The Fall-Off is the latest album from J. Cole, and if one thing is for certain, it is that the artist has delivered us a modern rap epic. There are 24 tracks to get through right now. The fourth song on the album is called "Run A Train," and it has a truly gorgeous instrumental. In fact, one thing that is for certain about this album is that the production is out of this world. Of course, so is the rapping. This is another storytelling track from Cole, who is using every single trick in his playbook to craft a beautiful new song. This is absolutely one of those songs that we will have to revisit.

Quotable Lyrics from Run A Train

They say the Lord's timing is divine
And I walk with Him, so that explains mine
Cold deep down you may find
All that pain creates a strange bond
