Drega - All I Know lyrics

rate me

(Intro)

I came to Canada when I was like two weeks old

So that tells you what kinda place you are livin' in

Who takes a two week old and moves him in a brand new country?

The mentality was totally different

That was like all they knew

It was like we gotta get the hell outta here

(Verse)

Started out low

Can't believe my brown ass made it this high

Used to smoke weed every single day

Me and my friends watchin' time pass by

Feelin' like we ain't eva eva eva gon' make it

Outta this town alive

Feelin' like we ain't eva eva eva gon' live

To touch the sky

Parents came to this land of ours

From one of the poorest countries

Don't think their dream for us was to end up a bunch of junkies

Our fathers we neva saw did everything for their money

Our moms, they forcefed us so we would neva go hungry

So we deserve to dream, Chris stop(?!)

We deserve the drop Maybachs, yo

Now fuck what that law say, she ain't neva been no pawn blacks

So get money (get money)

Like my friend Shawty Shot said, we all lookin' fo' a white girl

With the body like Beyonce

And I'm tryna go and get more

Yeah, I'm tryna go and get mo'

We started out all on the flo'

We started out all on the flo'

I remember it straight to my core

I remember it straight to my core

I ain't neva goin' back there

Unless I can do more

(Hook)

That's all I know, that's all I'll eva know

Oh, no, doncha help me x2

All I know, started real low, that's all I know

Yeah, all I know, bout to get high, that's all I know x2

(Verse 2)

Look at us now, we done took ova their town

Put us down, put us deeper in the ground

Now we on top, on top and we flyin'

Look mama, no more cryin'

And even tho we smile, we don't know how to celebrate

We put white names on our resumes

Just to resonate, keepin' up with the Jones'

No, that's not our thing

Cuz we all live in Brampton

So it's keepin' up with the things

Quit knockin' me, come take a ride to the top of me

Come, lemme show you how to work a beat

Come, lemme show you how we all can see our grandmas

They raised us, we don't speak no properly

Our house smell of mockery

But you smell like broccoli

Used to have that full boom

Mama called it fuel bug

Got pulled ova by the cops, man

Told 'em I drive fo' ______(?)

Got off my dad's ______(?)

And it's time to say goodbye

And I luv where I'm from, yo

Hope ya don't get gentrified

(Bridge)

Sometimes where you're from

Lets go if you will let you run

And sometimes where you're from

Lets you holdin' on the smoke and gun

(Interlude)

I think that all our dads, from where I grew up

All our dads were very hands off

They way they raised us was by payin' the bills

That's all they knew, ya know

They didn't ask for help

(Hook)
