[00:01.09]Born Sinner - J. Cole James Fauntleroy
[00:22.18]Spinning in circles, live my life without rehearsal
[00:26.67]If I die today my n*gga was it business?
[00:29.34]Was it personal?
[00:30.29]Should this be my last breath
[00:31.76]I'm blessed cause it was purposeful
[00:33.12]Never got to church to worship Lord
[00:34.68]But please be merciful
[00:36.15]You made me versatile, well-rounded like cursive
[00:38.91]Now you chose me for a purpose
[00:40.35]I put my soul in these verses
[00:42.03]Born sinner, was never born to be perfect
[00:44.94]Sucka for women licking their lips
[00:47.08]And holding these purses
[00:48.37]Back when we ran the streets
[00:49.79]Who would think we grow to be murderers
[00:51.13]Teachers treated n*ggas as
[00:52.84]If they totally worthless
[00:54.35]And violent, and hopeless
[00:55.86]I saw but never noticed that the
[00:57.42]College point is right to
[00:58.85]"Be All That You Can Be" posters
[01:00.39]Rest in peace to Tiffany
[01:02.34]I don't know if this is the realest **** I wrote
[01:04.80]But know the realest n*gga wrote this
[01:06.55]And signed it, and sealed it in a envelope
[01:08.73]And knew one day you'd find it
[01:10.77]And knew one day you'd come back
[01:11.98]And rewind this, singing...
[01:12.93]I'm a born sinner
[01:14.12]But I'll die better than that; swear.
[01:17.64]You were always where I needed you to be
[01:20.66]Whether you were there or not there (I was there)
[01:23.94]I was born sinning but I live better than that
[01:27.95](better than that, better than that)
[01:29.66]And if you ain't f*cking with that, I don't care.
[01:32.65](Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[01:36.58]Yeah, this music **** is a gift
[01:38.64]But God help us make it cause
[01:40.88]This music business is a cliff
[01:42.17]I got a life in my grip
[01:43.23]She holding tight to my wrist
[01:45.09]She screaming: "Don't let me slip"
[01:46.34]She see the tears in my eyes
[01:47.99]I see the fear on her lips
[01:49.18]True when I told you, you the only reason why
[01:51.66]I don't flip and go insane
[01:52.89]My roof in the pouring rain
[01:55.24]You knew me before the fame
[01:56.61]Don't lose me the more I change, no
[01:58.10]Just grow with me, go broke you go broke with me
[02:01.18]I smoke you gon' smoke with me
[02:02.53]Woman's curse since birth
[02:04.15]Man lead her to the hearse
[02:05.67]I go Bobby you go with me damn
[02:07.17]Listen here, I'll tell you my biggest fears
[02:10.31]You the only one who knows them
[02:11.79]Don't you ever go expose them
[02:13.52]This life is harder than you'll probably ever know
[02:16.00]Emotions I hardly ever show
[02:17.88]More for you than for me
[02:19.91]Don't you worry yourself
[02:21.46]I gotta do this for me
[02:22.90]They tell me life is a test but where's a tutor for me
[02:25.18]Pops came late I'm already stuck in my ways
[02:28.54]Ducking calls from my mother for days
[02:31.34]Sometimes she hate the way she raised me
[02:33.53]But she love what she raised
[02:34.65]Can't wait to hand her these house keys
[02:36.09]With nothing to say
[02:37.40]I'm a born sinner
[02:39.17]But I'll die better than that; swear.
[02:42.63]You were always where I needed you to be
[02:46.04]Whether you were there or not there (I was there)
[02:48.78]I was born sinning but I live better than that
[02:53.10](better than that, better than that)
[02:54.68]And if you ain't f*cking with that, I don't care.
[02:58.07](Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[03:01.89]I'm a born sinner
[03:03.38]But I'll die better than that; swear.
[03:07.03]You were always where I needed you to be
[03:09.67]Whether you were there or not there (I was there)
[03:13.44]I was born sinning but I live better than that
[03:17.33](better than that, better than that)
[03:19.08]And if you ain't f*cking with that, I don't care.
[03:23.07](Yeah, yeah, yeah)
