V.I - All I Know Lyrics

When you the answer and still a problem, they tend to question
At this point, you can't solve em', I'm really steppin
Lotta talkin', trickin' culture, ain't really reppin
I've been off em', a steady vulture, like lethal weapon

Way that I been circling these bodies back to back
I been decimatin' properly, I see oppies every track
Tryna knock 'cause they sloppy and can't copy cookin' crack
I been tryna tell the truth, cause it's taboo and abstract

Rarely co-sign any waves, so the people never hear ya
Honestly dismayed, and sometimes I felt inferior
Recognized my weight, and the vision got much clearer
If I need a goat displayed, I just look into a mirror

This my bounce back, ain't no clout rap
Just a stout gap, between an outcast and where the drought's at
Got the dollars matchin' music so the bank account slaps
Make ya bounce that, ain't no doubt that very single ounce facts

Always been about about craft, put my stories into sound
Used to feel like I was drowning, watch who say they'll hold you down
This Ohtani at the mound, greatness only thing I'm on
Switched that heart I keep on sleeve for some Comme Des Garçons

All I know, shakin' off the aches
Vampires all around me so I had to raise the stakes
Gotta drive to show and prove, so the rest can pump the brakes
Flows'll make you move
But my aura make ya shake

I can't take no more, of the regular
Just, see, smor, gasbord, no competitors
Hair grew way, too, long for a crown
Graduated from the bull, you can keep the cap and gown

All I know, trust in subtle pride now
Tryna grow, always let it ride out
All I know, so many disguised foul
Lateral threw em' to side now

All I know, all that shade done died out
Jekyll flows, make 'em run an hide now
Hit the floor, if ya can't decide now
Lateral, throw it the side ow

Life's too complex, to live simple
Snakes always add new context, I stay nimble
Broke loose, you cannot play in my mental
Spoke jewels, 'fore I knew grills and fly dental

Been two timed so often, questioned every reveal
Love on shakey foundation, so I know what's concealed
Wonder, how much you made up, blended with the real
I went numb tryna be something that you could feel

All these thoughts elevated, put a dent in my trust
Tested mettle too much, now you can deal with the rust

So corrosive but unique
Bro the coldest for a geek
Supernova at its peak
My emotions ain't discreet

Always open, seldom chosen
Heart's on control, alt, delete
Put this genre on my shoulders, had to strengthen my obliques

So persistent but I'm livid hearin' what makes the money
Competition isn't vivid, just see Solomon Grundy

Dead men walkin', TED talkin' on the beat
Adebayo at the center, pretty evident this heat
Gettin' heavy, breakin' levees with the cane that's in my speech
Steady Krueger chasin' every single dream that's in my reach

You can snooze at discretion
Makin' room for my blessings
Removed every ruse I confused with affection
Felt consumed with aggression
Banner Bruce when I jot a
Verse, losing goat status, more a chupacabra

All I know, shakin' off the aches
Vampires all around me so I had to raise the stakes
Gotta drive to show and prove, so the rest can pump the brakes
Flows'll make you move
But my aura make ya shake

I can't, take, no more, of the regular
Just. see smorgasbord, no competitors
Hair grew way too long for a crown
Graduated from the bull, you can keep the cap and gown now

All I know, love and subtle pride now
Tryna grow, always let it ride out
All I know, so many disguised foul
Lateral move em' to side now

All I know, all that shade done died out
Jekyll flows, make 'em run an hide now
Hit the floor, if ya can't decide now
Lateral, throw it the side ow

I been on, too long
Know this, aura, too strong
I know, what I can be
Ready for division from those that can't see

Value in me
A style you can keep
Your values are cheap
I'm less of what I do for you when more you never gave to me

At times like this, it's important to remember

It's almost never what it seems
Always been a solider but you bums got me fatigued
