Testo I Know - Illy
Testo della canzone I Know (Illy), tratta dall'album The Chase
I talk a good one, but know that beyond that
I know I would never have made it without you
And I know there ain't much I can do to repay that
The reason I made it through, all I can say is thank you
I talk a good one, but know that beyond that
I know I would never have made it without you
And I know there ain't much I can do to repay that
The reason I made it through, all I can say is thank you
And that's life, it's crazy, ain't it, huh?
From temperamental teenage days
Seemed like all roads led to blazing up
Put my olds through shit deeper than a bass guitar
I couldn't play, but I wrote, and although
My poor folks tried it all, still causing a tow
A borderline war zone within the walls of their home
All out of love, me risking my future, they watching all of it, so
Desperate to help, being forced to let go, now I know
My story's no different to most, and I'm not saying
I done more than the average Joe, just making it known
What happened here, how many parents you know
Could go through that and still back their
Son's rap career? The case ain't closed
And fate saw me come good, Mr Magistrate
Turns out chasing the dream is worth the battle pain
This for those who walked me to my first school day
And who'll be right there when I graduate
Thank you, I had to say it, yeah
I talk a good one, but know that beyond that
I know I would never have made it without you
And I know there ain't much I can do to repay that
The reason I made it through, all I can say is thank you
I talk a good one, but know that beyond that
I know I would never have made it without you
And I know there ain't much I can do to repay that
The reason I made it through, all I can say is thank you
'Cause with me, you'd leave nothing to fate
And for that, I know I account for every one of your greys
And the kicker is I know you'd have it no other way
And that's love, there ain't much I can say, but let me try
'Cause every problem I faced, they faced it with me
And added handfuls of stress on top of already chockers plates
And Stephanie, everything I lack, she's got it in spades
Look, I'm just sorry this song's an hour late
'Cause if I'm honest, from sports days to court dates
From 40/40 in the hallways to kicked out of schools
They backed me always, it made for quick recoveries
'Cause no matter how bad I fucked up, they never once gave up on me
It goes much deeper than just something I wrote
I'm choking up trying to get this past the lump in my throat
Guess I could never say enough, I could never make it up
But till I'm dust, I'ma try 'cause it's love, and with us
It's nothing but enough
I talk a good one, but know that beyond that
I know I would never have made it without you
And I know there ain't much I can do to repay that
The reason I made it through, all I can say is thank you
I talk a good one, but know that beyond that
I know I would never have made it without you
And I know there ain't much I can do to repay that
The reason I made it through, all I can say is thank you
For your support when I was down on my luck
Credit's due, I feel I owe you that much
All I can say is thank you
For all the heartaches that we've overcome
Wish I could change it, but what's done is done
All I can say is thank you
For all the times that I bitten my tongue
And later on kicked myself for not speaking
Believe me, you're second to none
And this here's just for being your son
I just wanted to say, I just wanted to say
That I know
I talk a good one, but know that beyond that
I know I would never have made it without you
And I know there ain't much I can do to repay that
The reason I made it through, all I can say is thank you
I talk a good one, but know that beyond that
I know I would never have made it without you
And I know there ain't much I can do to repay that
The reason I made it through, all I can say is thank you
