I Get Up
The Warm Up
LYRICS
I woke up early in the morning hoes blowing up my phone
Aint no use for small talking when they know Im trynna bone, fuck em'
I holla "lata;" man right now my minds else where
My moms healthcare, get her out this hell here
A lot of niggas fail, frail nigga wont prevail here
We seen it all, man - niggas cant even spell "scared"
A fresh prince but yo my city ain't no Bel-Air
Fuck if you excel I'm worried bout' my welfare
So farewell to them broke days and bonjour to the most paid
Soon as my doe straight I throw the wifey in some Dolce
And put some chains on my niggas like I own slaves
I get up, look out the window hope the sun shining down on the niggas out there frontlin'n
I hit the street and seem them boys out there locking up some older heads
said "God damn homie hold your head" and hold your head
I get up, I see the clouds from my window, I pray the sun don't shine this way
And where I go is the wind blow, momma your son gon' find his way
And if I gotta crawl Imma make it to the end though
Until the top if I climb my way, and tell 'em imma rise
I'm on my -- headin for the sky - I'm on my way
Paint a picture and show the deaf what its like to listen
And speak the words and tell the blind man what he missing
For all my niggas doing time man up in prison
Thought you had to resort to crime man fuck the system!
We raising babies up in Haiti where there aint no hope
Aint no fathers don't take no scholarship to slang no dope
Politicians hollern' bout problems but I aint gon' vote
Keep talking 'bout change til we floating in the same old boat
So tell me how I'm supposed to feel what the president spoke
When he aint never had to struggle aint never been broke
Aint even rode through the ghetto aint never been close
Trusting this government like trusting the devil in oath
A rebel with quotes- I Get Up!-
Lifestyles of the young, black and wreckless
A generation of niggas strapped and asking questions
Like, "Tell me why I aint got shit"
I let this liquors fill my liver with them toxics (as I sip)
I get up, I see the clouds from my window, I pray the sun don't shine this way
And where I go is the wind blow, momma your son gon' find his way
And if I gotta crawl Imma make it to the end though
Until the top if I climb my way, and tell 'em imma rise
I'm on my -- headin for the sky - I'm on my way
To all my niggas paper chasing I pray for your patience
Just keep the faith that you gon' make it one day you'll be cake'n
Taking this shit one step at a time
That real shit is stuck in my mind
But to that bullshit, I'm deaf and I'm blind
Destined to shine, Imma find a way
Cuz hey, damnit these jobs out here aint trynna pay, I pray
Granted, 9 to5 is how you survive I aint trynna survive
Im trynna throw my momma in rides
Imma provide for my seed I'm the soil
I'll teach 'em bout loyalty
I'll teach him that his skin black like oil that's for royalty
I'll show him all the things that my pops was never showing me
Treat him like a growing tree
With this poetry I get up!
And show the sons how to lead not to follow
The present is our gift but our seeds got tomorrow
So please niggas raise your kids
And hope them overcome that bullshit they dazed us with
I blaze this shit and get up
I get up, I see the clouds from my window, I pray the sun don't shine this way
And where I go is the wind blow, momma your son gon' find his way
And if I gotta crawl Imma make it to the end though
Until the top if I climb my way, and tell 'em imma rise
I'm on my -- headin for the sky - I'm on my way

I don't understand how people don't like this man
Look at the lyrics while listening to the song and i guarantee you'll appreciate it
Lady In Red J Cole is way too underrated
Lady In Red right! Smh
I think everyone liked mixtape J Cole until he blew up and made "Workout" and everything after that was sorta wack.
Because people like bullshit like Cardi b still don't know how her sorry ass won a Grammy that's embarrassing
Nothing like blasting this on your way to your 6 am shift. Best “just make it thru” song ever
This song was playing in my head when I had a gun to my head. Real shit! My fuckin song forever. Glad to be here.
Nothing like listening to the old J Cole and Kendrick mixtapes. 2011 vibes
Ive been listening to this song for the past 4 years. I'm now 19. I heard this song for the first time when I was 15. Everytime something happened in my life, good or bad, I would listen to this song. It has always been my favorite and it very well might be my favorite when I get older. For anyone reading this, trust me, things always get better. Go out with your friends. Go on a walk. Enjoy life! Bs is going to happen regardless man, but you will always come out stronger than you went in. I really hope you have a good day! : )
Prince Á needed to hear this brotha.
And if I gotta crawl ima make it to the end
Prince Á Thank you🙏🏽❤️
Same here. I listened to this song when I was 14 entering HS 😂. Just turned 20. Damn, crazy!
ay im 19 too bro
I heard “imma provide for my seed I’m the soil, I’ll teach about loyalty/ teach him that his skin black like oil, that’s for ROYALTY, “ when I was 16.
Stuck to my heart. Had never heard anyone say that before. Meant a lot to me. Cole the 🐐
Had to come here to remind myself why I fell in love with Cole's music. The Fall Off will be bittersweet. Salute king.
Same here man. This mixtape saved my life.
@@ShatteredRebel Wow! Yeah, this tape is the soundtrack to many lives. Glad youre still here.

Sitting back smoking a blunt listening to classics
When cole was vocalizing with the trumpets something just switched on inside of me

"Paint a picture and show the def what its like to listen.. and speak the words to tell a blind man what he missin"
Cole will forever be the greatest. Idk how I missed this song back in the day but this my first time hearing it in 2023 and my head won’t stop boppin
senior year, this was the morning song for the bus ride to and from school
man who you tellin lol c/o '11
2011 stand up!!! Man this song brings memories
Have y’all noticed that he’s humming the chorus of this song at the beginning of 03 adolescence. Makes since because both songs are about that time in his life. Love these connections that he slips in.
This song saved my life lowkey 🥺
This song used to literally wake me up every morning in 2010. Living on my own and struggling at the time, this kept me pushing. Low key gets me emotional when I hear it now because I was down so bad. Made it through that shit tho and I wake up grateful every day. No matter how rough times are, keep pushing through.
Happy for u bro
God bless the child that can hold his own and navigate through this life with a positive mind. YOU HAVE A FIGHTING CHANCE. That’s why you’re here reading this. Love ❤️
“If they don’t know your dreams, they can’t shoot them down” is my favourite line everytime
2024 and I'm still listening
Its always a song that ppl say "saves them from themselves" this is that song for me
Mine is lit bas Cole k quick
Respect

One of the best hip hop songs ever written.

Chills
Now in 2020 , imagine he drops a whole album against the system , The fall off album coming .....!!!!
@@theuniqueoneable lol wait u saying he would fall off? or destroy the system?
@@somenothing7914 no he has a album called the fall off album coming soon
@@theuniqueoneable ohhhho thank ya
I remember bumping this on the bus in highschool. Now I'm in the whip blasting it 🙌
top 5 song ALL Time
The most slept on J Cole song. This one my favorite too. It just hits different compared to his other songs
I’m glad that I discovered this, I just got into J. Cole 3 months ago, and exploring this man’s discography is such a satisfying process, every album is made with amazing passion and honesty. 10/10 lyricism, 10/10 music production and 10/10 on the message. His songs honestly feel like a set of unique journal entries and thats how a true artist should be when it comes to expressing themselves. The only thing I wished is that this song was on Apple music or Spotify, but regardless I’ll listen to it anyways :)
This warm up album hits different. Every single song. I first heard " lights please " before he even blew up. Almost 15 years later I'm still bumpin it
@@ciddxx- Yeah, his music is timeless. Because its always real shit coming from his heart and self reflection on his on past events that affected him or his feelings at a particular time and more importantly he just tries to have a good influence on people with his music as well, an artist as authentic as him even with all the fame rarely exists
Respect bro whether you listened 15 years ago or today it shouldnt matter. Glad you got put on .
Look up his song tempation w kendrick lamar
@@MMALineMover Thanks bro, I’ll definitely listen to that
So glad this song changed so many others lives as well. This song hit me at a crossroads. I was 15 and i was overcome with the pressures to join a gang and do all these things i had no business doing. It pushed me onto a much better path and helped me escape the harsh realities of my hood. Now i give back to the youth and plan to start a foundation in my neighborhood. God bless all yall. Continue to strive to be the best you.
Amen
What's your Twitter?
People think Kendrick is the PAC of our generation, but imo I think it’s J Cole for sure
Kendrick gets so much media support and Cole still out sells him like how crazy is that?
J Cole is the GOAT in my eyes. My favourite rapper for sure. Dudes also humble as fuck
@@IWantToStayAtYourHouse yeah definitely
J. Cole just finished The Off Season Era. He’s truly come a long way and I’m so blessed to have been part of the journey!❤️
This is what yall niggas need in yall lives, you live the shit Cole talkin bout, don't get me wrong, the Chief keef, Meek Mill, gangsta rap is cool, but don't live by it
Amen. but music has a lot of influence. So fuck all that to me chief keefs no where near cool he's poison. And someone like Cole medicine.
charlie M YES!!!!
Meek mill be talking about real shit tho
Been dealing with clinical depression for a few years now. This song is one of the few things that motivates me to keep getting up.
Thanks god we have J.Cole
Yessir
Some of the younger kids won't get it. This song... along with countless others is why Cole is the goat. This is also why he is one of the biggest rappers in the world. No, the song doesn't have the plays that some others do; but poetry like this is what built his fan-base. The albums are great; but mixtape Cole is untouched. Even the loosies that he has, is why his core fan-base is so strong. Bro been elite from the start.
Well said. The mixtapes and even the loosies is what got Cole that following.
“For them fans up on me early like a nigga leaked it, just know you fucking with the best this be our little secret, Until the world find out and then you got to share me”
2010-11 we knew eventually we were going to have to share him. The beauty was finding a gem like Cole early.
@@johnbowen6038 that's facts bro!! Feel like we were part of the journey and come up. Nothing like it!
Nas is goat
j cole top 5 prob
Facts, before I knew who J. Cole was I was a fan. When I heard him on a star is born. I didn't even know he had a mix tape. Then I met him in North Carolina in the mall, he was GIVING out his Warm up mixtape. I STILL HAD NO IDEA WHO HE WAS. When I learned who was spitting on a star is born, I was hooked.
still top 3 J Cole song
“Paint the picture to show the deaf what it’s like to listen; and speak the words to tell a blind man what he missing” man this bar perfectly encapsulates COLE! God level rapping at 23
This song gets me through life... no joke man
Here November 21. I used to play this song every morning before tech school in 2017. 4 years later I’m in a darker place. Battling alcoholism, first time listening to this song in so long has me emotional & tearing up. But if I gotta crawl ima make it to the end tho!!! I’m on my way!! Motivation!! Thank you cole
How are you doing now bro
@@e.k7741 I’m doing better honestly. Life has been changing for me in good ways. I’m looking forward to the future!
This song hit different when you have finally made it somewhere in life. Remember listening to this when I was 19 going through life and grinding each day to make something of myself. Thank cole
This song got me through so much in college. I would listen to it everyday for hours. The words touch me. Helped me keep hope!
This album made me a cole forever fan
2020 needs to hear this🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❄❄❄🌍🌎🌏
Don’t worry he got a whole album against the system coming , “The Fall Off album coming
Straight into 2021
Every black man needs to hear this rs
Man this was a perfect song to cruise to on a nice summer day. Brings back so many memories.
HelloWeChill I woke up early in the morning
Hoes blowin' up my phone
Ain't no use to small talkin' when they know I'm tryna bone
Fuck 'em
I'll holla later, man
Right now my mind elsewhere
My Mom's healthcare get her out this hell here
A lot of niggas fail
Frail niggas won't prevail here
We seen it all man, niggas can't even spell scared
A Fresh Prince but yo my city ain't no Bel-Air
Fuck if you would sell, I'm worried bout my welfare
So farewell to them broke days and bonjour to the most paid
Soon as my dough straight
I throw the wifey in some Dolce
And put some chains on my niggas like I own slaves
I get up
Look out the window hope the sun shining
Down on my niggas outhere front lining
I hit the streets and see them boys out here locking up some older head
So Goddamn homey, hold your head
And hold your head
I get up
I see the clouds from my window
I pray the sun gon' shine this way
And where I go as the wind blow
Momma your son gonna find his way
And if I gotta crawl I'mma make to the end though
Up to the top if climb my way
And tell 'em I'mma rise
I'm on my
Headed for the sky
I'm on my way
Paint a picture to show the deaf what it's like to listen
And speak the words and tell a blind man what he missin'
For all my niggas doin' time man up in prison
Felt you had to resort to crime, man fuck the system
We raisin' babies up in Hades where there ain't no hope
Ain't no fathers, don't take no scholarship to slang no dope
Politicians hollerin' bout problems but I ain't gon' vote
He talk about change
Still we floatin' in the same ol' boat
So tell me how I'm supposed to feel when the President spoke
When he ain't never had to struggle
Ain't never been broke
Ain't even roll through the ghetto ain't neva been close
Trustin' this government like trustin' the devil in oath
For rebel with quotes, I get up
Lifestyle of the young, black and reckless
A generation of niggas strapped and askin' questions
Like tell me why I ain't got shit
I let this liquor fill my liver with them toxics
As I sip
I get up
I see the clouds from my window
I pray the sun gon' shine this way
And where I go as the wind blow
Momma your son gonna find his way
And if I gotta crawl I'mma make to the end though
Up to the top if climb my way
And tell 'em I'mma rise
I'm on my
Headed for the sky
I'm on my way
Yeah, to all my niggas paper chasin'
I pray for your paycheck
Just keep the faith that you gon' make it one day you'll be cakin'
Takin' this shit one step at a time
That real shit is stuck in my mind
But to that bullshit I'm deaf and I'm blind
Destined to shine I'm a find a way
Cause hey
Dammit them jobs outthere ain't tryna pay
I pray
Granted nine to five is how you survive
I ain't tryna survive, I'm tryna throw my Momma in rides
I'm a provide for my seed I'm the soil
I teach 'em bout' loyalty
I teach 'em that his skin black like oil that's for royalty
I show 'em all the things that my pops was neva showin' me
Treat 'em like a growin' tree with this poetry
I get up
And show the sons how to lead not to follow
The present is our gift but our seeds got tommorow
So please niggas raise your kids
And help em' overcome that bull shit they daze us with
I blaze the shit
I get up
I see the clouds from my window
I pray the sun gon' shine this way
And where I go as the wind blow
Momma your son gonna find his way
And if I gotta crawl I'mma make to the end though
Up to the top if climb my way
And tell 'em I'mma rise
I'm on my
Headed for the sky
I'm on my way
Keep grinding brothers n sisters. Shit's hard but you gotta keep going.

After all these years this song still gives me chills like it’s my first time hearing it......#Classic #ColeWorld
play this song for someone and if they listen they will fall in love with jcole
I spent so much of my teenage years listening to J. Cole…
Theres something about this man that makes you Love him like that older brother or cousin that put you in your place when you needed it and always had your back at the same time.
Thank you Jermaine for the joy you have brought me and my Wife and children.
Yo this my favorite Cole song of all time man. Got me thru the worst FOREAL🙏🙏🙏
2019, August 12. In 2 years I’ll receive my masters degree.
GL bro
Blessings💯💯
Aye bro, you get that masters!!?!?
@@ace845ify its been 2 months not 2 years
Aye. Get that degree 💪.
Jammed to this song all through undergrad and law school. Would have it on through the best days and the worst days hoping my dreams would come true and the sacrifice was worth it. Now I’m a lawyer
Congrats fam, I love seeing comments like this fr J Cole the GOAT 🐐 🖤
Still my favorite Cole song of all time. My wake up alarm on my phone to this day
Still hearing this in 2023 And it still gets me out of bed with nothing but motivation on my mindset 💯
Listening to this song today, and remember five months ago my uncle had a week to live. He ended up stretching it one month, but it took the whole family spending time with him 24/7 to make his time stretch that far. I never stayed up so long with no drugs just coffee, but after every one or few hours of sleep I got daily for that month I put this song on while I woke up. I know it’s not exactly what the song is talking about, but ty cole world for the strength for that month. I’m okay, but I do miss my uncle. Honestly that last month he stretched out was the best time of my life. This song gave me so much strength to wake up to spend time with Unk’s. While praying my uncle woke up to.
God bless
hardest text in a while homeboy stay strong im sad rhis crazy shit happend to ur live damn we all been livin in the same dirt
feel for you family
Man shit really carried me through life for 10+ years
Real!!!!
bring this back Cole💪
Here August 20, 2017! This is one of the most inspiring songs J.Cole has ever made. It's still relevant but that damn instrumental with the extra Jazz sound is legendary yo. How you can you not like this!??? Great Motivation when going through a hard time!
I think I will never get tired of listening to this song !
9 to 5 is how you survive, I'm not trying to survive, I'm trying to throw my mama in ride's!!!
Deante Ellison yo wtf I read this shot exacly when he said it
I tell my gf this all the damn time. My mama is the only one the believes in me, man. lol. One love.
Imma provide for my seed, I’m the soil. I teach ‘em bout loyalty. I teach ‘em that his skin black like oil that’s for royalty!!
That's a play on Jay-Z's words on D'Evils when he said "9 to 5 is how you survive, I ain't tryna survive, I'm tryna live it to the limit and love it alive"
Best verse of the song
This giving me homecoming vibes
This is the J. Cole I reminisce of back in the day. ✌🏼❤️😎
