Jurassic 5 - If You Only Knew lyrics

Never, think just for shit's and giggles
Do we spit syllable riddles
For bit's and kibbles
So chicks can wiggle and shake
Cuz this image is fake

I’m trying hard to relate in a
Place filled with so much hate

Some brothers debate some love and some hate
Whatever the case it's all about
The choices you make
That’s the reason you balloon'll deflate

But do beleive we trying to rap
Back to it's primitive state wait

No overnight success or running with vets
Just pure unadulterated work progress
I’m willing to bet the farm
You’ll give you right arm
For a piece of the pie ask yourself why

If you only knew
The trials and tribulations
We’ve been through but, if you only knew
We real people homie just like you
We humble but don’t mistake us
For some corny ass crew
What we do is try to give
You whatcha ain’t used to
Soul music something we can all relate to

I ams what I am and that’s all I can be
No more no less what you seeing is me
Akil the MC W-IS-E
Wise intelligent God did bless me

Yes we rock up off all
The SP freshly especially
Dangerous rough and deadly

The pimp positioner tip the Richter scale

Alone we sink together we sail and prevail
The rum raisin', coming through Guns blazin’
Some of you duns running through
Ones with none savin’
Complainin’, me and my clan are unscathin’
From the soul comes something amazing

If you only knew
The trials and tribulations
We’ve been through but, if you only knew
We real people homie just like you
We humble but don’t mistake us
For some corny ass crew
What we do is try to give
You whatcha ain’t used to
Soul music something we can all relate to

How many times I gotta hear
Some fanatic in my ear
Tellin me to keep it real when
They ain’t payin my bills
Or feeding my kids, judging me on how I live
If my crib in the hood or
If it's up in the hills

Have you forgotten who you are?
O you think you’re a star
Why you frontin’ (you ain’t nothing)
You went from nothing to something
But something means nothing
If your people still wanting

And you got money ain’t givin’ them nothing

Flossin and frontin

Your game of charades the way you behave
The image you save
Your brother thats one big parade
I’m sick of your ways
I’m sitting here spitting the phrase
The next time they smile and they wave
Will probably be with the gays

If you only knew
The trials and tribulations
We’ve been through but, if you only knew
We real people homie just like you
We humble but don’t mistake us
For some corny ass crew
What we do is try to give
You whatcha ain’t used to
Soul music something we can all relate to
Soul, soul, soul, soul
