Belly - IYKYK Lyrics

The idea of you was my own reflection of distorted perception
Ethereal ether wrapped inside my misdirection
Miss the signs of red flags
Until you end up on a missin' sign with your hair tied in a red rag
Just to reappear jet-lagged, yeah

Uh, when I was young, I made myself a promise
I said only trust yourself, nobody else is honest
Pay me dollars, not homage, I'm sick of bein' modest
Ironic, blessings came from somethin' so demonic
I got a million in diamonds inside the ultrasonic
Polished, the flow iconic, still I'm so neurotic
I treat my product like narcotics, it's economics
Every stream like a fiend that wanna try the chronic
Big dipper, still tippin' out of town strippers
I bet these hoes go down quicker than brown liquor
In my city at night watchin' the lights flicker
I'm gettin' high in the sky villa, my eyes swell up
I'm tellin' time on the sky dweller
I keep my heart in a wine cellar, I tried tell 'em
Thoughts of you give my body chills, my only pleasure
I think I know how a diamond feel, I'm under pressure
Thirty pounds in a Hefty I hope the Lord bless me
My pimp hand ambidextrous, don't make me go lefty (bitch)
Maybe I'm hard to understand, but these hoes get me
I ball hard, I should've got my own Espy

My heart cold, I swear it feel like fifty below
I don't let the pain show, If you know, you know
Man, you used to be my dog, but we don't kick it no more
I still got love for you, If you know, you know
My OG servin' ten, he said the time movin' slow
You gon' be rich when you home, If you know, you know
She could be your dream girl, to someone else she a ho
That's just how the game go, If you know, you know, yeah

If you know, you know (you know)
I told her If you know, you know
You know the vibes, bitch

If you know, you know (you know)
I told her If you know, you know
You know the vibes, bitch

Vicious, how you still around the same bitches?
Got they nose in my business, call it cocaine interest
Heaven, hell, it's the same distance
Cold like the winter solstice that became Christmas, huh
No décor, millions in my floorboards, money walk
Villains line the walls in the corridor, no remorse
Before money, I've been rich
Whippin' 'til this shit made my limbs twitch
The zombies came back with the skin itch
Thriller Live, faces like vanilla sky
I almost had to die just to feel alive
They can't fill the size or walk a mile in these Margiela slides
The revolution won't be televised
Nights become days, I made it out of hell unscathed
Might go back one day just to sun bathe
One way, high beams on, doin' top speed
Cold world, long as we alive, we are not free

(All alone, if I'm alive, I'm not me)
(All alone, if I'm alive, I'm not free)

You know the vibes, bitch
