Lyrics to Wish I Knew
Yeah, and I'm recording way in Pittsburgh
I just went to my first hockey game
It's 2:39
(Daydream made it, so it's major, huh)
For all the niggas that done crossed me, I wish that I knew
For all the bitches that broke my heart, forever fuck y'all too
God sent me signs, l ignored 'em and I went straight through (I ignored 'em)
The shit you wouldn't do for me, I did it for you
I've been on the road for so long, been fightin' for so long, but I cannot hold on to you (I cannot hold on to you)
Had to stop answerin' my phone, got problems of my own and I cannot take care of you (I cannot take care of you)
I've been on the road for so long, been fightin' for so long, but I cannot hold on to you (I cannot hold on to you)
Had to stop answerin' my phone, got problems of my own and I cannot take care of you (I cannot take care of you)
For the first time ever, I'm on the road, spendin' time with my pops
Lettin' him see this shit firsthand that his child is a star
We been travelin' city to city (Look)
And it's just the beginnin' (Come on)
And I ain't even close to where I'm goin' (Yeah)
I wish that I knew that old boy was gon' sneak me
I wish I knew I was gon' lose all the shit that I was facin'
I wish that I knew to pass my heart out for my safety
I wish that I knew, I wish that I knew
All these battles I done conquered, really done this shit of honor
Believed a lie that I was promised, chasin' that bag, they prayed I fumble
I wish that I knew when they see you happy, they bring you their problems (Oh)
I wish that I knew
The ones who come up from the bottom envyin' you
Can't tell your dog when he wrong if he don't see it through
When you open up and tell you love her, she take advantage of you (Take advantage of you)
That's why I'm so closed in a world so cruel to you
I'm probably better off without you
For all the niggas that done crossed me, I wish that I knew
For all the bitches that broke my heart, forever fuck y'all too
God sent me signs, l ignored 'em and I went straight through (I ignored 'em)
The shit you wouldn't do for me, I did it for you (I did it for you though)
I've been on the road for so long, been fightin' for so long, but I cannot hold on to you (I cannot hold on to you)
Had to stop answerin' my phone, got problems of my own and I cannot take care of you (I cannot take care of you)
I've been on the road for so long, been fightin' for so long, but I cannot hold on to you (I cannot hold on to you)
Had to stop answerin' my phone, got problems of my own and I cannot take care of you (I cannot take care of you)
My mama cried to me, told me don't trust none of these niggas
I threw that iron in the sea, I put that— fft, on them niggas
Even Ray Charles could see
What I was destined to be
I control my destiny
I control, I control
I wish that I knew to get back up when I fell
I wish that I knew if I was goin' to heaven or hell
I wish that I knew that my story'd sell
I wish that I knew, I wish that I knew
I just went to my first hockey game
It's 2:39
