I Know

Never understood why people let this happen
Some hate on success as a natural reaction
That'll make you lose focus
It's just a distraction
Don't give them the attention or the satisfaction
Feeling like I'm at my best
On top of the game
Always on the practice field perfecting my aim
Giving you the signal to let you know I'm switching lanes
Never catch me being still like a freeze frame
So I propose a toast to their laughter
To all the critics thinking I was no longer a factor
Similar to a professional gambler
Know the odds before you play your hand for example
Living life the way I please
Care free
That's not a gimmick that's just me being me
What they allowed y'all to see was only a glimpse
Changed gears on the game and I ain't looked back since

I hear what they say about me
About me
And I Know
And I know who I'm trying to be
Who I'm trying to be
They got some hating on me
Saying this and that
But they don't really know me
Wikipedia can't tell you nothing 'bout me
Passing judgment on me sanctimoniously

It shouldn't take still frames from a camera
By now for y'all to picture me
At least that's what I thought but what I hear is contradictory
I walk this fine line
That's balance homie symmetry
How n***** feel failure from my success is just a mystery
Shit oh well if you buying what they sell
Then you don't need me
You can do bad all by your damn self
Word to the wise
If you hating keep your distance
That love hate thing
Look just pick one and be consistent
Go 'head keep taking D Swayze for granted
Soon you'll understand these bars harder than granite
Underdog against the odds yep that's just how I planned it
When I get it I ain't giving it back
Just being candid
To the rappers taking pot shots in the dark
To no avail
Didn't even warrant a spark
Already you can take that for what it's worth
But pennies for your thoughts won't get you reimbursed
Swayze baby

I hear what they say about me
About me
And I Know
And I know who I'm trying to be
Who I'm trying to be
They got some hating on me
Saying this and that
But they don't really know me
Wikipedia can't tell you nothing 'bout me
Passing judgment on me sanctimoniously

I'm in a European car with a European chick
Euro made watch making Europeans sick
Japanese denim Osaka made fashion
Late night London west end club crashing
Deutschland über alles
set the stallion free to run
Ferrari down the Autobahn bucket list fun
Jump in the jet touring 30 eurozone
NetJets card makes it easier to roam
Pit stop in Amsterdam fogging up the cabin
Mile high club birds begging for the shagging
Champions league UEFA cup I'm excited
Theater of Dreams mid pitch Man United
Exotic car waiting list
Sold out venues
I'm eating up life what's next on the menu
Used to scheme with my team
Now I'm living a dream
Roll tight like a burrito no sour just cream

I hear what they say about me
About me
And I Know
And I know who I'm trying to be
Who I'm trying to be
They got some hating on me
Saying this and that
But they don't really know me
Wikipedia can't tell you nothing 'bout me
Passing judgment on me sanctimoniously
