[J. Cole, B.o.B - Pass Me By lyrics]
I know you're just doing your job
No mean to disrespect ya
But we been going through this
Thing since way back
I told ya when I get the
Dough I would pay back
But, I got problems baby
(yeah, if you only knew)
I got bigger problems baby
So while ya talk about the money
That I owe like it's as
If I didn't know man it
Don't mean nothin' to me
Cause right now I got my lil
Boy crying and my grandmother dying
Could ya please, stop fuckin' wit me?
Listen here I ain't lookin' for no tears
But my brother got a year and
My moma keep smokin' that shit
On top of that I'm broke, please
Put that in your notes for the next one
To call me up talkin' that shit
So life don't pass me by, cause
Sometimes it'll leave ya stuck
Don't ask me why (why)
Gotta keep this train-a-movin'
No time to cry (cry)
So lonely days I say goodbye (bye)
Gotta live for today so life
It won't pass me by
Cause sometimes it'll leave ya stuck
Don't ask me why (why)
Gotta keep this train-a-movin'
No time to cry (cry)
So lonely days I say goodbye (bye)
Gotta live for today so life
It won't pass me by
Dear Mr policeman
Am I wrong, ain't you supposed
To keep the peace, man?
I coulda swore that I
Was driving pretty peaceful
So why the hell is you pulling over me for?
Is it this black Mercedes?
(Oh na, I get it, I get it, I get it)
Or cause I'm black, hmm, maybe?
Tell me why my hands start
Sweating and I hold
My breathe every time you get behind me
I turn my music down so
You won't hear a sound
Man I'm nervous like I got
A couple pounds on me
You pull me over, ya frown on me
With your flashlight, tell me
What do you see?
Thug niggas, drug-dealers it's a trip
Every nigga in this whip got
A mothafuckin' college degree
So life don't pass me by, cause
Sometimes it'll leave ya stuck
Don't ask me why (why)
Gotta keep this train-a-movin'
No time to cry (cry)
So lonely days I say goodbye (bye)
Gotta live for today so life
It won't pass me by
Cause sometimes it'll leave ya stuck
Don't ask me why (why)
Gotta keep this train-a-movin'
No time to cry (cry)
So lonely days I say goodbye (bye)
Gotta live for today so life
It won't pass me by
My middle finger to the law, bustin' off
Tryin' to touch the sky
My teacher said, "Impossible"
But I'mma fuckin' try
Plus how he gon' tell me
He don't make the rules
There's niggas dying everyday
We don't make the news
Instead they talk about some thunderstorm
Cyclones timmy got his bike stole
Top story: Tiger Woods be fuckin'
A these white hoes anchorman stop snitchin'
Cut to commercial
He be textin' all his side bitches
Hey ma-goodness, how ironic
I'm tryed for possession of some chronic
My lawyer came to court
Man he was higher than the comet
Hey your Honor, is you kidding
How you sit above me?
Are you perfect mothafucka? How you
Finna to judge me?
When you home you don't cuss
Drink and puff like us?
These cops is Bad Boys
They be just like Puff
They hate their jobs and their days
Be fucked up like us at the end of the day
You niggas just like us
So life don't pass me by, cause
Sometimes it'll leave ya stuck
Don't ask me why (why)
Gotta keep this train-a-movin'
No time to cry (cry)
So lonely days I say goodbye (bye)
Gotta live for today so life
It won't pass me by
Cause sometimes it'll leave ya stuck
Don't ask me why (why)
Gotta keep this train-a-movin'
No time to cry (cry)
So lonely days I say goodbye (bye)
Gotta live for today so life
It won't pass me by
