    This verse just reflects where he is at right now with life and his whole homeless look and not giving a f---.

    Idk why he is still depressed though, he accomplished a great deal with FHD and did it his way. Thought the route of his depression was label pressures and not meeting his own standards with the first two albums, which he overcame with FHD?

    Cole not retiring. Not even close to it. I like where his mindset at tho. This whole s--- bout capitalism/corporations is important for our gen.

    If there was somebody up and coming who was like Cole i wouldn't mind if he retired after the next album, but there is literally nobody out there like him who can make songs like him while having such an emotional connection to his fans.

    I would like him to make this socially aware album, but just try to mask it into great melodies and sounds. I probably wont go thru 60+ minutes of preaching on constant basis.

    A song like No Role Modelz is a great example, it had a conscious message behind the record while having a good melody and a catchy hook.

    It ain't about the label and the music accomplishments... He thinking more on a humanitarian type s---... Like how can I go out here and floss and brag and be in this house when real s--- is going on.

    He is just dealing with his whole thoughts on BLM movement and social justice I'm sure. His obsession with money and riches he thinks it petty.

    But he has so much more left to say for sure... He aint going out like that!

    This track is dope AF, great opening for another episode of Cole season and following up to his last tracks on ROTD2.

    Cole finally found himself again. s--- is too easy. I don't know of many songs where his rap delivery has sounded better than this.

    This is dope but he can even do better. Light work. I ain't even stressing about this next album. Cole about to deliver once again.
