About Hello

With Cole’s lack of a love life mentioned in the previous song, he decides to call up an old flame to see if they can re-kindle what they had, only to find out she started a new life. Throughout the song Cole tries to reach her over the phone, (hence the repetition of “hello”), while contemplating how he could have changed his life with her. Note: It’s possible Cole is talking about the same girl he did on Game’s “Pray” given the details in both tracks. .

Hello Lyrics

[00:13.26]Hello, hello, hello
[00:19.34]Hello, hello, hello
[00:25.22]And I thought about you today
[00:28.23]And I thought about the things you used to say
[00:31.27]And I thought about the things we did
[00:34.19]And I thought about your newest kid
[00:37.41]And damn, that makes two now
[00:40.58]Oh, what do I do now?
[00:43.42]'Cause if we ever got together
[00:45.68]I'd have to be them niggas step-pops forever
[00:49.41]And well, that ain't my thing 'cause I
[00:52.54]I ain't even got my own
[00:55.36]And I ain't really got no home
[00:58.31]No place to put these things I own
[01:01.27]And I thought about the things you used to say
[01:04.29]And I thought about the games we used to play
[01:07.23]And I thought about that little kid
[01:10.31]And I thought about the things we did
[01:13.12]I always thought that we would be together
[01:16.14]I always knew that we would be together
[01:19.41]But I'on wanna wait forever
[01:22.56]I'on wanna wait forever
[01:25.41]Hello, hello, hello
[01:31.42]Hello, hello, hello
[01:38.75]Hello?
[01:41.60]Hell-hello?
[01:44.57]Hello, hello?
[01:44.96]Shit seem so sad when you look back
[01:46.46]Shit seem so sad when you look back
[01:47.13]Hello?
[01:47.96]Shit seem so sad when you look back
[01:49.43]Shit seem so sad when you look back
[01:51.01]Shit seem so sad when you look back
[01:52.45]Shit seem so sad when you look back
[01:53.94]Shit seem so sad when you look back
[01:55.45]Shit seem so sad when you look back
[01:56.94]Shit seem so sad when you look back
[01:58.49]Everything's so sad when you look back
[02:00.19]On the rebound like a book back
[02:01.70]On the rebound like a book back
[02:03.01]Don't just sit back, bitch get on it
[02:04.42]Time fly by way too quick, don't it?
[02:05.93]Reflection bring regrets, don't it?
[02:07.48]Rejection make your defenses
[02:08.78]So you protect your pride with your reflexes
[02:10.32]But life is a game with no reset on the end
[02:12.14]It ain't no lookin' back, no, no, no
[02:14.76]No, it ain't no lookin' back, no, no, no
[02:17.73]No, it ain't no lookin' back, no, no, no, no
[02:22.20]It's all good, aye
[02:24.10]It ain't no lookin' back, no, no, no
[02:26.78]No, it ain't no lookin' back, no, no, no
[02:29.72]No, it ain't no lookin' back, no, no, no, no
[02:34.03]Huh, it's all good
[02:37.21]Hello, hello, hello
[02:43.30]Hello, hello, hello
[02:49.23]And I thought about you today
[02:52.22]And I thought about the things you used to say
[02:55.28]And I thought about the things we did
[02:58.25]And I thought about your newest kid
[03:01.38]And damn, that makes two now
[03:04.58]Oh, what do I do now?
[03:06.14]
