I Know What I've Got

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm still young gettin' older by the minute

Reachin' out the millions believe it

I work hard I work fast

I'm gonna take it to the top and I'm gonna laugh

I know what I've got so stop

Knockin' at my wagon ''cause I'm blowin' up spots

Been wherever I go you know I get mad love

To the east to the west

To the north and the south

They know a.c. and they know I get down

To the east to the west

To the north and the south

Keep my feet on the ground and they know that

Ya don't see me braggin'

But then you wanna come and take a knock at my wagon

Giddy up giddy up

And hold up take a look around

Then roll out roll outta town

''cause ya don't see me braggin'

But then you wanna come and take a knock at my wagon

Giddy up giddy up

And hold up take a look around

Then roll out roll outta town

I'm not the type of guy to show off for attention

About the fancy cars and jewels

But let me mention

Girls can't get enough of me

Record company lovin' me

Jealousy from all off the guys?

Hmmmm probably

But that won't get in my way

It ain't stoppin' me

Always reach for the top that's how it's gotta be

Don't worry 'bout the people that hmmm take a pop of me

So on with the show hit the road here we go

To the east to the west

To the north and the south

They know a.c. and they know I get down

To the east to the west

To the north and the south

Keep my feet on the ground and they know that

Ya don't see me braggin'

But then you wanna come and take a knock at my wagon

Giddy up giddy up

And hold up take a look around

Then roll out roll outta town

''cause ya don't see me braggin'

But then you wanna come and take a knock at my wagon

Giddy up giddy up

And hold up take a look around

Then roll out roll outta town

Now wait people wanna know about the way i live

And do my biz

This bright young kid works hard just to make these hits

But never the less they try to attack me

Just to male me react

But spectra's got my back

So come on ''cause we're strong

My label's got the ball rollin' they come correct

From hip hop to pop go look and check

To the east to the west

To the north and the south

They know a.c. and they know i get down

To the east to the west

To the north and the south

Keep my feet on the ground and they know that

Ya don't see me braggin'

But then you wanna come and take a knock at my wagon

Giddy up giddy up

And hold up take a look around

Then roll out roll outta town

''cause ya don't see me braggin'

But then you wanna come and take a knock at my wagon

Giddy up giddy up

And hold up take a look around

Then roll out roll outta town
