Lyrics

[Verse 1: J. Cole] Sunny days, rainy nights, I knowShe'll be there for me, no matter what If I miss your call, I'ma call backNever too far, no, I'm never too farBet wherever you are, that's where I'm at (Show me where you are) [Chorus: J. Cole] I don't ever want you to regret these movesSometimes the win is hidden in the lose I wish life was longer, like an interludeI got way more songs I wanna sing with you I thought I was strong 'til I saw what you went through The birth of my sons, and еach time, my mind was blownYeah, each timе, my mind was blown [Verse 2: J. Cole] I owe you patience and a lot of graceI owe you flowers and a Prada dateI owe you time watching movies that I hateI owe you chocolates and red velvet cake Oh, wait, you don't like red velvet no moreYeah, that's right, out of spite, hoes jealous of you Used to write about my life, but I ain't tellin' no moreStay the fuck up out my business Drop the triple-double last week at Lifetime Fitness Dishwasher broke, fingers wrinkled gettin' soakedWhat's the point of bein' rich if I gotta do the dishes? I give a fuck what niggas think about meI know they couldn't know a thing about me And my loyalty, she hold you downAnd you gotta move accordinglyI got a good one, she feel like royalty [Chorus: J. Cole] I don't ever want you to regret these movesSometimes the win is hidden in the lose I wish life was longer, like an interludeI got way more songs I wanna sing with you I thought I was strong 'til I saw what you went through The birth of my sons, and each time, my mind was blownYeah, each time, my mind was blown [Post-Chorus: J. Cole] Ooh Ooh [Verse 3: Burna Boy] Lonely nights with lots of moneyTimes I wish I had no moneyHow can I be sure you love me? It's not like you're betting your best years on meBest years on meBest years on me Do I like livin' like this?Maybe I'm fine wasting my timeBeautiful eyes washed down with wine (Mmh)Maybe it's time I accept my own Órí bákan-bákanÓrí bákan-bákan And it no easyBecause if true love for me today, then I'm comingMaybe it's time I accept you, ooh, ooh [Bridge: Burna Boy]Longing forMy baby to love me moreWhat am I longing for?I'm not really secureWhat am I longing for?My baby to love me moreWhat am I longing for?I'm not really secureWhen, when, when, whenCan we see each other again? Hey [Outro] Hey Pa, I've been checking you out from long distanceDigging your existence, can I offer my assistance?They say a dude is only as cool as his talk isBut I know that you real because your walk isYou got a beautiful smile, your heart's big as lifeAnd it's full of gold, though you pay a heavy priceNobody knows about the depression and the strifeAnd the fight to stand strong against women who enticeThey don't respect your call, they don't respect your wifeYou're tired, and you're weak, and you could blow it all tonight'Cause everybody thinks that you're a man of steelLike you don't hurt and you don't feel, but they wrongI swear I've watched you keep yourself far from the dramaTaking many hits to your armorI've seen you walk miles with the crowd, but alone, you walked fartherNow walk into the arms of your fatherAnd let him build you up and supply everythin' you've been needin'I'm here watching, and I'm interceding you gon' make it, Pa
