Tems features American rapper, J Cole, on the twelfth track of her album "Born In The Wild," titled Free Fall, uncover the profound beauty of Free Fall lyrics below as they inspire, provoke introspection, and ignite a spark of self-discovery.

Tems & J. Cole - Free Fall Lyrics

Intro: Tems
I'm no angel, I have fallen too deep
And you watched me, then you fall in with me
I feel beautiful, I look beautiful too
Like an angel, angel

Verse 1: Tems
Hopeless, in the moment
I free fall straight into you
I don't know if I can fight what you do in my mind
Or and more can collide with you

Pre-Chorus: Tems
Sorry if you don't know what you're doing with me
How you do me wrong then call my name, my name?
Too late for you, babe, I don't think I can let you in
I'm not opened up anymore

Chorus: Tems
I can tell we don't belong
I would rather be alone
I had to run, I had enough, oh
I was the one who had to run, I had enough

Verse 2: J. Cole
Toxic, who would've thought what's coming was a plot twist?
Soon as you let mе in, you start hunting for the locksmith
Now the key I oncе had to your heart does not fit
I got three choices, batter your door or lock-pick
Or walk away confused at your logic
Back at my crib, cleanin' your clothes and your shoes out the closet
Thinking it to myself we s'pose to be in pools by the tropics
Soaking up the views but you choose to blow it up
No, you ain't used to going Dutch
So you refuse to see the truth 'bout who was out of pocket
It's all on me, huh?
Fuck it, take my credit card, let's ball out seaside
Devotion like the ocean how it start out knee-high
Then gets deeper and deeper till we are
Drowning in each other's arms, but the water's calm
How did we forget the calm was before the storm?
'Cause you saying ('Cause you saying)

Pre-Chorus: Tems
Sorry if you don't know what you're doing with me
How you do me wrong then call my name, my name?
Too late for you, babe, I don't think I can let you in
I'm not opened up anymore

Chorus: Tems
I can tell we don't belong
I would rather be alone
I had to run, I had enough, oh
I was the one who had to run, I had enough

While the 18-track project boasts collaborations with heavyweight rappers J. Cole and Asake, some fans are surprised by the lack of additional features. One fan expressed excitement on social media, stating, "Tems featured only Jcole and Asake on her 18 songs Debut album. It's going to be a rollercoaster of emotions on the album, the ones that criticized her saying she can't sing are going to see the global acceptance the album will receive and eat up their words."

The fourth track on Creed III soundtrack is Adonis Interlude by Dreamville and J Cole, read the most accurate lyrics to the Dr Dre-produced song below.

Dreamville & J. Cole - Adonis Interlude (The Montage) Lyrics

Intro
It's that time, huh

Verse
Things just ain't the same for young Jermaine
Still underrated but far from underpaid
And though some problems did fade, the hunger stayed
These stomach rumbles can humble thunder, uh
I'm still fueled by the ones that slumber
The standout amongst the one-hit wonders
So when the dust settles and the sun is under
The horizon, y'all should run the numbers, man
Uh, who the fuck want what with me?
Hardest out and I say that reluctantly
'Cause this should go without saying but y'all playing dumb
Far as thеse rappers go, I'm not fearing nonе
Cole flow is cold in any genre, with many combinations
Shoot like that boy's sponsored by Under Armour
Reach, you a goner
Arms crossed in coffin like you was from Wakanda
God's favorite, accumulated a ton of karma
As seen by me thumbing through green, I become a gardener
Pulling up in the supercharger
Me and two things like a double entendre
Nigga want beef, I'm a number nine combo
Not one designer in my ensemble
You're tuned to the realest, maybe to ever spill his
Heart until it’s drained, feel his pain, trust
Sixteen ain't enough to do it justice
Just cop The Fall Off and he'll explain
Is it the end of the chapter, happily ever after?
Bet this gon' be the year that fulfill his reign, man

Read the official lyrics to J Hope's highly anticipated solo single, On The Street, featuring J Cole, this song was produced by Pdogg.

J Hope & J. Cole - On The Street Lyrics

Chorus: J Hope
Every time I walk
Every time I run
Every time I move
As always, for us
Every time I look
Every time I love
Every time I hope
As always, for us (On the street, I'm still)

Verse 1: J Hope
내 두 발은 선뜻 걸어, anywhere
J in the air
가는 길이 희망이 되고자 하여, 나 구태여
Even my walk was made of
Your love and your faith
보답을 해, 저 멀리서라도 나비가 되어
Now, just walk lightly, whenever you want
Go on, hopefully, wherever you walk
누군가의 숨이 깃들어 있는 거리
내 영혼과 영원을 담을게
Everywhere (I'll be)

Chorus: J Hope
Every time I walk
Every time I run
Every time I move
As always, for us
Every time I look
Every time I love
Every time I hope
As always, for us (On the street, I'm still)

Verse 2: J. Cole
Yeah
All hail the mighty survivor of hell
Plopped down from heaven to sell
Holy water that I scooped from the well
Fought tooth and a nail
Just to prevail amongst the ruthless as I move through the field
Feelin' worried in a hurry like a two-minute drill
To make a couple mil' off a lucrative deal
Selling train of thought, name a artist who could derail
You'll never see it like a nigga hula-hooping in jail
I got a friend smart as fuck, but he stupid as hell
He swear that God ain't real
Since it ain't no way to prove it his self
As if the universe ain't enough
As if the volcanoes ain't erupt
As if the birds don't chirp
As if a trillion nerves don't work in the human body
Shit, who would I be?
Without the creator of this theater beside me to gently guide me?
Some days, I wonder if I need to pick a different hobby
I'm deep in with this rapping, it's all a nigga know
I never didn't nothing better, it's hard to let it go
But like a father watching his daughter
Walk down the altar with tears in his eyes
You gotta let her grow
And so I shall, but first, I been honing my style
Coldest around, with more quotables than what the quota allows
You see a top ten list, I see a Golden Corral, nigga
As the moon jumps over the cow
I contemplate if I should wait to hand over the crown
And stick around for a bit longer, I got a strange type of hunger
The more I eat, the more it gets stronger
The more it gets stronger
I said the more it gets stronger
​​j-hope, Cole World

Chorus: J Hope & J. Cole
Every time I walk (Every time I walk, yeah)
Every time I run (Every time I run on to you)
Every time I move (Every time I move)
As always, for us (Do this for us now)
Every time I look (Every time I look)
Every time I love (Every time I love)
Every time I hope
As always, for us (On the street, I'm still)
Every time I walk
Every time I run
Every time I move
As always, for us
Every time I look
Every time I love
Every time I hope
As always, for us (On the street, I'm still)

We've put together the official lyrics to J. Cole's new single, Procrastination, read the lyrics in a few scrolls. On "Procrastination (broke)," J. Cole discusses his influences, album work, and authenticity, he assures his listeners that his next album is in the works.

J. Cole - Procrastination (Broke) Lyrics

Intro
Yo
Ayo Scoob, ayo Scoob
My nigga, what's good? Word
Yessir, what's popping?
I'm coming through, hold up, hold up
Stay right there, I'm coming through, hol' up (Bvtman)
Hell yeah, can't believe I seen this nigga Scoob, man
It's crazy

Verse
Uh, don't you dare run from it
There's no bogeyman, it ain't coming to hurt you
I think acceptance is somewhat of a virtue
To look your truth dead in the face
Without tryna escape the regret or disgrace
I write these words aimlessly
But not without hope
That somehow I'll stumble on something that's dope
A clever lil' line, a thought to provoke
Myself and that listener digging for quotes, hеllo
I don't even know if somebody gon' hеar this
Got so many songs that get lost in the endless (Bvtman)
Folders of the hard drive, I wish I was more fearless
'Cause I'll just say, "Fuck it" and dump all the music
For niggas that hate it and niggas that use it
As fuel to push them through long nights at school
Writing that last minute paper for class
That's due in the morning
And I still relate to that procrastination for tasks
'Cause I need to finish this album
But hell, how many more times
Can I send this wooden pail down in that well
And pull it back up with the hope that it's filled?
Plus, it don't help that I'm rich now
So that means that I don't gotta deal
With stress of these creditors, calling my cellular
Like that young rapper that don't got a deal (Bvtman)
But do got the skill and do got the will
To make it no matter how long that it takes
For labels to see you or a song that'll break
And the rest of the world to catch on that he's great
Uh, how do you tap into hunger
When you don't gotta wonder
'Bout when your next meal is coming from?
Maybe you feel my conundrum
Or maybe the real is I’m so, um
Far removed from the struggles of everyday folks
My shit just ain't never gon' hit like it hit
When a nigga was a lil' more closer to broke (Broke)
Uh, but fuck it, the challenge be having me stoked
Throw in the towel? Man, you gotta be joking
I push my salary up with these quotes (Bvtman)
Now, I push the Lambo' truck down in the 'Ville
Hoping I connect with something that's real
Part of me wonders why I'm even still (Still)
Uh, holding on to this place
My momma been gone and my partners is straight, right?
Right

Outro
(Bvtman)
