Lyrics of Premeditated Murder by J. Cole

intro

Yeah
Hey
Hey
Yeah!

verse

Am I changing right before your eyes?
Becoming someone you don't recognize
As if I was disguised, I'm on that shit as if I was the fly
I'm touchin' skies, no puffin' lie

verse

Man these songs that I made in my bedroom and shit
Gon' finally give a nigga leg room and a whip
From a Civic to a Chevy must've died and went to heaven
Like a passenger on nine-eleven, please go find a reverend

verse

You see I promise that I'd never change
But that was way before I made the dough and met the game
Say hello to Miss Thang, I forgot yo name, she yellow
And even white women want a nigga, Othello

verse

I'm ballin' with nuggets, like fuck it I'm Carmello
Now the crib got much room, Portobello
She drop it low and then she bust moves for the fellow
I sit yo ass down like you was playin' a cello

verse

See, you niggas hated and I levitated further
Knew I would kill the game, premeditated murder
So if it comes down, then may the best man win
No sweat like a head band

chorus

Where I'm from, if you ever seen what I seen, hey
You know it can't get no better for me
No it can't get no better for me
Where I'm from, if you ever seen what I seen, hey
You know it can't get no better for me
No it can't get no better for me

verse

Yeah, I'm a kill the game and invite witnesses
No death penalty, I'm givin' out life sentences
Like keep grindin' boy, your life can change in one year
And even when it's dark out, the sun is shining somewhere

verse

Yeah, look here I pay dues
My own worst enemy so fuck it either way I can't lose
808's so my south niggas feel me
Light-skinned so the house niggas feel me

verse

She catch me creepin' out your house she'll kill me
Is it worth it what's under that blouse?
My heart'll turn pitch black and cold if I split with my girl
If I could gift-wrap the globe, I would give you the world

verse

But, do you love me like you used to?
Even though I ain't that nigga that you're used to, yeah
Remember back when I was broke, you would fix me
Do you prefer the broke me or the rich me

verse

The broke me couldn't buy you meals, not even a value meal
And now I pay for everything, how you feel?
Mixed feelings 'cause now all the chicks feelin' him
You gotta adapt though never goin' back

chorus

Where I'm from, if you ever seen what I seen, hey
You know it can't get no better for me
No it can't get no better for me
Where I'm from, if you ever seen what I seen, hey
You know it can't get no better for me
No it can't get no better for me

outro

Huh, I can't keep running away
I can't keep running away
I swear I'm coming back today, hey
But if I'm wrong
And I ain't got what it takes
Then all dem people that was counting on me
Boy won't you climb down the mountain for me
Hey, hey, hey, huh
Writer(s): J. Cole
