J. Cole - She Knows Lyrics




[ Featuring Cults ]

[Intro:]
She knows, she knows
Oh I, oh I-I-I
Alright
Oh I, oh I-I-I
Alright

[Verse 1:]
Damned if I do, damned if I don't
You know I got a girl back home
You got a man but you want, but you want
What these bitches want from a nigga
That's some DMX shit
I know them other niggas love tricking
On some BMX shit, but not me
Now I'm sure you done heard about me
A black star, Mos Def, Kweli
Good southern bad hoes try me, they try me
This is Martin Luther King in the club gettin' dubs
With a bad bitch in his ear sayin' that she down for whatever
In the back of his mind is Coretta

[Hook:]
And she knows, she knows
And I know she knows, and I know she knows
And deep down she knows, she knows
And I know she knows, and I know she knows
Well alright
Oh I, oh I-I-I
I can't give you what you want from me
Well alright
Oh I, oh I-I-I
I can't give you what you want from me
Well alright

[Verse 2:]
Damned if I do, damned if I don't
I'm passing up on bad hoes, trying to be the man that she want
What she want, what she want from a nigga
To put a ring on it
Got a bitch on my dick right now
And she just want to sing on it
Got me up so high, trying to get a piece of that apple pie
I be up so high, trying to get a piece of that apple pie
Dance on fire, with my pants on fire
Cause I told her I was sleeping
Cause I creep with this pretty young thing I chose
That she could be doing the same thing I suppose

[Hook:]
And she knows, she knows
And I know she knows, and I know she knows
And deep down she knows, she knows
And I know she knows, and I know she knows
Well alright
Oh I, oh I-I-I
I can't give you what you want from me
Well alright
Oh I, oh I-I-I
I can't give you what you want from me
Well alright

Niggas say turn up, hoes say turn up
Only bad thing about a star is they burn up
Niggas say turn up, hoes say turn up
Only bad thing about a star is they burn up

Rest in peace to Aaliyah
Rest in peace to Left Eye
Michael Jackson I'll see ya
Just as soon as I die

Got me up so high, trying to get a piece of that apple pie
I be up so high, trying to get a piece of that apple pie
Got me up so high, trying to get a piece of that apple pie
I be up so high, trying to get a piece of that apple pie

[Outro:]
Well alright
Oh I, oh I-I-I
I can't give you what you want from me
Well alright
Oh I, oh I-I-I
I can't give you what you want from me
Well alright

J. Cole - She Knows Video
(Show video at the top of the page)


"She Knows" is a song by American rapper and record producer J. Cole, released on October 29, 2013, as the fourth single from his second studio album, Born Sinner. The song samples "Bad Things" by Cults and was produced by J. Cole.

After his Grammy Awards nomination, Cole revealed that he was working on another album with Kendrick Lamar, later revealed to be Born Sinner.

The lyrics intend Cole apologizing for cheating on his girlfriend, with a lack of sympathy by intending that "bad things were intended for him". He later expresses guilt about his seduction, ending the song.

Ten years after its release, "She Knows" trended on TikTok, being featured in 230,000 videos. The trend later deviated from regular activities to accusing rapper Sean Combs (known under the stage name Diddy) of deaths related to Aaliyah, Lisa Lopes, and Michael Jackson, referenced in the lyrics: "Only bad thing 'bout a star is they burn up/ Rest in peace to Aaliyah/ Rest in peace to Left Eye/ Michael Jackson, I'll see ya/ Just as soon as I die." Beyoncé was also adressed in the controversy, with allegations of her association with Diddy. People also suggest that the song's name, "She Knows", is a play on her last name, Knowles. No official evidence surrounds these allegations.

On September 30, 2024, the song was removed from YouTube amid controversy between SESAC and YouTube itself.
