J. Cole - Farewell lyrics

Yeah, farewell Hey, farewell Alllmy n***as farewell Fayettenam Look, some n***as let there dirt out, Some n***as keep it all in 'em So when a man dies all his secrets go with him And fame a part of history no longer known Done did a lot of dirt I'll bury with me when I'm gone When my story's told, how will they tell it? Will they say I was a giver or remember I was selfish Will they say I was a sinner or pretend I was a saint Will I go down as a winner, what's the picture they gon paint Wouldn't say that I'm a quitter that's one thing I know I ain't ain't Will they tarnish, will they taint? Glorify me, overthink, say they know me, say I'm great Say I'm phoney, I was fake Say the things about me that they never told me to my face I was loved I was hated Just a n***a with a dream I'm a liar I was honest, I was all of these things When I'm gone let em talk They discussing who I am When they bury me just know I was nothing but a man Wasn't nothin' but a man This for n***as climbin' heavens stairwell Yeah, hey farewell Yeh, hey farewell This for n***as climbin' heavens stairwell I pray you farewell I bid you farewell Yeah, ey, farewell Yeah, yeah If I should die Lord this here is my will Reincarnate a n***a send me right back to the Ville Let me relive my younger days just once again Reenact my memories from every friend to every sin Keeping demons buried in my closet But yet I put in work like a deposit on my bank account My eyes lit while I think about my childhood now I'm blanking out Those were truly my best days The only thing I had to stress was how the hell to get laid Gradually turn into me stressin' how the hell to get paid Been making songs so long, now how the hell they get played Ok, I'm blowing up quickly I guess the flow is sickly But yet I can't forget my past and hope it won't forget me Got good grades but age can't stop strays so pray for me Pour liquor for my n***as but hey, don't wait for me Cause I'm trying to cheat d**h, she had to bury my a** You know the cliche "lifes a b**h" well I'm gon marry that a** And sign a pre-nup Think back to when we tore the skating rink up Rapping and we scrapping, we got older hit the teen club Gave mean mugs to n***as but we winked to all the girls Then we went back to the crib thinking we had saw the World No sir, came a long way from having mom chauffer It's hard to think these hoes at some point were so pure But now we play the game, when it's over send me back I swear I'm not gon change a thing I swear I'm not gon change a thing
