Born Sinner - J. Cole James Fauntleroy
Spinning in circles, live my life without rehearsal
If I die today my n*gga was it business?
Was it personal?
Should this be my last breath
I'm blessed cause it was purposeful
Never got to church to worship Lord
But please be merciful
You made me versatile, well-rounded like cursive
Now you chose me for a purpose
I put my soul in these verses
Born sinner, was never born to be perfect
Sucka for women licking their lips
And holding these purses
Back when we ran the streets
Who would think we grow to be murderers
Teachers treated n*ggas as
If they totally worthless
And violent, and hopeless
I saw but never noticed that the
College point is right to
"Be All That You Can Be" posters
Rest in peace to Tiffany
I don't know if this is the realest **** I wrote
But know the realest n*gga wrote this
And signed it, and sealed it in a envelope
And knew one day you'd find it
And knew one day you'd come back
And rewind this, singing...
I'm a born sinner
But I'll die better than that; swear.
You were always where I needed you to be
Whether you were there or not there (I was there)
I was born sinning but I live better than that
(better than that, better than that)
And if you ain't f*cking with that, I don't care.
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, this music **** is a gift
But God help us make it cause
This music business is a cliff
I got a life in my grip
She holding tight to my wrist
She screaming: "Don't let me slip"
She see the tears in my eyes
I see the fear on her lips
True when I told you, you the only reason why
I don't flip and go insane
My roof in the pouring rain
You knew me before the fame
Don't lose me the more I change, no
Just grow with me, go broke you go broke with me
I smoke you gon' smoke with me
Woman's curse since birth
Man lead her to the hearse
I go Bobby you go with me damn
Listen here, I'll tell you my biggest fears
You the only one who knows them
Don't you ever go expose them
This life is harder than you'll probably ever know
Emotions I hardly ever show
More for you than for me
Don't you worry yourself
I gotta do this for me
They tell me life is a test but where's a tutor for me
Pops came late I'm already stuck in my ways
Ducking calls from my mother for days
Sometimes she hate the way she raised me
But she love what she raised
Can't wait to hand her these house keys
With nothing to say
I'm a born sinner
But I'll die better than that; swear.
You were always where I needed you to be
Whether you were there or not there (I was there)
I was born sinning but I live better than that
(better than that, better than that)
And if you ain't f*cking with that, I don't care.
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm a born sinner
But I'll die better than that; swear.
You were always where I needed you to be
Whether you were there or not there (I was there)
I was born sinning but I live better than that
(better than that, better than that)
And if you ain't f*cking with that, I don't care.
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
