J. Cole - Apparently

[Chorus:]
I keep my head high,
I got my wings to carry me,
I don't know freedom,
I want my dreams to rescue me,
I keep my faith strong,
I ask the Lord to follow me,
I've been unfaithful,
I don't know why you call on me.

[Verse 1:]
This is my canvas,
I'ma paint it how I want it, baby, oh I!
This is my canvas,
I'ma paint it, paint it, paint it, how I want it, nigga,
Fuck you, ‘cause there
There is no right or wrong, only a song.
I like to write alone, be in my zone,
Think back to Forest Hills, no perfect home,
But the only thing like home I've ever known
Until they snatched it from my mama,
And foreclosed her on the loan.
I'm so sorry that I left you there to deal with that alone,
I was up in New York City chasin' panties, gettin' dome,
Had no clue what you was goin' through, how could you be so strong?
And how could I be so selfish, I know, I can be so selfish,
I could tell by how I treat you with my girl,
Damn, she so selfless, but she put up with my way,
Because she loves me like you do,
And though it don't always show, I love her just like I love you,
And I need to treat you better,
Wish you could live forever, so we could spend more time together,
I love you, mama.

[Chorus:]
I keep my head high,
I got my wings to carry me,
I don't know freedom,
I want my dreams to rescue me,
I keep my faith strong,
I ask the Lord to follow me,
I've been unfaithful,
I don't know why you call on me.

[Bridge:]
Apparently, you believe in me, you believe in me,
Apparently, you believe in me, and I thank you for it.

[Verse 2]
Another day, another rhyme, ho,
Another day, another time zone.
Today I woke up feelin' horny, so it's only right
I got two bitches playin' on my trombone.
Keep up, never sure where the words would take me,
Niggas eat ‘em up and regurgitate me,
Shit jumped tight, never slurred it lazy,
Give a virgin the urge to rape me.
Nigga, please...
Best friends really make great for enemies,
My watch came, niggas can't wait for one of these,
I see you, nigga, this ain't no Rolex, it's a AP, nigga,
I'm hot, dawg, catch up to me, nigga.
Uh, couldn't resist,
Aim for the stars and I shouldn't have missed,
But I was ridin' on fumes so I stopped by the moon,
Now I'm sittin' on the hood of this bitch
Like, thanks for the view.
Waitin' on thanks from a few, ‘cause without me you wouldn't exist,
You know, that shit gave you the blueprint, don't forget.
Cole, is your phone on zero percent?
Goin' off, now niggas showin' off,
Niggas swear they hard but they flowin' soft,
I'm takin' off like boing on a big ass Boeing,
Gettin' head like a coin toss –
Too easy.

[Chorus:]
I keep my head high,
I got my wings to carry me,
I don't know freedom,
I want my dreams to rescue me,
I keep my faith strong,
I ask the Lord to follow me,
I've been unfaithful,
I don't know why you call on me.

[Bridge:]
Apparently, you believe in me, you believe in me,
Apparently, you believe in me, and I thank you for it.
