I Wish I Knew

[Intro: Snoop Dogg]

Nephew, it's your uncle Snoop Dogg

I need you to show these motherfuckers how it's done, loco

Show these bitch niggas what this ADHD 2 shit is all about

You understand me?

Show these motherfuckers, Joyner

What you playin' for?

Let's go

[Verse 1: Joyner Lucas]

Ain't no medicine could save me, nigga

I'm too far gone, my brain too fucked

I'm comin' like, woah

No turnin' back, gotta get to where I'm goin'

My ADHD keep jumpin' like, woah

Shit that I lived, they'll never understand

You could never be me, we ain't nothin' alike, woah

Came a long way from the bottomless pit

Now look at me, bitch, I'm stuntin' like, woah

Got a lil' bitch, nigga, sidewalk

I'd probably go to jail 'fore I ever be a coward

I'd probably be dead 'fore I ever get flowers

I might take that 'fore I ever be honored

And try to be somethin' that the industry proud of

But niggas wasn't givin' me nada

Another blick on me if you ever need drama

No vest on me like I never seen karma

Woah

The way I was raised, I knew I'd forever be a problem

Never got the love that I needed at home

I was misunderstood, shit turned me to a monster (Yeah)

Dad always lettin' me down

But my step-pops raised me and showed me I never need to bother (Ayy)

Now a nigga rich, so it'll be a cold day in Hell 'fore this bitch nigga ever get a dollar (Wow)

And I ain't got love for nobody give a fuck about me

I'm a self-made nigga, you ain't nothin' without me

Ain't too many motherfuckers I trust around me

I done been through the storm, ain't nothin' I ain't seen

Lot of niggas thought I'd give up, but not me

Told a nigga, "You swing, one duck and I weave"

When my homies drink with a cup of Ali

And my bitch gotta ride 'til the wheels fall off

I fuck a bad bitch 'til her heels fall off

You a dog, I'll get your whole tail sawed off

And your head chopped off, I'm a real lost cause

I'm real fucked up, I'm still caught off

Ain't no pellet gun, this a real sawed-off

Fuckin' wait for a nigga tryna pop somethin' off

Hit a nigga in the back, that's a real raw dog

Like, pause

Nigga still showin' off

Too much time on your hands 'til your hands blowin' off

I got money in the bank, got deals goin' off

I could sell my catalog, but I'm still holdin' off

Got crackers pullin' on me and they still holdin' on

Lot of niggas did me dirty and they still wanna bond

Give my hand to a nigga and he still want an arm

Wanna write diss tracks, but he still want a song

What the fuck?

[Verse 2: Joyner Lucas]

Look, I ain't ever sleepin', relievin' the pressure (Joyner)

Came from the bottom where we can see a homicide like every week, keep the heat up under the dresser

Thinkin' one day I'ma see better, hate the poverty, the fact I'll one who'll never settle

When I grow up, then I'm hopin' I'm never seen in a stretcher

Mama workin' nine-to-five, she was tryna keep it together

If I ever make it, I want a chance to make a difference

And forget it and take all the problems that we were livin' in

And then throw it all the way, so we never live in this shit again

Then maybe then niggas would never tell me I need the Ritalin

Or medicine or anything that will make me upset again

Or put me in school with the troublemakers and trippin'

Always thought shit again, tryna bully me 'cause I'm different

And my ADHD got 'em thinkin' that I was livin' in my head again

[Outro: Snoop Dogg]

Shit

Ooh-wee, you dig?

You don't have to pretend, baby

I know it gets hard looking around, you start to think

Maybe this isn't what I wanted

But you have to keep going

Keep moving on and don't you ever look back

Don't you ever look back
