Yea...

Almost...

Almost...

Humph...

Damn...

Hey...

So here we are...

So here we are...

So here we are... It's funny how so close can seem so far...

Seem so far...

Seem so far...

Seem so far, funny how so close can seem so far I mean...

Nigga, this is your moment...

Damn, this is your moment...

Damn, this supposed to be your moment ain't it?

This supposed to be your moment...

This supposed to be your moment!

This supposed to be your moment

What good is being the one when you the only one that knows it...

[Verse 1. C. cole]

Partially functional, half of me is comfortable

The other half is close to the cliff like mrs huxtable

These boys got them hoslters and clips they pack like lunchables

Like white boys in grade school

While we ate school made food just

Eyeing they shit, wish I was trying they shit

Knowing when mama hit the store she wasn’t buying that shit

No I ain't crying a bit man

Thats just life thats how that shit work

You reach your hand in fire, you pull it back when you get burnt

Gotta learn when you get hurt

Even if its with cupid

He beat you and you went back

She's officially stupid

Oh yeah I understand thats your man

You had a plan

You been together for some years

You sticking with him for the kids

So you overlook the tears but we both know thats a bad look

Cause 20 years from now your daughter will probably get her ass whooped

If this too deep for the intro I’ll find another use

But just in case its perfect let me introduce

Cole, cole, cole

[Hook]

Time to save the world

Where in the world is all the time?

So many things I still don't know

So many times I've changed my mind

Guess I was born to make mistakes

But I ain't scared to take the weight

So when I stumble off the path

I know my heart will guide me back

[Verse 2. C. cole]

If this too deep for the intro I’ll find another use

But just in case its perfect let me introduce

It’s cole, I had a dream and so I made a move

A ill ass nigga who just so happened to stay in school

Still rap for hustlers and muthaf-ckers that hated school

Said thats for busters that heard my shit and I made it cool

This ain't to say that I’m gifted as if I’m christmas shopping

I got gangsta niggas lining up in admissions office

And possibly cause all the hoes a nigga scraped

A lot of shit up on my plate so you know a nigga late to my first class

I’d much rather sit up in first class

Should I admit that a slutty bitch was my first smash

Wasn't experienced, so nah I didn't wear it out

Always thought my first time would be someone I cared about

But being a virgin was something to be embarrassed 'bout

I used that ass for practice so I wasn't scared out my mind

You call it rhymes I call it clearing out my mind

Was just a young boy starin out my blinds

Till I got free from my momma leash

Running loose through the streets

Like a stray dog in heat

And we looking for some freaks can you play

Pardon me, whats your name, don’t mistake me for no lame

No not me

She knew I was on the team cause she seen how tall I’d be

In the club dappin’ niggas, eventually r-I-p

Damn, you win some, you lose some

That just how its happens

And if a nigga step up to ya, then you gotta scrap em

Your name is all you got, throwing hands by the bathroom

Its funny I barely told nobody I started rapping

Cause see some niggas was haters that I just viewed as clowns

At 14 I knew I was the nicest dude around

I gotta make a move, I gotta do this now

If they don’t know your dreams, then they can't shoot em down
