J. Cole - Cousins

Some lyrics from J. Cole's song "Cousins", include:

"Cousin in jail again, askin me for bail again,
close when I was 12, but I was much frailer then,
he was like 16 a n***a from the gutter and."

He later continues to say:

"12 years later on the radio that Who Dat song ( a well known song by J. Cole ),
your homeboy bumps the "Warm Up" ( well known mix tape by J. Cole )  now you buggin',
cause you lookin at the cover and you say "Yo that's my cousin"."

In this song J. Cole tells the story of a lost relationship between him and his cousin.
As there relationship falls apart, his cousin falls into a path that leads him to jail, while J. Cole goes on to become a famous rapper. Now that the cousin sees J. Cole is rich and famous, he wants to rebuild his relationship with Cole.
