J. Cole - Zendaya lyrics

[Intro: J. Cole] Yeah Check [Chorus: J. Cole] How else I make it this far How else I make it this far How else I make it this far How else I make it this far [Verse 1: J. Cole] Listen, music my flesh and blood It's been my only love since ye high I used to play Jay high and Ye high Thinking one day I would go from fan to f**in player I guess I found a way huh My n***a Cozz wants Zendaya A side note, I'm rooting for you I use these bars and start recruiting for you But treat her right And just remember on your lonely nights this mic will be your friend You tell it all your secrets that you keeping deep within Your fantasies, regrets, your happy moments and your sins And if he doesn't comprehend at least he can pretend Let's begin to be the men we never seen In the 80's they smoke crack but now today they sippin' lean And poppin' Xannies f** n***as runnin' from their families The streets don't give a f** about the Grammys Wish I could talk to granny, wish I could smoke in peace But when it hit the blunt lately my mind it tortures me Everything ain't supposed to be, apparently I take it as a sign and stick the sh** that's steering me In the direction of some clarity This music is my therapy I thank the Lord cause he care for me [Chorus: J. Cole & Cozz] How else I make it this far How else I make it this far How else I make it this far How else I make it this far How else I make it this far How else I make it this far You know I gotta thank God How else I make it this far, far [Verse 2: Cozz] Music is my soul and fuel I guess it only saves a chosen few From going to school or selling dope, crazy Back in school I was bumping Cole daily Now I'm writing rhymes in the notebook that Cole gave me And bro you so crazy, but all I can do is thank you You threw your boy a lob, and sh**, I ain't even say to But f** it all that sh** he stay true Cause you a dime, I'm sure you hear that every day Cool so look f** being fine cause I know you got a brain too And sh**, let me not get my plate full You know your brain moves A little different when you haven't ate food So I'mma leave it up to fate to make these decisions And stick to my intentions I did it for more of the pa**ion, not the great checks Knowing that there's more than fat a**es and great s** Tryna be the man I ain't yet But demons stuck on me like ashes on gray sweats Cause man I ain't made sh** and I'm lacking the patience It's a battle to take in the fact that I ain't win, yet What am I saying again, I can't go play and win I travel and take trips I look to God then I thank him [Chorus: Cozz] How else I make it this far How else I make it this far How else I make it this far How else I make it this far Yeah, how else I make it this far How else I make it this far You know I gotta thank God How else I make it this far, far [Verse 3: Cozz] Look I ain't got money to blow but I'm getting there dawg Can't get momma a home but I'm getting there y'all Won't reach the end of the road just sittin' there dawg How you gon' learn to grow if you ain't listening y'all? Look, I'm still a student of the game but I been through some things And I could school you rather say don't be clueless in the brain You gotta learn to fly before you cruising with the planes And you could be a boss, just gotta do it in your lane Choosing and choose to pray instead of choosing to pray To use and abuse for pay You doing it for the love or you doing it to get praised? What would you do for fame if it was family or money? They probably lose you today Probably buy a car and try and coup with the pain Sometimes homies and hoes is truly the same Try and screw you for change Yeah it's truly a shame But somehow I seem to see the beauty in the rain I made it this far
