As thistitle implies, this song is about J’s lack of role models growingup. However, he applies this in a broader sense than just himself beingdevoid of a father figure. Indeed he attacks Hollywooditself for its focus on superficial people, especially when itcomes to women.

For example, the chorus of the song is about a woman who ‘doesn’t want to be saved’. This is pertaining to the type of ladies who are caught up in a questionable lifestyle that may be espoused by reality TV shows, with Cole directly attacking the female participants of these programs. This is somewhat ironic considering that most of J’s lyrics are based on his sensual exploitation of these selfsame women. However, his ultimate disposition seems to be something to the effect of it is only these types of shorties he has to choose from since ladies are now being socialized to be shallow and promiscuous. And for the most part, his criticisms seem to be aimed at the type of women he interacts with in Los Angeles as a direct result of his “B-list celebrity” status.

J laments that he wasn’t born in an earlier age where apparently he would have had a more-preferable selection of females to choose from. Then he brings the song to an end by exclaiming that although the ladies referred to throughout the track are indeed superficial, having affairs with them is very enjoyable.
