Success is in the effort, so if a nigga tried his hardest I'm at peace knowing God ain't deal it in this group of cards for me
- J Cole

Izuku POV

Today was Saturday and dad went to the Hero Council to update his hero license apparently he forgot. He left early this morning leaving me alone, knowing I would be home alone for most of the day I planned to go to the Workshop to make some updates to my hero costume. Getting up from my place on the couch where dad left me hours prior I headed to the bathroom to clean myself up. After coming out of the shower and getting dressed I packed my duffle bag with some of my notes from the night before I made some cereal and ate it quickly. Grabbing my favorite hoody I left my apartment and walked to the bus stop.

While waiting I took out my phone and earbuds and put on my favorite song to get me pumped

Heaven's EP by J Cole lyrics down below

With every record, I be asking the masses to tune your hearts to me
I represent intelligent niggas that grew up harshly

Or has the money watered me down, that truth is hard for me
Like the second time I got cut from the junior varsity
Fightin' back tears, I promised to switch gears
And said to myself "Whatever you do, you won't do it partially"
From this day forward, I move with a new ferocity
Ferrari coupe velocity, a fail-proof philosophy
Success is in the effort, so if a nigga tried his hardest
I'm at peace knowing God ain't deal it in this group of cards for me

Maybe deep down, I'm afraid of my luminosity
So when you see me on red carpets, I'm movin' awkwardly
Posin' all nervous, afraid of the judgement
And the thought of showin' too much of my day is repugnant
I be keepin' my kids away from the gaze of the public
'Cause these days, it feel like hate is they favorite subject

Aimed at your brain, violate, and I bust it
I don't play when it come to family, that's one thing I refuse
Pimpin' they kids out for views or just to be in the news
Could never be me, I piss in the celebrity tea
God with me on this record, this is Heaven's EP
The tale's official, the best nigga breathing, it just failed to hit you
You couldn't tell 'cause you fell for the bells and whistles
And that's an area I don't excel

That's raw, never saw one person go to Yale
But every nigga that I know done gone to jail
At least once, provin' we the one's police hunt
For the pains, we smoke three blunts the size of tree trunks

I'm goin' for it, no never shall he punt
I'm the one and you can be sure, speaking of beachfront
I'm kickin' my feet up while I write this in somewhere tropical
Supposed to be relaxin', this passion makes that impossible, mm

As the song ended I reflected upon the lyrics with many of the issues stated in the song applied to me in certain circumstances. J Cole was one of the many great veteran rappers of this generation with his songs always being in my playlist. The thing that separated J Cole from the other rappers was his reliability and his storytelling. It might be a secret but his songs always got me out of dark places. It seemed he was there for me in the form of his songs and I instantly became a stan.
