legacy with pj

J. Cole

Rollin around in Lincoln Town Cars, on our way to the stop
Passin the bottle
We shouldn t have found a way to make time stop
Intoxicated, ridin with gangsters
With they hammers on cocked
Infatuated cause I know deep down
That they everything that I m not

I know you got a lot of demons cloggin up your past
I can do some cleanin up for you, but I know we won t last
Pass the Winter time cause Summer s comin
And a nigga tryin to hit a dime or two
But come next Fall
I m findin you and we can do it all again
My niggas call it legacy
I fear that the best days I ve had are not ahead of me
And cause of that
I m searchin for the one that got away from me
So busy looking back
That I can t see what God has made for me

And I be texting you, texting you
I m tryna find the one who got away from me
Yeah, I m still texting you, texting you (Hey)
I m tryna find the one who got away

Commitment issues, I can t even decide what s for dinner
Pardon these selfish flows, I need a Yelp for hoes
I need to read reviews
Cause some of the evil I see you do is unbelievable
Menopause shit, inconceivable
Tennis ball shit
Causin that racket outside my momma house
What s it all about?
Guess it s a thin line between love and hate
The love we make is temporary
Like this lovely place I m livin in
Wait, that s contemporary, never mind I m trippin-in
But then again, it s hard to settle in this modern era
We could be as tight as that dress you barely fittin in
But my fear of missin out has got me on a trip again
Ride up to that A-Town, that A-Town
Tour bus, no Greyhound
My lust is profound
Your trust, just pray sound
Your heart don t glue back quite right
My heart is too black like white flight
That push them people to the suburbs
Now they want they city back
So they raised the rent and the property tax
Why I feel like in a few years I ll relate to that?
Knowin that I let you go and regrettin that fact
Cause I done spent so long playin games and holdin back
From givin all of me, too scared that I won t get it back
And yes, I m well aware I rhymed the word back with back
Cause that s exactly the direction
That I m tired of lookin at
And that s why I be

Texting you, texting you
I m tryna find the one who got away from me
Texting you, texting you (Hey)
I m tryna find the one who got away (Yeah)

Rollin around in Lincoln Town Cars on our way to the stop
Passin the bottle
We shouldn t have found a way to make time stop
Intoxicated, ridin with gangsters
With they hammers on cocked
I m infatuated cause I know deep down
That they everything I m not
And I m still texting you, texting you
(Girl, just hit me back when you get to your spot
No time for no arguing)
And I be texting you, texting you
Call me when you wanna fly, yeah, yeah, yeah
Tell you all the reasons why, yeah, yeah, yeah
Youngins turnin old, yeah, yeah, yeah
Summer s turnin into snow, yeah, yeah, yeah
Memories and lullabies, yeah, yeah, yeah
Floatin in the lonely sky, yeah, yeah, yeah
When the weather s gettin cold, yeah, yeah, yeah
You re the one I wanna hold, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Even back then, we knew what road to choose
It s been so much time and it s that much more to lose
Even back then, we knew what road to choose
It s been so much time and there s that much more to lose
