BEFORE U KNEW ME - Intellectual

[Verse]

I can't wait to sign on the dotted line and show the world what's real music

My whole life I had to fall in line and prove to people I will do it

They say my life is a movie (Cut), well fuck that, this shit's real to me (Cut)

Growing up in my household (Cut), rape and murder wasn't new to me

Gang signs, had to call before I'm hang time

Pounds of weed in my Honda Civic, gettin' random searches from K-9's (Pow)

They don't understand my pain, ok on the gain, I say what I say, what I want when I want it

I lost confidence from my comments, I don't wanna lose it all like Alana (Wow)

Before you knew me ('Fore you knew me)

Before you knew me (Yeah, yeah)
