Pump it up a little bit
Alright look
[verse one]
See I never really new life could be so hard
I never really new pain til I got scared
I never knew people could be so cold
I never knew wrong til I was ten years old
I never knew fighten til I got my ass kicked
I never knew gettin’ got til I got tricked
I never knew healthy til I got sick
And I never knew people killed people so quick
YoI never knew mind power could be so deep
And I never knew hardship was mine to keep
And I never knew the wolves attack the sheep in their sleep
And I never knew people played people so cheap
YoI never knew that we was in such bad shape
And I never knew what I would have to do for the papes
And I never knew that I would put my life on tape
And I never knew hip hop would be my escape
See I never knew real folks could be so few
And I never knew so many people don’t got a clue
And I never knew beautiful til I met you
Butnever say never because it never comes true
[verse two]
Hey yoI never knew that some nigga’s just don’t bury beef
I never knew that I brought you so much grief
I never knew that you was a two time thief
The way you stole my heart was beyond belief
YoI never knew my medicine would come in a leaf
And I never knew that life could be so brief
And I never knew that I would get no relief
I never knew so many indians that wanna be chief
YoI never knew the wrong move could cost yo life
And I never knew the wrong move could cause yo strife
And I never knew money could just buy you fun
And I never knew so much power came with a gun
YoI never knew that I would have such bad luck
And I never knew the next man could get you stuck
And I never knew lighting til I got struck
And I never knew that you would go so low for the buck
YoI never knew real folks could be so few
And I never knew so many people don’t got a clue
And I never knew beautiful til I met you
Butnever say never because it nver comes true
[verse three]
SeeI never knew the future would be like the past
And I never knew a woman could just slang that ass
YoI never knew that you were so sassafras
I never knew that you played the game so fast
I never knew that there was no time to waste
And I never knew no one who could take your place
YoI never knew reality til you showed me a taste
And I never knew how you made my heart beat race
YoI never knew courage until I got brave
And I never knew discipline until I behaved
And I never knew freedom until I became a slave
And I never knew that I would take this to the grave
YoI never knew that I had so much to lose
And I never knew I had so many to choose
And I never knew an ego was so easily bruised
And I never knew the game until I studied the rules
See I never knew real folks could be so few
And I never knew so many people don’t got a clue
And I never knew beautiful til I met you
But never say never because it never comes true
(truetrue)
[refrain]
Never say never because it never comes true
I never knew that I would be about the revenue
Never say never because it never comes true
OhI never knew that you didn’t know what they was telling you
Never say never because it never comes true
I never knew this about the heaven and the hell in you (ha yeah)
Never say never because it never comes true
I never knew
