AUTHENTIC by KHONAN? Lyrics
[Verse]
New day for the rapping
Khonan's where it's happening (Woo)
Boy in the burbs, born in the Burg
But your boy is batshit (Woo)
Mafia tactics
Do you know who my dad is (Woo)
I was raised to be rational (uh)
I can't blaze with you assholes (Woo, uh)
Or play games with you assholes (Nah, uh)
I'm getting paid off you assholes (Woo, uh)
Niggas spray the pump like asthma (Uh)
Throw the baby with the bath tub (Uh)
Coz niggas is too reactive (Uh)
I'm a hustler an athlete (Woo, uh)
I'm educated got the masters (Khonan, uh)
But I feel like I lack grit
When you saw me I was down bad (Woo, uh)
But I'm better than I last was (Woo)
I uh uh uh with a bad bitch still
At least I got her laughing (Woo, ay, uh)
I was telling her my actions (Ay, uh)
While you were lying on the app (Woo)
You werе lying and massaging facts (Woo, uh)
While I was lying on her mattress
[Hook]
Arе you authentic
Let me know know know
Even with your friends
Let me know know know
[Verse 2]
(Uh)
They been dying for the real
Coz they tired of you actors (Yeah)
I'm a rider for real or whatever that means in the burbs in the outskirts (Uh)
My mates used to move capsules (Uh)
Not the Ritalin or adderalls (Woo)
They got busted they paid coppers
But they got kicked out of school still (Woo, uh)
I never thought I'd take drugs (Uh)
Following my brother's footsteps (Woo, yeah)
My brother taught me how to fight
I was left handed so he taught me how to left hook (Yeah, woo)
When I was 12 my brother showed me how to rap (Woo)
When I was 12 he let me prove it on a track (Woo, woo, uh)
My brother taught me all that with a bootleg Fruity Loops and a passion for rapping (Woo, uh)
Spoke to my brother in a dream (Woo)
He was sad he had to leave (Woo, yeah)
Felt bad he had to leave little brother
To smoke weed in the streets (Woo, damn)
Spoke to my granny in a dream (Uh, yeah)
She said she didn't wanna leave (Woo, uh)
But her little brother passed on too
And the pain was a little too deep
[Hook]
Are you authentic
Let me know know know (know)
Even with your friends
Let me know know know
[Outro]
Let me know know know
Let me know know know
(let me know know)
