MIKE - ​what i know lyrics

Wow wow (Aye) wow wow, wo-ow (yeah)
Wow wow wow wow, wo-ow
Wo-

Yeah one hand on the rifle
That shit for survival
The other on the Bible
And everything that I do got a purpose
Even though my life turned into circus
(M-m-m) and I'm so close I can taste it
Off to the races i ain't got no neighbors
Traded them for acres
Leaving LA but they treat me like a Laker
Every time I come 'round talk
About a come down when you get high as this
Get harder to keep your feet
On the ground and shit
Dotted line nah I ain't tryna sign and shit
I'm just tryna keep what's mine and shit
'Cause when you know what I know
It's survival, one hand on the rifle
I ain't never lie to you, I ain't even try to
The only thing I can't give her is the title
(Mhm)

'Cause when you know what I know
You just gotta live by the code
But, you gotta live on your toes
When you know what I know
That could turn your friends into foes
Stay ten toes down like my nose
When you know what I know
You can't trust a word out of anybody
Even when they hurt you they ain't ever sorry
So I stay out the way
'cause that's how shit go
When you know what I know

That shit can leave you in a flash
Two hundred on the dash and
I'm speedin' 'til I crash (So fast)
(M-m-m)
So I leave it in the past, leanin' on the gas
'Cause, I needed it fast
Full tank and nobody gon' gas us
They want answers but nobody asked us
They forgot my work so I taxed 'em
Just ask 'em
But, I flip a bird livin' a head of the curve
And then I hit the curve
I knew I had to mature, I had to do the work
I put my head in the dirt
And then I did that shit (yeah I did that)
Got presidential tint on the windows
They ain't seein' through
Feel good knowing I got it
But I'ma keep it too
Had to missing for a bit but
Now it's peek a boo bitch, yea

'Cause when you know what I know
You just gotta live by the code
And you gotta live on your toes
When you know what I know
That can turn your friends into foes
I had to stay ten toes down
Like my muh fuckin' nose
You can't trust a word out of anybody
Even when they hurt you they ain't ever sorry
So I stay out the way
'Cause that's how that shit go
When you know what I know (Uh)
When you know what I know (Uh, M-m-m-mm)
(yeah)

'Cause when you know what I know
I'm just a-and people take it they take
It as preaching when I'm talking
I'm just tryna
I'm just tryna tell y'all I've been
I've been behind the curtain
I peeked behind the curtain
It was more than a peek
I've been there and lived behind the curtain
'Cause when you know what I know
(Mhm whoa whoa whoa)
