以下是J Cole的《No Role Modelz》的歌詞:
Verse 1:
Yeah, I ain't no role model, no, I ain't a role model
Can't tell me I'm a good man, no, you can't tell me that
I ain't perfect, I ain't flawless, I ain't a poster child
But I'm trying to do my part, to make this world a better place
Chorus:
No role modelz, no, I don't want none
I ain't trying to be the best, I just want to be myself
No role modelz, no, I don't want none
I ain't trying to be the best, I just want to be myself
Verse 2:
I ain't perfect, I ain't flawless, I ain't a poster child
But I'm trying to do my part, to make this world a better place
But if you want to judge me by my past mistakes
Then you can judge me by my mistakes, 'cause I ain't trying to be your idol
I ain't trying to be your hero, I just want to be me
And if you don't like what you see, then you can leave me alone
Chorus:
No role modelz, no, I don't want none
I ain't trying to be the best, I just want to be myself
No role modelz, no, I don't want none
I ain't trying to be the best, I just want to be myself
Bridge:
I don't need no praise for what I do, I don't need no awards
I just want to live my life and make my own way in this world
So if you don't like what you see, then leave me alone with my pride
I'm just being myself and that's what makes me happy
Chorus:
No role modelz, no, I don't want none (no)
I ain't trying to be the best, I just want to be myself (be myself)
No role modelz, no (no), I don't want none (none)
I ain't trying to be the best (best), I just want to be myself (myself)
Outro:
So if you don't like what you see, then you can leave me alone with my pride (myself)
I ain't nobody's ideal (nobody), just living my life in my own way (way)
