[Verse 1: J Cole]
2
Yeah grew up with killers, I didn't know they was killers
3
We was just together man, playing mega-man on sega man
4
Your mama loved me to death, she reminded me of Afeni
5
Yeah real black queen
6
If I had a genie, I wish that she ain't struggle no more
7
Yall wouldn't have to go to sleep with all the roaches if she wasn't so poor
8
You told me when you came to my house
9
This shit was like a timeout from reality
10
One night you asked me what I'm crying about
11
'Cuz you was staying over for the weekend
12
I woke up from out my sleep
13
When I heard mama and my stepfather beefin'
14
I don't know if he been drinkin'
15
But I know this shit got loud and I heard rumbling from struggling
16
And rolling on the ground
17
Could never get used to that sound
18
My mama saying get off me
19
My tears is tumbling now
20
I wish that you never saw me
21
'Cuz I, felt like a coward, so powerless I was only 12
22
I wish I would'be bust through that door my fucking self
23
And grab the Glock right off the fucking shelf
24
If nothing else scared a nigga shitless
25
There goes two of my wishes
26
Forever scarred, determined to get some heart
27
No matter how big the nigga, no matter how small you are
28
Fast-forward to our older years
29
Two different paths
30
You used to talk to me about college but that shit didn't last
31
Waste of potential, getting cash, what could I say?
32
So tired of not having things, you never see it my way
33
Too proud to fold
34
You're demise
35
One day to my surprise, my nigga called me, told me you just caught a body twice your size
36
I asked if it was self defense, he said it was defense of pride
37
And that they trying to give you ten, but if you lucky you'll do five damn
38
Not my nigga
39
The same one that told me that things always get better
40
Just trust me, don't cry my nigga
41
The news call him a killa, but he my nigga
42
Sad shit
43
Ay yo genie last wish, free my nigga
