[Intro: J. Cole]
~#**************#~
Cop another bag and smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag and smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag and smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag and smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag and smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag and smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag and smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag and smoke today
~#**************#~
[Chorus: kiLL edward]
~#**************#~
I got thoughts, cant control
~#**************#~
Got me down, got me low
~#**************#~
Rest my mind, rest my soul
~#**************#~
When I blow, when I blow
~#**************#~
Am I wrong, let them know
~#**************#~
Feels so right to let things go
~#**************#~
Dont think twice, this is me
~#**************#~
This is how I should be
~#**************#~
[Bridge: J. Cole]
~#**************#~
But Im aggravated without it
~#**************#~
My saddest days are without it
~#**************#~
My Saturdays are the loudest
~#**************#~
Im blowing strong
~#**************#~
Some niggas graduated to powder
~#**************#~
I dabble later, I doubt it
~#**************#~
My database of narcotics
~#**************#~
Its growing long
~#**************#~
But Im aggravated without it
~#**************#~
My saddest days are without it
~#**************#~
My Saturdays are the loudest
~#**************#~
Im blowing strong
~#**************#~
Some niggas graduated to powder
~#**************#~
I dabble later, I doubt it
~#**************#~
My database of narcotics
~#**************#~
Its growing long
~#**************#~
[Verse: J. Cole]
~#**************#~
I wrote this shit to talk about the word addiction
~#**************#~
To my niggas — I hope you listening
~#**************#~
— and —, I hope you listening
~#**************#~
This is for the whole fucking Ville, I hope youre listening
~#**************#~
Smoking medical grade, but I aint got prescription
~#**************#~
All the way in Cali where they aint got precipi-
~#**************#~
-tation, feeling like the only one that made it
~#**************#~
And I hate it for my niggas cause they aint got ambition
~#**************#~
Fuck did you expect, you can blame it on condition
~#**************#~
Blame it on crack, you can blame it on the system
~#**************#~
Blame it on the fact that 12 got jurisdiction
~#**************#~
To ride around in neighborhoods that they aint ever lived in
~#**************#~
Blame it on the strain that you feel when daddy missing
~#**************#~
Blame it on Trump shit, blame it on Clinton
~#**************#~
Blame it on trap music and the politicians
~#**************#~
Or the fact that every black boy wanna be Pippen
~#**************#~
But they only got 12 slots on the Pistons
~#**************#~
Blame it on the rain, Milli Vanilli with the disk skip
~#**************#~
What Im tryna say is the blame can go deep as seas
~#**************#~
Just to blame em all I would need like twenty CDs
~#**************#~
Theres all sorts of trauma from drama that children see
~#**************#~
Type of shit that normally would call for therapy
~#**************#~
But you know just how it go in our community
~#**************#~
Keep that shit inside it dont matter how hard it be
~#**************#~
Fast forward, them kids is grown and they blowing trees
~#**************#~
And popping pills due to chronic anxiety
~#**************#~
I been saw the problem but stay silent cause I aint Jesus
~#**************#~
This aint no trial if you desire go higher please
~#**************#~
But fuck that now Im older I love you cause you my friend
~#**************#~
Without the drugs I want you be comfortable in your skin
~#**************#~
I know you so I know you still keep a lot of shit in
~#**************#~
You running from yourself and you buying product again
~#**************#~
I know you say it helps and no Im not trying to offend
~#**************#~
But I know depression and drug addiction dont blend
~#**************#~
Reality distorts and then you get lost in the wind
~#**************#~
And I done seen the combo take niggas off the deep end
~#**************#~
One thing about your demons they bound to catch up one day
~#**************#~
Id rather see you stand up and face them than run away
~#**************#~
I understand this message is not the coolest to say
~#**************#~
But if you down to try it I know of a better way
~#**************#~
Meditate
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus: J. Cole]
~#**************#~
Meditate, meditate, meditate, meditate
~#**************#~
Dont medicate, medicate, dont medicate, medicate
~#**************#~
Meditate, meditate, meditate, meditate
~#**************#~
Dont medicate, medicate, dont medicate, medicate
~#**************#~
[Chorus: kiLL edward]
~#**************#~
I got thoughts, cant control
~#**************#~
Got me down, got me low
~#**************#~
Rest my mind, rest my soul
~#**************#~
When I blow, when I blow
~#**************#~
Am I wrong, let them know
~#**************#~
Feels so right to let things go
~#**************#~
Dont think twice, this is me
~#**************#~
This is how I should be
~#**************#~
[Outro: J. Cole]
~#**************#~
Cop another bag of smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag of smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag of smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag of smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag of smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag of smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag of smoke today
~#**************#~
Cop another bag of smoke today
