Karaoké Crooked Smile J. Cole & TLC

On my way, on my way

On my way down

On my way, on my way

On my way down

You were the one that was tryna keep me way down

But like the sun know you know

I find my way back 'round

Uh

They tell me I should fix my grill 'cos I got money now

I ain't gon' sit around and front like I ain't thought about it

A perfect smile's more appealin' but it's funny how my shit is crooked, look at how far I done got without it

I keep my twisted grill just to show the kids it's real

We ain'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

Though you a woman

I don't know how you deal with all the pressure

To look impressive and go out in heels

I feel for you

Killin' yourself to find a man that'll kill for you

You wake up, put makeup on

Stare in the mirror but it's clear that you can't face what's wrong

No need to fix what God already put His paintbrush on

Your roommate yellin'

Why you gotta take so long

What it's like to have

On my way, on my way a crooked smile

On my way down

On my way, on my way

On my way down

This crooked smile

You were the one that was tryna keep me way down

But like the sun know you know

Yeah

To all the women with the flaws

I find my way back 'round

Know it's hard my darlin'

You wonder why you're lonely and your man's not callin'

You keep fallin' victim 'cos you're insecure

And when I tell you that you're beautiful you can't be sure

'Cos he don't seem to want you back and it's got you askin'

So all you see is what you lackin' not what you packin'

Take it from a man that loves what you got

And baby girl you a star

Don't let 'em tell you you're not

Now is it real

Eyebrows, fingernails, hair

Is it real

If it's not girl you don't care

'Cos what's real is somethin' that the eyes can't see

That the hands can't touch

That them broads can't be

And that's you

Never let 'em see your frown

And if you need a friend to pick you up I'll be around

And we can ride with the windows down

The music loud

I can tell you ain't laughed in a while but I wanna see that crooked smile

On my way, on my way

On my way down

On my way, on my way

On my way down

You were the one that was tryna keep me way down

But like the sun know you know

Come from uh

I find my way back 'round

We got the

Crooked smile

We can style on 'em

Back 'round

Crooked smile

We can style on 'em

You were the one that was tryna keep me way down

But like the sun know you know

I find my way back 'round

We don't look nothin' like the people on the screen

You know the movie stars

Picture perfect beauty queens

But we got dreams and we got the right to chase 'em

Look at the nation

That's a crooked smile braces couldn't even straighten

Seem like half the race is either on probation or in jail

Wonder why we inhale

'Cos we in Hell already

I ask If my skin pale would I then sell like Eminem or Adele

But one more time for the 'Ville

And fuck all of that beef shit

Nigga let's make a mil

Hey officer man we don't want nobody gettin' killed

Just open up that cell

Let my brother outta jail

I got money for the bail now and well now

If you askin' will I tell now

Ayy hell nah

I ain't snitchin' 'cos man they get them niggas stitches now

If you was around then you wouldn't need a witness now

How you like this crooked smile

On my way, on my way

On my way down

On my way, on my way

On my way down

That crooked smile

You were the one that was tryna keep me way down

But like the sun know you know

We got the

I find my way back 'round

Crooked smile

We can style on 'em

Back 'round
