J. Cole - Show Me Somethin' lyrics

[Intro] Uh yea, yea, yea, yea, yea [Hook] What am I here for? I'm a man so I cannot let them tears fall But understand trynna get my head clear ya'll This sh** is on my mind Asking for the lord to show me all my signs Show me something Cause I'm trynna find something I'm lost can you show me something I'm lost can you show me something [Verse 1] I sit and reminisce on them n***as no longer here And how I used to hit the mall and ya was always there I sit and think how I didn't grow up with my father there No need to cry cause it only made me stronger yea I watched my brother get in trouble with the law and yea That sh** cut me like I was sitting in a barber chair Cause I don't want to see them locked up in them bars in there And I don't want to see him stretched out in a coffin yea I'm wishing I can move my momma out so far from here I know that she deserve much better and she worked hard as hell That's why you never see me settle cause they want us here I'm trynna side step the devil but he heartless yea But just know that I'm a rebel and yo it's almost here I'm talking bout the revolution I am Paul Revere So dry your eyes momma please you can pause them tears Cause I promise I'm gon get us outta here I'm gon get us outta here [Hook] What am I here for? I'm a man so I cannot let them tears fall? But understand trynna get my head clear ya'll this sh** is on my mind Asking for the lord to show me all my signs Show me something Cause I'm trynna find something I'm lost can u show me something I'm lost can you show me something [Verse 2] I swear I'm praying for my n***as when I say grace I know them n***as don't care who they hit they spray strays But lord please protect my family cause if they graze n***as is loading up that ammi and them A-K's I know it's wrong and that revenge is all in your hands But last night I heard they robbed and k**ed an old man Now if they cold enough to take a life that's innocent I know that they could give a f** whether I live and sh** And so I'm asking you if you can hold me down lord Be my umbrella-ella-ella in this downpour I know you never ever ever let me drown or Won't let that devil ever ever win this round naw And though I stray for you, you know that my heart is good And I know I ain't exactly living how I probly should And I'm a try to act better like it's Hollywood n***as congratulate me I just tell them God is good God is good [Hook] [Verse 3] Yea, huh, yea my n***as drug dealing in the trap I'm tellin you wake up n***a it's a trap You set up and to them young mothers fed up Just keep your head up Don't let up You fall you get up You make your bed up that you sleep in Fake rappers ain't practicing what dey preaching Hey tell you hit the trap while they relaxing on the beach and I'm here to spit the facts A n***a backflipped off the deep end I smell this sh** for what it is Not kells but I love the kids And so I make the song to let em know that they important Cause them racist teachers couldn't give a f** bout wat they score is So they try to get them hands up on them Grants like Horace Now slanging for you knoe it cops is knocking they got warrants Damn!, uh, and how he running for it Damn!, yea and now the cops is running for him damn! And now he finally slowing down Hands behind your head, lay down on the ground, n***a [Hook]
