J. Cole - The Storm Lyrics
[Verse 1]My man Shawn from around the way son been down from day oneNever been known for mistakes but was bound to make oneHer name was NinaSee he was all about the cash flow'Til she came and had this man ***** whipped to the max yoA true dime piece describing herBrown eyes, caramel skin, thick thighsGoes beyond speechBut besides looks her mind's lostKnown for kicking cats to the curbLeaving their hearts on the sidewalkShawn was one of themShe said she was loving him But only *****ed with him because he had some funds coming inHe couldn't see it thoughShe was cheating and he didn't even knowHe even bought a crib with this female hoeIn the ride, mad jewels, mad clothes, mad shoesAnd to show his commitment he got her name tattooedI gotta hand it to herShe had the stuff planned outBut watch what happened when her luck ran out[Chorus (x2):]What goes around comes aroundWhat goes up must come downYou up now but you'll get yoursSome howSome dayIn some way, shape, or formRevenge is comingNo way to escape the storm[Verse 2]Time passesShawn is thinking about wedding ringsBut he knows the signs of cheating and doesn't wanna believe themHe disregards themGoes out for diamond rings shoppingNow the big question is when is he gonna pop itWaiting for the right timeMeanwhile Nina's the same hoeLike a snare drum but bangs way moreFor Shawn up to this point shit's going well'Til one day his homeboy hit him on his cell, like:"Yo son you wont believe this, I just seen your chick."("Where?")"In the mall with this cat, he was palming her assI swear to God sonNeed me to run up on him and drop him?""Nah, chill I got thisI'll hit you back if it's popping"He hung up but called Nina"Where you at? What you doing?""At the mall with some friends buying new Timbs."Something sounded funnyShe was lying for sureBut Shawn had a little plot of his ownCheck it[Chorus:]What goes around comes aroundWhat goes up must come downYou up now but you'll get yoursSome howSome dayIn some way, shape, or formRevenge is comingNo way to escape the stormWhat goes around comes aroundWhat goes up must come downYou up now but you'll get yoursSome howSome dayIn some way, shape, or formRevenge is comingPeep how he plays this whore[Verse 3]I missed you (Aw)Missed you so bad I followed you (What, where?)Followed you all the way to your boyfriend's ron de vous (What?)Yeah ***** you caught nowSo don't even try to give me that shit you thought how it wasn't you who I saw now (No it wasn't)You trifling hoeI gave my whole life to you yoAnd now you basically shove a knife in my throat (It's not like that)But it's alright thoughThe same cat you was *****ing with thenIs currently laying dead in the trunk of my Benz (Oh God)Yeah get to cryingIn a minute you'll be there beside himAnd by the time the cops find you I'll be in the islands (No, I'm sorry)Visualizing what could have been between me and youIt was just just a dreamYou *****ed up the thing between us twoSo now it's pick your piece before you leave this earth ***** (We can work this out)I hope that shit was worth itAnd now I pray that God is mercilessWith this saidGoodbye to the reason I lived this life (Shawn)Pointed the gat to her mouthLong kiss goodnight (No)[Chorus (x2):]What goes around comes aroundWhat goes up must come downYou up now but you'll get yoursSome howSome dayIn some way, shape, or formRevenge is comingNo way to escape the storm
