I Never Knew

Pump It Up a Little Bit

Alright Look

[verse One]

See I Never Really New Life Could Be So Hard

I Never Really New Pain Til I Got Scared

I Never Knew People Could Be So Cold

I Never Knew Wrong Til I Was Ten Years Old

I Never Knew Fighten Til I Got My Ass Kicked

I Never Knew Gettin' Got Til I Got Tricked

I Never Knew Healthy Til I Got Sick

And I Never Knew People Killed People So Quick

Yo, I Never Knew Mind Power Could Be So Deep

And I Never Knew Hardship Was Mine to Keep

And I Never Knew the Wolves Attack the Sheep in Their Sleep

And I Never Knew People Played People So Cheap

Yo, I Never Knew That We Was in Such Bad Shape

And I Never Knew What I Would Have to Do For the Papes

And I Never Knew That I Would Put My Life On Tape

And I Never Knew Hip Hop Would Be My Escape

See I Never Knew Real Folks Could Be So Few

And I Never Knew So Many People Don't Got a Clue

And I Never Knew Beautiful Til I Met You

But, Never Say Never Because It Never Comes True

[verse Two]

Hey Yo, I Never Knew That Some Nigga's Just Don't Bury Beef

I Never Knew That I Brought You So Much Grief

I Never Knew That You Was a Two Time Thief

The Way You Stole My Heart Was Beyond Belief

Yo, I Never Knew My Medicine Would Come in a Leaf

And I Never Knew That Life Could Be So Brief

And I Never Knew That I Would Get no Relief

I Never Knew So Many Indians That Wanna Be Chief

Yo, I Never Knew the Wrong Move Could Cost Yo Life

And I Never Knew the Wrong Move Could Cause Yo Strife

And I Never Knew Money Could Just Buy You Fun

And I Never Knew So Much Power Came With a Gun

Yo, I Never Knew That I Would Have Such Bad Luck

And I Never Knew the Next Man Could Get You Stuck

And I Never Knew Lighting Til I Got Struck

And I Never Knew That You Would Go So Low For the Buck

Yo, I Never Knew Real Folks Could Be So Few

And I Never Knew So Many People Don't Got a Clue

And I Never Knew Beautiful Til I Met You

But, Never Say Never Because It Nver Comes True

[verse Three]

See, I Never Knew the Future Would Be Like the Past

And I Never Knew a Woman Could Just Slang That Ass

Yo, I Never Knew That You Were So Sassafras

I Never Knew That You Played the Game So Fast

I Never Knew That There Was no Time to Waste

And I Never Knew no One Who Could Take Your Place

Yo, I Never Knew Reality Til You Showed Me a Taste

And I Never Knew How You Made My Heart Beat Race

Yo, I Never Knew Courage Until I Got Brave

And I Never Knew Discipline Until I Behaved

And I Never Knew Freedom Until I Became a Slave

And I Never Knew That I Would Take This to the Grave

Yo, I Never Knew That I Had So Much to Lose

And I Never Knew I Had So Many to Choose

And I Never Knew An Ego Was So Easily Bruised

And I Never Knew the Game Until I Studied the Rules

See I Never Knew Real Folks Could Be So Few

And I Never Knew So Many People Don't Got a Clue

And I Never Knew Beautiful Til I Met You

But Never Say Never Because It Never Comes True

(True, True)

[refrain]

Never Say Never Because It Never Comes True

I Never Knew That I Would Be About the Revenue

Never Say Never Because It Never Comes True

Oh, I Never Knew That You Didn't Know What They Was Telling You

Never Say Never Because It Never Comes True

I Never Knew This About the Heaven and the Hell in You (Ha Yeah)

Never Say Never Because It Never Comes True

I Never Knew
