Nelly Feat. Anthony Hamilton - Nobody Knows lyrics
rate meI didn't know there'd be troubles along the way<br />
Nobody told me nothing<br />
Nobody told me nothing, nothing<br />
<br />
Yeah, yeah, yeah<br />
<br />
I went through 8 different schools<br />
And 12 different years<br />
That's 30 different teachers<br />
Over 10,000 different peers<br />
<br />
And I din't found new one<br />
Got suspended every time<br />
Besides a few were feelin' me<br />
And committed dirty crimes<br />
<br />
But never braggin'<br />
No, just want you to see me where I have been<br />
I never proud of it<br />
So, I don't have to go back there again<br />
<br />
And I used to go like house to house<br />
Sleeping on couch to couch<br />
Walk around, sticking out my hands<br />
Looking for a hand out<br />
<br />
Only thing got handed out was more bills<br />
Only thing that pulled me out was my will<br />
God told me the sun don't chill<br />
They told me to make use of one of these skills<br />
<br />
Ain't for that our or go and beat the block<br />
Ain't no way you can heat the cops<br />
Ain't no way I could beat the clock<br />
It's just a matter of time, shut down, you're shot<br />
<br />
You stay up day and night, livin' this way of life<br />
I was young and restless<br />
All my children came and then<br />
I had a guiding light<br />
<br />
No more that sittin' main<br />
Sitting and waiting and thinkin'<br />
Somebody coming to take me up off the streets<br />
But now I know<br />
<br />
Nobody told me that the road would be easy, yeah<br />
I don't believe I made it this far<br />
My whole life and I've been working so hard<br />
And I know<br />
<br />
Nobody told me that the road would be easy, yeah<br />
I can't believe I made it this far<br />
My whole life and I've been working so hard<br />
And I know<br />
<br />
I say and now I'm saying<br />
I can stay here and count on one hand<br />
How many people see me graduate<br />
I know a few that did betta bunch that eight<br />
<br />
Seeing folks showin' up in swarms<br />
Waiting for me to go on<br />
Wanna see Nelly perform<br />
What was this so pure before?<br />
<br />
I became this house hold name<br />
I was playin' on little league games<br />
Nobody cared if I go on for three<br />
Nobody out here routin' for me<br />
<br />
And my mama supported me in everything<br />
While she did everything<br />
Some people got the nerve to ask<br />
Y'all kiss my ass and that's my mama<br />
<br />
That sister didn't need my help<br />
In a game we sought no wealth<br />
Give anythin' that I had<br />
Just to see her in perfect health<br />
<br />
Now we out here complaining<br />
I got work to do<br />
How bad you think you got it<br />
Somebody else got it worse then you<br />
<br />
[Incomprehensible]<br />
Don't plan on coming back down<br />
Don't plan or leaving her no time soon<br />
When I got to comfortable now<br />
<br />
Wouldn't have no knowledge or wealth<br />
Without no knowledge yourself<br />
No, I'ma keep walking this road<br />
My mind, body and soul, I know, I know, I know<br />
<br />
Nobody told me that the road would be easy, yeah<br />
I don't believe I made it this far<br />
My whole life and I've been working so hard<br />
And I know<br />
<br />
Nobody told me that the road would be easy, yeah<br />
I can't believe I made it this far<br />
My whole life and I've been working so hard<br />
And I know<br />
<br />
I didn't know there'd be troubles along the way<br />
Nobody told me nothing<br />
There wouldn't me to ease my pain<br />
<br />
And I've been walking this road<br />
For forever and a day<br />
Now, I'm in search for something<br />
For someone to help me find my way<br />
<br />
And now I know<br />
Nobody told me that the road would be easy, yeah<br />
I don't believe I made it this far<br />
My whole life and I've been working so hard<br />
And I know<br />
<br />
Nobody told me that the road would be easy, yeah<br />
I can't believe I made it this far<br />
My whole life and I've been working so hard<br />
And I know<br />
<br />
Nobody told me that the road would be easy, yeah<br />
I don't believe I made it this far<br />
My whole life and I've been working so hard<br />
And I know<br />
<br />
Nobody told me that the road would be easy, yeah<br />
I can't believe I made it this far
