Lyrics Only If - King Kontoh

Only if you knew...

Dearly beloved
The game is now recovered
Make sure you tell your lovers and the newspaper covers
About the world we living in and everything it offers
One part living lavish while the other part just suffers
Growing up in Ghana though, blessing and a curse
It taught me things to cherish, ykno' putting Family first
But also fiending just to sin
Sneaking out of church for video games and still be back before the bible verse
It had an effect on me so I'm here looking for causes
I'll do a road life or 9 to 5 in the office
In a gist, I just wanna take my pops shopping and he grabs without wondering how much it cost us
Perhaps, we just have to trust the process
And say a prayer for all our enemies tryna cross us (ONLY IF)

Only if you knew
What I've been through
Maybe you could prove
How words could bruise
Only if you knew
Only if you knew
Only if you knew

Scattered thoughts, where to start
Reminisce on dish days washing all the pots
At the melting pot, memories unlocked
How could I forget the link up burn ups in the parking lot
I cannot
Give music less than all I got
Consider this the matrimony go and tie the knot
That last line was dedicated to my fans
The king is back don't worry that I'll ever leave again
No need for the self doubt stemming from within
When there's a bunch of f*cking rapper that I'm better than, so
I'm kinda doing this for you and me
Follow what I'm doing like you playing wii
Oh and as for all you rapper tryna pree
Yes or No, Kontoh YOU the best and I'm screaming Oui (we)
No Khaled tho
Your story unreliable an anecdote but it's cool
Cuz I'm here and I'm the antidote
And cops should have me confiscated cuz I'm actually dope (ONLY IF)

Aaaaahhhh Oooooo Oooohhh
Oh yea, Oh no
What I've been through
Maybe you could prove, how words could bruise
Only if you knew
Only if you knew
What i've been through
Only if you knew

Only if you knew
What I've been through
Maybe you could prove
How words could bruise
Only if you knew
Only if you knew
Only if you knew
What I've been through
Maybe you could prove
How words could bruise
Only if you knew
Only if you knew
Only if you knew
