I Know

Boy, if it could light up in my day
I'm addicted, wanna drive inside your head
I, I, I, I, I, I
I wouldn't let it get out the way
I'm addicted, and I just can't get enough

Lotta bad thoughts on my mind, this shit get real
Don't wanna live this way, but I tote iron, ain't tryna get killed
Done been through so much pain, so I take drugs, just not to feel
I know this shit ain't right, but that's just the way that it is

And I know, I know one day that the sun gon' shine
I do this for my momma and I do this for Tiyon
Remember late nights, I used to always hear her crying
Damn, I miss my nigga, Tre, remember we was kickin' doors

Gave me my first pole and it was somethin' I ain't seen before
Now your mind gone, hope, you pick yourself up off the floor
Fuck we had a plan, only wishin' that I listened more
Remember late nights, with the guys shootin' dice, nigga

Nigga's want us gone, so we tote poles to protect our life, nigga
I don't wanna love a bitch, cause that shit too trife
Nigga, they say I'm wrong, for tryna step, well, I don't wanna be right, nigga

I been all alone lately, searchin' for my peace
I feel I'm the realest, ain't no realer than Sha-d
Fuck em they don't feel me, make a nigga feel my heat
We don't shoot out cars, homie, walk ya down on feet

Lotta bad thoughts on my mind, this shit get real
Don't wanna live this way, but I told iron, ain't tryna get killed
Done been through so much pain, so I take drugs, just not to feel
I know this shit ain't right, but that's just the way that it is

And I know, I know one day that the sun gon' shine
I do this for my momma and I do this for Tiyon
Remember late nights, I used to always hear her cry, yeah
