J Cole - Honestly Speaking Lyrics

[Intro]
This Honestly Speaking mayne
This how I feel (yeah), look

[Verse 1]
When my ex look at me, all she can do is smile
Cause all she see is greatness when she looking at me now
Just wishing she could go back, looking at all the Kodaks
But she know I'm moving on and her ass is just a throwback
Music all I'm focused on, tryna get my bread right
Kush all I'm blowin' on, just tryna get my head right
In the streets grindin' with me, tryna get it every night
Dodging the police, staying out of mind and out of sight
The 318 love me, they waiting on my music
Cause they know this lil nigga from Jonesboro finna do it
Just sit back, and take notes from a poet
You rip it, you sew it
I'm the hardest, can't ignore it
Tryna make it out the projects, and get my city poppin'
These niggas mad at me, but can't nobody stop me
Niggas dont want to admit it, but know that I'm the hottest
All the niggas steady doubt it, but the bitches know about me
It's death before dishonor
Loyal before royalty I keep it a hunnit
It's real niggas over here, there's way more than money
I'm the hottest lil nigga out of Louisiana
Not braggin' just being honest
Fuck all you niggas feelings, you losing, we winnin'
And we ain't even started yet, this is the beginnin'
I'm really from the streets, these niggas rapping just pretendin'
Flowin' like they hood, but really know they some bitches
Real recognize real, and I don't recognize you
But I bet all of you niggas gon' recognize Snupe
Real street niggas see me, all they do is salute
Cause they know these niggas lies, and they know I am the truth
Me and all my bad bitches kick it like we punt it
My chicks 'bout business, not the ones who be stuntin'
Them top notch chicks, not the ones that work at Sonic
I'm just laughing at you hoes cause minimum wage funny
I'm a true dream chaser, so I stay grindin'
I shine like a diamond, I guess it's just perfect timin'
People though I'd be in jail, or dead right now
But I'm rapping, dropping hits, chasing bread right now nigga
[Outro: DJ Ya Boy Earl]
And that's what ain't nobody gon' do better than us man, they not gon' out work us
Snupe, got North Louisiana on lock like a dark cell block, man
We gon' hold that down like a big girl with goodies, man
Ya Boy Earl, we in this thing man, Louisiana stand up, the whole state, lets go
