Kno The Meaning

My uncle Ronnie used to wash cars

My uncle Wayne was a kingpin, you know what I'm saying?

My uncle Don, that **** used to rob banks and shit, rest in peace

My granddaddy was a boss, he was a kingpin, you heard?

Got the game from them old ****

You gotta know where I'm from to get to know a ****

I skipped class to smoke weed

Hidin' from the police

I spent time overseas, hangin' out in England

And I got the squad on my mind, and I mean this

Do a little time out the country, I need this

Fifty-six nights, gotta know the real meanin'

Dropped Monster tape and had to go to Europe

Best thing I ever did was fall out of love

'Sco came to me, said, "They think you washed up

You need to go back in, show these **** who the one"

We going back in soon as we get off tour

He had my hard drive on him when he caught the case

When they took him into custody, they took my life away

People who didn't even understand it

My hard drives that I recorded all my music on

For two years straight, was on this

Was on this one hard drive that Esco had, and he was locked up with it

So I had to record new music

That's when I did Beast Mode

I'm fresh off the plane on them Zaytiggys

I endured so much pain, ain't got 'Sco with me

Ain't got nobody to smoke one or pour with me

**** rocked the lean, man, when I was OT

And I'm still dealin' with the time they gave Doe B

How he gon' catch an armed robbery around me?

And my lifestyle getting way bigger

I got so much love for my ****

Brown paper bag, we gettin' back to the paper

Gettin' back to the basics

Everything I did, it was premeditated

I just knew there'd come a time when I finally did make it

And some **** started hatin'

I ain't never had no problem with these ****

I've been about my guala from the dodo

Got an R&B chick layin' on me, no photo

Got a combo in the condo doin' some real-life porno, ho

And I ain't worried 'bout nothin' in the world, keep a badass bitch

These **** ain't none of my worries, damn that shit

There's so much more I gotta endure

I just had my baby, gotta go on tour

Fuck that shit

Got the game from them old ****

You gotta know where I'm from to get to know a ****

I skipped class to smoke weed

Hidin' from the police

I spent time overseas, hangin' out in England

And I got the squad on my mind and I mean this

Do a little time out the country, I need this

Fifty-six nights, gotta know the real meanin'

I ain't holding this back, I ain't holding this

The music way ahead of its time and I notice this

Get back in the studio, give 'em what they was missing

They didn't know I knew the game and I know how to reinvent it

They ain't know me in the cut, they just know me from rhymin'

My hard work finally catchin' up with perfect timin'

You know what I'm saying, I could take a

Hundred-dollar slab and goddamn make three hundred off that bitch, you dig?

Got the game from them old ****

You gotta know where I'm from to get to know a ****

I skipped class to smoke weed

Hidin' from the police

I spent time overseas, hangin' out in England

And I got the squad on my mind and I mean this

Do a little time out the country, I need this

Fifty-six nights, gotta know the real meanin'

Everything in the streets

It prepared me for everything that I'm going through right now

The good and the bad, you know what I'm saying?

Can't let none of this shit get to me

I go harder 'cause I know where I was at

And I know where I wanna go
