WHAT YOU KNOW? Video (MV)

What do you know about a life like this?
What do you know about a life like this? Oh yeah
What do you know about a life like this?
What do you know about a life like this? Oh yeah
What do you know?

What you know about being a youngin' watching your momma
Struggling for a dollar in a country that doesn't want her?
She just tryna feed her baby, I was grateful for that
We never had much but love, a whole plateful of that
What you know about being scared and looking at the clock
Thinking "momma's on her way, yeah she should be off the clock"?
What you know about fear when she's five minutes late?
She should be here at 5:30 like every other day
Praying, hoping, she's okay, and tell myself that she'll be safe
Cause I know at any time a cop could take my mom away
And it's already bad that my daddy ain't in the picture
But I worry for them both, because I been known life's a bitch
They took my uncle, then another, one was momma's brother
So it's been a little minute since we last seen each other
And my momma told me stories bout times in Mexico
Growing up broke as f*ck, a life she ain't want me to know
So she gave me all she can, taught me thank you and please
And said you're lucky, there's a lot of kids without what they need
Don't got clothes, don't go to school, don't got nothing to eat
It could be worse for you and me if I don't make these ends meet

What you know about this life of being broke and being nothing?
What you know about this life where being broke is being nothing?
I think that's all you know
Shit, I think that's all we know

So now I'm 19, I ain't go college
I graduated, that's fosho, just to be acknowledged
So the fam could be proud, I'm just keeping my promise
Cause to be honest, man I hated it, but they all applauded
I'm on a mission just to make it with these songs I'm creating
I got better over time since 13, I keep changing
I'm just doing what I do, don't really wanna be famous
I just wanna be the spark or spark the mind that could change us
I wanna spread a lot of love and go hard at everything I do
Let you all know there ain't no difference between me and you
I wanna feed my family and trust me Imma see it through
Tired of having nothing, being nothing, dawg how bout you?
I'm tired of being depressed and going nowhere
I'm tired of knowing these people around me don't care
I'm tired of asking for support and not getting it
I get it they all won't like you and that's okay I'll live with it
What bothers me is that they'll come around and just ask for shit
Like I didn't grind to master it, now you want an answer quick?
Man that ain't my problem when you took me for granted
Everything I got in life, I obtained, wasn't handed
And I don't plan on slipping, dawg you trippin' if you think so
Fast life living, so excuse me while I drink slow
I got a lot on my mind, taking a day at a time
Been through hell, I'm on my way, tell my tell if I die

What you know about this life of being broke and being nothing?
What you know about this life where being broke is being nothing?
I think that's all you know
Shit, I think that's all we know
