Oddisee
Already Knew
[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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
