Know That Now by Tyler Skyy Lyrics
[Intro: tyler skyy]
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
[Chorus: tyler skyy]
I've been doing it for the city but you know that now
I've been killing every show but you know that now
I've been living like a hippie but you know that now
I've been tracking all this gold but you know that now
Yeah you know that now I got it I can hold it down
Yeah you know that now yeah yeah you know that now
Yeah you know that now I got it I can hold it down
Yeah you know that now yeah yeah you know that now
[Verse: tyler skyy]
This a long way from Houston
This a long way from them dirt roads
A long way from Vernon
Long way from the rock band microphone
But you know that now
Long way from that talent show
Long way from the basement
It's a long way that we have to go I
Put a song out every week for two years
Dropped a couple albums they flopped
But I learned from defeat
Now this new clear (nuclear) vision
Got me running to position ready to drop
And just like the mushroom cloud
That's over your head
So I'm up right now but
We don't need war we need love right now
So I'm out here in the V with a V right now I
Really wanna make the younger me proud
Really wanna show my brother that I'll always be around
Really wanna buy my momma that Harley
I really wanna take my dad on a tour
And get married to Marnie
I really wanna see my sisters so happy
I really do this for my whole family
And every single friend that I got around me
But you know that now
Used to drink the gin like it was water
But I really wanna live to be a father
So I'm focused on tomorrow
Trying to be the best me for my future son or daughter
Remove the limits because you know I'm going farther
And I'm taking my heart with me
Along with every single artificial part in it
I've been working trying to make this art official our city
Deserves a lot of love and I'm cool if it starts with me
So throw them V's way up
If you're in the crowd
It's nothing but peace and love
When I'm around
But you know that now
Yeah you know that now
So throw them V's way up
Let's make the city proud
[Chorus: tyler skyy]
I've been doing it for the city but you know that now
I've been killing every show but you know that now
I've been living like a hippie but you know that now
I've been tracking all this gold but you know that now
Yeah you know that now I got it I can hold it down
Yeah you know that now yeah yeah you know that now
Yeah you know that now I got it I can hold it down
Yeah you know that now yeah yeah you know that now
[Verse: Hungry]
Theres so many things that I wish that I knew
When i was just a kid in my youth
I would smoke I would drink I would skip out of school
I would go and do things I would think they were cool but
I was a little confused
If i could go back then and pick what to do
I think i would choose a different route
But now this shit all come out when i get in the booth
But i can’t help but thinking sometimes
Maybe if I did I'd have a different life
Maybe I'd have never picked up the mic
Now instead I just sit here and write
Feeling sick in the mind but
This is the path that I chose
Trying to pack out these shows and travel the globe
Stack a little dough
Then get back to my family at home
That's what i want
In the lab what we tracking is gold
Put a pad in my lap and I’m gone
Ima snap like I cracked a knuckle
Ima savage I mastered the flow
I’m an addict this crack for my soul
Ima rap until my casket is closed
And I stand as a champ on the throne
From Japan to Iran to in Rome but
You know that now
Tryna get this money told my plug I'll sell the whole pack now
Never really thought I'd have to go that route
But I did and I’m here and I won’t back down
Lately I've been thinking that the way I’m living kinda twisted
It ain't simple and it's so damn wild but
Got so much work to do
Feel like slacking off what I’m allergic to
Killed so many braincells with purp and booze
That I forgot everything that I learned in school but
I learned from mistakes that I made in the past
Turned a new page and tried taking a chance
Work every day yeah I'm breaking my back
Till it burns from the pain and it aches i might collapse
But you always gotta get up when you fall
Because otherwise you'll never be a boss
I know that now
And everything I want is ahead of me
That's destined it ain't god
I do this for my city till I’m gone
[Chorus: tyler skyy]
I've been doing it for the city but you know that now
I've been killing every show but you know that now
I've been living like a hippie but you know that now
I've been tracking all this gold but you know that now
Yeah you know that now I got it I can hold it down
Yeah you know that now yeah yeah you know that now
Yeah you know that now I got it I can hold it down
Yeah you know that now yeah yeah you know that now
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
[Chorus: tyler skyy]
I've been doing it for the city but you know that now
I've been killing every show but you know that now
I've been living like a hippie but you know that now
I've been tracking all this gold but you know that now
Yeah you know that now I got it I can hold it down
Yeah you know that now yeah yeah you know that now
Yeah you know that now I got it I can hold it down
Yeah you know that now yeah yeah you know that now
