kobie dee - basics lyrics

[intro]
yeah

[verse 1]
you don’t know half of the sh+t that i seen
you ain’t been half of these places i been
i put my faith and my trust in a dream
now i’m hoppin’ in planes in pursuit for that c.r.e.a.m. (hey)
i get money legit and i’m glad that it’s clean (yeah)
got me a bag and i built me a team
they used to laugh at the kid as a teen
now they call me a king like i dooried the queen
they call me cousin, but we ain’t relation
my people reside in the gomeroi nation
might put my mum on vacation to show that we made it
i’m sorry for the complication (hey)
now you see a black man winnin’ in a white man’s system
they don’t want to see that sh+t, no way (ayy, ayy)
rather make a black man villain, so police come k!ll him
with a badge and a gun every day, doot+doot+doot+doot (what can i say?)
tell me it is what it is
i’m changin’ this sh+t for my kids (oh)
duffy’s corner down to lexo, we come from the ghetto
and that’s why we doin’ it big (sheesh)
so f+ck what you thought, i do this sh+t for my daughter
thank god we didn’t abort
young and indigenous, you gonna witness a brother
that’s comin’ through, kickin’ down doors
[chorus]
we livin’ good (we livin’ good)
count all my blessings, i learnt all my lessons
from back in the hood (back in the hood)
shouts to the ones that been doubtin’ and never
believed that we would (nah)
i took my chances, and did everything
that i knew and i could (that’s right)
now we livin’ cosy, we livin’ blessed
and we livin’ good

[interlude]
right
right
yeah
yeah (i’ll never go to jail, make me)

[verse 2]
let me take you back in time when sh+t was bad and we was broke
i spent most my time on benders, smokin’ yarndi, sniffin’ coke
put my family through the ropes so much, my mum could hardly cope
sh+t ain’t a joke, man, i was so close to the end of losin’ hope (yeah)
lost so many friends to drugs, i swear that cut me deep
lost some friends to suicide and i still see them in my sleep (sheesh)
sometimes i stop and think, man, will i ever be at peace?
another year, another funeral, another friend deceased
f+ck’s sake
got so much up on my plate
but my daughter looks for guidance so i keep a poker face
hold the whole world on my shoulders, man, we pray for better days
i hope baiame sees my efforts that i put to better ways
i still know that i’m a sinner, don’t think that that’ll change
where the f+ck was jesus christ when i was scr+pin’ up for change?
been through so much sh+t, i’m glad we made it through the rain
but if i had a second chance, i’d probably do this sh+t again
i’m just sayin’
[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
so you seein’ how we livin’ now
f+ck, you thought we’d be the same? sh+t, it’s different now
rather hear me talkin’ like i was a criminal
they don’t wanna hear i’m proud, f+ck it, i’ma scream it loud, ah
came a long way from addiction
these days, it’s good food and h2o in my system
made it out, they hate it now, success leads to confliction
that’s why i keep ’em so distant, ’cause people change in an instant
i got no time for no fake sh+t, and i sure as h+ll don’t take sh+t
loyalty over everything, i’m with the same ones that i came with
never settle for the same sh+t, we was never for the fame
it’s the love, it’s the pain, it’s the art, just the basics
