J. Cole - Mic Please lyrics

[Tones] Sometimes the effort that you put in is less than what you get back Always room for failure in this life, can't regret that It only makes you stronger when the day really burn The undeniable greatness got me feeling up Who the f** ain't feeling um, you just feeling mad cuz you ?? f** your money too, that dollar's Illuminati I came up off of Hip-Hop, real sh** back in the day Why you wannabes think I'm rapping is ?? I know the pain that I speak of is deeper than your gra** Just take a second to listen, that's all I got to ask Surrounded by this trash and I'm getting overlooked Write a hook for a g, pay for a show you got booked 6-3-1 , 6-3-9 , 1-9-40 That's my number all you f**s can just call me Destroy wannabes, invite me to your friend's party For a g I'll burn him in front of his own mommy I'm nasty, when I tell ya I can never lose These words I from a selection in which I some and choose This is what legends do, I'm light years gone Close your eyes anytime you hear this song [Coast] What's the difference if you listen to the garbage they prescripting you And see inside the demons and the leeches when I spit the truth It's sickness that is lifting you from off your feet to hit the roof Inside you'll find the evil in these feeble minded ??? Deceitful lies and simple proof that even I could think is true If you were looking back at all the facts that these b**hes knew If ignorance is innocence, then innocence you're all wrong I see it in your faces, that's the place they rest their pulse on So you can tell your lies and then decide you might believe it But I've arrived to find I declined to hide your secrets What I provide is genius, my lines inside a secrets Designed to make you vibe whenever you decide to peep this And that's just what the speed is so you should try and catch up Hit you where you breathing, it freezes from the neck up No disrespect son but my intention is deadly Carving out your heart with the sharpest machete I see inside your rhymes and all the lies you try to sell us s** out a feeling that you're fabricated over zealous Statements that you make are just your fake imagination An attempt to validate your alter state and miscreation You expect me to believe your deceitful ways and fakery Your measurement of my intelligence is just amazing me How stupid can you take me for, if anything I'm maybe more If life is just a game then you ain't acting like we played before Me I got the greatest score, dominating take the sport Filling up the pages in your record book, I came for more Than what you clowns is giving me, we just sounding different G My I'm on something other sh**, you just ride a dick and freeze [Tabs] I felt something in my soul, back when I was younger No matter what I tried I couldn't satisfy the hunger Now all these rappers hide cuz my battle cries thunder The illest cat alive still I agonize to wonder Would I ever make a move that was major Actualize the dreams of my youth, see the fruits of my labor Will there ever be a million people screaming Bad Karma Or is this another opportunity I have squandered Had to look deep inside my soul to find the truth within Now it's maneuvering and exulting through the skin You have been formally introduced to my hunger pains Went from 'What's his name' to Tabs One but nothing changed It corrupts my brain when I see your weak schemes What we've seen is quite rare, makes nightmares to sweet dreams I got a street team but we don't put posters up We kick open doors that all of these frauds have closed and shut So roll a dutch and toast to Big L, to Big L I must love Hip-Hop cuz I ain't got sh** else I'm in hell and there ain't even a slight breeze So I light trees and look to the right like mic please [Hook - Tabs] Mic please, pa** me the mic That's what I been waiting for, for all my life I will never fall, I will brawl and fight Just pa** me that sh** and it will be alright [5x] Mic please, just pa** me the mic...
