If Only They Knew

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Cash Kidd] Cruising through the hood, reminiscing 'bout the good days Egging up houses, run home before the hood came Bunch of young boys, in the street having a foot race Only thing in life they worry 'bout is getting good grades Middle school, hopped off the porch like what's happening? Shit, I'm tryna shoot some dice, after basketball practice Oldhead down the street, he be fresher than a bitch New kicks, new whip, I wonder how he do that shit Fast forward, now I'm in the real world living Grown as hell, time to strap my nuts on and go get it Tryna live like the oldhead down the street was living Tryna make a couple bands, tryna fuck a couple bitches Mama unemployed, sister paying all the bills Couldn't help, 'cause I was broke, how you think that made me feel? Fuck that, had to grind, got it out the mud for real I was seeing thousands, but now, shit, I'm tryna touch a mill That's real [Chorus: Motown Ty] If only they knew If only they knew What I've been through to get here If only they knew If only they knew Y'all niggas couldn't end my life Y'all niggas couldn't end my life [Verse 2: Cash Kidd] All these young niggas' priorities fucked up Broke as hell, but still chasing hoes, that ain't what's up These bitches can wait, better go and get your paper, boy 'Cause when you on, dawg, they gon' chase you like the paper boy Every nigga you see with me, I grew up with them Couple new niggas tryna be down, but I don't trust niggas Except Mel, [?] I fuck with them Found a group of wild royal niggas, and I stuck with them Niggas hit my line, like what's good? What's on the floor? But if I ain't with my bitch, I'm at the stu or at a show Been ran through these hoes, now I'm through, that shit is old Busy getting to the money, eating good with all my bros Still [?] free him asap [?] seeing him, everywhere you see my face at R.I.P. Jeff, I wish I never had to say that Free all my niggas locked, I wish that I could take it way back [Chorus: Motown Ty] If only they knew If only they knew What I've been through to get here If only they knew If only they knew Y'all niggas couldn't end my life Y'all niggas couldn't end my life [Verse 3: Cash Kidd] Don't let nobody slow you down, make you walk in a race That ain't gon' get you nowhere, like if you jogging in place Grind hard, pray harder, stack it all in the safe On the road to riches, I feel like a car with no brakes When I was down, you had [?] nigga all in your face But now I'm on, you blowing up my line and calling me fake [?] 'cause this money real and my fam good Came a long way from eating dinner out of canned goods Did it on my own, I'm the man, now I'm eating No handouts was needed, pull a cam out, I'm cheesing In the mall taking pictures, with my fans while I'm leaving Stunting on all of my old hoes that left, now they teaming Darkskin, [?] with bands, you can't beat it So I know why they choosing, 'cause I flex for no reason I fucked her and her best friend, now they beefing I'm the man, can't believe it, shit feel like [?] [Chorus: Motown Ty] If only they knew If only they knew What I've been through to get here If only they knew If only they knew Y'all niggas couldn't end my life Y'all niggas couldn't end my life
