How do you know


Pulling up from a bar flat, superstar
Champagne, caviar, fast car, hit the gas, NASCAR
Coming in first like Ricky Bobby
Breaking up the weed is a sticky hobby
Hit you with the hot box while the beat knocks
Make you see spots when you're clocked by the heat rocks
But the beat don't stop like a juggernaut
Look at what you got, motherfucker, what?
Like it ain't enough, not a little bit
I'm riddlin' bitches with a nickels worth of Spitta's shit, heavy hitter shit
Bustas nowadays that caught a raise
They don't want none of the smoke, it's a purple haze
You don't want the contact, sell the contract
Take the song back when you're blazin' up a strong sack
Stacking up a pile of bands and hands shakin' the hands of fans
They are witness to the grands of stand

How do you know—
How do you know—
How do you know where I'm at when you haven't been where I've been
Understand where I'm comin' from?
How do you—
How do you—
How do you know where I'm at when you haven't been where I've been
Understand where I'm comin' from?

Born from a bad man, the shapeshifter
Quick to pull weapons and straight up get witcha
Some call me psycho 'cause they know
Back up against the wall, I'ma kill all of y'all
Super vato, and they can't handle it
Call Medina from the streets of Los Angeles
We that Lower East Side that went global
Motherfucker must've blew up like Chernobyl
Watch as I flex and maintain
Mad bong hits a high grade to the brain
No joke, all I do is smoke
And get stoned with sophisticated folks
On the scene for the last three decades
Still makin' money, fuck the fame and the accolades
Hip-hop be survival of the fit
Be the fittest in the land or get your ass kicked

How do you know—
How do you know—
How do you know where I'm at when you haven't been where I've been
Understand where I'm comin' from?
How do you—
How do you—
How do you know where I'm at when you haven't been where I've been
Understand where I'm comin' from?
How do you know—
How do you know—
How do you know where I'm at when you haven't been where I've been
Understand where I'm comin' from?
How do you—
How do you—
How do you know where I'm at when you haven't been where I've been
Understand where I'm comin' from?
