Below, you will find the lyrics for Show Me Something by J. Cole.
What am i here for?
I'm a man so i cannot let them tears fall?
But understand tryna get my head clear ya'll
This shit is on my mind
Asking for the lord to show me all my signs
Show me something
Cause i'm trynna find something
I'm lost can you show me something
I'm lost can you show me something, yeah
I sit and reminisce on them niggas no longer here
And how i used to hit the mall and ya'll was always there
I sit and think how i didn't grow up with my father there
No need to to cry cause it only made me stronger
I watch my brother get in trouble with the law and
That shit cut me like i was sitting in a barber chair
Cause i don't wanna see them locked up in them bars in there
And i don't wanna see him stretched out in a coffin
I'm wishing i can move my momma out so far from here
I know that she deserve much better and she worked hard as hell
That's why you never see me settle cause they want us here
I'm trynna side step the devil but he heartless
But just know that i'm a rebel and yo it's almost here
I'm talking bout the revolution i am paul revere
So dry your eyes, momma please you can pause them tears
Cause i promise i'm gon get us outta here
I'm gonna get us outta here
What am i here for?
I'm a man so i cannot let them tears fall?
But understand tryna get my head clear ya'll
This shit is on my mind
Asking for the lord to show me all my signs
Show me something
Cause i'm trynna find something
I'm lost can you show me something
I'm lost can you show me something, yeah
I swear i'm praying for my niggas when i say grace
I know them niggas don't care who they hit they spray strays
But lord please protect my family cause if they graze
Niggas is loading up that ammi and them a-k's
I know it's wrong and that revenge is all in yo' hands
But last night i heard they robbed and killed a old man
Now if they cold enough to take a life that's innocent
I know that they could give a fuck whether i live and shit
And so i'm asking you if you can hold me down lord
Be my umbrella-ella-ella in this down pour
I knoe you never-ever-ever let me drown or
Won't let that devil-evil-evil win this round naw
And though i stray from you, you know that my heart is good
And i know i ain't exactly living how i probly should
And i'm a try to act better like it's hollywood
Niggas congratulate me i just tell 'em god is good
God is good
What am i here for?
I'm a man so i cannot let them tears fall?
But understand tryna get my head clear ya'll
This shit is on my mind
Asking for the lord to show me all my signs
Show me something
Cause i'm trynna find something
I'm lost can you show me something
I'm lost can you show me something, yeah
My niggas drug dealing in the trap
I'm tellin you wake up nigga it's a trap, you set up
And to them young mothers fed up, just keep your head up
Don't let up, you fall you get up
You make your bed up that you sleep in
Fake rappers ain't practicing what they preaching
They tell you hit the trap while they relaxing on the beach and
I'm here to spit the facts, a nigga backflipped off the deep end
And smell this shit for what it is
Not kells but i love the kids
And so i make the song to let 'em know that they important
Cause them racist teachers could'nt give a fuck bout what they score is
So they try to get them hands up on them grants like horace
Now they slanging 'for you know it cops is knocking they got warrants, damn!
And now he running for it, damn!
And now the cops is running for him damn!
And now he finally slowing down
Hands behind your head, lay down on the ground, nigga
What am i here for?
I'm a man so i cannot let them tears fall?
But understand tryna get my head clear ya'll
This shit is on my mind
Asking for the lord to show me all my signs
Show me something
Cause i'm trynna find something
I'm lost can you show me something
I'm lost can you show me something, yeah
