Crooked Smile (Explicit) - J. Cole/TLC

Written by：J. Cole/Meleni Smith/Rich Harrison

I'm on my way on my way on my way down

I'm on my way on my way on my way down

You're the one that was tryna keep me way down

Like a sudden all you know if I'm on my way down

Look they tell me I should fix my grill cause

I got money now

I ain't gon' sit around and front like

I ain't thought about it

A perfect smile is more appealing but it's funny how

My sh*t is crooked look at how far

I done got without it

I keep my twisted grill

Just to show them kids it's real

We ain't picture perfect but we worth the picture still

I got smart I got rich and I got b**ches still

And they all look my eyebrows: thick as hell

Love yourself girl or nobody will

Oh 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

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

You wake up put makeup on

Stare in the mirror but its clear that

You can't face what's wrong

No need to fix what God already put his paint brush on

Your roommate yelling

“Why you gotta take so long?”

What it's like to have a crooked smile

I'm on my way on my way on my way down

I'm on my way on my way on my way down

This crooked smile

You're the one that was tryna keep me way down

Like a sudden all you know if I'm on my way down

To all the women with the flaws

Know it's hard my darling

You wonder why you're lonely and

Your man's not calling

You keep falling victim cause you're insecure

And when I tell you that

You're beautiful you can't be sure

Cause you see that no one wants you back

And it got you asking

So all you see is what you lacking

Not what you packing

Take it from a man that loves what you got

And baby you're 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

Cause what's real is something

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 friend

And if you need a friend to pick you up

I'll be around

And we can ride with the windows down
