you know, you know

you know you know

you know you know

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

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

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
