J. Cole - Crooked Smile (Feat. TLC)

I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know
I found my way back round
They tell me I should fix my
grill cause I got money now
I ain't gon' sit around and
front like I ain't thought about it
A perfect smile is more
appealing but it's funny how
My shit is crooked look at how
far I done got without it
I keep my twisted grill
just to show them kids it's real
We ain't picture perfect
but we worth the picture still
I got smart I got rich
and I got bitches still
And they all look like my
eyebrows thick as hell
Love yourself girl
or nobody will
Oh you a woman
I don't know how you deal
With all the pressure to look
impressive and go out in heels
I feel for you
Killing yourself to find a man
that'll kill for you
You wake up put makeup on
Stare in the mirror but its
clear that you can’t face
what’s wrong
No need to fix what God already
put his paint brush on
Your roommate yelling
Why you gotta take so long
What it's like to have
a crooked smile
I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know
I found my way back round
To all the women with the flaws
know it's hard my darling
You wonder why you're lonely
and your man's not calling
You keep falling victim cause
you're insecure
And when I tell you that you're
beautiful you can't be sure
Cause you see that no one wants
you back and it got you asking
So all you see is what you
lacking not what you packing
Take it from a man that loves
what you got
And baby girl you're a star
don't let 'em tell you you're not
Now is it real Eyebrows
fingernails hair
Is it real if it's not
girl you don't care
Cause what's real is something
that the eyes can't see
That the hands can’t touch
that them broads can’t be
and that’s you
Never let 'em see you frown
And if you need a friend
to pick you up I’ll be around
And we can ride with the windows
down the music loud
I can tell you ain’t laughed
in a while
But I wanna see that crooked smile
I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know
I found my way back round
Crooked smile
we could style on 'em
Crooked smile
we could style on 'em
You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know
I found my way back round
We don't look nothing
like the people on the screen
You know them movie stars
picture perfect beauty queens
But we got dreams and
we got the right to chase ‘em
Look at the nation that’s
a crooked smile braces
couldn’t even straighten
Seem like half the race is
either on probation or in jail
Wonder why we inhale
cause we in hell already
I asked if my skin pale
would I then sell like
Eminem or Adele
Yo one more time for the 'Ville
And fuck all of that beef shit
nigga let’s make a mil
Hey officer man we don’t want
nobody getting killed
Just open up that cell
let my brother out of jail
I got money for the bail now
well now
If you asking will I tell now
Hell naw
I ain’t snitching cause
Man they get them niggas
stitches now
If you was around then you
wouldn’t need a witness now
How you like this crooked smile
I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know
I found my way back round
Crooked smile
we could style on 'em
Crooked smile
we could style on 'em
You're the one that was trying

But like the sun know you know

I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know
I found my way back round
I'm on my way I'm on my way
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way I'm on my way
