You know you know
|
You know you know
|
|
[Verse 1]
|
Uh, you know you know how the story goes,
|
You done jock my style, you done stole my flow,
|
You done seen me out, you gets no hello,
|
And you wonder why? Man you know you know,
|
Yeah and you should let them boys know too,
|
Show them n-ggas every single thing I showed you,
|
Im here feeling like 50 back in '02, and everybody sayin I'm the man (big mike), so true,
|
Yeah but what does it take to feel secure?
|
A place with wooden floors and space to put awards,
|
A couple of parking spots and maids to do the chores,
|
The cars you always wanted, the women that you adore,
|
Well I got it, I got it,
|
I wonder if id be happy without it, I doubt it,
|
I try not to really think about it,
|
I made it but I'm still playin like I'm bein scouted til I'm outted,
|
Game top bitch, I hope youre proud of us,
|
King james sh-t watch me throw the powder up,
|
This old g got my whole suite cloudin up,
|
But I bet you I be out of time before I'm out of luck,
|
They aint routin for me, they aint clappin for me,
|
Im only sayin can somebody just be happy for me,
|
I really hate to say I told you so,
|
So I bite my tongue but you know you know,
|

[Verse 2]
|
Uhh, please make your long story shorter,
|
This time is for the essence for the king of first quarter,
|
Numbers do the talkin I have nothing for reporters,
|
I just hope we make these flights and don't get held up at the border,
|
Yeah so you can spare me all the accolades,
|
Im the reason you can find my city on an atlas page,
|
Half a million dollars later and my taxes paid,
|
And I'm still spendin money from my actin days,
|
Damn, life is such a lovely thing,
|
Feel the perks that a 7 digit budget bring,
|
Tell your girlfriend that I can pull some f-ckin strings,
|
So were courtside when lebron get a f-ckin ring,
|
Yeah, I bet I be there I be there,
|
You see that '62 sittin outside? Thats me there,
|
Im jumpin to the top its my leap year, prepare,
|
Putting in that overtime I never said it be fair,
|
Im always left wishin I could have done it in person,
|
My apologies to all of the ones I was hurtin,
|
I got new girls but none of they love is for certain,
|
And call old girls but none of they numbers are workin,
|
Damn what happened to us?
|
Life can always change, you have to adjust,
|
How come when I got a party you stare at me in disgust?
|
If it is just to have fun you should see that as a plus,
|
Especially when I come flyin through the door
|
And kindly ignore the paparazzi outside and tryin to record,
|
Why has every woman never dined her before?
|
Am I the only 23 year old wine connoisseur?
|
The Rothschild's, the Cru's, the 'Caias and the Opuses
|
Its always nice when youre out with someone that notices,
|
My condo got that art gallery openness,
|
Im just really hopin that that isn't what the motive is,
|
They aint routin for me, they aint clappin for me,
|
Im only sayin can somebody just be happy for me,
|
I really hate to say I told you so,
|
So I bite my tongue but you know you know
|
