: J. Cole]
    One day your daddy called me, told me he had a funny feeling
    What he'd been dealing with lately, he wasn't telling
    I tried to pick his brains, still he wasn't revealing
    But I could feel the sense of panic in his voice
    And it was chilling, he said:
    "Jermaine, I knew you since we was children
    I never asked for nothing, when times was hard
    I never had discussions with you, begging you to help me
    I dealt with the repercussions of my actions
    I know you tried to steer me 'way from that shit
    But that shit was in my blood, you know my life
    I know your momma, nigga, send my love
    In case I never get a chance to speak again
    I won't forget the weekends spent sleeping at your crib
    That's the way I wished my family lived
    But my granny crib was in the 'jects"
    I had to interject like:
    "Nigga, what you talking 'bout? Fuck is you getting at?"
    He said, "Listen, I got no time to dive into descriptions
    But I been having premonitions
    Just call it visions from the other side
    I got a feeling I won't see tomorrow
    Like the time I'm living on is borrowed
    With that said, the only thing I'm proud to say, I was a father
    Write my story down, and if I pass
    Go play it for my daughter when she ready"
    And so I'm leaving you this record, for your eyes only
    Don't you ever scratch or disrespect it
    This perspective is a real one, another lost 'Ville son
    I dedicate these words to you and all the other children
    Affected by the mass incarceration in this nation
    That sent your pops to prison when he needed education
    Sometimes I think that segregation would've done us better
    Although I know that means that I would never
    Be brought into this world 'cause my daddy was so thrilled
    When he found him a white girl to take back to Jonesboro
    With 'lil Zach and Cole World, barely one years old
    Now it's thirty years later, making sure this story's told
    Girl, your daddy was a real nigga, not 'cause he was cold
    Not because he was the first
    To get some pussy twelve years old
    Not because he used to come through
    In the Caddy on some vogues
    Not because he went from bagging up
    Them grams to serving O's
    Nah, your daddy was a real nigga, not 'cause he was hard
    Not because he lived a life of crime and sat behind some bars
    Not because he screamed, "Fuck the law"
    Although that was true
    Your daddy was a real nigga cause he loved you
    For your eyes only

    Used to write to j cole beats
    All of the time Let my thoughts speak
    In rhyme Each line draws deep
    Fill a A4. fill a drawer
    Evr since handgrip pen been late night writin
    In white moon Lightin til crack a dawn
    Up like a sparrow no rest for the wicked or wise born
    Plain jane not carol pale face bow arrow
    G to the I to th jane to the Demi.
    Heat flow pleny More
    Sparkalin speech from heart on my right sleeve
    Reach for the stars that reflect in the sea what u are is a art piece
    Don't know much but i heard that last scene
    Tellin u a detailed tale not a half speech
    Many minds inside jail on a walk free
    Really are we born free
    Too deep cant go for the long preach
    Some trail blaze or left 2 the wrong street
    Dont ask me cu these lines not mine fly down from a high stream
    Highe past a white beam high like sparkin a flame to a chong tree
    Thing about life see Nothing gona come free or concrete
    Never compete not sayin that im complete

    To the top from the bottom
    Regrets I guess I got'em
    All my friends add up to none
    Flying into the midnight sun
    I'll Make use of wings
    Even if it's just one
    Just thinking over things
    Mostly that I've done
    & Put out the torch
    Before I gotta run
    Demon's mark yes!
    we bare the brand
    GOD Damn
    This monster that I am,
    has killed the former man.
    For your eyes, do understand!
    My mind was a hell that I was tossed and locked in.
    All my sins remembered,
    but none of my prayers forgotten

    I'll Make use of wings <
    Even if it's just one (took these two from Fox Moth in the comments)
    Cause my Shadow my only friend
    And i walk alone among the mists
    Upon forgotten hills
    At dawn the irons on my wrists
    Never would have thought this
    Thought that diamonds would weigh as much as these cares
    Thought that love was sometimes fake and always far
    Thought that no occupation can occupy you from the matrix or
    The field of games can protect you from the changin,
    That of work, and pain, if you have bread dont let it change you
    Stay real cause its for your life, morals stay the same
    They dont go like I might someday,
    Hope that the words I use mean something
    4 your eyez only means something
    That I love you and there is atleast 3 people that do, me, myself and god
    Never chose to be this but chose to be wrong
    Never chose to have life but chose to see hymns
    In our words, love, quotes, you, and everyday songs.

    You really dont so dontact like you know me
    Only god can cast judgemnet upon me
    Fro a milly would you sell my soul and pawn me
    If it was between me and life
    Im guessing youd be living tonight
    So please dont call my phone
    Sometimes i prefer to be alone
    Had so many thoughts 4 your eyes
    I cant spit it off the dome
    Hold up let me sow downim getting frantic
    Disregard my antics
    I needed attention
    Yous the one whod listen
    Grew up in the same cribs
    We damn near the same kid
    So when you gto popped it felt like i had also got hit
    Staright up blood you more than friend
    I never had a brother so i feel like him
    Like a girlfriedn who gto fit
    We together through thick and thin
    Im glad that shot aint hit yo heart i would of had to murder him
    Then put it a song bobby smhurmded him
    Casue you the realist
    When you said i spazzed it bosted my ego
    Now i think i needa kill it
    The n fry that shit in a skillet
    But till then imma keep spazzing
    With this compiter and pen
    4 your eyes
    Yea for yo eyes only
    It was third grade
    I think i saw a butterfly in hell that day
    But i jus wish that it woudlnt of flown my way
    But you taught me lots of lessons so i gess ill be ok
    Like if you from fm no point to be up in a gang
    Like no matter what dont lie on yo homies grave
    Matterfact you teh one that gave me this name
    4 your eyes only
    Yea 4 your eyes only
    When you got locked up
    And cast away
    I was going crazy like Tom hanks in cast away
    You the reason I was made
    You the handle on this blade throigh my heart
    Let me not start
    Put a tab on my tongue it made my mind feel numb
    There was complete darkness before light was able to come
    I think about the situation and the outcomes
    Bro told me god found em
    Angles and demons around
    He know that I got em but I might never hear from him
    He’s going with god above em
    Got thinking what’s above us
    Why would you feel our world with so much hate and llust if you love us
    Or maybe that’s how the devil lived
    But you posed to be my dog god
    For your eyes only
    Show me the way what brings happiness raises getting paid
    Besides getting laid
    I ain’t eaten in days
    No one gaursed edit for days
    I feel no shame
    Put a curse on our name
    For shi we ain’t do
    Dear god I might be you
    And if you feel that’s too much pride
    There might be 2 much pride in you
    For yo eyes only
    And when I’m Alone you the only one watching me
    Why does it seem
    So easy for me
    To forget anomalies
    And tragedies
    Prolly cause it keep on happening and when I don’t cry
    Jsu sing
    Lay me down to rest without a tear in yo eye
    And jus know that I’ll be watching you from the sky
    They say heart is were the home is and home is were your heart at
    But I been feeling homeless so let’s not even start it
    Sitting in a down pour writing more
    Imagine what resides in other galaxies
    Tryn get my root chakra down so I can see
    Never been crip but the great blue sea interests me
    What lies under this earth
    I wanna fall into a black hole
    Let it swallow my mind and soul
    We trapped in thsi earth gorowing old
    When we die will we have more questions or will the truth be told
    One is all all is one
    I am the money being counting by my thumbs
    This universe has many different levels of Clair it’s the variety
    Within society and our minds is constant fighting me
    Gods a dog and he’s biting me
    Life’s a bitch and she’s fighting me
    I jus ride the beat these raps writing me
    Hope all my bro’s gonna ride with me
    Seems like I mostly write about z n b
    But those 3 letters hurt me deep like HIV
    had to bleed before I could see
    Reading this again i finally see
    4 your eyes only
    4 your eye sonly

    Older niggas I loved talked like they was above
    Maintaining a timesheet, that's slow money
    Picked up the family business by the age of thirteen
    Six years later was handed sentence
    'Round the same time is when you came in this world
    Me and your mama thinking:
    "What the fuck we naming this girl?"
    I told her "Nina," the prettiest name that I could think of
    For the prettiest thing my eyes had ever seen, I was nineteen
    Took me two felonies to see the trap
    This crooked-ass system set for me
    And now I fear it's too late for me to ever be
    The one that set examples that was never set for me
    I'm living fast, but not fast enough
    'Cause karma keeps on catching up to me
    And if my past becomes the death of me
    I hope you understand

    [Verse 3: J. Cole]
    It's several ways I could've went out, too many to count
    Was it the trigger happy crackers that the badges give clout?
    Was it the young niggas, blasting frustrated
    'Cause the cash running out?
    Niggas don't know how to act in a drought
    See, baby girl, I realized
    My definition of a real nigga was skewed
    My views misshaped by new mixtapes
    That confirmed the shit I learned in the streets was true
    That real niggas don't speak when they beef with you
    They just pull up on your street, let the heat achoo
    And if a real nigga hungry, he gon' eat your food
    I was a fool, spent all my time ducking school, ducking cops
    Ducking rules, hugging blocks that don't love you
    I pray you find a nigga with goals and point of views
    Much broader than the corner, if not it's gon' corner you
    Into a box, where your son don't even know his pops
    And the cyclical nature of doing time continues
    My worst fear is one day that you come home from school
    And see your father face while hearing 'bout tragedy on news
    I got the strangest feeling your daddy gonna lose his life soon
    And sadly if you're listening now it must mean it's true
    But maybe there's a chance that it's not
    And this album remains locked
    In a hard drive like valuable jewels
    And I can teach you this in person
    Like I'm teaching you to tie your own shoes
    I love you and I hope to God I don't lose you

    For your eyes, for your eyes only
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes only
    [Verse 4: J. Cole]
    One day your daddy called me, told me he had a funny feeling
    What he'd been dealing with lately, he wasn't telling
    I tried to pick his brains, still he wasn't revealing
    But I could feel the sense of panic in his voice
    And it was chilling, he said:
    "Jermaine, I knew you since we was children
    I never asked for nothing, when times was hard
    I never had discussions with you, begging you to help me
    I dealt with the repercussions of my actions
    I know you tried to steer me 'way from that shit
    But that shit was in my blood, you know my life
    I know your momma, nigga, send my love
    In case I never get a chance to speak again
    I won't forget the weekends spent sleeping at your crib
    That's the way I wished my family lived
    But my granny crib was in the 'jects"
    I had to interject like:
    "Nigga, what you talking 'bout? Fuck is you getting at?"
    He said, "Listen, I got no time to dive into descriptions
    But I been having premonitions
    Just call it visions from the other side
    I got a feeling I won't see tomorrow
    Like the time I'm living on is borrowed
    With that said, the only thing I'm proud to say, I was a father
    Write my story down, and if I pass
    Go play it for my daughter when she ready"
    And so I'm leaving you this record, for your eyes only
    Don't you ever scratch or disrespect it
    This perspective is a real one, another lost 'Ville son
    I dedicate these words to you and all the other children
    Affected by the mass incarceration in this nation
    That sent your pops to prison when he needed education
    Sometimes I think that segregation would've done us better
    Although I know that means that I would never
    Be brought into this world 'cause my daddy was so thrilled
    When he found him a white girl to take back to Jonesboro
    With 'lil Zach and Cole World, barely one years old
    Now it's thirty years later, making sure this story's told
    Girl, your daddy was a real nigga, not 'cause he was cold
    Not because he was the first
    To get some pussy twelve years old
    Not because he used to come through
    In the Caddy on some vogues
    Not because he went from bagging up
    Them grams to serving O's
    Nah, your daddy was a real nigga, not 'cause he was hard
    Not because he lived a life of crime and sat behind some bars
    Not because he screamed, "Fuck the law"
    Although that was true
    Your daddy was a real nigga cause he loved you
    For your eyes only

    eu continuo na febre
    escrevendo barras,
    tire primeiro o tronco do seu olho
    pra depois tu vim julgar as minhas farpas,
    a cada letra que eu faço anjos tocam harpas,
    a cada confissão sincera eu limpo mais o karma...
    sigo na saga com sagacidade,
    abstrato ate demais carrego as ondas da cidade,
    sou puro nego mas também conheço a maldade,
    mas escolhi o caminho da luz antes que fosse tarde...
    tentações ainda me tentam
    falsos nas baixas se ausentam
    mundo de ilusao quase tudo num é nada q aparentam...
    fortes caem e se reinventam
    fracos apontam frustrados
    com medo nunca mais tentam...
    fé inabalável,
    com uma alma inegociável,
    focando no interno,
    me pego menos sociável...
    silenciando a mente pra escutar o que Deus me manda,
    e fortalecendo sempre pra quebrar qualquer demanda
    isso é pro seu olho nego
    isso é pra sua alma nega
    isso é pra sua vida nego
    so o amor que te livra do medo...
    mano eu ja dormi na rua
    ja dei pinote nos cana
    fui traido por pessoas que falavam que me ama...
    ja o que era eterno se acabar em um segundo,
    ja vi um amigo de infância catando lixo imundo
    ja perdi outros pro crime
    ja vi outros na prisão
    ja vi minha mae chorar
    ja vi o rico negar pão
    vi deus num morador de rua
    e o diabo num empresário
    ja vi malandro se atrasar
    e quem se adiantava era o otário
    ja vi no topo o tanto de lado
    espinhos cercando o seu entorno,
    consumindo de tudo um pouco
    parecendo o corpo
    de fato so mais um vivo morto
    ja vi tratarem o próximo como objeto
    ja vi a morte no olho de quem chegou mais perto
    eu acredito que tudo é uma coisa só
    e entender isso nego é ta desperto
    isso é pro seu olho nego
    isso é pra sua alma nega
    isso é pra sua vida nego
    so o amor que te livra do medo...
    vendendo num sinal bananada e amendoim,
    a maioria olha e pensa:
    ta fudido esse neguin...
    ninguém ta isento
    isso é um quebra cabeça
    o que acontece com ele
    reflete em tu
    nao se esqueça...
    e do nada para um carrao
    som altao
    bonitao
    mas pro neguin nem deu uma atençao
    coe irmao, é 1 real so
    "nao tenho nao"
    ta suave, ele diz:
    deus abençoe!
    e segue na missao
    não pode deixar abalar
    nem todos sabem o que é abrir a geladeira e faltar
    imagina amar?
    tem que ter fé na humanidade
    é o que ele pensa
    mermo que veja a calamidade
    perdoa e segue,
    enquanto a vida se encarrega..
    ta foda pra ele
    mas ele é um soldado e nao arrega
    do nada para um fusca na sua frente
    o coroa olha pra ele e abaixa a janela
    "chega ai irmão, toma ae"
    nao precisa me dar nada
    so quero te fortalecer...
    é tudo so uma questão de entender
    se nao passou pelo mermo
    escuta ae pra conhecer......
    isso é pro seu olho nego
    isso é pra sua alma nega
    isso é pra sua vida nego
    so o amor que te livra do medo...
    educação, criação boa
    procurar entender a pessoa,
    conversar mostrar que ele nao ta sozin,
    que pode trilhar sim um bom camin
    é nós por nós e se nao for nao da certo,
    pelo menos é assim que eu espero,
    a minha parte to fazendo
    espero que aprendam como também eu to aprendendo
    que olhem pro próximo com muito mais carin,
    que se tornem mais amável antes do fim,
    e segue assim...
    pode maquear como quiser
    nada ofusca
    no fundo é so uma coisa que geral
    amar e ser amado
    se entendido
    se sentir importante
    e entender que de fato ta vivo...
    que a igualdade pode sim prevalecer,
    a União, a comunhão
    onde nao precise prender..
    onde a luz te socorre
    qnd o mal se apresentar
    onde o bem jamais corre
    pra poder o entorno salvar
    tu veio pra servir ou so pra receber??
    tu quer ser feliz ou quer sofrer???
    me diz ae...
    paredes gritam sangram pela ganância
    amor é saída
    e a única esperança.....
    isso é pro seu olho nego
    isso é pra sua alma nega
    isso é pra sua vida nego
    so o amor que te livra do medo...

    Been sitting in my room way before this virus came. depression and my heart seems like there is no greater pain. they label me as strange, because I love standing in rain to hide my tears and all my fears only God can understand. a son without his mother will slowly turn him deranged
    a son without a father there's no guidance for him to change
    a brother without a brother makes it hard to trust another and a brother without his sister will make them bullet shells sing.
    Doctor I just gave you the combination of my pain
    But it seems like on your paper you didn't really hear a thing. you wrote me out prescriptions and you sent me on my way

    Would you be raised by the system or have fathers and mothers
    Would you lay down at nights and still be warm from the cover
    Would your relationship be close or would you drift about and become distant lovers
    Would your dreams become reality or would your reality become your dream tell me would everything change or would it be exactly what seem

    Let me talk truth
    Listen when I’m talking
    I ain’t bout to shoot
    They say the mind limitless
    To be honest I ain’t got a clue
    Dig deep so much inside
    Tryna map out a mental route
    This here is something different
    Tryna tie loose ends
    But all frays I be splitting them
    Talking bout praise idk if Should be giving them
    Hundred thousands problems on my mind
    I can’t be giving in
    Blessed for opportunity and birth
    But if you using it what’s the real worth
    Can learn a lot from a book but not hard work
    Free all the youth who tryna make it from the dirt
    I ain’t like that I grew up new cars
    Fresh water nice backpacks
    Empty tools in media controlled society
    All the troubles with no blame and some anxiety
    I’ve been holding on for too long
    It gets tiring
    Gotta let loose and blow some stream
    From overfrying me
    Couldn’t do it by myself
    So I was trying things
    Blessed with the knowledge but it’s a curse
    Overthinking is a real thing
    and it hurts
    When you know you ain’t fitting in but you rehearse to be what they want you to be
    When you know deep down it’s more of a lying thing

    hay razones por mi ausencia, escucha
    nueve meses se pasan volando
    todavia mas arriba si no se que esta pasando
    tu madre evito nuestros caminos como lineas pararelas
    recuerdo que a mi niña le compraba nuevas suelas
    ni todo el dinero en efectivo hace que no duela
    el hecho que la crie y ahora esa cria vuela, por si sola
    me incomoda no mirar por ella, ni sus hermanos

    despido a los fantasmas que me cazan
    aquellos que me siguen desde que deje a tu abuela sin la casa
    entiendo bien porque aun no te conozco
    me siento mal porque esos brazos pequeños aun no me abrazan
    me encantaria enseñarte a como desarrollarte
    en un pais con personas rudas, no hay que confiarse
    una razon por mi partida
    conoci muy bien las calles que ya estaban adheridas

    4 your eyez only by ymc.j
    Look life is hard, one day your born and the next your gone. girl one day you gonna be a mom taking care of your kids and have a job, your only 14 and been through the most, the scars and memories haunt you like a ghost, and I know it's not my business to talk about yo life, I needed to let the world know how strong you is for coming this far, and never losing hope, you can't let it out and you choke I speak for you cause you don't have a voice, and I know you didn't have a choice, you were young and scared, looking for god but it's like he wasn't there, I wish I could have stopped or changed it, but it's what life does beats you down and you can't erase it. Your mind suicide is racing, and no one ever told her she was amazing, she fell for losers who cheated and played games, I guess us men really are the same, but she lays there and cries thinking she's the one to blame, and her life got her going insane, she needed a way to escape,so she cut herself to relieve the pain. Blood dripping on the bathroom floor, mom banging on the door, people say the don't want to go to hell but they don't realize that they living on it. And now she wears long sleeve shirts to hide her cuts, she lives a sad lonely life, her parents split, one fell into a world of drugs, and the other found love, in the middle she's stuck, plotting suicide and it's like no one gives a fuck. She feels relentless and she smokes to forget, but feels breathless always lives with the regret. It's sad to see her in the gutter, demons drag her under, so she starves herself because of her shape, she don't appreciate, cause snakes love to hate, but of course you can't relate cause you the one to blame, image is powerful but it's only cause we believe it is, words cut deep like a knife, but a knife or a word won't bring back life, so she up all night writes down her final words and ties a knot, this is it end of the plot, she hesitates, takes a deep breath and hangs herself, nobody loved her she was raped and judged, she couldn't tell because she was scared poor baby wasn't prepared, life's a bitch and then u die, that's word to nas, her family has lost, the one thing that couldn't be replaced no matter the cost. They found her dead, she was lonely and scared, no one heard her cries or seen them tears going down her eyes, she was beautiful and shy, she was caring and loving, all she needed was loving. But instead she got nothing. What happened to her being a mom . She was pregnant at 14 a nigga played his cards right, and fucked her through the night. She was pregnant, cause they didn't use protection, thank God she didn't catch an std. But now she got his baby, she talk to him and said he ain't with it, if she don't kill it he ain't finna take her of it. Poor baby a dad who didn't love it. So she drank and drank till her stomach cramped, she bleeding thought it was her period, she was relieved thinking it was a false alarm and then. She felt a pain and it was sharp, and veins appeared on her arm, stress built up, to much for her to manage, she loved the nigga she calling her baby daddy, she a planned to live her life with him, and was dreaming of him and her getting married, she always wanted a marriage, but poor girl had a miscarriage. She didn't know it at the time. So she ran from her family and her past, to a place where there was no sign of her problems insight, where she had sex every night, and did crack till her stomach would collapse, day in and day out she let her demons escape, sold her body for pay, while low life's made it rain, she tied her tubes and vowed to never give birth again, she was addicted to the drugs and owed money to the thugs, she rented an apartment and hid behind the door, just like she did when she cut herself before, uh oh memories coming back at her, of when her friends back stabbed her and called her fat ugly, to when she went home to a mom and a step dad, or to an empty house cause dad wasn't around, she hated her dad and didn't understand how he could leave his family for the drugs and not be a man, then she realized where she was at. All alone she cried to the sky, but to no avail, she pleaded for help from god, but it was like he was gone. She was tired and weak. She tried to drink bleach, she spit it out on the carpet, and throw the rug to street. She never once felt so defeat so she sat alone and weeped. And wanted to go to sleep for all of eternity. people say the don't want to go to hell but they don't realize that they living on it. So she went to home Depot to buy a rope, she struggles tying the knot, maybe it's a sign of god ? She ignores this and proceeds to hang herself. She died alone in her apartment. people will judge , others will love you. It's the people who you wouldn't expect that end up dead. It's the ones who make you laugh the most. And make jokes that have there heart broke, we can't judge a person by their image, or they way the living, or religion. Because we never know what they seen or heard. Take a step in my shoes and be broken and bruised. Take a step in her shoes, and cry in pain. And have no escape for the rest of your miserable days. We all are equal and we are all the same. But only real eyes realize were
    real lies and that word to the goat. We all never know where we finna go. So I watch my back and walk slow. Prey for longer days not better days. Prey for food and health, not popularity and wealth. Wake up and love yo life and never think of suicide cause your not alone. So much shit up in my dome but it never makes me stay away from home, don't blame yourself or the world for your mistakes, just learn from them and move on. Life goes on. And I wish she could have heard this song. But life goes on. For your eyez only.

    Yeah, for your eyes only (for your eyes)
    For your eyes only, for your eyes only (for your eyes)
    For your eyes only
    Hey, niggas be dying on the daily
    It seems my dreams faded for far too long, the consequences deadly
    Can't visualize myself as nothing but a criminal
    Control the block, serving up rocks and stay subliminal
    'Cause young niggas is hardheaded, they letting off
    Full of adrenaline, ignorant to what death can cause
    Ain't no coming back, family dressed in black
    Plus it's hot now, the cops outside, it's hard to flip a pack
    And my daughter gotta eat
    Her mama be stressing me like I ain't the one who put them Jays on her feet
    Like I ain't out in the field like that
    I might be low for the moment but I will bounce back
    Despite the charges, back to the wall, I fight regardless
    Screaming, "Fuck the law, " my life is lawless
    That's what you call it
    Ain't got to be no psychic to see this is like the farthest thing from heaven
    This is hell and I don't mean that hyperbolic
    I try to find employment even if it's wiping toilets
    But these felonies be making life the hardest
    Resisting the temptation to run up and swipe a wallet
    Or run up on your yard, snatch your daughter bike and pawn it
    That's why I write this sonnet
    If the pressure get too much for me to take and I break
    Play this tape for my daughter and let her know my life is on it
    (For your eyes) Let her know my life is on it
    (For your eyes)
    For your eyes only
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes
    You probably grown now so this song'll hit you
    If you're hearing this, unfortunately means that I'm no longer with you
    In the physical, not even sure if I believe in God
    But because you still alive
    He got me praying that the spiritual is real
    So I can be a part of you still, my pops was killed too
    So I know how part of you feels
    Maybe you hate me
    Maybe you miss me, maybe you spite me
    Life goes in cycles, maybe you'll date a nigga just like me
    I hope not, I'm tired of dope spots
    And fiends that smoke rocks
    I've seen far too many niggas' hopes rot
    I'm writing this because me and the devil had a dance
    Now I see death around the corner, 'pologizing in advance
    Don't know if I ever had a chance
    At a glance, I'm a failure
    Addicted to pushing paraphernalia
    But Daddy had dreams once, my eyes had a gleam once
    Innocence disappeared by the age of eight years
    My Pops shot up, drug-related
    Mama addicted
    So Granny raised me in projects where thugs was hanging
    Blood was staining the concrete
    Older niggas I loved talked like they was above, maintaining a time sheet
    That slow money, picked up the family business
    By the age of thirteen, six years later was handed sentence
    'Round the same time is when you came in this world
    Me and your mama thinking, what the fuck we naming this girl?
    I told her Nina, the prettiest name that I could think of
    For the prettiest thing my eyes had ever seen, I was nineteen
    Took me two felonies to see the trap
    This crooked ass system set for me
    And now I fear it's too late for me to ever be
    The one that set examples that was never set for me
    I'm living fast, but not fast enough
    'Cause karma keeps on catching up to me
    And if my past becomes the death of me
    I hope you understand
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes
    It's several ways I could've went out, too many to count
    Was it the trigger happy crackers that the badges give clout
    Was it the young niggas, blasting frustrated cause the cash running out
    Niggas don't know how to act in a drought
    See baby girl I realized, my definition of a real nigga was skewed
    My views misshaped by new mixtapes
    That confirmed the shit I learned in the streets was true
    That real niggas don't speak when they beef with you
    They just pull up on your street, let the heat achoo
    And if a real nigga hungry he gon' eat your food
    I was a fool, spent all my time ducking school, ducking cops
    Ducking rules, hugging blocks that don't love you
    I pray you find a nigga with goals and point of views
    Much broader than the corner, if not it's gon' corner you
    Into a box, where your son don't even know his pops
    And the cyclical nature of doing time continues
    My worst fear is one day that you come home from school and see your
    Father face while hearing 'bout tragedy on news
    I got the strangest feeling your Daddy gonna lose his life soon
    And sadly if you're listening now it must mean it's true
    But maybe there's a chance that it's not
    And this album remains locked in a hard drive like valuable jewels
    And I can teach you this in person like I'm teaching you to tie your own shoes
    I love you and I hope to God I don't lose you
    For your eyes only
    For your eyes
    For your eyes only
    For your eyes
    For your eyes only
    For your eyes do you understand, for your eyes
    One day your daddy called me, told me he had a funny feeling
    What he'd been dealing with lately, he wasn't telling
    I tried to pick his brains, still he wasn't revealing
    But I could feel the sense of panic in his voice and it was chilling
    He said "Jermaine, I knew you since we was children I never asked for nothing
    When times was hard I never had discussions with you begging you to help me
    I dealt with the repercussions of my actions
    I know you tried to steer me 'way from that shit
    But that shit was in my blood, you know my life
    I know your Momma nigga, send my love
    In case I never get a chance to speak again
    I won't forget the weekends spent sleeping at your crib
    That's the way I wished my family lived
    But my granny crib was in the 'jects
    I had to interject like, "Nigga what you talking 'bout? Fuck is you getting at?"
    He said "Listen, I got no time to dive into descriptions
    But I've been having premonitions, just call it visions from the other side
    I got a feeling I won't see tomorrow, like the time I'm living on is borrowed
    With that said the only thing I'm proud to say I was a father
    Write my story down and if I pass go play it for my daughter when she ready
    And so I'm leaving you this record for your eyes only, don't you ever scratch or disrespect it
    This perspective is a real one, another lost Ville son
    I dedicate these words to you and all the other children
    Affected by the mass incarceration in this nation
    That sent your pops to prison when he needed education
    Sometimes I think this segregation would've done us better
    Although I know that means I would never be brought into this world
    'Cuz my daddy was so thrilled when he found him a
    White girl to take back to Jonesborough with
    'Lil Zach and Cole World barely one years old
    Now it's thirty years later making sure the story's told
    Girl your daddy was a real nigga, not 'cos he was cold
    Not because he was the first to get some pussy twelve years old
    Not because he used to come through in the Caddy on some vogues
    Not because he went from bagging up them grams to serving O's
    Nah your daddy was a real nigga, not 'cos he was hard
    Not because he lived a life of crime and sat behind some bars
    Not because he screamed fuck the law, although that was true
    Your daddy was a real nigga 'cuz he loved you"
    For your eyes only

I don’t recommend season 3 bc it’s very slow paced and the animation is weird. As someone who is a super fan and watched basically anything lupin, this is the best stuff.

    Alright. Let me start this off by saying everybody loves their own life
    Everybody has their own story
    I can’t tell you to sit there and listen to mine but maybe you just might
    You may even relate to me in a way or too I pray I’m not boring
    Because I’ve went 20 years thinking I was something special
    Like I was an angel sent on a mission
    I lost my halo for a while down here but Im getting them back I see a vision
    There people out there who will tell me to change but will complain about me switching
    What’s the meaning of life
    Like why am I here
    All I see is corruption turning into fear
    Why should I open up to anybody it’s an inevitable tear
    We all cry
    We all die
    We ask Him oh god why
    It’s so easy to believe in nothing
    But we go our whole time searching for something
    Something to fill the void
    Feel so empty like a black hole on steroids
    We see pain so easily in the human eye
    Seeing through the faith of my soul is a wish of mine
    Most of y’all will think I’m just speaking nonsense
    But i know someone out there will understand the knowledge
    That I am trying to speak
    Trying to show
    I do believe
    In the path I am on I have to go
    I started off slow now I’m on a roll
    Trying to transfer the feelings I feel into words of this material place
    Get so frustrated sometimes as blood rush to my face
    Praying to someone help me change my ways
    Lately I’ve been all over the place
    I need a rock I need a shelter
    I thought I had it in a girl but the rain or truth did melt her
    I had to pick up the pieces of my heart
    As I started picking
    I got this feeling
    That someone was at the door
    All I had to do was open it and let him in
    I said oh lord
    I broke down
    Fell to my knees
    Said oh god please
    Do what must be done
    I can’t feel this way no more
    I’m way too young
    He said child don’t worry
    Wrapped me up in his arms in a hurry
    I know life can seem like a flurry
    A cluster of things
    But the grace of my love saves you fix you up it’ll no longer sting
    Since that day all I ever want to do is celebrate and sing
    His will has been done
    I will follow and bring glory to the name of his son
    All my success is all his glory
    I’ll be the best but it’s really just his story

      Ambitions turned to dust then came back and shot up. Went from being a shotta to wanting to be a doctor.

    Anno scolastico 21-22
    Inizia in malo modo ognuno per le sue
    Era da tanto che non ci vedevamo
    Vi sentivo come un eco, si da lontano
    E vi vedevo sopra a un fottuto monitor
    Sembrava un episodio di black mirror
    Nuovi professori con gli stessi compagni
    Mascherine in faccia e rotelle sotto ai banchi
    Sapete, di nuova c'era pure la location
    Convitto Palmieri, un luogo assai fashion
    Aspettavamo tutti insieme fuori scuola
    O più spesso entravamo a seconda ora
    Ricordate Padula che investì Mattia
    Ricordate la scacchiera che era venuta via
    Ci accusarono di averla rubata
    Come fossimo appassionati di scacchi e dama
    Ed eravamo la classe che faceva più casino
    Ma almeno eravamo uniti, nessun caino
    Che cazzata lo sciopero per la robotizzione
    Ma siamo giovani e vogliamo la rivoluzione
    O così si dice, ma chi se ne importa
    Tanto c'è Fernando che ci aspetta sulla porta
    Quante ne abbiam passate, quante ne vivremo ancora
    Non sapere niente ma andare lo stesso a scuola
    Interrogazioni uhh!! non vedo l'ora
    Tanto vada come vada noi ritorneremo ancora
    Quante volte ci siam chiesti: che ci facciamo qui ?
    Non ci interessa la risposta a noi va bene così
    A noi va bene così
    Così così
    Quante volte ci siam litigati per sciocchezze
    O quante volte non abbiam studiato pensando non ci fosse niente
    A noi va bene così
    A noi va bene così
    Così così

    Like cole said, niggas dying on the daily
    I’m slowly getting more and more crazy
    Just one person, just one
    Ever tried to save me
    And now that you’re gone
    My thoughts like my rhymes getting so lazy
    No more saving up Pennies and dimes
    Just to see you again
    My heart would fuckin shine
    I don’t care about the lies,
    I just want you to hear me again
    This only for you
    Just you and only your eyes
    Jealously and envy
    Caused by them other guys
    Who had more worth than me clearly
    Who put more work in, I almost lost you to one, just nearly
    My life’s in circles repeating
    And like I wanted you I thought that you need me
    But I’ve never been the man yoh we’re seeing
    Just pathetic, fallin for a girl next to angelic
    Now I’m drinking and manic
    To manage a heart even more damaged
    I’m lost, please find me cuz I’m only getting more stranded,
    Silver Beatle,
    Ams cut up from razor blades avoiding the needle
    I feel too far gone, so I just savor that gaze
    Remembering all of our better days
    Seeing you the first time I got paid
    And now I’m just stuck in my mind
    Rappin away
    Embracing the pain
    I still cry every time I see your name
    So this is for your eyes, your own eyes only
    The only person to ever put in effort to know me
    Puttin other Niggas for once below me
    But I no longer feel like myself
    Without you I don’t even know me
    Day by day getting more lonely
    Not a real Nigga just up and fuckin phoney
    Waiting for you to wake up and just phone me
    Avoid all of the drama and ghosting
    To Your momma and all of your friends who think that they know me
    Just understand that I tried my best
    But that’s shits hard with all the stress
    And every single fucked up thought
    I’ve created in my head
    An empty spot for her still in my bed
    A loss for fuckin words so I love you
    Yeah you know what I said
    I flipped the script, acting like my daddy
    Before he dipped,
    An asshole and dick
    Just like that, knowing I would never fit
    I had dreams of having a life
    My beautiful girl besides me
    While I get to be calling her wife
    Now the only thing touching is the blade on the knife
    You got me up and waiting for you
    Every single night
    And all I wanna do is go and make every thing right
    I fight and fight
    But it’s never seen in the sight
    So I’m making this for you
    And only your eyes
    So before it all ends
    Please just know that I tried

    I hate having money. It's the root of all evil.
    Since I got this money, I've lost so many people.
    Niggas that I use to get cool cups with
    Use every opportunity to screw up shit
    I tried to take these niggas on the journey with me
    Now, I gotta find files for my attorney to see
    Dawg, I'd give you all this money, shit, if that's what you need.
    Mo money, mo problems. I just want to be freed.
    Just enough for my fam. That, and the best weed.
    Anything beyond that is a drain, indeed.
    Until you've seen what I''ve seen and the strain of need
    You won't understand the underlying pain of greed.
    You have never had to question all your best friends' love.
    Or settle for the love you can find in a club
    Knowing that her only hope is to upgrade
    Child support or assault case, they all get paid.
    I prayed all my life for my day in the Sun
    If you were walking in my shoes, Pimp, I'd tell you to run.
    Find somewhere to hide, so you can't be seen
    If she was there before the money, nigga, that's your Queen.
    All my day 1 niggas stay by my side
    And everybody else, they all think I died.
    If you ever really need me, nigga, fuck yo pride.
    I'm still the same nigga, dawg. We gone ride.

    Always drinking red bull
    Now lifes cant flow cafeein
    When you remeber me
    forgotten even more than it
    with my music and rune for this
    Its good having regretfullers
    So, hope you dont miss your dreamers
    I know we driving really throughly
    Jewely was not poorly on your neckless(니얼리)
    Really was looking good hearly
    I saw the situation at last
    The present once the future had past
    You are a best not the same laik the past
    While the way cons(ole) all the day
    On and on, you are only one
    Forgive(up) no, dont sit hoe, dust does, roll it rolls, what are you no.
    Let just try, you can do it better, you are doing better, because life is gone.
    Because lifes alone
    Drinking absolute
    우린 항상 레드불마시며 살아갔어
    이젠 삶은 그거없인 흐를수도 없어서 말이야
    니가 날 기억할때즈음 다른 것에 밀리고 치여 상상할수 없겠지.
    내 음악과 목소리, 과거까지말이야
    널 회상해줄사람이 있다는 건 좋은거야
    그러니 꿈은 놓지 말고 살아가길 바래
    나도 알아 우린 너무 힘들다는 거
    그래도 포기하지 않길바래
    보석은 니 목에 제일 잘 어울리거든
    니가 좋아하는 일을 할때 넌 제일 행복하거든
    난 마침내 보았어 미래가 가지고 있던
    과거 즉 현재를 보았지
    니가 최고야 과거와는 이젠 다르잔아?
    그동안의 힘든거 모두 위로 받았으면 좋겠어
    넌 그저 너라고, 니가 좋아하는 일들을 하라구
    포기하지말라고, 주저하지 말라고, 먼지도 굴러가는데 니가 못할게 뭐있어
    일단 시도해봐 넌 다 잘할수잇고 잘하고 잇어
    삶은 이미 흐르고 있거든

    i start my song off with a story back in 1992 in the streets of Peatown with the man hoping for all the glory on the corner house in the borough dirt stand inside his nails with a dream of running streets with the heaps of sheep all on his hail but for now he’ll build it up watch from a far while they sellin dubs waking up in a bed of lust
    he wipes his jeans covered in rust
    he lives on the sidewalk
    he super sly he keeps his eye to watch
    around him
    with the job he hates headin to work, punch into the time slot

    Hey, niggas be dying on the daily
    It seems my dreams faded for far too long, the consequences deadly
    Can't visualize myself as nothing but a criminal
    Control the block, serving up rocks and stay subliminal
    'Cause young niggas is hardheaded, they letting off
    Full of adrenaline, ignorant to what death can cause
    Ain't no coming back, family dressed in black
    Plus it's hot now, the cops outside, it's hard to flip a pack
    And my daughter gotta eat
    Her mama be stressing me like I ain't the one who put them Jays on her feet
    Like I ain't out in the field like that
    I might be low for the moment but I will bounce back
    Despite the charges, back to the wall, I fight regardless
    Screaming, "Fuck the law, " my life is lawless
    That's what you call it
    Ain't got to be no psychic to see this is like the farthest thing from heaven
    This is hell and I don't mean that hyperbolic
    I try to find employment even if it's wiping toilets
    But these felonies be making life the hardest
    Resisting the temptation to run up and swipe a wallet
    Or run up on your yard, snatch your daughter bike and pawn it
    That's why I write this sonnet
    If the pressure get too much for me to take and I break
    Play this tape for my daughter and let her know my life is on it
    (For your eyes) Let her know my life is on it
    (For your eyes)
    For your eyes only
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes
    You probably grown now so this song'll hit you
    If you're hearing this, unfortunately means that I'm no longer with you
    In the physical, not even sure if I believe in God
    But because you still alive
    He got me praying that the spiritual is real
    So I can be a part of you still, my pops was killed too
    So I know how part of you feels
    Maybe you hate me
    Maybe you miss me, maybe you spite me
    Life goes in cycles, maybe you'll date a nigga just like me
    I hope not, I'm tired of dope spots
    And fiends that smoke rocks
    I've seen far too many niggas' hopes rot
    I'm writing this because me and the devil had a dance
    Now I see death around the corner, 'pologizing in advance
    Don't know if I ever had a chance
    At a glance, I'm a failure
    Addicted to pushing paraphernalia
    But Daddy had dreams once, my eyes had a gleam once
    Innocence disappeared by the age of eight years
    My Pops shot up, drug-related
    Mama addicted
    So Granny raised me in projects where thugs was hanging
    Blood was staining the concrete
    Older niggas I loved talked like they was above, maintaining a time sheet
    That slow money, picked up the family business
    By the age of thirteen, six years later was handed sentence
    'Round the same time is when you came in this world
    Me and your mama thinking, what the fuck we naming this girl?
    I told her Nina, the prettiest name that I could think of
    For the prettiest thing my eyes had ever seen, I was nineteen
    Took me two felonies to see the trap
    This crooked ass system set for me
    And now I fear it's too late for me to ever be
    The one that set examples that was never set for me
    I'm living fast, but not fast enough
    'Cause karma keeps on catching up to me
    And if my past becomes the death of me
    I hope you understand
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes, do you understand me?
    For your eyes, do you understand?
    For your eyes
    It's several ways I could've went out, too many to count
    Was it the trigger happy crackers that the badges give clout
    Was it the young niggas, blasting frustrated cause the cash running out
    Niggas don't know how to act in a drought
    See baby girl I realized, my definition of a real nigga was skewed
    My views misshaped by new mixtapes
    That confirmed the shit I learned in the streets was true
    That real niggas don't speak when they beef with you
    They just pull up on your street, let the heat achoo
    And if a real nigga hungry he gon' eat your food
    I was a fool, spent all my time ducking school, ducking cops
    Ducking rules, hugging blocks that don't love you
    I pray you find a nigga with goals and point of views
    Much broader than the corner, if not it's gon' corner you
    Into a box, where your son don't even know his pops
    And the cyclical nature of doing time continues
    My worst fear is one day that you come home from school and see your
    Father face while hearing 'bout tragedy on news
    I got the strangest feeling your Daddy gonna lose his life soon
    And sadly if you're listening now it must mean it's true
    But maybe there's a chance that it's not
    And this album remains locked in a hard drive like valuable jewels
    And I can teach you this in person like I'm teaching you to tie your own shoes
    I love you and I hope to God I don't lose you
    For your eyes only
    For your eyes
    For your eyes only
    For your eyes
    For your eyes only
    For your eyes do you understand, for your eyes
    One day your daddy called me, told me he had a funny feeling
    What he'd been dealing with lately, he wasn't telling
    I tried to pick his brains, still he wasn't revealing
    But I could feel the sense of panic in his voice and it was chilling
    He said "Jermaine, I knew you since we was children I never asked for nothing
    When times was hard I never had discussions with you begging you to help me
    I dealt with the repercussions of my actions
    I know you tried to steer me 'way from that shit
    But that shit was in my blood, you know my life
    I know your Momma nigga, send my love
    In case I never get a chance to speak again
    I won't forget the weekends spent sleeping at your crib
    That's the way I wished my family lived
    But my granny crib was in the 'jects
    I had to interject like, "Nigga what you talking 'bout? Fuck is you getting at?"
    He said "Listen, I got no time to dive into descriptions
    But I've been having premonitions, just call it visions from the other side
    I got a feeling I won't see tomorrow, like the time I'm living on is borrowed
    With that said the only thing I'm proud to say I was a father
    Write my story down and if I pass go play it for my daughter when she ready
    And so I'm leaving you this record for your eyes only, don't you ever scratch or disrespect it
    This perspective is a real one, another lost Ville son
    I dedicate these words to you and all the other children
    Affected by the mass incarceration in this nation
    That sent your pops to prison when he needed education
    Sometimes I think this segregation would've done us better
    Although I know that means I would never be brought into this world
    'Cuz my daddy was so thrilled when he found him a
    White girl to take back to Jonesborough with
    'Lil Zach and Cole World barely one years old
    Now it's thirty years later making sure the story's told
    Girl your daddy was a real nigga, not 'cos he was cold
    Not because he was the first to get some pussy twelve years old
    Not because he used to come through in the Caddy on some vogues
    Not because he went from bagging up them grams to serving O's
    Nah your daddy was a real nigga, not 'cos he was hard
    Not because he lived a life of crime and sat behind some bars
    Not because he screamed fuck the law, although that was true
    Your daddy was a real nigga 'cuz he loved you"
    For your eyes only

    Otro tema más
    Esquivando clichés
    Pero Che
    Es complicado
    Estando a tú Merced
    Estaremos juntos toda la vida
    No lo sé
    Lo que se
    Es que viviría siempre el mismo día una y otra vez
    Me refiero
    A esa noche en Santiago
    Tú te hacías la dura
    Yo con cara de se lo que hago
    Y Sabes que no me halago
    Pero si la labia fuera magia
    Yo seguro fuera un mago
    Bueh, ella me dice fantasma
    Pero que sonría su mirada verde oliva es lo único que me basta
    Para
    Cambiar mi cara
    Sonreír al mañana
    Y es que por mi fuera
    Para hacer el amor le faltarían días a la semana
    La haría gemir besando su entrepierna
    Pero mierda
    Me puse hot!
    Cambiemos el tema
    Que ya no hay palabras pa la sensación de tenerte encima
    O si?
    SINESTESIA
    Pal dolor eres anestesia
    Me falta paciencia
    Cuando no estás cerca
    Me encanta
    tu risa nerviosa
    Al acariciar la cicatriz de tu panza
    Me encanta
    ir contigo a la plaza
    Y es que por tus
    Cualidades
    Sanaste mis males
    No estaremos juntos siempre pero si añales
    Tú figura pasea por mis versos
    Coqueteando con mis rimas
    Mis letras hablan más de ti que yo
    No creo en el destino,
    Si en la casualidad
    Dime si fue suerte o sino
    Casi un Lustro de se juntaran nuestros caminos
    Aunque no seamos eternos
    Me siento enterno en este momento
    Aunque el ser no es eterno
    si lo es el sentimento

    my 2 shoes on slabs of concrete that’s loose
    the bubble gum chew sticking to grooves that it choose
    a resident until i lift up my leg
    a resident that left something so little yet it’ll stay
    till i notice it’s a problem
    all my problems gotta solve em
    tryna fix everything for everyone
    only left me in disarray
    lies, stealing, picking , peeling shooting reeling
    stupid me ain’t realized i was one that they was feeling
    one they was using
    one that they choosed for entertainment
    got a loose tooth but he won’t replace it
    i’m a shoot you but i won’t aim it
    gotta cruise through and i won’t i blame it on you
    life’s a bitch and the shits crazy
    i rather love but they all hating
    can’t see me the glass is stainless
    but i hear you and the shit your saying
    phone calls down the grape vine
    every other day at the same time
    my life’s a wonder for everyone around me
    instead of acting on shit they try to get above me
    but being me won’t make you better then me
    i got all these people congratulating but i haven’t finished what i’m making
    i got the stove on with lyrical masterpieces and bacon
    i got the maple on call ready to make or break it
    but i won’t break it
    the sky speaks to me at night
    the moon giving me winks
    and the clouds barking and bite
    the escalade is shining
    my jewelry with diamonds
    my cloths are all designer
    and i want more
    i want my name to get around
    and i want you all to know the sound
    when footsteps near it’s downhill starting now
    my names most common word in the streets around here
    one person sees me winning and they wish that they had riding
    along with me instead
    of on a team that left them honestly
    with hardly anything out of it except for some bark and leave
    it’s hard for me
    excepting everybody gossiping frostily
    off of me
    how about all of y’all just get off of me
    and i’m not done even though the conversations been won
    y’all say i’m rambling but i’ve just got more in the chamber in this gun
    the smokes clear but the ending isn’t near
    i look in all of your eyes and i see all the fear
    but there’s no need i’m here for rehabilitation
    i got barages you ain’t dodging so get to apologizing
    you know what fuck it
    it’s to late for that now
    white boy get to the spraying and just lay em down
    that’s what my mind sees
    but i ain’t acting feelings
    a smart cold business man lecturing on the dealings
    the little boy is stealing
    when i left the cookie jar out
    unlock the case to my heart surprise when it was ripped out
    it’s on me
    not you or us three
    how foolishly could i be
    excepting you be with me
    my vision splitting in three
    operating on what i see
    the best version of me
    best person that i could be
    holding me back when i’m bringing you up it’s me
    a rich town
    it’s so sound
    but cold ain’t getting warmer
    nobody acting for ya
    years are going getting older
    learning best that i could
    looking over my shoulder
    year in streets how bad could it really be
    grow old in elementary and be the man you see
    pressuring lecturing worked up till now
    when he’s gone who’s gonna get the money for the house
    stealing dealing and feeling it
    best friend taking but she still just ain’t feeling it
    filling holes in the sealing in her rhythms it’s
    not enough more will come when she’s billing it
    when she feels it maybe it will be enough
    the rough tough roads paving or made in stone
    traveling on your own
    heads up and look forward
    the ends packing rewards
    high heads hold swords that
    low ones can’t afford
    misery leads to victory and glee
    but i’m not done
    my words spiral for a mile i’m the chosen one
    my syllables are clearly visible the pinnacle
    my studying leading to mastering of all the principal
    that others always lack
    and this loop ain’t never coming back
    hopefully my words inspire to the ones who see
    vocally my speaking out is honesty openly totally
    my faith going out to one’s who want it globally
    listen to my preachings and study it like it’s poetry
    like lost poetry if you will
    from a 1000 years ago
    and im just spitting it it’s my drill
    my cold heart attitude
    i got my future it’s magnitude
    in my solitude i focus on my writings it ain’t hard to do
    but y’all fucking with finger food
    strung up on all my gratitude
    i laugh at you
    funny looking when you backing up the fued
    you switching up your conscious aching cause you can’t keep up with virtue
    you knew you lose
    tryna to screw me loose
    you boo excuse
    hatefull attitude just fucking tie the noose
    not picking up on clues that i’m just trying my best to send through
    and i refuse losing ain’t an option i’m on death row and i’ll fight to stop it
    and i’ll fight till he’s dropping
    whoever it may be who standing there opposing me
    no blinking no actings leading up i’m on the scene
    i tell myself to work hard respect will help me live on
    my name in all your minds all the time
    till then i sit and brine

      BMS Music unfortunately it’s not as easy as that, this album cole uses barely any samples and uses a lot more live instruments so it’s harder to get a proper instrumental without re-recording all of it or having the original pro tools session (so you can just mute the vocals)

      Fair enough, although I’m sure one could still make a decent recreation off of the original sample, even if the drums would not be the same...
      Good job you did regardless

    Yo
    Uh
    Uh so, there’s a female that is in my life
    Or, should i say I want her in my life
    Because, with all these other girls around me I just can’t seem to find someone that I want in my life
    But I think I really found her and I think she’s perfect
    She’s nice, she’s smart, she’s like my favorite person
    And she’s so beautiful, so pretty, she can really work it
    But is spending all this time to try and get her, really worth it?
    I mean that’s what I hope man, cause she’s dope and, without her, I feel held back by a fucking rope man
    But, will being with her really change this feelin?
    Or is this time I’m wasting is really what I need for healin?
    I just need to stop stressing and maybe do some thinkin
    Cause I have all this hatred built up for myself, and that’s something I’m already dealin, with
    I can’t put her through all of my shit
    But no matter what I can’t stop loving her one bit
    But is giving up on her really something I can handle?
    Or will I become so damn depressed my will to live will dwindle
    Man, I really just don’t know what to do
    Should, and how will I make her my boo?
    And also find a way, to change her mind too
    I just love her way too much, this is for her eyez only, and well, I guess also you, uh

    I been feeling phony
    Cause he wasn’t my Brodie
    And who really even know me cause
    I don’t really know
    For your eyes onky
    Yo im jacking off
    Dopamine’s levels are blasting off
    When im dole I just turn it off
    And im disgusted with the loss
    I lost pride, it feels like my humility done died
    Four your eyes only
    And as you run through my veins
    What do you feel?
