They Don't Know Me
SkinnyFromThe9 Lyrics

It's Koncept P, the beat knockin'
This is Koncept P, the producer, and the beat is bumping.

They don't know me (they don't know me)
People don't know who I really am.

They think they know me (think they know me)
People believe they have some understanding of who I am, but they're wrong.

Got no homies (got no homies)
I don't have any close friends.

It's cool, I'm focused
I'm staying focused despite the challenges.

I think I'm chosen (think I'm chosen)
I feel like I was chosen for a specific purpose.

I'm by my lonely (by my lonely)
I'm on my own, I don't have anyone to rely on.

I take all of these niggas on by my lonely
I can handle any challenge or opponent by myself.

Wrist stay frozen (wrist stay froze)
My wrist is covered in expensive jewelry.

Bitches open (bitches open)
Women are attracted to me and easily impressed by my material possessions.

Heart's on coldest (heart's on coldest)
I'm emotionally numb and disconnected from others.

Open season (open season)
Anyone can be a target or victim.

Give me a reason (blip, blip)
I'm ready for a fight, waiting for someone to give me a reason to react.

Evil world
The world is full of darkness and negativity.

All my demons (all my demons, yeah)
I have personal demons that I struggle with.

They gon' move, no speakin', yeah
My enemies will act before they say anything.

You stabbed me, left me bleedin', yeah
Someone betrayed me and caused me significant harm.

Don't know what I'm needin' now
I'm feeling lost and unsure of what I need in my life.

I can't even leave the house
I'm trapped by the attention and scrutiny I receive.

And they do it all for clout
People are only interested in me for attention and fame.

Mama stole from me (stole)
My own mother betrayed me by stealing from me.

Brothers told on me (told)
My own family members betrayed me by revealing my secrets.

They not loyal, they just want what all this money bring (money bring)
My so-called supporters are only interested in me for what I can do for them financially.

You don't fuck with me, baby, you just fucking me (fucking me)
You're not really interested in me as a person, just using me for sex.

Before I die, tell me what the fuck you want from me (what you want)
I need to know what people's true intentions are before it's too late.

Ap on me, lost my Rollie (drip)
I have expensive luxury items, but I've also experienced significant loss.

10 bad bitches all up on me (drip)
I attract many beautiful women who are impressed by my status and material possessions.

Got my chain from Avianne (Avianne)
I have expensive jewelry, specifically from the high-end jeweler Avianne.

Why you hatin'? Please don't call me (Please don't call me, please don't call me)
People are only hating on me because of my success and fame, please stop calling me.

They don't know me, put my face up on a screen
People present an image of me based on what they see on social media and television, but it's not the full truth.

They don't know about the times when I had no place to sleep
People don't understand the struggles I've faced in my life.

When I have no food to eat, had no shoes up on my feet
I've experienced extreme poverty and struggled to meet basic needs.

When my mama used to beat me 'til I couldn't fucking breathe
I suffered from child abuse at the hands of my mother.

I was born into this world where people lie, steal, and cheat, ayy
I recognize that the world can be dark and full of dishonesty.

Tryna stay pure but the devil's after me
I'm trying to stay true to myself, but I'm constantly tempted to give in to negative influences.

You can't walk inside my shoes, you can't see the shit I've seen
You can't understand the struggles I've faced because you haven't lived through them.

I was just a little boy, seen my mama do some things, ayy
I witnessed my mother engage in behavior that was harmful to herself and others when I was just a child.

They don't know me but they want the enemy
People who don't know me still want to start problems and create conflict.

Saying that I'm telling 'cause my homie told on me, ayy
People accuse me of being a snitch because someone close to me betrayed me.

Welcome to my evil world, it's filled with jealousy
I recognize that the world I'm living in can be cruel and full of envy.

I'ma leave behind a legacy, overdose on Ecstasy
I want to make a lasting impact, even if it costs me my life.

Friends turn to enemies, well, fuck it, I got enemies
People I thought I could trust have turned against me, but I'm ready to face them.

Million times I thought of leavin'
I've contemplated leaving this life behind many times.

Thoughts I'd stop myself from breathing
Thoughts of suicide have crossed my mind, but I've managed to stop myself.

But this ain't compared to all the shit I've already beaten
I've faced and overcome many challenges in the past, and I can do it again.

They tryna stop me, they tryna pop me off
People are actively working to stop me or even harm me.

'Cause I got the ball, I feel like Rocky, yeah
I have power and control over my own life, like the character Rocky in the movies.

Tryna, tryna stay humble but these people so damn cocky
I want to remain humble, but the people around me are overly confident and egotistical.

It's okay, I don't need 'em because I know that I got me, yeah
Even if I'm on my own, I'm confident in my own abilities and strength.
