[J. Cole - I'm a Fool lyrics]
Hundred thousand for the jewels
Last year we killed the game and
Left y'all browsing for the clues
Old niggas out here searching for
That fountain of the youth
Money talks and hoes say it's
An arousing point of view
Don't make me act a fool
Like Malcolm before the suit
How could you justify
I testified up in this booth
And then, throughout the years
Spilled tears and shed truth
Somehow they love a nigga better when
He talk about his loot
Chain like a kaleidoscope
See life through a wider scope
Therefore, I know this necklace
Really represents a noose
Still I hit the jeweler how much
Racks to make me cooler
I just play the game homie
I ain't make the rules up
Started from the bottom same way
You lace your shoes up
So if I'm blowing cake
Just blame it on the place I grew up
Where niggas had nothing but
Dreams and television
Got no plans of seeing hell or prison
You can tell I'm living, right?
I'm a fool (Never said I'm livin' right)
Such a fool for you
And they like boy you a fool
Boy you a fool boy you a fool
And they like and they like
And they like boy you a fool
Boy you a fool and they like
And they like
I'm a fool, hundred thou to go to school
So much debt me and my mama
Damn near drowning in a pool
The first to go to college
They say knowledge is the tool
But these hoes on campus make
A young nigga drool so we party, skip class
Get ass and talk cool
Meanwhile, she back home working hard
I use that as my fuel
So I finally graduated but I'm sad to say it
I ain't learn a fucking thing except the
Game and how to play it, damn!
I'm a fool, no scuffs on my shoes
No cuts, I don't bruise
So fuck y'all reviews
She told me, "Cole, I love you
Rode with you before the riches
But, you way too educated to
Be calling women bitches
And calling brothers niggas
Pardon if I crossed a line
But all this time knew you was
Different than all them other niggas"
I responded to her
"Please don't put me on a pedestal
'Cause, I know better and I'm still a fool"
I'm a fool (yeah, I know it's pitiful)
Such a fool for you
And they like boy you a fool
Boy you a fool boy you a fool
And they like and they like
And they like boy you a fool
Boy you a fool and they like
And they like
