I Know

I know I know it's been hard Being alone I know it's been hard Don't you ever let that evil shit Get into your mental I heard it's been hard for you But I know that you'll get through Cause I can see the passion And the dreams that you been chasin' And if you come down crashin' By your side is where I'm waiting Yeah this the type of shit That I wish someone woulda told me I might've turned differently Considering the old me Who never knew himself And didn't focus when he supposed to I had to fight some battles But I think I finally got through Cause now I'm grippin' mics And shakin' hands, I can't imagine I love when I look out at crowds And see all the reactions To the shit we do I feel brand new, And now I can't turn back And be the old me who was so deep In memories of the past But now we growin' up Study all our city's greats Shout out to Haddy, Moses, Colton, Dean, respect to Trey They guided us through the scene When we learnin' and was lost I give y'all my respect though There still some dues I ain't pay off Nah, I been growin' up and wonderin' Just when I'm gon get my shot And I been waitin' round I'll make my time Well maybe, maybe not It's like it's hard not to go feel a burn When money's on a flop And you been runnin off yo ass Just to go make yourself a lot And it's like money's not the motive But you mothafuckas love it, shit Wish that I could have that shit I wish that I was wit it Like I know this shit is dope And know that lots of people spin it But I guess I'm wantin more, you know? A feelin' of fulfillment I know I know it's been hard Being alone I know it's been hard Yeah, yeah And so I can bounce around at places To go make a little money But the music scene in Rapid Gives me paychecks, but they funny And my life directed to the fame The glory and the money But I hope that I can keep my cool Through people that gon try me Steady thinkin' 'bout this thing We walk through called a life And how I'm gonna just go try my best And maybe I'm gon strive But see I'd love to sit here and speak 'Bout the plans up in my future To be honest I don't know like right From left to do with school shit Hate when mothafuckas Try to label me as clueless Now but I been sneaky 'bout my mental Since I was a young kid But no you'd just guess that I'd be dumb And have itty IQ bits But I'm steps ahead Like levels through the waves We bring the new shit I know the man in the mirror He's got some problems arising But he will never be the one To tell me I should stop trying Cause I just know who I am And all the effort I make Just to put it out there on the line And labeled as great They been bashing me they call me dumb Like I don't have heart This shit's been going on for years And it just tears me apart And man I work too damn hard Is this the thanks that I get? Maybe I should listen to them And be done with this shit The thoughts they circle round me rapidly But with a smile it's hard to see The pain and the passion that's Clashing in my mental constantly Don't think that I'm ready For this life that I'm choosin But I'll never make it out If I don't stick to the music Ya feel me?
