PRETTY LITTLE LIES - 6LACK FT J.COLE

in #music5 years ago

I first heard this track about 2weeks ago and haven't been able to get it off my head ever since. I wasn't sure what to think when I saw J.Cole as a feature on this one but I was won over once I heard his verse.
What I love most about the song are it's lyrics, the way the artists sing about their women, not about sex, money and other topic that has become typical of this era but in an appreciative respectful manner. In the kind of way we would talk about our daughters and mothers.

And then the video, Ooh the video! It's so goooood.

I won't bother you with too much talk, see for yourself.
And don't forget to leave feedbacks.

[Verse 1: 6LACK]
Do better, who better?
You better? Been around, like hella, propellers
Wanna know who you with, don't tell 'em
Come on fellas, that ain't none of your biz'
Got on your body suit, you know I'm on your ass today
Would you let me hit it thrice if I asked today?
She know my stick nothing but magic babe
I be swinging it back and forth, 'til you in your casket, bae, mm

[Pre-Chorus: 6LACK]
Girl, you want my best side, mm
Bet she from the westside, mm, mm

[Chorus: 6LACK]
Now I just wanna know
Don't you sugarcoat
I'll say it all if you won't
Now could you tell me like it is?
Pretty little fears
Music to my ears

[Verse 2: 6LACK]
Okay, say it loud, say it proud, you want it more
We open door, hit the couch, then the floor
I cut it up, like a scissor, love galore
She never bored, there's so much shit we can do
You free to say whatever, baby, if you askin' me
No limit when I'm in it, got a Master P
I'm hoping I don't have a fast release
Got me focused like I'm out here tryna get my Masters see, mm
Throwin' up the peace sign, mm
Girl, I'm from the Eastside, mmm, mmm

[Pre-Chorus: 6LACK]
Girl, you on my best side, mm
Say she from the west side, mm, mm

[Chorus: 6LACK]
Now I just wanna know
Don't you sugarcoat
I'll say it all if you won't
Now could you tell me like it is?
Pretty little fears
Music to my ears
Now I just wanna know
Don't you sugarcoat
I'll say it all if you won't
Now could you tell me like it is?
Pretty little fears
Music to my ears

[Verse 3: J. Cole]
I'm lovin' your light, vulnerable
Lettin' your guard down, it's honorable
'Specially when the past ain't been that
Friendly to you but there’s magic in that
You the flower that I gotta protect
To keep alive in the winter time, aye, don't you die yet
You been way more than a friend of mine, we more like fam
I raise you, you raise me, let's turn this whole life 'round
You can confide in me
I could take the weight up off your shoulder blades
And try to store the pain inside of me
Like why the world do you like that?
Like they don't know you God-sent, but me, I view you like that
I'm sneakin' glances thankin’ God that he drew you like that
Beautiful black child, come and share your black cloud
For your vibe and your smile, I don't mind a lil' rain
I'm your dog, ears perk up at the sound of your name
Count on your main, wildfire, can't handle your flame
Download your shame, wild high, come drown in your fragrance
You that red pill that a nigga found in the Matrix
Before I had you this shit was fantasy
You plant a seed to grow some roots, a branch and leaves
Becomes a tree of life until our nights are filled
With peace from stress and strife
And that's the blessing that I get from wifing you
'Cause you entrusted me with the key to your heart
Beating you smart
'Cause even though I need a new start
Due to my past transgressions, you believed in me
I guess the light I see in you is what you see in me, Lord
