"We All Know"


                                            "We All Know"

                                                          By CaneGoHines

We all Know

How we can grow

But even though

Evidence never show

How my kin fo

How to Let their shine glow

Too busy worrying bout gettin mine

Dat cash flow

Willing to go 

Places so Lo

But we all Know

Talking fast but moving slow

Quick to judge the next

At each other's neck

Spilt apart like an shipweck

Preaching but not teaching

Leaching instead of reaching

But we ALL Know

Hearts cold like snow

Bros become Crows

Blocking sunshine from your doe

Peeking out the side window

What I brought from da s'toe

Man in the mirror please let go

This feeling so damn negro

Raised in da corner sto

With a loaf of bread and Faygo soda

Pop in dat era of crack rock

Baseball bats no glock

Crazy how fast the clock hands go

From when we thought we knew it all

You all know what I mean

Seems like days ago 

We ALL Know

But we still Fo !!!!
