Big K.R.I.T. - I Heard It All lyrics

I done heard it all before yea you jamming
But yo image need some guidance
And some diamonds cause it's more
To this than rhyming
Yea I done heard it all before
We'll be travelling and flying state to state
Fucking hoes, rocking shows if you sign
Ay I done heard it all before
Ay in this game
What you claim ain't the thang
Mississippi ain't for fame, change yo name
Yea I done heard it all before
But yo talent is by far a blessing
And a gift from God but we
Can turn you into a star
Ay I done heard it all before

Never losing in pursuing in my vision
In my kitchen writing rhymes
Pray to God that they listen
But, it's a real fucked up position that this
Rap shit might just put you in
My partner fed up with the game
Like he might sell that kush again
Cause CDs we been pushing them
But deals ain't coming fast enough
We he need to go feed his kids
And this shit here ain't adding up
Passing us by, time, never waste, busy home
Sit beside by grandma, wish that I can stay
The phone ringing
Promises so confident of money plays
I head back to the struggle like
"they might sign me any day"
Forever trapped, no coming back
Addiction's truly hard to break
A thousand pills could never fill the
Gap of leaving off the stage

I done heard it all before yea you jamming
But yo image need some guidance
And some diamonds cause it's more
To this than rhyming
Yea I done heard it all before
We'll be travelling and flying state to state
Fucking hoes, rocking shows if you sign
Ay I done heard it all before
Ay in this game
What you claim ain't the thang
Mississippi ain't for fame, change yo name
Yea I done heard it all before
But yo talent is by far a blessing
And a gift from God but we
Can turn you into a star
Ay I done heard it all before

I pride myself on being righteous
Do it big and do it better
But A&R's ain't in the streets
I'm forced to follow them on Twitter
I'm painting pictures, ghetto compositions
Living work of art
But dancing in a circle dressed as
Urkel how you make your mark
Ay get yo star, play yo part, find yo swag
Get yo deal so you snapping
Who needs rapping when you got some ad-libs?
And some days there's no choice
Most days it's hard times
If skinny jeans mean big dreams
No thanks I'm just fine
In my mind, it's 'bout rhyme
I'm just tryna speak freely
My shawty feel illuminati's real and
They might kill me for voicing my opinion
Scared to die but this ain't living
In these meetings they can't tell
Me what I'm missing

I done heard it all before yea you jamming
But yo image need some guidance
And some diamonds cause it's more
To this than rhyming
Yea I done heard it all before
We'll be travelling and flying state to state
Fucking hoes, rocking shows if you sign
Ay I done heard it all before
Ay in this game
What you claim ain't the thang
Mississippi ain't for fame, change yo name
Yea I done heard it all before
But yo talent is by far a blessing
And a gift from God but we
Can turn you into a star
Ay I done heard it all before
