[00:00.05]J. Cole - MIDDLE CHILD
[00:00.16]Written by:J. Cole
[00:03.30]You good T-Minus
[00:08.62]N**gas been countin' me out
[00:09.85]I'm countin' my bullets I'm loadin' my clips
[00:11.64]I'm writin' down names I'm makin' a list
[00:13.47]I'm checkin' it twice and I'm gettin' 'em hit
[00:15.56]The real ones been dyin' the fake ones is lit
[00:17.45]The game is off balance I'm back on my sh*t
[00:19.68]The Bentley is dirty my sneakers is dirty
[00:21.26]But that's how I like it you all on my d**k
[00:23.30]I'm all in my bag this hard as it get
[00:25.14]I do not snort powder I might take a sip
[00:27.08]I might hit the blunt but I'm liable to trip
[00:28.96]I ain't poppin' no pill but you do as you wish
[00:31.00]I roll with some fiends I love 'em to death
[00:32.88]I got a few mil' but not all of them rich
[00:34.87]What good is the bread if my n**gas is broke
[00:36.70]What good is first class if my n**gas can't sit
[00:38.64]That's my next mission that's why I can't quit
[00:40.59]Just like LeBron get my n**gas more chips
[00:42.53]Just put the Rollie right back on my wrist
[00:44.51]This watch came from Drizzy he gave me a gift
[00:46.55]Back when the rap game was prayin' I'd diss
[00:48.28]They act like two legends cannot coexist
[00:50.33]But I'd never beef with a n**ga for nothin'
[00:52.27]If I smoke a rapper it's gon' be legit
[00:54.15]It won't be for clout it won't be for fame
[00:56.19]It won't be 'cause my sh*t ain't sellin' the same
[00:58.03]It won't be to sell you my latest lil' sneakers
[00:59.91]It won't be 'cause some n**ga slid in my lane
[01:02.16]Everything grows it's destined to change
[01:03.89]I love you lil' n**gas I'm glad that you came
[01:05.79]I hope that you scrape every dollar you can
[01:07.72]I hope you know money won't erase the pain
[01:09.71]To the OGs I'm thankin' you now
[01:11.59]Was watchin' you when you was pavin' the ground
[01:13.58]I copied your cadence I mirrored your style
[01:15.36]I studied the greats I'm the greatest right now
[01:17.54]F**k if you feel me you ain't got a choice
[01:19.37]Now I ain't do no promo still made all that noise
[01:21.35]This sh*t gon' be different I set my intentions
[01:23.29]I promise to slap all that hate out your voice
[01:25.80]N**gas been countin' me out
[01:27.23]I'm countin' my bullets I'm loadin' my clips
[01:29.06]I'm writin' down names I'm makin' a list
[01:30.90]I'm checkin' it twice and I'm gettin' 'em hit
[01:32.89]The real ones been dyin' the fake ones is lit
[01:34.88]The game is off balance I'm back on my sh*t
[01:36.77]The Bentley is dirty my sneakers is dirty
[01:38.68]But that's how I like it you all on my d**k
[01:43.47]I just poured somethin' in my cup
[01:47.34]I've been wantin' somethin' I can feel
[01:51.14]Promise I am never lettin' up
[01:55.08]Money in your palm don't make you real
[01:58.85]Foot is on they neck I got 'em stuck
[02:02.78]I'ma give 'em somethin' they can feel
[02:06.19]If it ain't 'bout the squad don't give a f**k
[02:10.53]Pistol in your hand don't make you real
[02:12.32]I'm dead in the middle of two generations
[02:13.65]I'm little bro and big bro all at once
[02:15.48]Just left the lab with young 21 Savage
[02:17.47]I'm 'bout to go and meet Jigga for lunch
[02:19.37]Had a long talk with the young n**ga Kodak
[02:21.42]Reminded me of young n**gas from 'Ville
[02:23.26]Straight out the projects no fakin' just honest
[02:25.15]I wish that he had more guidance for real
[02:27.09]Too many n**gas in cycle of jail
[02:29.16]Spending they birthdays inside of a cell
[02:31.00]We coming from a long bloodline of trauma
[02:32.89]We raised by our mamas Lord we gotta heal
[02:34.93]We hurting our sisters the babies as well
[02:36.72]We killing our brothers they poisoned the well
[02:38.79]Distorted self image we set up to fail
[02:40.63]I'ma make sure that the real gon' prevail n**ga
[02:45.40]I just poured somethin' in my cup
[02:49.24]I've been wantin' somethin' I can feel
[02:52.88]Promise I am never lettin' up
[02:56.78]Money in your palm don't make you real
[03:00.63]Foot is on they neck I got 'em stuck
[03:04.72]I'ma give 'em somethin' they can feel
[03:08.33]If it ain't 'bout the squad don't give a f**k
[03:12.50]Pistol in your hand don't make you real
[03:16.53]Money in your palm don't make you real
[03:20.30]Pistol in your hand don't make you real
