Edit By: 216.73.216.65

[Hook: TLC]
Iâ€™m on my way, on my way, on my way down (x2)
Youâ€™re the one that was trying to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know I found my way back round[Verse 1: J. Cole]
Look
They tell me I should fix my grill cause I got money now
I ainâ€™t gonâ€™ sit around and front like I ainâ€™t thought about it
A perfect smile is more appealing but itâ€™s funny how
My shit is crooked look at how far I done got without it
I keep my twisted grill, just to show them kids itâ€™s real
We ainâ€™t picture perfect but we worth the picture still
I got smart, I got rich, and I got bitches still
And they all look like my eyebrows: thick as hell
Love yourself, girl, or nobody will
Oh, you a woman? I donâ€™t know how you deal
With all the pressure to look impressive and go out in heels
I feel for you
Killing yourself to find a man thatâ€™ll kill for you
You wake up, put makeup on
Stare in the mirror but its clear that you canÃ¢Â€Â™t face whatÃ¢Â€Â™s
wrong
No need to fix what God already put his paint brush on
Your roommate yelling, â€œWhy you gotta take so long?â€
What itâ€™s like to have a crooked smile
This crooked smile[Hook][Verse 2: J. Cole]
To all the women with the flaws, know itâ€™s hard my darling
You wonder why youâ€™re lonely and your manâ€™s not calling
You keep falling victim cause youâ€™re insecure
And when I tell you that youâ€™re beautiful you canâ€™t be sure
Cause you see that no one wants you back and it got you asking
So all you see is what you lacking, not what you packing
Take it from a man that loves what you got
And baby girl youâ€™re a star, donâ€™t let â€˜em tell you youâ€™re not
Now is it real? Eyebrows, fingernails, hair
Is it real? if itâ€™s not, girl you donâ€™t care
Cause whatâ€™s real is something that the eyes canâ€™t see
That the hands canÃ¢Â€Â™t touch, that them broads canÃ¢Â€Â™t be, and
thatÃ¢Â€Â™s you
Never let â€˜em see you frown
And if you need a friend to pick you up, IÃ¢Â€Â™ll be around
And we can ride with the windows down, the music loud
I can tell you ainÃ¢Â€Â™t laughed in a while
But I wanna see that crooked smile[Hook][Bridge 1: J. Cole (TLC)]
Crooked smile, we could style on â€˜em (back â€™round)
Crooked smile, we could style on â€˜em (back â€™round)
(YouÃ¢Â€Â™re the one that was trying to keep me way down.
Like the sun, I know you know I found my way back round..)[Verse 3: J.
Cole]
We donâ€™t look nothing like the people on the screen
You know them movie stars, picture perfect beauty queens
But we got dreams and we got the right to chase Ã¢Â€Â˜em
Look at the nation, thatÃ¢Â€Â™s a crooked smile braces couldnÃ¢Â€Â™t even
straighten
Seem like half the race is either on probation, or in jail
Wonder why we inhale, cause we in hell already
I asked if my skin pale, would I then sell like Eminem or Adele?
Yo one more time for the â€˜Ville
And fuck all of that beef shit, nigga letÃ¢Â€Â™s make a mil
Hey officer man, we donÃ¢Â€Â™t want nobody getting killed
Just open up that cell, let my brother out of jail
I got money for the bail now, well now
If you asking will I tell now? Hell naw
I ainÃ¢Â€Â™t snitching cause
Man, they get them niggas stitches now
If you was around, then you wouldnÃ¢Â€Â™t need a witness now
How you like this crooked smile?[Hook][Bridge 2]
