Cousins Lyrics - Truly Yours 2 - J. Cole

(1: Bas) 

They putting prices on heads, silver or lead 

I pray the scores settle 'fore the devil notice you dead 

Got me smoking the potent, my eyes open and Otis, they red 

Thoughts of my eye roam and words that I hoped I had said 

That aunty sippin on, we missin ya 

Even tho you gone, your thought alone can lift us up 

This is us 

Got some niggas that never call me unless they need something, 

But I pick up, like, "whassup, what you need cousin?" 

My niggas know that I love 'em 

Give 'em roses while they can smell 'em 

Cause ain't no tellin' who'll be here tomorrow 

Used to borrow your digital scale 

Flippin' them sales 

But now it's digital dash while you're still in the past 

Boy, trust me when I tell you, the picture got much bigger 

The swishers and dutch fill up 

Bitches in lust with us 

Momma would dissapprove, losing my way 

Lost in the sauce, this bolognese is so amazing 

Had a talk and she remark: "you so engaging" 

Running game, it's all the same 

I'm growing jaded 

Had a couple things in common, like Lonnie Lynn 

But I'm too faded for conversatin' 

I'm sittin' here contemplatin'... how to win

Slipping away, away 

Another day another love song, hey 

Another day another love song, hey 

Time keeps slipping away, away 

Another day another love song, hey 

Another day another love song, hey 

(2: J Cole) 

Yeah 

Cousin in jail again, asking me for bail again 

Close when I was 12, but I was much frailer then 

He was like 16, a nigga from the gutter and 

Years ago his favorite uncle had married my mother and 

Here we are, runnin' through the Ville like dumb and dumber and 

For that summer man I swear I wish you was my brother then 

But time passed and we fell off cause you moved back home 

Little did you know Jermaine done grew a new back bone 

Niggas thought he wouldn't make it 'till he proved that wrong 

12 years later on the radio that Who Dat song 

Your homeboy bumps the Warm Up now he buggin' 

Cause he looking at the cover and say "Damn yo that's my cousin" 

And niggas looking at you like you lying but you wasn't 

Next thing I know you blowing up my line all a sudden 

And I'm showing love saying "yo look what I did, 

Man nobody coming from here ever did this shit this big" 

But now you saying "Man enough about you, 

Shit what about me, my nigga what about me? 

Oh you forgot about me? 

Saying niggas showed you how to rap, now you don't know how to act 

Boy I'm at the bottom you could pull a nigga out of that 

Put me in a video, aye put me on your hottest track 

Bring me on the road with you, you know 'cuz got yo back 

And I'm strapped up if them niggas act up 

See you headed to the top you need to let me catch up 

Please let me catch up 

Won't you let me catch up man" 

I'll see you when I see you 

Harsh as it seems to say, I wouldn't want to be you 

Bail you out for your daughter and I pray to God 

A nigga never pull your card or she won't ever get to see you
