[Verse 1 - J Cole]
16
Yeah, this is the Ville, home of the fast-lifers
17
Where we get high and don't come down, we gas righteous
18
Man, I wonder how hard to live my past life was
19
Cause this one hard, I could show you my scars
20
I ain't crying tho...
21
Then save that pity for the next man
22
Or that girl getting beat down by her ex-man
23
Hey, hold your head, mama
24
I know you wish that nigga dead, mama
25
If I can find a way to kill him, I won't have any drama
26
Damn mama, tell me who you love
27
This one is for the boy that sees his mama on drugs
28
I feel your pain, boy and just know that I been through the same, boy
29
That lady needs you more than ever
30
Don't be ashamed boy
31
Cause when it rained, boy, that was your umbrella
32
The one that changed your pissy sheets when you was a young fella
33
And now she in the bedroom on her knees
34
Staring at the sky, screaming "Lord please!"
35
Tell me now
36
[Hook - J Cole]

[Verse 2:]
46
Soon as you cling on, my mind's saying "be gone!"
47
I leave em with wrinkled foreheads, they now Klingons
48
Confused, cause friendship's abuse and I'm sorry for it
49
My life performance been trifling, some nights I fight my conscience?
50
Was never given space, but I always heared the heart
51
Always miss playing the hand that was dealt the joker cards
52
It's what I was feeling like, lonely low energy
53
Fallin slow clinically, ballin' over we finna be
54
Don't pity me ever, even when them haters answering
55
Mindstate of the victim, no victim, I'm just a champion
56
Money come in slow, God, intervene
57
Spirit's never broken, I'm just focused, don't pity me
58
No no no, you see this pain put a strain on my whole life
59
I seen the rain, seen my dreams turn to long nights
60
But all I ask is don't pity me, no, no!
61
Don't pity me, no, no, no!
62
[Hook - J Cole]

71
I can't cry about it
72
Nah, nah, be strong
73
Can't cry about it
74
Hey
75
[Verse 3:]
76
I freestyle life, can barely write the rent
77
Yearly income can barely keep this music life in check
78
Call up mama, hate to borrow money, with Christmas near
79
Hey you know what? How about we make each other gifts this year
80
Friends are calling me up, asking me if I'm signed yet
81
Who I'm working with? Am I making dollar signs yet?
82
Disappointment within their voices, do they pity me?
83
Disbelief, I'ma stay driven like them city streets
84
But ah, it seems like every day is rainy weather
85
Can barely fit my pain and poverty the same umbrella
86
But he don't care, he don't care, it's hard to keep em dry
87
No more caterpillar, now you see him change: peeping Tom
88
This life'll flash before your eyes
89
So get your match before your fire turns to ash
90
No more drive, no more gas, before you cry, get your last
91
Before you die, life your past with no regrets
92
Broken X, no looking back man
93
[Hook - J Cole]
