Текст песни Keep Heaven Dancing - J. Cole

Yeah
Ayy, today my mom's birthday
Man (Lala-la-la)
I don't know, I think she's fifty—
I think she's fifty-three
If I do the math right (Yeah)

Feeling rather uninspired
Feeling rather un-admired
Come on, baby
Won't you love me?
Never put a soul above me
Don't you see, I'm special, darling?
Tell me why then aren't you calling?
Could it be you found another?
You forgotten how I loved ya
One day, you'll see that you've made
A Terrible mistake and pray to
God above for second chances
My rhythms will keep heaven dancin'
Keep heaven dancin'
Keep heaven dancin'

I'm a chip off my old block
Where they hold Glocks
In '92, they smoke rocks
Now I hope not
I wouldn't know 'cause we got out of there
I miss Aiesha, had the caramel features
And a lot of hair
Sometimes, I wonder where she at now
Imagining the way she look
And how she act now
Did the hood get her?
Have a baby by a hood nigga
Give ya two good guesses where he at now
But, you never know maybe she overcame
I mean just think about
How far that lady Oprah came
From humble beginnings to hugging a billion
But that's one in a million
If ya from where I'm feeling
Nostalgic about hardest nigga out of the south
Though I was feeling claustrophobic
And I had to get out
'Cause while I ain't a street nigga
Ain't pretend to be
The Ville was killing niggas
Mo' innocent than me
Smart niggas went to college in attempts to flee
Friends stay singing hating penitentiary
And that's life in a nutshell
I heard a couple dumb niggas say they love jail
I feel for 'em 'cause that's real for 'em
Less hope than a stillborn
Cole world but can feel warm
Though, sometimes play a song
That can bring sunshine
That's why I don't really give a fuck
About punchlines
I just be writing, not to enlighten
To release
At night, a little Henny
And some head can bring me peace
If only I could get away with murder like police
It'd be a couple niggas that's deceased
Now rest in peace

Feeling rather uninspired
Feeling rather un-admired
Come on, baby, won't you love me?
Never put a soul above me
Don't you see, I'm special, darling?
Tell me why then aren't you calling?
Could it be you found another?
You forgotten how I loved ya
One day, you'll see that you've made a
Terrible mistake and pray to
God above for second chances
My rhythms will keep heaven dancin'
Keep heaven dancin'
Keep heaven dancin'

All you niggas rap on the same beats
Make me want to hit Dame Grease
And get one of them joints X passed on
Make some shit that I can hear Flex blast on
For your whip let your foot press gas on
'Cause it seems hits is how the best last long
So I ask God for my next smash song
All he sent is my next sad song
Full of private thoughts
For a minor cost you could tresspass on
It's from the heart like a chest pass homes
My nigga was in prison and he just got home
He blowin' up my cell, did four years in jail
And I never sent no mail
And I guess that's wrong
But if he really knew me then he'd understand
A week out and already got a gun in hand
Yes, it's true what they say
Only God can judge
But the catch is, He never does
He know exactly why my nigga stressed
Unhappy, high
Thinking, "How did four years just pass me by?"
Can't get a job
But the streets showed me how
Niggas I was cool with ain't my homies now
My own daughter act like
She don't barely know me now
Baby mama promise me
That she would hold me down
The bitch promised that she would hold me down
It was lonely in a cell
And it's lonely now, sing

Feeling rather uninspired (Sing)
Feeling rather un-admired (Sing)
Come on, baby
Won't you love me? (Sing)
Never put a soul above me (Sing)
Don't you see, I'm special, darling?
Tell me why then aren't you calling?
Could it be you found another?
You forgotten how I loved ya
One day, you'll see that
You've made a
Terrible mistake and pray to
God above for second chances
My rhythms will keep heaven dancin'
Keep heaven dancin'
Keep heaven dancin'
