I Never Knew by Gosh Da Reel Lyrics
Oh my Gosh
[Intro: Lerato Happiness]
Heyi hiii
(Heyeyiye, Heyeyiye
Uwe ye eh, uwe ye ye
Heyi ye hiii
(Heyeyiye, Heyeyiye)
Uwe ye ye ya ya ya
(Heyeyiye, Heyeyiye)
Uwe uwe uwe uwe
Yeah
(Heyeyiye, Heyeyiye)
[Verse 1: Gosh Da Reel]
Got no degree but that's an honorary
God is offеring, his blessings all on me
Those who doubtеd me, they wishing death on me
I used to be a vendor in the streets of Chi-town
Selling zines and airtime
Man it wasn't my time
But I stayed on my grind
Kept on spitting dope rhymes
Kept on fighting my demons
I'm a winner by default
Shout out mighty mighty God
You've been with me all this far
It all happened on purpose
You put some cash my pockets
I got some stamps on my passport
You made raise enough budget
I'm not record label's puppet
Now I'm shinning like nugget
And I am independent
I'm a lil boy who was raised in the ghetto
No light, no light you can see me as your candle
I'm all the way up, I waited so long
You all the way down, you are morons
I never knew that
[Chorus: Lerato Happiness]
I never knew
This time would be me (this time would be me)
I never thought
I would be here today (Oh no)
I never knew
This time would be me (this time would be me)
I never thought
Would be shinning like a star
I never knew (I never knew)
This time would be me (this time would be me)
I never thought
I would be here today (Oh no)
[Verse 2: Gosh Da Reel]
Listen to me now, it's my time to shine
I never back down at any given time
I'm a dime in this industry, I take what's mine
Understand I'm ahead of y'all, the rest behind
We are climbing up the ladder
We will get bread and butter
If we help one another
From city, copper cabana, we are begging God for manna
We are praying for a Samuel while we are in our pyjamas
Tiri kuedza, tiri kuzama
I was shot in the shoulder, the bullet's stuck forever
I was stabbed in the head, the scars are there forever
Man I am a survivor
I'm a fighter, I'm a striker
I'm a writer, I'm a rapper
When they hear me rapping this, they all catch emotions
They failed to control me like soil erosion
You getting it all twisted 'cause your mind is tortious
I invested in my music 'cause that's my focus, man
(I never knew)
[Chorus: Lerato Happiness]
I never knew (I never knew)
This time would be me (this time would be me)
I never thought
I would be here today (Oh no)
I never knew
This time would be me (this time would be me)
I never thought
Would be shinning like a star
I never knew (I never knew)
This time would be me (this time would be me)
I never thought
I would be here today (Oh no)
[Outro: Lerato Happiness]
They said I couldn't make it
I'll never get far
They said I couldn't make it
But look where I am now
[Intro: Lerato Happiness]
Heyi hiii
(Heyeyiye, Heyeyiye
Uwe ye eh, uwe ye ye
Heyi ye hiii
(Heyeyiye, Heyeyiye)
Uwe ye ye ya ya ya
(Heyeyiye, Heyeyiye)
Uwe uwe uwe uwe
Yeah
(Heyeyiye, Heyeyiye)
