Know Better
Spit Syndicate Lyrics

Everybody wanna be like them, dress like her, act like him
People try to imitate others and act like someone they are not

Actin' like you don't know no better, actin' like you don't know
Pretending to be ignorant of the wrong actions

Everybody wanna rhyme like Jim, always win, ah but that's a One Day thing
People want to achieve like One Day, but don't know the struggles behind success

Actin' like you don't know no better, that's cool, but now you know
Not knowing what is best, but eventually realizing the right course of action

All together now, I've seen people come and go in this business
Witnessing many people enter and exit the music industry over time

Like it's no one's business, we won't go into specifics
Multiple people have come and gone, but it's not necessary to delve into the details

That's right we talk our own slang, write our own hieroglyphics
Using unique language, specific to the group's identity

We sort the boys from the tourists, tell me can y'all tell the difference?
Differentiating between genuine music artists and those just passing through

Get it, got it, go for mine, gotta get it all the time
Working hard and striving for success at all times

I just don't know no better, we just don't know no better
Acknowledging that everyone makes mistakes and doesn't always know what is best

Anybody out for mine better put in overtime
Warning others that if they try to take what belongs to them, they will need to work hard

Some people wanna act all righteous, wholesome, always pious
Some individuals try to act morally superior to others

They whose horse the highest, often the biggest liars
Those who are arrogant and self-righteous are often dishonest

Fuck 'em, dont do as I say just do what you feel
Disregard others who try to dictate your actions and follow your own instincts

Shit, I stole pizza from Bob Dylan's fridge out in the Hollywood Hills
Revealing a past misdeed of stealing from a celebrity's fridge

It's not a big deal, so you know I'm coming for a slice, I
Downplaying the magnitude of the offense and expressing a desire for more pizza

Do it and I don't think twice, it's alright, but I think I might
Not feeling guilty about past actions, but considering the possibility of repeating them

The young boys came to eat, so baby go and break me a piece off
Hungry individuals are present, and someone is requested to provide food

I'm t'd up at the Airbnb spot, weed so loud you can hear it for three blocks
Being inebriated and smoking potent marijuana in a rented Airbnb property

I know better than to be fuckin' with you
Being aware of the negative consequences of associating with certain individuals

Fuckin' with you, don't tell me nothin'
Being rebellious and not wanting to be told how to live their life

I know better, know that you don't have a clue
Realizing the lack of understanding someone has in a given situation

We know that much is true, yeah, that much is true
Being certain of what is known and true in their own eyes
