      man its easy huggin the block is slang for selling drugs so basically he's saying that he used to sell drugs all day and had no where to go before his wife showed up and gave him a home and family. the previous verse is about where he used to live where boys stand on the corner selling drugs till the cops shows up, then he packed up a bag and sent it up north where he ran into his wife.

    [Verse 1: Johnny Venus]
    That nigga back from the dead, yeah
    I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
    Nigga almost lost his head, yeah
    Try to run, try to fly, try to float
    Candles on top of the dresser
    Baby, you down, need to bless up
    Better watch how you address us
    Playing no games, no dress-up
    I got an idea
    Let's shoot Wild 'N Out in my hood, talkin' right here
    Academy Award-nominated performance, yeah
    Let the AK spray straight for four minutes, yeah
    That's a monologue, talking to the fog, fuck an ordinance, yeah
    [Chorus: Johnny Venus]
    I make sacrifices, bloody sacrifices
    Cutthroat, rabbit's toe, I suppose
    Maybe that's what life is
    [Verse 2: Johnny Venus]
    Ayy, man, cavemen
    Two drinks, cave in
    Few blunts, ease up
    Ooh yeah, please up
    Who cares? Who there?
    Do what? Wake up
    The hell, heaven
    We want, heads up
    Hey you, yeah, you
    Mother fuck, brother fuck
    Sister fuck, family fuck
    The system, get some
    Hey you, day two
    Yeah, you, you, you
    You a vege', do the dance
    Table, get low
    Chopped cheese, knot knees
    Boy, please, whatever
    You next, to death
    To go, ooh, oh
    Who's that? Ring ring
    Your number, bling-bling
    Call it up, chalk it up
    Move over
    [Chorus: Johnny Venus]
    I make sacrifices, bloody sacrifices
    Cutthroat, rabbit's toe, I suppose
    [Verse 3: Smino]
    See a nigga in all red from the North with the pole
    It ain't Santa Claus
    Brought my gifts to Atlanta, I'm Atlanta Claus
    I can smell you pussy with the panties off, I
    Been gettin' to the bread, tryna keep this shit low
    But it ain't workin', my
    Circle on fire like a circus now
    Around the same niggas I been around, so
    Of course, I (Of course, I), endorse my (Endorse my)
    Ratchet ass nigga from the North Side (North Side)
    It's astigmatism, you got poor sight (Poor sight)
    Let the bitches forget it, I do it Alzheim'
    Of course I (Of course I), gotta voice my (Voice my)
    Opinion on that ass when you walk past
    (On bro, that shit groovy, ayy)
    Niggas pull strings like a guitar, guitar
    G-Star jeans on my sneakers
    I'm a real soulful nigga, collard greens inside your speakers (Yeah, yeah)
    Ferguson days on Castro, wasn't no cash flow
    But I'm good for the arch, I'm Dr. Scholl's
    I'm good for your heart, let me snatch your soul, soul, soul
    [Chorus: Johnny Venus]
    Bloody sacrifices
    [Verse 4: Saba]
    Yeah, ayy
    Look at what a motherfucker do for the cash intake
    They'll be right across your head like it's Ash Wednesday
    You got to just get off your ass like your ass is fake
    You can't sit, and if we ain't siblings, then I can't relate
    To they shit, I'm Asic, I run shit, I got it jumpin' like pump fake
    I don't need nothing but one take
    I'm from the part of the city where young nigga keep him a nine like one plus eight
    Our politician a fuckface
    Corrupt like a Dogg Pound Gangsta
    We duel like a small town wager
    How I'm the dropout major
    Success stories, I favor
    Used to cover my scars, out here tryna cover The Fader
    Yeah, Pro Tools, knobs, and the faders
    Tell pigs as-salamu alaykum
    You ain't 'bout static like AM radio, ain't even play him
    I put my heart and my all in my art, I'm alternate
    All of them are the same, it's harder to tell 'em apart some days
    I thought I'd call 'em out altogether
    Rather than waste the amount of bars it'll take for me to call 'em out by name
    Caught a glimpse of the alternate world I've introduced to you
    Via the studio, got 'em studying our mixtapes
    I'm from the hood like my mama, put that on my mama
    I lay the law down like parliament, all just with a pen and page
    [Chorus: Johnny Venus]
    I make sacrifices, bloody sacrifices
    [Verse 5: J. Cole]
    You can't be everything to everybody
    I wanna be your lover, your best friend
    Your Batman, Spider-Man
    Fighter pilot shooting down your rivals and
    I wanna damn near kill you to be the one that heal you up
    I wanna be the one that feel you up
    On nights when you need good dick to cheer you up
    I wanna be the one to build you up
    A wall worth five billion bucks to keep out the rah-rah
    And the blah-blah-blah so nobody try to steal your thunder
    Pull you under
    Toss my hopes out, Royal Rumble
    We done moved out to the boondocks
    Built a big house, there he wonders
    How somewhere along the way
    He went from Huey to Eddie Wuncler
    I been so disconnected, my perspective is ignorant
    When you rich, niggas don't wanna correct you
    Say something crazy, they won't interject
    Do every drug that you want, they gon' let you
    Dangerous when it's nobody to check you
    I be havin' to check myself
    Nigga, stop holding that money, you know you got plenty
    I be havin' to spread my wealth
    I used to be at the crib myself
    7 years old, off of Bragg Boulevard
    Where they bag up the raw
    They gon' stand on the corner, one hand on they balls
    And they ran when the cops come, there go the laws
    Then I packed up a bag and I trapped it up north on the path of a star
    And I ran into you like I met you before
    Now damn, me and you goin' half on a boy, sing
    [Verse 6: J. Cole]
    Huggin' the block, huggin' the block all day
    I had nowhere to go, she gave me a place to stay
    She gave me her heart to hold, I still got that shit to this day
    She ridin' with me on the road, she ridin' with me in the A
    Huggin' the block, huggin' the block, okay
    She gave me the gift of my son, and plus we got one on the way
    She gave me a family to love, for that, I can never repay
    I'm crying while writing these words, the tears, they feel good on my face, hey
    [Refrain: J. Cole]
    And yesterday could feel just like a waste, yeah
    If I don't love you how I'm supposed to
    And yesterday could feel just like a waste, yeah
    If I don't love you how I'm supposed to
    [Chorus: Johnny Venus]
    I make sacrifices, bloody sacrifices

      Do it fast Eminem inspired me to write my first rap a few years ago and I'm getting pretty good. When I get a good mic, and a place I can record without having to keep it quiet, and grow up a little bit so I sound a little better and like a grown up, I genuinely believe it'll all workout for me. You gotta start as soon as possible though.

      @@CrimZonOnYT love this mentality. No idea how old you are but as long as you keep consistent you can achieve whatever you believe in. And the sooner you start the better.
      People often overemphasize the importance of "natural" talent and severely undervalue hard work. Natural talent without work ethic is useless. And very, very, very few people actually have God given natural talent.
      Go listen to Kendrick Lamar's very early work. It's pretty bad, and clearly just copying people like Lil Wayne. Is Kendrick so good because he has a natural gift? No, he's so good because he puts in the work, day in and day out. Same for J Cole and so many others.

      @@CrimZonOnYT actually checked them both out. Lyrically you ain't bad. Obviously mixing and mastering isn't very good but that's normal.
      I think your voice isn't bad necessarily, but it sounds like you're trying to be quiet or something. I get that if you live with parents or something, but if you could be more expressive and natural with your voice that'd sound better for sure.
      Also in my opinion super fast rap is cool but i would wait until you get your voice and flow down better before going for fast stuff. harder to keep on the beat and enunciate correctly.
      All in all, keep grinding bro. Keep making songs, keep posting them. You'll look back in a year and be amazed how much better you are. And you'll keep being able to do that every year. 5 years from now of consistent work and you could easily be close to the level of people like Kendrick.
      Keep writing, keep recording, keep studying the greats, and keep grinding. Keep your work ethic high and you'll be successful. I believe in you brother!

    I am a recovering alcoholic. It was around the time this DREAMVILLE project came out when I was at the worst point of my alcohol addiction. I remember getting so drunk and I would listen to this song on repeat until I completely passed out. I remember listening to this song when I hit rock bottom and blacked out for a whole day. Listening to it again put tears in my eyes and I thank God for pulling me out of the hell I put myself into back then.
    edit: It's been three years this month guys and I am still sober and it's crazy how much my life changed these three years. I went to university for a degree in IT and I'm currently running a small print bussines. Thank you so much for the love and kind words. I never knew I could find kindness and the support to continue from absolute strangers. For anyone else who is starting on their alcohol recovery ....DO NOT STOP. YOU WILL HEAL. Just keep making the SACRIFICES. Love you all❤️❤️
