Written by:J. Cole[00:00:00]
Lotta sh*t happens like being in show business[00:00:01]
A lot of sh*t happens like like[00:00:02]
I make a lot of money you know[00:00:04]

Them n**gas tryna blow they don't need me for that[00:00:57]
And if it work for them well sh*t I'm cool with that[00:01:00]
'Cause how they feel I ain't got sh*t to do with that[00:01:03]
I just sit back on cool and watch my paper stack[00:01:06]
And trip off how much bread them crackers take from that[00:01:09]

Whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah yeah[00:01:23]
Whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah yeah[00:01:30]
It's been a long time since I have felt this way[00:01:36]
About something but now but now[00:01:40]
I'm controlling my mind the days are warm[00:01:48]
The nights are cold the lost is found I'm found[00:01:51]
Lord knows I need something to fill this void[00:02:00]
Lord knows I need something to fill this void[00:02:06]
Lord knows I need something to fill this void[00:02:12]
Lord knows I need something to fill this void[00:02:18]

Yeah I pay taxes so much taxes sh*t don't make sense[00:03:11]
Where do my dollars go[00:03:14]
You see lately I ain't been convinced[00:03:16]
I guess they say my dollars supposed to build roads and schools[00:03:17]
But my n**gas barely graduate they ain't got the tools[00:03:21]
Maybe 'cause the tax dollars that I make sure I send[00:03:24]
Get spent hirin' some teachers that don't look like them[00:03:27]
And the curriculum be tricking them them dollars I spend[00:03:29]
Got us learning about the heroes with the whitest of skin[00:03:33]
One thing about the men that's controlling the pen[00:03:36]
That write history they always seem to white out they sins[00:03:39]
Maybe we'll never see a black man in the White House again[00:03:42]
I'll write a check to the IRS my pockets get slim[00:03:45]
D**n do I even have a say 'bout where it's goin'[00:03:48]
Some older n**ga told me to start votin'[00:03:52]
I said[00:03:54]
Democracy is too f**kin' slow[00:03:55]
If I'm givin' y'all this hard earned bread I wanna know[00:03:57]
Better yet let me decide b**ch it's 2018[00:04:00]
Let me pick the things I'm funding from an app on my screen[00:04:03]
Better that than letting wack congressman I've never seen[00:04:05]
Dictate where my money go straight into the palms of some Money hungry company[00:04:09]
That make guns that circulate the country[00:04:13]
And then wind up in my hood making bloody clothes[00:04:15]
Stray bullet hit a young boy with a snotty nose[00:04:18]
From the concrete he was prolly rose[00:04:21]
Now his body froze and nobody knows what to tell his mother[00:04:23]
He did good at the white man schools unlike his brother[00:04:27]
Who was lost in the streets all day not using rubbers[00:04:30]
So right now he got two on the way[00:04:32]
Still sleep on covers in his mama house[00:04:35]
She can't take this sh*t no more she want him out[00:04:37]
On the morning of the funeral just as she's walking out[00:04:39]
Wiping tears away grabbing her keys and sunglasses[00:04:42]
She remember that she gotta file her taxes d**n[00:04:45]
Whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah yeah[00:04:48]
Whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah yeah[00:04:54]
Whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah yeah[00:05:00]
Whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah yeah[00:05:06]
