Cliche - I Know Lyrics

It don't matter how you feel
Either you right or you wrong
That pride like a pill
Don't get hooked on the dope
It don't matter how you see it
Long as your eyes ain't closed
Keep your hands on the wheel
& your eyes on the road
They say struggle makes a man
I guess trials makes a hoe
Excuses make us thin
Why you sizing the hope
We was focused on the win
We kept checking on the score
We couldn't wash off our sins
We had pieces of broken soap

And I know
The toughest battles make us humble
The first pain I felt was hunger
I was fine in case you wondered
I ain't die but I was suffering
I can't lie I made it work
I'm alive for what it's worth
I survived through the struggle
Thats how the dice roll
So Imma always shuffle
I Play the cards that I'm dealt
Leave them squares out my huddle
Strategize by myself
Cause Im tryna move with a purpose I Heard love can get you killed That's why I don't show emotions

It was shoot outs in the hood
As kids we wasn't scared of thunder
I learned how to survive early
I skipped prom & getting girly
I learned how to hate a man
Cause what they did to my mama
Ain't no changing what you said
Can't no words replace the trauma
I heard voices in my head
Think it's depression Or I'm haunted
But The way that pain spread
Shit reminded me of some butter
It was butter on that bread
I was lookin forward to school lunches
Never forget when they said Greg dead I was searching for the answers

So I know The toughest battles make us humble The first pain I felt was hunger
I was fine in case you wondered
I ain't die but I was suffering
I can't lie I made it work I'm alive for what it's worth I survived through the struggle
Thats how the dice roll
So Imma always shuffle
Play the cards that I'm dealt
Leave them squares out my huddle
Strategize by myself
Cause I move with a purpose
Heard love can get you killed
I don't show emotions

I was sweating like a head band
Thinking about that karma
Thinking maybe I need my head scanned Cause I be seeing monsters I seen the devil he was dancing Moving like my uncle
If you move then you a dead man
Moving like a zombie
Put your family in a caravan
Like we playing soccer
I know a nigga who killed his family I can't lie But I was plotting
I was slept on like a bed frame
F*cking up they posture
I know some niggas I gave em Everything Like they f*ckin sponsor

That Pain make you humble that first pain I felt was hunger and I was fine in case you wondered I ain't die but I was suffering I can't lie that's how the dice roll I was trying to make it work I was trying to make it double and I know
