Always Knew

Always knew I had to put in work Always knew that this was gonna work Always knew that I'd bring home the bands Always knew that I'd become the man I always knew that second guessing Was the opposite of truth I bet my future on my faith And let myself do what I do Now my gambles looking like They weren't gambles after all I always knew, I always knew Yeah, I always knew Shows overseas and they sold out Made your girl bring the hoe out Lotta people tryna get in contact Lotta people tryna get a contract 'Cause they want my name on a X I ain't gonna lie yeah I think about my ex I ain't gonna lie yeah I think about the checks I ain't gonna lie yeah I think I got next, come on Always been the one my fam' turned to Skeptics I'ma convert you Give your girl something she can twerk to This is what rap star perks do Always knew I'd have 'em all callin' Always knew I'd have a couple options Always knew the money was a sure thing Always knew I'd make the whole world sing Always knew I had to put in work Always knew that this was gonna work Always knew that I'd bring home the bands Always knew that I'd become the man I always knew that second guessing Was the opposite of truth I bet my future on my faith And let myself do what I do Now my gambles looking like They weren't gambles after all I always knew, I always knew Yeah, I always knew Always knew I couldn't trust nobody Always knew I had to trust myself Always knew they'd try and call me cocky Always knew they didn't love themselves Back in Atlanta and I'm workin' Always knew it'd paid off to be observant Always knew I'd end up in a car with curtains Always knew I'd elevate to a new version Of my self, 2.0 These shots so strong feel the recoil Who's loyal?
