Homecoming
Knowmads Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh, I ain′t livin' in the past.
Put the city on my back.
Bet it all on my flow, put a hunnid on the dash.
Bet it all on my soul and my spirit and my raps.
When they talking that yang, I ain′t hearing that trash.
Sound like nothing that you heard that's a fact.
Learned a lot of hard lessons when you livin' life fast.
Put my paws to the test, bet you that I pass.
Few fans round the world with my lifestyle tattoed, questions that they ask you.
Never know the inner works.
Thats how your bestfriend switch over to a different person while you get sober.
Look at how my vision learn, how you gettin all the stills sounding like you isn′t learnin′.
I could be the one to plip your girl to flip molly, but rather be the one to change the world and live prolly.
Watch me go get it turn this civic to a rari.




Hit on my business so i really ain't sorry.
Don′t make sense why you asking me for dollars.

However, he knows that there is always more to learn, and trends in music change all the time.

The artist wants to prove that he can thrive, turning a basic Civic car into an exotic ride, building a name for himself, and making sure people know that he means business.
