J. Cole - 4 Your Eyez Only
Written by：Jermaine Cole
Yeah
For your eyes only for your eyes
For your eyes only for your eyes only
For your eyes
For your eyes only
Hey be dying on the daily
It seems my dreams faded for far too long
The consequences deadly
Can't visualize myself as nothing but a criminal
Control the block serving up rocks and stay subliminal
'Cause young is hardheaded they letting off
Full of adrenaline ignorant to what death can cause
Ain't no coming back family dressed in black
Plus it's hot now the cops outside it's hard to flip a pack
And my daughter gotta eat her mama be stressing me
Like I ain't the one who put them jays on her feet
Like I ain't out in the field like that
I might be low for the moment but I will bounce back
Despite the charges back to the wall I fight regardless
Screaming f**k the law my life is lawless
That's what you call it ain't got to be no psychic
To see this is like the farthest thing from heaven
This is hell and I don't mean that hyperbolic
I try to find employment even if it's wiping toilets
But these felonies be making life the hardest
Resisting the temptation to run up and swipe a wallet
Or run up on your yard snatch your daughter bike and pawn it
That's why I write this sonnet
If the pressure get too much for me to take and I break
Play this tape for my daughter and let her know my life is on it
For your eyes let her know my life is on it
For your eyes for your eyes only
For your eyes do you understand
For your eyes do you understand me
For your eyes do you understand
For your eyes do you understand me
For your eyes do you understand
For your eyes do you understand me
For your eyes do you understand
For your eyes only
You probably grown now so this song'll hit you
If you're hearing this unfortunately
Means that I'm no longer with you in the physical
Not even sure if I believe in God but because you still alive
He got me praying that the spiritual is real
So I can be a part of you still my pops was killed too
So I know how part of you feels
Maybe you hate me maybe you miss me maybe you spite me
Life goes in cycles maybe you'll date a just like me
I hope not I'm tired of d**e spots
And fiends that smoke rocks
I've seen far too many hopes rot
I'm writing this because me and the devil had a dance
Now I see death around the corner apologizing in advance
Don't know if I ever had a chance at a glance I'm a failure
Addicted to pushing paraphernalia
But daddy had dreams once my eyes had a gleam once
Innocence disappeared by the age of eight years
My pops shot up drug related mama addicted
So granny raised me in projects where thugs was hanging
Blood was staining the concrete
Older I loved talked like they was above
Maintaining a time sheet that slow money
Picked up the family business by the age of thirteen
Six years later was handed sentence
'Round the same time is when you came in this world
Me and your mama thinking
What the f**k we naming this girl
I told her Nina the prettiest name that I could think of
For the prettiest thing my eyes had ever seen I was nineteen
Took me two felonies to see the trap
This crooked a** system set for me
And now I fear it's too late for me to ever be
The one that set examples that was never set for me
I'm living fast but not fast enough
Cause karma keeps on catching up to me
And if my past becomes the death of me
I hope you understand
For your eyes do you understand
For your eyes do you understand me
For your eyes do you understand
For your eyes do you understand me
For your eyes do you understand
For your eyes do you understand me
For your eyes do you understand
For your eyes only
It's several ways I could've went out too many to count
Was it the trigger happy crackers that the badges give clout
Was it the young blasting frustrated
Cause the cash running out
Don't know how to act in a drought
See baby girl I realized
My definition of a real was skewed
My views misshaped by new mixtapes
That confirmed the sh*t I learned in the streets was true
That real don't speak when they beef with you
They just pull up on your street let the heat achoo
And if a real hungry he gon' eat your food
I was a fool spent all my time ducking school ducking cops
Ducking rules hugging blocks that don't love you
I pray you find a with goals and point of views
Much broader than the corner if not it's gon' corner you
Into a box where your son don't even know his pops
And the cyclical nature of doing time continues
My worst fear is one day that you come home from school
And see your father face while hearing 'bout tragedy on news
I got the strangest feeling your daddy gonna lose his life soon
And sadly if you're listening now it must mean it's true
But maybe there's a chance that it's not
And this album remains locked
In a hard drive like valuable jewels
And I can teach you this in person
Like I'm teaching you to tie your own shoes
I love you and I hope to God I don't lose you
For your eyes only
For your eyes for your eyes only
For your eyes for your eyes only
For your eyes do you understand
For your eyes only
One day your daddy called me told me he had a funny feeling
What he'd been dealing with lately he wasn't telling
I tried to pick his brains still he wasn't revealing
But I could feel the sense of panic in his voice
And it was chilling he said
Jermaine I knew you since we was children
I never asked for nothing when times was hard
I never had discussions with you begging you to help me
I dealt with the repercussions of my actions
I know you tried to steer me 'way from that sh*t
But that sh*t was in my blood you know my life
I know your mamma send my love
In case I never get a chance to speak again
I won't forget the weekends spent sleeping at your crib
That's the way I wished my family lived
But my granny crib was in the 'jects
I had to interject like
What you talking 'bout f**k is you getting at
He said listen I got no time to dive into descriptions
But I've been having premonitions
Just call it visions from the other side
I got a feeling I won't see tomorrow
Like the time I'm living on is borrowed
With that said the only thing I'm proud to say I was a father
Write my story down and if I pass
Go play it for my daughter when she ready
And so I'm leaving you this record for your eyes only
Don't you ever scratch or disrespect it
This perspective is a real one another lost 'ville son
I dedicate these words to you and all the other children
Affected by the mass incarceration in this nation
That sent your pops to prison when he needed education
Sometimes I think that segregation would've done us better
Although I know that means that I would never
Be brought into this world cause my daddy was so thrilled
When he found him a white girl to take back to Jonesboro
With little Zach and Cole world barely one years old
Now it's thirty years later making sure this story's told
Girl your daddy was a real not cause he was cold
Not because he was the first
To get some p**sy twelve years old
Not because he used to come through
In the Caddy on some vogues
Not because he went from bagging up
Them grams to serving O's
Nah your daddy was a real not 'cause he was hard
Not because he lived a life of crime and sat behind some bars
Not because he screamed f**k the law
Although that was true
Your daddy was a real cause he loved you
For your eyes only
