lyrics

You Oughta Know

(Verse 1)

So check the audio, I just thought You Oughta Know
That you left me all alone when you went up off and go
We coulda talked, but no what you did was awfully low
Probably cause you lost your soul and lately I’ve been on a roll
Secluded in my special musical zone
And it’s been beautiful to grow while stayin’ true to my own
But nobody should have to do it alone
And later on I’m sure those actions you won’t choose to atone
Cause whatever it is you’re doin’ this for
Has a root to its core which for you is rude to ignore
And too immature, but what I want for you is a cure
Cause whatever it is just know someone’s been through it before
All you need is self love and devout prayer
And a reason to wake up driven without fear
Cause you’ll never prosper full of doubt scared
And may have to go elsewhere but know that they’re out there

(Chorus)

(You Oughta Know) You Oughta Know Ya’ll

(You Oughta Know) That you’re never alone dog

(You Oughta Know) You Oughta Know Ya’ll

(Nobody has to do it alone)

(Verse 2)

But to be honest I’m so used to being solo
And doing it all myself that I could really use some promo
Cause overall they didn’t root for me as locals
But that’s okay cause now my fan community is global
Not to insult you but you slept up on me comfortably
And most the times I felt like I was dreaded in your company
Probably because you never could keep up with me
And hold a grudge for me cause you regret who you’ve become to be
Begrudgingly, unfulfilled how their lifeline went
Searchin’ for a thrill through a pill despite time spent
I just want someone to chill and write rhymes with
Willing and like minded, still I just can’t find it
Cause personally the funk I never faked once
Or changed up on another brother to chase stunts
So I don’t hang with many peers cause they judge
My friends change every seven years like taste buds

(Chorus)

(You Oughta Know) You Oughta Know Ya’ll

(You Oughta Know) That you’re never alone dog

(You Oughta Know) You Oughta Know Ya’ll

(Nobody has to do it alone)

(Verse 3)

So I don’t make my daily regiment known
So when I’m in the studio I just pretend to be home
Plus one with God so I’m never alone
Plus not to mention the connections in my cellular phone
But I’m regularly stoned, people can tell by my tone
Cause it’s the medicine that helped me go to fend for my own
Then once I get it I set it in sediment stone
Then for the record I set it to let it be known
Yo, the only guy I can rely on is I
And the only guidelines I abide to is God’s
But not the kind you can find in the sky
Cause the inner workings of God weren’t designed for the eye
In fact our connections derived from inside
So your given talents I wouldn’t advise you to hide
But it’s really up to you in due time to decide
To subscribe or deny to what’s divinely aligned

(Chorus)

(You Oughta Know) You Oughta Know Ya’ll

(You Oughta Know) That you’re never alone dog

(You Oughta Know) You Oughta Know Ya’ll (Nobody has to do it alone)
