paroles de chanson a p p l y i n g . p r e s s u r e - J. Cole

Yeah (yeah)
Yeah, nigga (one two, one two, one)
The Off-Season (one two, one two, one two, one)
The Off-Season, nigga
We off of niggas (ayy, that′s right)
The fuck you talking bout? (That's right, ayy)
Off of niggas (yeah, ayy, yeah)
(Vocal up a little more, hey)
Uh, applying pressure
Started my grind with crime festers
And now it′s showing like they in they second trimester
That's why a nigga's throw a shot or two online
I pay no mind to their benign gestures
Nigga, please, I got my mind on much bigger things to say the least
My latest beat just sound
Like they was released by David East (what up East?)
Verses hit hard, never pitched hard or played the streets
These niggas whips are behind closed doors, can′t pay the lease, uh
Ain′t nothing wrong with living check to check
'Cause most have to (I ain′t saying that)
Instead of capping
Why don't you talk about being a broke rapper? (I ain′t saying that)
That's a perspective I respect because it′s real
What it's like to be nice as fuck, but got to stress to pay the bills
That was me in '08, seeing no cake
Not even on dates, I celebrated my birth
Just did the mental math and calculated my worth
Shit crazy, didn′t know I got more M′s
Than a real Slim Shady video (all I'm saying is)
Big Boss, less Rick Ross more like a wavy Hideo
Kojima, they tote steamers around the way we tippy-toe
′Round crack vials and cold-blooded killers, no reptiles
Just projectiles, from niggas salty you rocking the fresher textiles
I seen your best pals grow up and switch (I hate to see it)
Sometimes over a couple dollars, more often over a bitch
I can cap and say that I never scratched my jealousy's itch
But thank God I conquered that ′cause if not I'd never be rich
Envy, keep your pockets empty, so just focus on you
If you broke and clowning a millionaire, the joke is on you
Money ain′t everything, I never say that (never)
But niggas throw stones knowing they sell they soul
To get wherever they at (come on, man)
Just know these verses is some shit
They gon' forever play back, nigga (come on, nigga)
Hell yeah
Fuck, you know what it is nigga
Don't even dare
Niggas try and act like they a bitch
That′s why I gotta flex sometimes
′Cause niggas tryna act like you not that motherfucking nigga like
Like you just really don't do it how you do it
Like niggas will really try to act like you don′t really do what you do
Nigga look you dead in your face
And really act like you don't do it to the level that you do it
That′s why sometimes you gotta come through and just do it
At the level that you do it in front of every nigga face
So they know the difference between you
The real niggas, and the motherfucking fraudulent niggas, man
Don't never get it fucked up
If a nigga can′t do it like you do it sometimes
You gotta do it in front of his fucking face so he'll know forever
"Damn, that nigga did it how I always wanted to do it
And I'll never be able to do it like that"
Bitch, there′s a difference (ah)
These are the same ones telling our people
What we are and what we aren′t
Because we're just not working hard enough
And that mentality is what we′re up against today
But this is good to know because this time
When we march on the Capitol
You can go ahead and let 'em know long before we get there
We′re coming to get that check
