[Intro: Lightnin, Bruts & Aaliyah]
(Let me know, let me know)
Bruts
Blud, today, yeah
I woke up, man, I was just...
Thinking about things like
(Let me know, let me know)
Bare indi's that's been going on around me and that, man
With my own man dem and that
Like, I don't really know who to trust
I don't know who to believe
(Let me know, let me know)
You know them way there?
It's just sick
I know, man, it's sick, bro
I know how you feel, man, how do you feel, B?
Man, it's like everyday, like, man are working hard, doing my ting, like, then
It's like people don't even notice, you know them way there?
Anyway, this is how I feel
[Verse 1: Lightnin]
You need to let me know when Lightnin's gonna blow
I get frustrated sometimes
I've been spitting for some years with these brehs
My levels are high, I've already made it clear
But I ain't up there
Is it 'cause I don't spray like K and Ghetts?
Is it 'cause I don't spray a million similes and metaphors?
Believe the kids in love with me, they're wanting more
Out of all the other youngers
I'm the only one still going
Why? 'Cause I really love to spit
But cars, they love to nick, ain't off the road
I chose music
I spent my time in the studio
No one cares now, I don't get brought on tunes
But someday, I'ma prove 'em wrong, just
[Chorus: Aaliyah]
Let me know, let me know
Let me know, let me know
[Verse 2: Lightnin]
Ayo, ayo, tick-tock, time is clicking
Time is running out day by day by
Tick-tock, gotta start working harder
I've gotta make my way
I sit down everyday and think about life
While you're there tryna gain yourself stripes
Stupid, tryna gain yourself hype
What you gonna do when you hit 25?
Uh, when's the end of my life?
I'm scared 'cause too many niggas have done died
Adam, fifteen, [?], twenty-four
Gun One, eighteen
Three niggas in the hood killed at a young age
Don't wanna make the front page
It makes me sick, young niggas think of shivs
It's their own grave they dig
[Chorus: Aaliyah & Bruts]
Let me know, let me know
Let me know, let me know
Let me break it down (Listen up)
Look, look
[Verse 3: Bruts]
I get helped by no one so I help no one
When I succeed, I'm gonna thank no one
'Cause no one carried me (Nah)
Therefore no one can damage me (Nah)
And plus, blud, you can't be mad at me (Never)
I mean, how many times has an MC made it
Blown and not helped their family? It's happened to me (Uh)
Look, he was your right-hand man 'til the right man found him
Now he thinks he's the king like somebody crowned him
And his state of mind ain't right
Just talk nonsense, don't understand him (Nonsense)
And he smokes his life away
So much that he can't be right for days
How did it get this way? (Way)
Somebody let me know how things changed, just (Changed)
[Chorus: Aaliyah]
Let me know, let me know
Let me know, let me know
