I Know

Lately, lately I haven't been whole
How do you forgive the murderer of your soul?
The bosses and the hoes
The people who were close
I might as well just be closed off

Life's been kicking drilling whipping hitting melanin tripping by the wicked
Working hard to get the ticket
Work as hard but don't get the ticket
Walking straight but still slippin
Others leverage sipping
I got goals that I ain't hitting
Hitting post time ticking
Just trying to do the most
But my attitude is ghost
When my flow is feeling coast
Forgetting that my parents worked so hard to clear the coast
Get educated get bread but don't burn the toast
I'm fighting to change my ways
(I can't hide, I can't hide)
Tired of making mistakes
(I can't hide, I can't hide)
If you keep repeating em it mean you ain't beating em
Changed behaviour is the best means of succeeding em (Word)
Entitlement is a curse
Place your pride back in your purse
Your actions can inflict hurt
From every angle like kurt
I'm ain't perfect but I'm trying to repent with every verse
The ink is my blood I hope my actions match my words

I know, I know, I know, I know
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
I know, I know, I know, I know
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
I know, I know, I know, I know
I ain't doing too well
I gotta pick myself up

I know, I know, I know, I know
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
I know, I know, I know, I know
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
I know, I know, I know, I know
We ain't doing too well
We gotta pick ourselves up

Lately
It's been
Crazy
Baby
Tryna
Figure out my path

Lately
We've been
Lazy
Baby
We've gotta
Figure out our paths

Tryna get a little bit of bliss
Tryna get more than a see you later kiss
Love hurts more than a smack on the wrist
Raise your kids right there's still a plot twist
Dreams come true by hardworking
Most bros come by fast twerking
Moving around they're networking
Growing apart when it ain't working
Can't see the light like a closed curtain
Hard to wake up with no purpose
Face your demons in person
Inner demons like usurping
Love yourself don't doubt yourself
No matter which God you serving
Be yourself the best version
Be yourself the best version
(Preach!)

I know, I know, I know, I know
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
I know, I know, I know, I know
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
I know, I know, I know, I know
I ain't doing too well
I gotta pick myself up

I know, I know, I know, I know
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
I know, I know, I know, I know
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
I know, I know, I know, I know
We ain't doing too well
We gotta pick ourselves up

Lately
We've been
Lazy
Baby
We've gotta
Figure out our paths
