2010s Adolescence (J. COLE REMIX)
[Intro]
Yeah just let it rock, ay
Check this right now, yeah, feel that, yeah, ay, I say
2010s adolescence
Come along on this journey let’s talk about the present, look

[Verse]
Now what you heard bout me is true
Menace to society, I’m lightly speaking truth
So quietly speaking so privately while brightly peeking through
All of these adolescent drug segments, future sobriety
Hopefully, you never know your future till you live it
But there is people right now doing shit that will kill it
I ain’t a snitch but I’ve seen deals from afar
You can tell he self medicating, toiletries in the car
Spoiling the immune until you in a coffin soon
Momma’s crying? nah, she kicked his sorry ass out in June, huh
That is a tuff situation, triggered an activation
Like Call of Duty but this is Chemical Warfare
Fascination, explore there
Calculation, there’s more there, huh
But that’s a topic someone like me doesn’t have the knowledge
It’s microscopic in my household but to my own logic
It’s deeply routed in these streets, no Ancestry
There was one point in my life where it just made a grand entry
Not to me but to my closest like Tre from the hood
Watching my closest friends treat they brains with some good
Blocking the lowest ends of they pain like it’s Bucky
Not everyone is lucky to have a Cap by they side
They say “rest my homie” but they never stopped him when he’s fried as fuck
[Chorus]
Things change, rearrange and so do I (Who am I?)
It ain't always for the better, dawg, I can't lie (2010s)
(Yeah) I get high 'cause the lows can be so cold
I might bend a little bit but I don't fold (Barry Pablo)
One time for my mind and two for yours (Mr. 90210)
I got food for your thoughts to soothe your soul
If you see my tears fall, just let me be
Move along, nothing to see
