This I Know

What he say?
To the top is where ya are headed
(To the top where you are, yeah)
But I know I'm hard headed (You know I'm hard headed, yeah)
What ya got?
(Ohhhhhh)
I got a superstar fetish

I might not be a wonder with the numbers but that music
(This I know)
So many blunders might stun ya but that music
(This I know)
I might be not be a scholar so father Imma holler
(This I know)
I know you show the love
(This I know)
I got to go because
(This I know)

The class room where my daily chores are
Ignore them daydreaming reaching for stars
My attitude in school is nope it's music notes
And the ability of moving forward but got a bad report card
No way to keep that bottled up my hollow gut bubbling
Cause was hovering as the teachers gonna make that follow up call
To the house and rat us out why they gotta bust balls
Do you think mom and dad gonna coddle us? Nah
Step daddy is a business man he counting bread
At the dining table I sit down with my pounding head
I didn't even have to tell him with the phone call that say I'm failing lookin
at me his temper swelling now he shouting red
He said "If you apply yourself, do well up in school I ain't about to hire no
help you grow up and find out you can't acquire more wealth
You're a teenager so this ain't gonna require no belt"

Spot is hot again look what I got us in
Oh my God I'm in hot ham honey
Where my momma nem can't even call a friend
No job no dollars and pops said dumb it
Committed a lot of sins felt like I was not kin
When he brought that Allah in heart ran from it
Alhamdulillah he said when he popped me with some bread
You done knocked me in the head with some God damn money
I'm gone

I might not be a wonder with the numbers but that music
(This I know)
So many blunders might stun ya but that music
(This I know)
I might be not be a scholar so father Imma holler
(This I know)
I know you show the love
(This I know)
I got to go because
(This I know)

I'm my mind I'm thinking I gotta go
Anybody around me think they can rhyme I got a hotter flow
But the family think you wasting ya time that brought a low
You wanna climb but not a no to be N9ne
They shot up bro on momma's door
They think it's a hobby but people applaud me
When I'm busting so I'm up in that discussion with Maudie
When he was not at home I told my mamma I'd probably go to aunt Zeta's over the
holidays she looked at me oddly
Sad sad, like just to go over to Zeta's for Thanksgiving
You need all those clothes in a trash bag
Kiss my momma then I made a mad dash
Down the block then blast past
All my friends it's gonna be our last last
Bye Donnie, bye Donnie, bye Donnie - Was my shame lap
No more change track, I never came back
Love from my family, nothing will ever change that
Got to go cause this I know I'm chasing money, fame, rap

Spot is hot again look what I got us in
Oh my God I'm in hot ham honey
Where my momma nem can't even call a friend
No job no dollars in pops said dumb it
Committed a lot of sins felt like I was not kin
When he brought that Allah in heart ran from it
Alhamdulillah he said when he popped me with some bread
You done knocked me in the head with some God damn money
I'm gone

I might not be a wonder with the numbers but that music
(This I know)
So many blunders might stun ya but that music
(This I know)
I might be not be a scholar so father Imma holler
(This I know)
I know you show the love
(This I know)
I got to go because
(This I know)

Oh yeah, this I know
This I know, oh yeah, yeah
Yeah, this I know
