"Wonder why" [x3]
|
|
[Intro - Wale talking]
|
Back on my hip hop shit ladies and gentlemen. Yeah
|
|
[Verse 1 - Wale]
|
Don't wonder why my hours long and I never tire
|
Because a nigga grind, well exceed a 9 to 5
|
Who fear of 9 to 5, seein' me again?
|
I came through with the Z's seaman on my pen
|
That's A.I.D.S. to the ill
|
L.A to the Chilly
|
East coast steal them W's that's raised up for real
|
Fellatio fetish broads know me, where I live
|
Brought dimes from Brazil, fuck the currency ya dig?
|
Still they wonder how I seem so confident
|
One can seem pompous, meanin' you just need to talk a bit
|
I ain't your regular rapper who just be talkin' shit
|
Listen to it a little closer, hear the gospel in it
|
I rhyme a noodle through the studio it's hallelujah
|
You dudes peep too early like ?
|
I should rhyme in the sewer
|
PepA¨Ï Le Pew my music
|
You ain't the reason why they came like the fries at Hooters
|
I'm beside the future
|
They can't get rid of it
|
I'm past/passed present, everyday is December 25th
|
Jolly ol' St. Nicholas take a pick
|
Admire my style, flier than kid Icarus
|
|
[Chorus - Mike Posner]
|
Just because you know me, you don't know me
|
I've been tryin' to do it big since '03
|
And I got a little big keepin' low key
|
Tryin' to keep up in my mind and you wonder why
|
Oh my mind
|
Don't wonder why
|
They're stayin' on my mind
|
|
[Verse 2 - Big Sean]
|
Better than whoever nigga, as is
|
I'm always dressed up but I never slack shit
|
So good I feel like I could be the 8th Wonder of the world
|
And the 9th is on the track bitch
|
I don't track until I go hoarse
|
Hear my voice and they pray that they never hear the chorus
|
Cause thinkin' logical to me was illogical
|
So I took a 'possible' and turned it into optical (look)
|
Seen blood, sweat and tears like a locker room
|
But you should take a look at where it got us to
|
We grind so when we shop out, we cop out, like precincts, even if it's not out
|
Bring your whole stock out
|
We ain't on the court but everything is gettin' boxed out
|
We got it on lock, you just locked out
|
Skinny jeans but a nigga's still hood
|
I bet they never thought they'd see a B.I.G. gone good
|
But I swear to God my bitch Bad Boy
|
And that's word to my nigga Bab boy
|
I saw Puff
|
I was finna speak
|
Nigga turned around and he recognize me
|
Damn
|
Now that's what the fuck you call dedication
|
Gettin' money? You still waitin' on your reparations
|
Weight of the world, I lived without preparation
|
And it's type to make a real nigga separation
|
|
[Chorus - Mike Posner]
|
Just because you know me, you don't know me
|
I've been tryin' to do it big since '03
|
And I got a little big keepin' low key
|
Tryin' to keep up in my mind and you wonder why
|
Oh my mind
|
Don't wonder why
|
They're stayin' on my mind
|
|
[Verse 3 - Kenn Starr]
|
I used to be the most humble until
|
I figured out that it don't matter for real
|
Not one arrogant, ill as a blood born pathogen that can kill
|
The reason why they had to give me a deal
|
Cause I'm gettin' it in
|
Like this the joint that can get me the spins
|
You get the point? Listen, this what it is
|
Here's the lesson, I'm a force to be reckoned with
|
Why would you question it man?
|
The course is a definite
|
I'm raw as I ever been in
|
You soft and you delicate
|
You should have a flower logo
|
I power awesome like Austin Powers with his mojo
|
Cross the powers, all devoured in a heartbeat
|
Sharper than Sharpies, I'm sharper than shark teeth
|
Start beef?
|
You could get it or your spouse
|
You'll be harder to find than diggin' in your couch lookin' for your car keys
|
Give her back with a sensitive mouth and some hard knees
|
From gettin' the jimmy like a car thief is
|
Wale and Kenn Starr, we
|
Outta ya league, we grand slam fans outta they seats
|
Let's get paper
|
And caked up like six layers of thick make up
|
On a self conscious chick overcompensating for A cups
|
|
[Chorus - Mike Posner]
|
Just because you know me, you don't know me
|
I've been tryin' to do it big since '03
|
And I got a little big keepin' low key
|
Tryin' to keep up in my mind and you wonder why
|
Oh my mind
|
Don't wonder why
|
They're stayin' on |
