Snow On Tha Bluff: https://JCole.lnk.to/SnowOnThaBluffProduced by J. Cole & Wu10Niggas be thinkin I’m deep/intelligent, fooled by college degreeMy IQ is average, there’s a young lady out there she way smarter than me I scrolled through her timeline in these wild times and I started to read She mad at these crackers, she mad at these capitalists, mad at these murder police,She mad at my niggas, she mad at our ignorance, she wear her heart on her sleeve She mad at the celebrities, low key I be thinkin she talking bout me Now I ain’t no dummy to think I’m above criticism so when I see something that’s valid I listen But Shit, its something about the queen tone that’s bothering meShe strike me as somebody blessed enough to grow up in conscious environment With parents that know bout the struggle for liberation and in turn they provided with A perspective and awareness of the system and unfairness that afflicts emAnd the clearest understanding of what we gotta do to get free,And the frustration the fills her words seems to come from the fact that most people don’t see just cuz you woke and I’m not, that shit ain’t no reason to talk like you better than meHow you gon lead, when you attacking the very same niggas that really do needThe shit that you saying? instead of conveying you holier come help get us up to speedShit it’s a reason it took like 200 years for our ancestors just to get freedThese shackles be lockin the mental way more than physical, I look at freedom like treesCan’t grow a forest like overnight, hit the ghetto and slowly start planting your seeds Fuck is the point of you preaching your message to those that already believe what you believe?I’m on some “fuck a retweet”, most people is sheep,You got all the answers but how you gon reach?If I could make one more suggestion respectfully I would say it’s more effective to treatPeople like children, understanding the time and love and patience that’s needed to grow, This change is inevitable but ain’t none of us seen this beforeTherefore we just gotta learn everything as we go,I struggle with thoughts on the daily Feel like a slave that somehow done saved enough coins to buy his way up outta slaveryThinking just maybe, in my pursuit to make life so much better for me and my babies I done betrayed the very same people that look at me like I’m some kind of a heroBecause of the zeros that’s next to the commas, but look here I promise I’m not who you thinkRan into this nigga outside of the store yesterday he said something that had me like “wait”,He was like “Cole, preciate what you been doin My nigga, that’s real” but damn, why I feel faker Than snow on the bluff? well maybe cuz deep down I know I ain’t doing enough,The sun is shining todayThe sun is shining todayThe sun is shining todayCan you walk with me? I hope we’ll find the reason why we often sob. Go on cry. Painful memories fuck up the vibethough I be trying to let the time heal my mind. I was once a child, I’ve gotten olderStill, I know I’m just a boy in Gods eyes. Fill me up with wisdom and some courage, plus endurance to survive help mine thriveConnect with J.
