Oddisee - Already Knew lyrics

Let me recollect for a sec
Back when I stressed for a check
Didn’t know I was blessed
Happy with a whole lot less
No way for me to know that yet
Put me to test when the world
Tried to put me to rest
That’s like a joke I don’t get
Over the heads, what’s there to prove to vets
I’m old news to the press
Dude in flesh, ya’ll make moves on net
I cut that loose on a jet trends what I set
Left my ends on a quest then I came back
Gems in a chest never the neck
Learned that jewel from a deck
Taught me young to expect
Funds come with request
No gets more than a yes
No doors closed to the best, I’m always next

I’ma show and prove I was never gonna lose
Yeah I already knew
I’ma show and prove I was never gonna lose
Yeah I already knew
I’ma show and prove I was never gonna lose
Yeah I already knew

This one goes to the ones who ain’t roll
When I said let’s get it that
Ain’t have the same goals blame none
People get afraid when a
Vision only living in
Your brain and they like set stone
Had to let lone I ain’t
Tripping off nobody long
As they stay quiet when the mind state blow
Don’t try pivot when you
See the light hitting
That’s the same idea but with time made so
Seeing is believing I was
Dreaming bout achieving
Something I ain’t have a reason to
Foresee that I would be in
One day I was on defense
By the next day leading
Only resting when beat it and the title say O
Renewed attitude it’s fresh
Never let a view get set a rule gets met
Enough ain't resistant to change
Remain too long you forget i always knew

I’ma show prove I was never gonna lose
Yeah I already knew
I’ma show prove I was never gonna lose
Yeah I already knew
I’ma show prove I was never gonna lose
Yeah I already knew
I’ma show prove I was never gonna lose
Yeah I already knew
I’ma show prove I was never gonna lose
Yeah I already knew
I’ma show prove I was never gonna lose
Yeah I already knew
I’ma show prove I was never gonna lose
Yeah I already
