I Know

(album: 431 Days - 2012)

[OG Bigga Rankin':]
Now that your perspective has changed, now you doing this shit
The different heartbreaks, the different sacrifice, the different struggles
Man explain this to me dawg, how you do this shit?

[Trouble:]
Head to the sky like I'm looking for a bird
Must have found one cause my life being full of shit there go a turd
Drop right on my face, is this the place that I'm supposed to be in?
What I'm asking God, I been holding my fam down but got nothing but problems in my life
People don't understand the differences between the wrongs and rights
What's necessary, what's beneficial to get it right
What consequences bullshit bring to you, won't catch me beefing it up
I'd rather eat it up than settle for a quick check
Knowing I'ma spend it so before I do that
Stay independent is what I'ma do
Niggas think they'll be rich if they just sign right quick
To a label then be unstable once the money is spent (you in the red now)
All the people who you was taking pictures with don't give a shit no mo'
All the ones you hit the road with done closed doors
Now ya walking round with ya head down
They just show love cause ya song was playing in the club
Yeah I know

[Tyree Thomas:]
When everything good see everybody you know
When it all falls down then they all seem to go, yeah I know
It's like a gun when you face it yeah I know, yeah I know
Nowhere to run when that place yeah I know
When everything good see everybody you know
When it all falls down then they all seem to go, yeah I know
What to dream for in life yeah I know, yeah I know
What to dream for in life yeah I know

[Trouble:]
Forgot everybody become ya friend, when the ends end
See how everybody act like you a ghost when the money goes
You find out who really your people, who you can trust, who love ya, when you down and out bad
They still sticking round for the drag
It seems, people do anything for a dollar
They will, do anything to be noticed
Ain't no controlling it, the lust for fame won't change, it'll only worsen
Females don't wanna have careers, only want purses
And dudes don't wanna have careers, just wanna screw the women
Have they name ringing maybe a chain swinging, none of that equals any paper though
Have you thought about when ya trend run out?
Will you be stable for?
The long run in a hard time that life forever been taking us through
Or did you think everything sweet and forever your people will eat
Everyone that's different from you, I know what I dreamed for and I strive for it
I just thank God I'm alive for it

[Tyree Thomas:]
When everything good see everybody you know
When it all falls down then they all seem to go, yeah I know
It's like a gun when you face it I know, yeah I know
Nowhere to run when that place yeah I know
When everything good see everybody you know
When it all falls down then they all seem to go, yeah I know
What to dream for in life yeah I know, yeah I know
What to dream for in life yeah I know
