Aceyalone - I Never KnewLyrics

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 Yo, I 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 Yo, I 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 But, never say never because it never comes true [Verse Two] Hey yo, I 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 Yo, I 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 want to be chief Yo, I 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 Yo, I 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 Yo, 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 nver comes true [Verse Three] See, I never knew the future would be like the past And I never knew a woman could just slang that ass Yo, I 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 Yo, I never knew reality til you showed me a taste And I never knew how you made my heart beat race Yo, I 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 Yo, I 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 (true, true) [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 Oh, I 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
