Who’s World is ThisJ. Cole

Released: January 27, 2012

Live from the city of dreams
You see I wrote and bag this dope in hopes of prettier things
If hope floats I took the boat up to the city of Queens
But phony niggas showed me quick this ain't the city of scenes
Hey! Fish out of water from the city of the dreamers
When young niggas feinding for them big body beamers
They told us we can have the world if I can get a deal
Maybe I could show the Ville that it's real

I put this on everything, I love
This is, my sweat and uhh my blood
(Who's world is this) You know it's mine
Boy I'm ready, it's my time, I got that flow to blow your mind
(Who's world is this) I'm gon ball
And uhh I'm gon shine and uhh I won't fall
(Who's world is this) I thought I told you this is my world baby
(It's mine, it's mine, it's mine)

Hey, straight out the Ville and I made it, hope you feeling my latest
Ayy what I spit on these pages highly anticipated, contagious
So when I spit it you gonna get it
Slightly different from these rappers who just spit but don't live it, see
I ain't no flashy nigga so don't expect me to floss
These niggas out here rappin with their fucking fingers crossed
I was a dreamer then I came up with a plan
Where I land I put it all on gods hands

I put this on everything, I love
This is, my sweat and uhh my blood
(Who's world is this) You know it's mine
Boy I'm ready, it's my time, I got that flow to blow your mind
(Who's world is this) I'm gon ball
And uhh I'm gon shine and uhh I won't fall
(Who's world is this) I thought I told you this is my world baby

And I feel like I got a loong way to go
And still I got a loong way to go
Feel like I got a loong way to go

J. Cole

Jermaine Lamarr Cole (b. January 28th, 1985), better known as J. Cole, is a rapper and producer who was born in Frankfurt, Germany and raised in Fayetteville, North Carolina. He gained a passion for rap at a young age and first went by the names Blaza and Therapist (the latter was given to him by Bomb Sheltah, a respected rap group from Fayetteville) before settling on his own name.

He first started getting recognition in 2007 with the release of his debut mixtape The Come Up. First, after a failed attempt to share a CD of his with Jay-Z, it would later be Hov, that would come to his attention after he heard Cole’s song “Lights Please”, Jay-Z would go on to make J. Cole his first signing to his then newly formed record label, Roc Nation, in 2009.

Since then he has become one of the biggest names of the “new school” era, with the release of five platinum certified albums. His debut release Cole The Sideline Story defied industry expectations by selling over 200,000 copies in its first week without a top 40 hit single at the time and his sophomore Born Sinner, saw him go head-to-head with Kanye West in a now iconic sales battle in Hip-Hop. Before this, Cole released two projects that would eventually become his Truly Yourz series, the third project debuted on the deluxe edition of Born Sinner.
