You Know, You Know Lyrics
You know, you know
Uh uh yeah
You know, you...
You know, you know
You know, you know
Uh uh
yeah
You know, you know
You know, you know
How the story go
You done jocked 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 (you know, you know)
Yeah, and you should let them boys know too
Show them niggas every single thing I showed you
I'm here feeling like 50 back in '02
And everybody sayin' I'm the man, 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 I'd 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 being scouted 'til I'm out it
Game time bitch I hope you're proud of us
King James shit watch me throw the powder up
This OG got my whole suite cloudin up
And I bet you I'll be outta time 'fore I'm outta luck
They ain't rootin' for me, they ain't clappin for me
I'm 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 (you know, you know)
You know, you know (x6)
Uh, please make your long story shorter
'Cause time is of 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 (you know, you know)
Yeah, so you can spare me all the accolades
I'm the reason you can find my city on a atlas page
Half a million dollars later and my taxes paid
And Im still spendin money from my acting days (you know, you know)
Damn, life is such a lovely thing
Feel the perks that a 7 figure budget bring
Tell your girlfriend that I can pull some fuckin strings
So were courtside when lebron get a fuckin ring
Yeah, I bet I be there, I be there
You see that '62 sittin' outside? That's me there
I'm jumpin' to the top this my leap year, prepare
I'm puttin' in that overtime I never said it'd be fair
I'm always left wishin' that I coulda 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' (you know, you know)
Damn, what happened to us
Life can always change, you have to adjust
How come when I gotta party you stare at me in disgust
They pay us just to have fun you should see that as a plus (you know, you know)
'Specially when I come flyin through the door
And kindly ignore
The paparazzi outside trying to record
Why has every woman never dined here before
Am I the only 23 year old wine connoisseur (you know, you know)
The (?) the Gaia's and the (?)
It's always nice when you're out with someone that notices
My condo got that art gallery openness
I'm just really hopin' that that isn't what your motive is (you know, you know)
They ain't rootin' for me, they ain't clappin' for me
I'm 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 (you know, you know)
You know, you know (x3)
