[English]

Trauma Tone

I know, I know, I know

I know, I know, I know (what you know Quan?)

You ain't that nigga you say you is (well, how you know though?)

Just know that I know, I know, I know (okay!)

Them streets, they fuck with me strong (hey)

And them bitches gon' fuck just because money long

You know that I know, I know, I know

Well, you know that I know it I know it I know (you know I know wassup?)

You a fuck nigga and it ain't a secret (secret)

I'm so official they can referee it (they know I am)

Black gun, white work, I got jungle fever (they know I do)

28 on the scale, all I drop is ether (Rich Homie)

Get money, break bread, gotta feed your people

Every day like Thanksgiving, everybody eating

I put work in the hood, let my homies grind (they grind)

I do what I do to see my niggas shine (ain't niggas shit)

I know what I know and man that's all I know (that's all I know)

I take 63 grams and try to make a four (four)

That's a couple ounces if I get it right

Wanna see my homies rich cuz nigga this the life (I know)

I know, I know, I know (you know I know, nigga)

I know, I know, I know (what you know Quan?)

You ain't that nigga you say you is (well, how you know though?)

Just know that I know, I know, I know (okay!)

Them streets, they fuck with me strong (hey)

And them bitches gon' fuck just because money long (money long)

You know that I know, I know, I know

Well, you know that I know it I know it I know

I know that you ain't that nigga you claim to be (nah)

Despite how much money I make this shit ain't changing me (uh-huh)

I know, I know, I know (a lot of these niggas, they lame to me)

I'm blown, I smoke what I rolled (the same nigga that I came in with) (rich Homie baby)

I'm on the West Coast in a low rider

Four bitches tryna leave with me

Ain't enough room and I don't know y'all

I'm high as fuck, you a low pie

I got a pharmacy ho for them narcotics

Put a potato on it make it shoot silent

Fuck wrong with you? You profiling

I done made a million and I didn't go to college (fuck you mean)

And all my niggas locked for some work, best believe he goin' silent

He don't know nobody, can't trust nobody but yo'self (Rich Homie)

So believe me when I tell you that I know about it

When I asked yo ho about it, she said me and Yo Gotti

The realest niggas left and I told that bitch

I know, I know, I know (you know I know, nigga)

I know, I know, I know (what you know Quan?)

You ain't that nigga you say you is (well, how you know though?)

Just know that I know, I know, I know (okay!)

Them streets, they fuck with me strong (hey)

And them bitches gon' fuck just because money long

You know that I know, I know, I know

Well, you know that I know it I know it I know

I wanna see my homies rich forever

I know some secrets, I'll never tell 'em

I got some birds but I'd never mail 'em

You in love with Instagram hoes and you ain't never met 'em

Pocket full of money, boy I know the feeling

I know that niggas hatin' that's why I lost the civic

And the drophead, of the 71 cutlass on 8's

And my wife beater on, with my hat to the back started from the bottom like Drake

But I'm with the same old niggas that I started with

Same young niggas I was robbing with

And if these niggas have a problem with

Got them automatic pistols no revolver shit (bang!)

And I know niggas sell they soul, go against they guy

Fuck niggas, playin' like they real, living in disguise

Homie what you know?

I know, I know, I know (you know I know, nigga)

I know, I know, I know (I see through that shit, ho)

You ain't that nigga you say you is (well, how you know though?)

Just know that I know, I know, I know (okay!)

Them streets, they fuck with me strong (hey)

And them bitches gon' fuck just because money long (money long)

You know that I know, I know, I know

Well, you know that I know it I know it I know
