I Wanna Know |
| How’s everybody feeling out there? |
| We good? |
| Let’s talk to the sample right quick, tah! |
| I always pictured we’d be |
| It go like this, listen |
| Let me tell you how I pictured this |
| A few houses, a couple businesses |
| Striving for greatness, we would be each other’s witnesses |
| And during beef, we both would put aside our differences |
| Where I ain’t flinch a bit making you insignificant |
| Maybe kids and shit, perfect arithmetic |
| Meaning we could build our own world and co-exist in it |
| She a synergy, sharing energy |
| Let our souls mate in the air if you remember me |
| Now here’s what I did with it |
| Went out my way to fuck these stripper chicks |
| Lost good girls making them mistresses |
| Just savages, missed marriages |
| They all was my babies, I needed those miscarriages |
| My worthless self when Joe felt hurt |
| I went out and targeted women who had no self worth |
| I relate to praying nightly feeling no spell work |
| When you can do it, but a stranger gotta go help first |
| I called moms on the phone, here’s what I told her real quick |
| I said my 20s flew by with no control of the shit |
| Her next sentence swear that I’ll forever hold with a grip |
| She said it go by even faster as the older you get |
| I wanna never dumb down, I’d have to lower my wit |
| Ain’t gotta post this on the Gram for you to know what it is |
| A partner to trust, I’m thinking even bigger for us |
| Mom should’ve told me this when we had shit to discuss |
| Now neither one of us is how we figured we’d be |
| Sometimes the thought of what if still lives here with me |
| I always pictured we’d be |
| Nah’mean? |
| That’s how I see it in my head though |
| Ain’t quite pan out like that… word up |
| Let me tell you about some more of God’s work though |
| I wanna know what this life’s supposed to be like |
| I wanna know, wanna know, ah |
| I wanna know what this love’s supposed to be like |
| I wanna know, wanna know |
| Nah, I like it just like that, Parks, let it run |
| Lemme go right here, right here, right here |
| Look, Look |
| A love that’s tideful, never prideful |
| If you’re truly better without me how can I spite you? |
| As I yearn for the greatest love I ever had |
| Pardon me, kid, I’m still learning how to be a dad |
| We be in spots you shouldn’t be in 'till you grown |
| I was absent so long I’m just not leaving you home |
| So nah, too much to learn, too much world out there |
| Let me teach you about these hoes, too many girls out there |
| I respect your mom’s tutelage |
| But that’s my weird and my brain, what’s she gon' do with this? |
| Watch and learn, foolish kid |
| Eyes light up with surprise, you’re just like I am |
| I think that you’re enjoying this ride just like I am |
| Look, same pedigree, theoretically |
| Cut from a cloth that was gone, that’s just genetically |
| One job in life to make you a much better me |
| Greater feeling than I imagine this shit would ever be |
| You be feeling strong when you diss me in songs |
| I did the same my whole career, would never tell you it’s wrong |
| Whatever works out, whatever the price, get that embedded |
| Even if at my expense, I’ll pay it, you take the credit |
| Had a power struggle when I thought your mom abused it |
| My hands were in bondage, useless |
| Beyond the excuses, calm through it |
| It’s crazy, our bond music |
| And we do it beautifully for our beautiful conduit |
| So right now I stand in a place I never stood before |
| Finally filled the void in my life, I wasn’t good before |
| Fucking with these hoes, that energy I was putting forth |
| God, this is more like the fucking love I was looking for |
| Now it’s better than we pictured it’d be |
| And the supervised visits, we’ll never have to relive it |
| Little nigga we’ll be, ha, tah! |
| This is greater than us, greater than me |
| Greater than anything I could ever imagine, man |
| I ain’t talking to everybody? |
| Trey, what up though? |
| Tah! |
| What up? |
| What up? |
| I wanna know what this life’s supposed to be like |
| I wanna know, wanna know, ah |
| I wanna know what this love’s supposed to be like |
| I wanna know, wanna know |
| I wanna know what this life’s supposed to be like |
| I wanna know, wanna know, ah |
| I wanna know what this love’s supposed to be like |
| I wanna know, wanna know |
