    I’m 16 and about a year ago I had a back surgery and I was really nervous since I’ve never had surgery. I just remember being in the parking lot with my earbuds listening to this song and it really took away the anxiety’s of it all. I went into the operating room with this song on repeat in my head and I went under without any worry in the world. Since then this song is really comforting to me.

    Oh, right, oh
    Oh, why, na-da-da-da
    [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 (Yeah, 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 chasing panties, getting dome
    Had no clue what you was going 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 ways 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

    E-e-eee, e-e, apparently
    You believe in me, and I thank you for it, oh, I
    [Verse 2]
    Another day, another rhyme, ho
    Another day, another time zone
    Today, I woke up feeling horny so it's only right, I got two bitches playing on my trombone
    Keep up, never sure where the words would take me
    Niggas eat em up and regurgitate me
    Shit trump 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 an AP, nigga
    I'm hot, dog, catch up to me, nigga- huh, couldn't resist
    Aim for the stars and I shouldn't have missed
    But I was riding on fumes, so I stopped by the moon
    Now I'm sitting on the hood of this bitch
    Like, "Thanks for the view," waiting 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
    Going off, now niggas showing off
    Niggas swear they hard, but they flowing soft
    I'm taking off like "boing!" on a big ass Boeing, and getting 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

    I feel so lost right now, like I dont know where I'm going in life and life isnt helping me find my way either...its been this way for a while but I want to have faith that this is all for the better, that there is a reason for why some things dont go the way I would want.
    So I'm going to play this song as loud as I need to and sing along with it cause it really feels like this is the song my heart is singing to me whenever I'm feeling lost or in need of answers. The first part of the song just hits me right in my soul... 0:00 - 1:14 but the whole song is just one of my favorites.
    Thanks J.Cole for this beauty!
    I hope I'm doing much better and laugh at how I was crying writing this later on.

      He's reached a level of lyricism that I'm pretty sure no awards album chart ratings can come anywhere near to the level of IMPORTANCE HE HOLDS SPECIAL FOR when HE can see that his embedded messages were actually pulled from his music and he can witness the message affect others in whatever way he designed it to. J Cole doesn't create music.... J Cole is creating Culture. (KNOWLEDGE IS POWER KIDS ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT) Those who say "I don't know or i don't get it". Are mindless idiots who choose to live as modern day compony slaves. But those who choose to "UNDERSTAND AND FIND ANSWERS Those individuals are free from societies sick trap.

Screw the haters, 2014 Forest Hills Drive is a great album. I hope I can make an impact with my music the way J. Cole continues to do each day. Feel free to give my songs a listen. If you like what you hear, that's all that really matters to me.
