You Know
Joell Ortiz Nino Bless St.La Lyrics

Yo yo excuse me
Excuse me, can I have your attention please?

I heard the word from word of mouth
I heard from someone else that you can book flights

That you were into booking flights
I heard you are capable of booking flights

My travel agent took a trip up north and I need to book a flight tonight
My travel agent is unavailable and I need to book a flight tonight

I enjoyed getting away from day to day stress, so I need to leave soon
I need to leave soon to escape from everyday stress

If that's the case, I have no space but for later, I'd be sorry to leave
If there are no flights available right now, I'll have to wait but I don't want to stay long

But that's not gonna do, I know that you can find another flight leaving the same time
Waiting is not an option, I need another flight leaving around the same time

I need to get aboard, I can't afford any penalties to sit in the main cabin
I need to board the flight and can't afford any extra fees to sit in the main cabin

Yo that didn't rhyme
That sentence did not end in a rhyming word

What does? The money. Show the cash and the ticket is yours
Money is all that matters, show me the money and I'll give you the ticket

Cool, here's your green, now I'm up outta the scene. But I'll be back to purchase some more jewels
Great, I've got the money, I'm leaving now but I'll come back to buy more valuables from you

(I like it) More than you know it
I like it more than you could ever imagine

(do you want me baby) I want some mo'!
I want more from you, baby

(do you want me sugar) I want some mo'!
I want more from you, sugar

(I like it) (I like it!)
I really like it

(I like it) (I love it!)
I don't just like it, I love it

Now I'm coming down outta the clouds and I'm running into turbulence
I'm landing and experiencing some turbulence

Feelin like my soul's on fire again
I feel alive and full of energy again

Don't need to bail for safety, show me where the safe be so I can take me another trip
I don't need to worry about safety, just show me where the money is so I can book another trip

To the agency, cause the travel unravel my woes
I need to go back to the travel agency because traveling helps me forget my problems

But now the craving grows, so I need to get a ticket
I have a strong desire to travel again and I need to get another ticket

Some say I'll crash, but it's my life and cash
Some people think I'll have a bad accident, but it's my life and I'm willing to take that risk

Gonna write it out until the end
I'm going to stick with it until the end

Numb, to the lift of the whiff, grow, when I vacate frequently
I've become used to the feeling of takeoff and the growl of the engine when I travel frequently

And I got frequent flyer when I retire to death
I'm a frequent flyer and will continue to travel until I die

Tell em that the big see sent me, and a lot of brothers man. I'm not the only brother at the airport needing a lift
Tell them the boss sent me, and there are a lot of people, especially black men like me, at the airport needing a ride

Was an agent till I was caught and brought to an unfair court, pleading the fifth
I used to sell drugs but was recently caught and appeared in court and chose not to testify against myself

Soft ground I prefer upon the mound, when I pinched a rock for a fee
I'd rather be on the baseball field than in trouble with drugs and drug money

Now others say standing at the bat isn't where it's at, but taking hits is where I'd rather be
Some people say that being a batter is not the way to go, but I actually like getting hit by the ball

Now I bagged this chick but she got me wide, made me lose my friends and my pride
I got involved with a woman who changed me and made me lose my friends and dignity

Had me cashing my checks for her, lost all my self-respect for her
She made me spend all my money on her and I lost all respect for myself in the process

When I was broke she'd go solicit other guys, and if we made love you could see it in my eyes
When I was broke, she'd see other men for money and it was obvious to me when we made love

My fantasy was one day to be a millionaire, so I could reassure that my baby girl was there
My dream was to be rich so I could take care of my significant other

I could feel her love, son, I taste it in her lips. Mentally she was a trip, had a n**** whipped
I could feel her love physically and emotionally and it had me under her spell

A lot of other cats got strung out in the past but I'ma get the love last, then I make a dash
Other guys got caught up in her in the past but I'm going to be the one to make it last and then leave

That's what I thought but Miss Thing was too appealing. When I had no dough for her, she had a nigga stealing
I thought I could resist her charms, but she was too tempting. When I had no money for her, she made me steal

Now I'm incarcerated, honey ain't around. Into withdrawal from her while I'm locked down
Now that I'm in jail, she's not around and I'm experiencing withdrawal from her

Two years down I hear she's still a thick dime, controllin n****s pockets and even ladies minds
Two years later, I heard she's still attractive and controlling other people's money and thoughts

But when she said hi, I had to listen. I'm sweatin beans cause I know I'm gonna bait her, better do it now cause you're bound to do it later
When she approached me, I had to listen. I'm nervous because I know she's going to try and manipulate me again, so I should refuse her now before it's too late

I can't refuse her, my denial's a wish. Fell into her arm when I gave her a kiss, cause I like it
I can't resist her, even though I want to. I end up succumbing to her charms and giving her a kiss because I enjoy it
