J cole saved my life in 2011. I was depressed (suicidal), broke, couldn't talk to a girl. I was introduced to j cole and this song with "Show me Something" "2faced" "Cheer up" got me through hard times it made me challenge myself to change. 11 years later I'm married, have a baby boy, more confident, and financial stable. Everytime I listen to this song I tear up a bit knowing I could've ended it all . Thanks j cole " I said IT WONT BE LONG..... Until we out here baby"
Thank you for this testimony. I had a similar experience a decade ago to where I’m at now, and I didn’t realize how much these old j cole songs I was bumpin back then inspired me.
I had a teacher back in NC that had J Cole in his class he said he walk the halls of terry Sanford with headphones in 100% of the time ...he knew j cole would make it big ...I got nothing but respect for j Cole
cole my therapist this track my struggle athem if i am to remix i be like "it won't be long (NO) fore we outta here baby first verse tranna cover my scars with bandages well the wound is deep six feet in my soul yung never never saw his pops always listened tto cole to find hope, huddle through the pain feeling i couldn't contain all i knew was pain Remember holding my brother as i saw the uv light close down on me I jus saw the light that i be longing fore but that ain't the circumstances i was hoping for As time went on i learnt to know that my brother's love covers the wounds that the surgeon gave me Mama it won't be long
wouldn't be surprised, he said it in Sideline Story ''Up in 1st class, laugh even though it's not funny See a white man wonder how the fuck I got money While he sit at coach, hate to see me walk past 'im Young black pants sag, headphones blastin'''

Brandon Jones bless up man keep pushing even when satan trys to trick u in to fake blessed(drugs)----money-----locked up----dead in a cell---(time wasted)
I used to listen to this in high school. And plotting on how to get my mom and I out the projects. I made it out but sadly she passed away before I could bring her along. RIP Momma
This song always helps. When it dropped I was starting my first semester in college. During the time, my mom was fighting cancer. I used this song as motivation to make it. Sadly, she passed the following January but got my degree because that's what she wanted. I still use it as motivation to make her proud.
I would stay up listening to his songs. Especially this one. Daydreaming of making a change in my life for great things. Im proud to say I accomplished everything I ever wanted and more. House, career, and a loving family. I saw my comment from years ago. I wish I can go back tell myself it will be alright.
Congrats!! That’s the best feeling coming back to a comment and seeing how much growth/impact you’ve had. No matter if you got that house, car or marriage. Amazing to see!!
I first heard J.Cole on the radio when they announced that Jay-Z signed a new dude to his new record label RocNation and they played Lights Please and i loved it and I looked him up and got the Warm Up then the Come Up and Blow Up, etc. I tried preaching his music to others but they turned me down and now they all know I've been riding with his since day 1. "One day I'm overrated the next day I'm a saviour/ you hated before you played it and I already forgave ya"
Forreal ! I used to try and get my classmates to listen to him and they would say no he's boring. and I was obsessed with his music because his words changed my life. I felt his music and I needed to share that with others. But anyways those same people ended up coming to me years later telling me "you were right" and all I say is.. I know
Goosebumps every time I hear this! "I'm feeling no good mamma I'm sick to my soul. Is there a better life for us? I just sit and I hope, I just hope and I pray it'll change one day I'll make a change one way" ❤️
I know cole will probably never read this but I just want to leave this here. Thank you for everything you have done for rap and thank you for the music you make. Your music has helped and impacted me a lot. I listen to you everyday and you will always be my inspiration.
Kendrick, J.Cole, Lupe, Logic, these guys help me not go insane. I have dreams, and songs like these give me more than hope... NOT wayne, ross, gucci, chief keef, soulja boy, nicki, or tyga... Kendrick,J.Cole, Lupe, Logic-These ARTIST inspire me to dream...
Aww Man! I Remember When I First Heard This Song. Every Word He Wrote Was Speaking To My Life!... Kiss My Mama On The Cheek Plenty Times,And Told Her It Wont Be Long! And To See Now To Finally Make It. Traveling The World.Putting Her In A New Home!
We need more mainstream rappers like this nowadays. Mainstream music is enough to make people think that rap is dead when in reality its still alive in hungry artists.
No "real" fan... Fan is a fan, whether you gained that fan yesterday, today, 2 days ago, or 5-6 years ago its a fan none the less... So ummm G.T.F.O.H 👋✌💯🙏
DRK SKIN OR DIE Okay, maybe not "real fan" but a bigger fan. If you listen to this song you probably listen to a lot of other less popular (really good), older tracks. If you listen to more of his music you'd be able to appreciate him more as an artist, right?
Okay just finished listening to 4 your eyez only and I got reminiscent of his mixtapes so I thought I'd listen to one of my first and favorite j cole songs that got me hooked to his music.
cole my therapist this track my struggle athem if i am to remix i be like "it won't be long (NO) fore we outta here baby first verse tranna cover my scars with bandages well the wound is deep six feet in my soul yung never never saw his pops always listened tto cole to find hope, huddle through the pain feeling i couldn't contain all i knew was pain Remember holding my brother as i saw the uv light close down on me I jus saw the light that i be longing fore but that ain't the circumstances i was hoping for As time went on i learnt to know that my brother's love covers the wounds that the surgeon gave me Mama it won't be long
Fuck the radio Cole your music is playing in our minds, hearts and souls. It won't be long for all the huastlers out there trying to make it through even for their mothers. Peace and love
The one rapper that can sing about everyones everyday struggles in life, and make it into beautiful music.... This song is just hands down amazingly put together. We need to just appreciate this type of work.
who dat was the first j. cole song I heard and it showed on 106 & park. at first I ain't like him until I heard this song circa 2009-2010 (freshman year) and since then I've became big fan. listening to this song brings back memories man.
Thats pretty ill to hear that who dat was also y'all first cole song, same as me! I did like his flow since the beginning and that beat go hard with the brass instrumentation, after that I've been following his career and growth and maaaan even though he has improved a lot musically, I still enjoy coming back to these songs that sound amazingly great as well!
I love to come back to all of j cole old songs that r not even on his mixtape. This song help me through middle-school n high school n currently almost done with college. Thx Cole for the inspiration and drive
Dang, it's 2021 about to be 2022. I remember listening to this EVERYDAY back in like 2010, when I was trying to make it out and come up. Songs like this and others from Cole helped get me through. Fast forward, and I done accomplished most things I set out to back then. Feels like the time flew by. "It Won't Be Long" is definitely accurate.
J Cole rap that hope. He paint pictures. He will always be my favorite artist. I swear we relate so much. Around the same age. His music just hits your soul. Soul Cole
+Anthony zuniga pinon Wasn't, he has alot of influencese, by any greats as any great rapper does, but him Number#1 influence/inspiration/idol, Is definitely Nas Just off the Song "Let Nas Down" you know that
yo, this nigga's music makes you feel like your struggling with him and reaching the top with him. he takes you on this journey, and if your an artist also, his music inspires and motivates you. like "we almost there". we almost makin it.
"It Won't Be Long" [Chorus] Uh, yeah I said it won’t be long (no) ‘fore we out here baby Gotta get you up out here baby Said it won’t be long ‘fore we out here baby We up out here baby [J. Cole Verse 1] I say a prayer and look up in the sky Thank God even though a n-gga headed to this tired day job Will my eyes stay wide Still I know I’m gonna blow This is music for my n-ggas cause I know you want more Cause that old sh-t fake and this new sh-t real J Cole not Jay witness that Blueprint feel Hey Cole is you crazy thats some big boots to fill Yeah straight out the Ville and the shoes fit well Same heaven same hell Same n-ggas get killed Knew every detail still never would tell Scared of the repercussion Scared of them people bussin Bullets be hittin’ n-gga’s you swear they could be percussion N-ggas be holding triggers before they could read instructions Oh God, never did our fathers teach us nothing No law, but became a man on my own Showed my momma I could stand on my own [Chorus] Uh, yeah I said it won’t be long (no) ‘fore we out here baby Gotta get you up out here baby Said it won’t be long ‘fore we out here baby We up out here baby [J. Cole Verse 2] Dear mama, your son hurting Living in this cold World where n-ggas shun virgins And praise hoes As days go by shawty 19 years old No clothes for her baby yet she stay so fly Tell me why mamma do you cry Is it cause you know my teacher be feeding me lies Is it cause you know that Preacher is greedy inside Cause racism is alive I see the disguise Mamma I know it hurts It hurts me to watch you go to work barely hanging on Some rich man getting richer while you slaving for him So whats the options for him A young n-gga from the hood without a pops at home Surrounded by no good And soon no good becomes so good quick A little drug money got him feeling so hood rich Killing your hood with the same sh-t Ronald Reagon filled up your hood with And it’s still in your hood sh-t I’m feeling no good mamma I’m sick of my soul Is there a better life for us I just sit and I hope I just hope and I pray It’ll change one day I’ll make a change one way And mamma I can fly you out this cold World This cold life, it’s all wrong There’s no right Its hard to see the good when there’s no light Just grrab onto me, trust me hold tight! [Chorus] Uh, yeah I said it won’t be long (no) ‘fore we out here baby Gotta get you up out here baby Said it won’t be long ‘fore we out here baby We up out here baby
hey cole is you crazy that's some big boots to fill..... yea. str8 out the vill and them shoes fit well.....best rapper alive, it was an honor to meet him
this song always gets me teary-eyed.... it doesn't have to be a sad song to do so as we all know of course is this the point in my life when I first heard this song back in late 2010 I just turned about 23(I'm 29 now) I was traveling a lot around that time I didn't have a girlfriend but I know a handful of wonderful women wonderful people overall I was at a pretty decent job the only downside was that my uncle passed away earlier this year (2010) besides that this year was pretty much a decent here over all for me Rae Sremmurd Lil Uzi vert Lil yachty those guys did not exist overall LOL that was the biggest Better part!!
One of Cole's realest songs. CLASSIC. J. Cole is a forever will be my favorite rapper. I hate it when people compare him yo Drake or Wayne, He's on an entirely different level and if you dont like him, what you here reading my comment for?
J. Cole is rehabilitating rap...and turning it back into Hip Hop. Love this dude, im a 22 year old female who has Never been able to relate to any rapper better. Dude has something to say that the world need to hear.
Cole performed this in 2011 @ house of blues in AC, after the bar, "racism is alive I see it disguised" He shouted "Donald Trump!" real quick before continuing the verse. The man's a prophet #truestory

We bump J Cole out here in Kenya. His music is a gift to our souls.

Fast forward, and I done accomplished most things I set out to back then. Feels like the time flew by. "It Won't Be Long" is definitely accurate.
I needed this
J Cole rap that hope. He paint pictures. He will always be my favorite artist. I swear we relate so much. Around the same age. His music just hits your soul. Soul Cole
"shorty 19 years old no clothes for her baby yet she stays so fly." Such an empathetic MC, more blessings to this dude.
My heart feels warm everytime i remember these classics , this shit part of me
I hope he gets grammies and stuff and go beyond his idol nas , but still hold his essence as a artist tho
His idol was canibus....
+Anthony zuniga pinon Wasn't, he has alot of influencese, by any greats as any great rapper does, but him Number#1 influence/inspiration/idol, Is definitely Nas Just off the Song "Let Nas Down" you know that
6 years later , he won a grammy last year on feature with 21savage on the record "A Lot ".

#DreamVilleDotTry
Realist song still even in 2020!!
Still listening in 2017 and this song still gives me goosebumps everytime I listen to it...
My favourite Cole song
If you still here in 2022 you are a certified Cole fan.
Thank God for j Cole ✊✊
"It Won't Be Long"
[Chorus]
Uh, yeah
I said it won’t be long (no)
‘fore we out here baby
Gotta get you up out here baby
Said it won’t be long
‘fore we out here baby
We up out here baby
[J. Cole Verse 1]
I say a prayer and look up in the sky
Thank God even though a n-gga headed to this tired day job
Will my eyes stay wide
Still I know I’m gonna blow
This is music for my n-ggas cause I know you want more
Cause that old sh-t fake and this new sh-t real
J Cole not Jay witness that Blueprint feel
Hey Cole is you crazy thats some big boots to fill
Yeah straight out the Ville and the shoes fit well
Same heaven same hell
Same n-ggas get killed
Knew every detail still never would tell
Scared of the repercussion
Scared of them people bussin
Bullets be hittin’ n-gga’s you swear they could be percussion
N-ggas be holding triggers before they could read instructions
Oh God, never did our fathers teach us nothing
No law, but became a man on my own
Showed my momma I could stand on my own
[Chorus]
Uh, yeah
I said it won’t be long (no)
‘fore we out here baby
Gotta get you up out here baby
Said it won’t be long
‘fore we out here baby
We up out here baby
[J. Cole Verse 2]
Dear mama, your son hurting
Living in this cold World where n-ggas shun virgins
And praise hoes
As days go by shawty 19 years old
No clothes for her baby yet she stay so fly
Tell me why mamma do you cry
Is it cause you know my teacher be feeding me lies
Is it cause you know that Preacher is greedy inside
Cause racism is alive I see the disguise
Mamma I know it hurts
It hurts me to watch you go to work barely hanging on
Some rich man getting richer while you slaving for him
So whats the options for him
A young n-gga from the hood without a pops at home
Surrounded by no good
And soon no good becomes so good quick
A little drug money got him feeling so hood rich
Killing your hood with the same sh-t Ronald Reagon filled up your hood with
And it’s still in your hood sh-t
I’m feeling no good mamma
I’m sick of my soul
Is there a better life for us I just sit and I hope
I just hope and I pray
It’ll change one day I’ll make a change one way
And mamma I can fly you out this cold World
This cold life, it’s all wrong
There’s no right
Its hard to see the good when there’s no light
Just grrab onto me, trust me hold tight!
[Chorus]
Uh, yeah
I said it won’t be long (no)
‘fore we out here baby
Gotta get you up out here baby
Said it won’t be long
‘fore we out here baby
We up out here baby
Needed this 🤝🎶
this is when i loved cole

this song always gets me teary-eyed.... it doesn't have to be a sad song to do so as we all know of course is this the point in my life when I first heard this song back in late 2010 I just turned about 23(I'm 29 now) I was traveling a lot around that time I didn't have a girlfriend but I know a handful of wonderful women wonderful people overall I was at a pretty decent job the only downside was that my uncle passed away earlier this year (2010) besides that this year was pretty much a decent here over all for me Rae Sremmurd Lil Uzi vert Lil yachty those guys did not exist overall LOL that was the biggest Better part!!
For my family cuz long live the people
11 years later and this is still one of his best songs
The new Zealand massacre got me messed up, needed some j Cole therapy...

One of Cole's realest songs. CLASSIC. J. Cole is a forever will be my favorite rapper. I hate it when people compare him yo Drake or Wayne, He's on an entirely different level and if you dont like him, what you here reading my comment for?
One of the best songs in hip hop history.
1:46 “because racism is alive, i see the disguise” i definitely felt that 😭😭

Cole got enough unreleased classics to release a Care Package
J. Cole is rehabilitating rap...and turning it back into Hip Hop. Love this dude, im a 22 year old female who has Never been able to relate to any rapper better. Dude has something to say that the world need to hear.
Gotta get you up out of here baby..
Represent Jermaine. Represent.
Used to listen to this freshman year of college. Love J. Cole
Such a nostalgia. It’s crazy how time flies. 13 years ago I was a sophomore in high school. Listening to this
Cole performed this in 2011 @ house of blues in AC, after the bar, "racism is alive I see it disguised" He shouted "Donald Trump!" real quick before continuing the verse. The man's a prophet #truestory
zbomber35 are you saying he said donald trump in reference to racism is alive I see it disguised, or are you trying to say he is for trump.
Kay gotsole The former.
