Knew U

And I still, gotta ask You could've told me [Chorus: x3] And I thought that I knew you Better than that, better than that Better than that, better than that So, so, so From the beginning it was known Had a brother here, but now he's gone (real gone) He's not six deep, find him on 6th Street His mind now mince meat, sleeping on concrete Can tell when she went to sleep, she's still weak About a big bro, overdid it one day Decide to hit her, no boos, no drugs, no playas No thugs, no love no hugs When she caught me, found the stash in the coffee? Call me from the payphone speaking real softly That I've broken the seal of trust On her way to her momma's house On the bus, it was old for us, don't make a fuss She said, as the tears shed, explained that she felt Mislead, she couldn't take the pain if I was jailed Or found dead, or if I'd went onside her head I tried to convince her, only happens to a few How could I question, after all she'd been through She said she felt bad, but there was nothin' I could do I thought I knew, I thought I knew [Chorus: x2] Yeah, me and my man's go back way before the music I'd never thought that he would lose it and do that All year he used to be in my house, but now I can't wait to Smack the taste out of his mouth They say that money is the root of all evil, but not having money Is the root of all evil, chilling, talking, walking with my people Talking the walk about how shit goin' be, we gonna rock under Any circumstances, when I'm on the microphone You know we advancin', with or without you, can't fuck with you We try to forget you, cause we're trying to get richer [Chorus] --- Knew U - The Pharcyde
