Note to Self
J. Cole

[Hook]

And wherever we go

And whatever we do

And whatever we see

And whoever we be

It don't matter

It don't matter

I don't mind cause you don't matter

I don't mind cause I don't matter

(And don't shit matter)

You'll see in the end


[Verse 1]

I've got a feeling that there's somethin' more

Something that holds us together

Something that holds us together

The strangest feeling but I can't be sure

Something that's old is forever

Something that's old is forever

Love

Love

Love


Love


[Hook]
