Murs - Think You Know Me Lyrics
[Chorus:]
You might think that you know me,
You know where I'm coming from,
You might think everything's all good,
But at the end of the day you're all wrong!
[Murs:]
All blue chuck taylors, blue dodger hat,
85 Regal, my daughter in the back.
I'm just a gangsta to most of y'all,
On the real we're just hanging on the way to the mall.
Week days I'm RN down at kaiser Weekends at church, I'm a youth adviser.
Just because I'm doing good I can't forget my roots,
I can never feel right in a tie & suit.
501's a plain white "t" and I stay gettin' stopped by the LAPD.
That's just life growin' up in south central,
I gotta come back, my grandmomma there,
Sometimes it's drama, but I really don't care.
Here's my neighbourhood and I love it,
Showin' all the little homies you can rise above it!
[Chorus:]
You might think that you know me,
You know where I'm coming from,
You might think everything's all good,
But at the end of the day you're all wrong!
[Murs:]
All red chuck taylors and red dodger hat,
Posted up at market with a bottle of yack.
I'm just a gangsta, that's what they say,
But on the real homeboy I just had a bad day.
Ten interviews, no call backs,
PO askin' me where my job at.
I'm an ex-con and it's almost useless,
I'm a felon, don't mean that I'm stupid.
Got cut up, tried as an adult
Lost five years of my life as a result.
In the feds I prayed and I read
Anything to keep the system out of my head.
I read Zinn, Jung, Bukowski
You really don't know a damn thing about me.
I probably gotta higher IQ than you,
These jobs ain't hiring, what should I do...
[Chorus:]
You might think that you know me,
You know where I'm coming from,
You might think everything's all good,
But at the end of the day you're all wrong!
[Murs:]
Black dickies, black Cortez,
White wife beater, a fresh shaved head.
I'm just a gangsta, that's what you thinkin',
You see me in the crew, posted up by Lincoln.
You see my tattoos, figure why I bother,
Really I'm an artist and I got my own parlor
Hard workin' father, wife and two daughters,
Strugglin', trying to keep our heads above water.
I'm a tax payer, I'm bilingual
I'm chicano, I'm not an illegal.
Tryin' to live your American dream,
But you keep judging me about how I wear my jeans.
They're 42s, they're starched and they creased
I gotta education, I got proper speech.
I'm from the streets, I'm not less of a man,
Just trying to get by and do the best that I can!
[Chorus:]
You might think that you know me,
You know where I'm coming from,
You might think everything's all good,
But at the end of the day you're all wrong!

Better than em for sure
Its you who don't understand, how dare you tell me I'm feeling sorry for myself. Have you had 4 elementary schools, Seoul elementary, 2nd elementary which I cant name, then to Prince elementary, then to Lulu Walker elementary... then off to 2 middle schools, 2 high schools... all the while being poor broke, racially discriminated against ANYWHERE we went to. And each time you moved, you left behind a memory of at least 1 friend who you'll never see again. My relatives who passed away now ill never get to meet again also, being harassed by the cops on an occasion, being teased in every classroom you walked into, not having food on the table, or having cloth to wear. So this is what you got for me, I'm feeling sorry for myself... So I used to say, how about understanding, but then I realized its useless, you can teach experience, that's why we call it that, either you been through it or have not, you have it or not. And you sure haven't. Do you think there was time to be concerned over some boyfriend girlfriends, high school prom etc... that privileged life? If there was, do you think it be so easy as to walking up to someone without some racist asshole when you were younger? Fuck you really have no damn clue, how could you.

@onedropp So every person in LA uses that kind of slang? The way you type you sound like the people in my vicinity. And I'm on the 301.
@leeshizzle429 not that it was proper english but that is was the wrong lyrics because he didnt understand the slang BECAUSE he isnt from LA. who asked u? and u def arent from LA.
@onedropp I don't see how typing proper English makes him not from LA. Anyone intelligent human being would write that way.
