I Knew

It’s a long way to the top

A lot of people thought that I would stop but

I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew

I knew, I knew I could do it

I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew

I knew, I knew I could do it

Early morning you can catch me grinding

Late night, yeah, I’m still putting the time in

I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew

I knew, I knew I could do it

I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew

I knew, I knew I could do it

I put in work around the clock, you do on occasion

Hard work pays off, you minimum waging

I’m not like you, I work until I’m aching

You give up on your dreams and you only like three days in

Fight for what you want, don’t quit at the weigh-in

Don’t treat your life as a joke unless your last name Wayans

Learn from other people’s mistakes, you don’t have to make them

Some people have to fail to understand what I’m saying

I get it, I know, so they messed up, I won’t though

I work too hard and too long to make mistakes that I know so

They might talk down on me now because they gave up on they own goals

If you live in a glass house you should be scared of a stone throw, so shh

You want it bad enough you can do it

If you just watch me then I can prove it

Started just me and a dream, then I

Turned that into me leading a whole movement

Everybody around me eating

Because I wouldn’t take a seat when

They told me chill out, they keep it a bill

Now my visions weren’t what they were seeing

I get a cheque now, yeah

Look at my neck now, yeah

Full of baguettes now, yeah

Can’t help but flex now, yeah

My come up come with some commas

Can’t tell I’m a comma comma chameleon

That means I don’t need to be in your face

You should know I’m out chasing these millions

You gon’ see it when I pull up in that skirt skirt

Ask me how I did it putting in that work work

It’s a long way to the top but I work hard and

Trust no obstacle will stop me ’til I’m six feet in the dirt, you heard
