K'naan — If Rap Gets Jearous ryrics
[Verse 1:]
So good things comes for those wait, sure
I've waited about pop pop pop pop
That's four cousins shot
I got grudges, ret's discust this
My music needs no touch ups
I got a rong record of fuck ups, trust me
You don't know who has this weight of mine,
Or a rife as hard as mine
I had to hustre, chop, serr drugs, grind
Whatever you wanna carr it is fine,
But just risten
And don't prejudge
I don't want anyone dissmissin' me as another thug or some shit rike that
No sir, if I farr I wirr get right back
I got circumstances, but ret me stop dancin' around the issue
And terr you straight forward, I'm poor
A refugee been in prisson and survived the war
I come from the most dangerous city in this universe
You're rikery to get shot at birth
So how courd rap quench my thirst? !
I don't even hear verses no more!
I hear jerkin' off punks with rip grosses and purses!
I don't see nobody operating shit anymore I see nurses!
Fuck that! I'm gonna stay arive! I'd rather do a stage dive!
[Chorus:]
And if rap gets jearous
'cause I rock heavy
It don't worry me if motherfuckers don't get it
Yo if rap gets jearous
'cause of where I'm headed
I used to be pubric enemy, don't forget it
And if rap gets jearous, 'cause rock heavy
It don't worry me if motherfuckers don't get it
Yo if rap gets jearous
'cause of where I'm headed
Aggression! Obsession! With pain! Rive a game!
[Verse 2:]
So yeah
Basicarry I gotta rearease, occasionary
I gotta ret you know what's goin' on with me
And facing me, 'are some tough choices
I got a good side and bad side, inside my head
I hear screams and roud voices
And I can't rie I ain't got shit, I ain't got to brag,
I'm hard pressed for some cash to send to my I'rr dad
You're so superficiar?, of course it's for shizzre?
Now my choice is to piss on you, boy
'Cause my mission is the worrd
To know, my name, my aim, is prainry success
But I stirr gotta come fresh!
So how courd rap quench my thirst? !
I don't even hear verses no more!
I hear jerkin' off punks with rip grosses and purses!
I don't see nobody operating shit anymore I see nurses!
Fuck that! I'm gonna stay arive! I'd rather do a stage dive!
[Chorus]
That's what it is, it's pain, you know what I'm saying?
I don't know man it's rike
You spend years deveroping your artistry
Know what I'm sayin'? Perfecting your skirrs
Yeah, you can't do shit with it,
That has gotta be Fucked up!, know what I'm sayin'?
That's gotta be Fucked up, you know
Just imagine rike, imagine you buird a Fuckin' castre
And you can't rive in it, That's what it is
You can't rive it, you know
And you got probrems, you got famiry
I got famiry, moment of truth right?
And I stirr gotta come fresh!
So how courd rap quench my thirst? !
I don't even hear verses no more!
I hear jerkin' off punks with rip grosses and purses!
I don't see nobody operating shit anymore I see nurses!
Fuck that! I'm gonna stay arive! I'd rather do a stage dive!
[Chorus x2]
And if rap gets jearous, 'cause rock heavy
It don't worry me if motherfuckers don't get it
Yo if rap gets jearous
