Lyrics Always Knew - Dee-1 feat. Canon

Where were you when I was getting it?
Always knew that I was gifted
Always knew that I was different
Now they gotta pay attention, yeah, yeah
I always knew that I was different, I always knew that I was gifted
I ain't never had no dough, all I had was my ambition
I always knew I had a mission, I just had to get the vision
Had people tell me I was throwed, I just thought that I should mention
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
This the greatest story that done never been told
Knew all of this right there on Dwyer Road
Mama told me somethin' at 5 years old
It changed my life forever, made me more bold
Teachers knew I was a studious beast
Sophisticated, but was raised on the streets
City of hustlers, quick on my feet
When it's my turn to hustle, my family gon' eat
So I gotta get it, man, I graveyard these beats
Yeah, I graveyard these beats (I graveyard these beats)
Put my pain on these beats (My pain on these beats)
Now my name on the lease
People thought I was crazy (Thought I was wild)
Talked about me and laughed (What you laughin' at now?)
Now they see that I made it (Stop and they stare)
I look at 'em like hah
I always knew that I was different, I always knew that I was gifted
I ain't never had no dough, all I had was my ambition
I always knew I had a mission, I just had to get the vision
Had people tell me I was throwed, I just thought that I should mention
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
Spitting real, righteous, relevant, kept it so G
Survived three car accidents, God watching me
Who shall I inspire before I'm deceased?
Admire this rose that grew from the concrete
Look at me on the grind while they clubbing at night
Put my phone in airplane mode, it's time to take flight
Don't look down on my life, this the time of my life
Took a chance and went left, turns out I was right
I'm not, give all praise up to Christ, learned a lot from the struggle
How to stand and be brave, how to kneel and be humble
Look, always knew I was dope, but they ain't wan' see me grow
Never thought I would blow, the whole hero from 504
I always knew that I was different, I always knew that I was gifted
I ain't never had no dough, all I had was my ambition
I always knew I had a mission, I just had to get the vision
Had people tell me I was throwed, I just thought that I should mention
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
I got this, I got, I got this, yeah
Man, this for everybody,
All my lil' homies who tryna do the right thing, you heard me?
They make you feel like that's the wrong
Thing though, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout?
You know what I'm talkin' 'bout, man, I was him, I was him
I was right there, dawg, promise I was you
Oh, this for the girls too, you heard me?
This for everybody
