Pass Me By - J. Cole
Yeah
Yeah
Dear Mrs. Bill Collector
I know you just doing your job don't mean to disrespect ya
But weve been going through this thang since way back
I told you when I get the dough I would pay back
But I got problems baby yeah if you only knew
I got bigger problems baby yeah
So why you talking about the money that I owe
Like as if I didn't know man
It don't mean nothing to me
Cause right now I got my lil boy crying and my grandmother dying
Could you please stop f**kin' with me
Listen here I ain't looking for no tears but my brother got a year
And my momma keep smoking that sh*t
On top of that I'm broke please put that in your notes
For the next one to call me up talking that sh*t
So life don't pass me by
Cause sometimes it'll leave you stuck don't ask me why
Gotta keep this trailer moving no time to cry cry
So lonely days I say goodbye bye
Gotta live for today so life won't pass me by
Cause sometimes it'll leave you stuck don't ask me why why
Gotta keep this trailer moving no time to cry cry
So lonely days I say goodbye bye
Gotta live for today so life won't pass me by
Hey, Dear Mr. Policeman
Hey am I wrong ain't you suppose to keep the peace man
I coulda swore I was driving pretty peaceful
So why the hell is you pullin' over me for
Is it this black Mercedez
Oh now I get it I get it I get it
Or cause I'm black hmmm maybe
Hey tell me why my hands start sweatin'
And I hold my breath everytime that you get behind me
I turn my music down so you won't hear a sound
Man I'm nervous like I got a couple pounds on me
You pulled me over you frown on me
With your flashlight tell me what do you see
Thug niggas ** dealers it's a trip
Every ni**a in this whip got a motherf**kin' college degree
So life don't pass me by
Cause sometimes it'll leave you stuck don't ask me why why
Gotta keep this trailer moving no time to cry cry
So lonely days I say goodbye bye
Gotta live for today so life won't pass me by
Cause sometimes it'll leave you stuck don't ask me why why
Gotta keep this trailer moving no time to cry cry
So lonely days I say goodbye bye
Gotta live for today
Yeah my middle finger to the law bustin' off tryna touch the sky
My teacher said impossible but I'mma f**kin' try
Plus how he gon tell me he don't make the rules
Theres niggas dying everyday but we don't make the news
Instead they talking about some thunderstorm cyclones
Timmy got his bike stole top story tiger woods
Be f**kin' all these white hoes
Anchorman stop snitchin'
Cut the commercial he be texting all the side b**ches hey my goodness
How ironic on trial for possession of some chronic
My lawyer came to court man he was higher than the comet
Hey your honor is you kidding how you sit above me
Are you perfect motherf**ker how you finna judge me
When you home you don't cuss drink and puff like us
These cops is bad boys baby just like puff
They hate they jobs and they days be f**ked up like us
At the end of the day you niggas just like us
So life don't pass me by
