Bunce Road Blues (with Future & Tems) Lyrics
[00:15.75] Will you be around when I'm ready?
[00:18.95] I'd rather you go and be happy (happy)
[00:22.38] But I don't wanna leave you alone, no, mm
[00:27.52] Hm, all of y'all niggas is pussy, you shoot at the opps and run from the cops
[00:31.02] And I don't get it, I ain't suggesting you fire your weapon at 12, but hell
[00:34.43] Why in the fuck do we feel that niggas that's lookin' like us who deserve to be killed?
[00:37.99] Meanwhile, Capitol Hill been makin' it easy for them to go stuff us in cells
[00:41.43] I ain't no preacher for real, I just like to cut on the mic' and start lettin' it spill
[00:44.80] And I've been leavin' a trail, you play all my albums and find you a letter revealed
[00:48.32] This a suicide note, come here, look what I wrote, I'm 'bout to kill myself
[00:52.23] Fuck J. Cole, I don't even want this role, wanna rebuild myself
[00:55.78] Tuck my pole under the driver's seat, nigga, don't try to reach
[00:59.07] I'll bust a hole right in your frontal lobe, that's a lobotomy
[01:02.45] Two months ago, I was on Bunce Road, nigga done spotted me
[01:05.99] Said, "What's up, Cole? Nigga, I love you, bo"
[01:08.33] He said he proud of me, that touched my soul
[01:10.47] Wasn't too long ago that I was over here at Seventy-First Middle
[01:14.46] Had my very first little girlfriend, that'll let me get a feel or two
[01:18.15] Back then it was considerable, enough to void the ridicule
[01:21.53] But come another year or two
[01:23.15] "Boy, you better be fuckin' on somethin'"
[01:24.44] My mama ain't never even give me no rubbers
[01:26.50] Papa was gone, how to put Trojan on was somethin' I had to discover
[01:30.06] All on my own, y'all know the song
[01:31.77] I probably been singin' this shit for too long
[01:33.51] Pardon me if I've been soundin' like some broken record
[01:35.58] I come from the brokest of homes (shit)
[01:38.95] I come from the brokest of homes
[01:39.21] Will you be around when I'm ready?
[01:42.53] I'd rather you go and be happy (happy)
[01:45.91] But I don't wanna leave you alone, no
[01:50.27] It's seven o'clock on the dot
[01:52.59] I'm in my drop-top cruisin' the streets that I grew up in
[01:57.49] I didn't think the same back then
[02:00.49] Sayin', "Oh, how we changed," my nigga, that's when
[02:04.22] The pistols go pop, bodies drop
[02:06.43] They got the block blocked, it's the police, we ain't see nothin'
[02:11.18] I just roll up my weed and get to puffin'
[02:14.55] And lay back in my seat, oh yes, I'm numb again
[02:19.74] Uh-oh, uh-oh (will you be around when I'm ready?)
[02:23.20] Uh-oh, uh-oh (I'd rather you go and be happy) (happy)
[02:26.70] Uh-oh, uh-oh (but I don't wanna leave you alone, no)
[02:30.23] Uh-oh, uh-oh (happy)
[02:33.78] Uh-oh, uh-oh (will you be around when I'm ready?)
[02:37.25] Uh-oh, uh-oh (I'd rather you go and be happy) (happy)
[02:40.63] Uh-oh, uh-oh (but I don't wanna leave you alone, no)
[02:44.11] Uh-oh (yeah), uh-oh (yeah, hey)
[02:47.32] Finding you lose when you choose to neglect
[02:51.99] The roots that we grew to protect us, oh
[02:56.37] The sun has been blinding lately, mm-mm
[03:01.85] One day, you find when your light's out
[03:05.14] You always were a bright star to me
[03:08.71] Even at times the world didn't say so
[03:14.05] One in the morning
[03:16.30] If the walls where you once talked, would they fess up?
[03:19.88] I'm scared of the tales they will tell us
[03:23.26] Much better if I ignore
[03:28.78] Steady, will you be around when I'm ready?
[03:33.84] I'd rather you go and be happy
[03:37.18] But I don't wanna leave you alone, no
[03:42.12] Yeah, I'm steady
[03:44.25] But love might be gone when you're ready
[03:47.96] I should move on and be happy
[03:51.11] But I don't wanna leave you alone, oh
[03:57.35] Love is a mountain climb for you
[04:00.85] Throw you a line, I could pull you
[04:04.33] Scared I wouldn't grasp for long
[04:06.68] But my holding strong for you
[04:11.34] How many ways must I profess?
[04:14.89] Gunshot to your head, die for me
[04:17.82] Hey-hey, how can I let you go?
[04:24.95] Have mercy, it's broken
[04:28.59] I'm handcuffed, I'm roped in
[04:32.05] I'm handcuffed, I'm roped in
[04:35.34] I'm handcuffed, I'm roped in
[04:38.93] Have mercy, it's broken
[04:42.38] I'm handcuffed, I'm roped in
[04:45.95] I'm handcuffed, I'm roped in
[04:49.36] I'm handcuffed, I'm roped in
[04:52.29]
