dont assume you know me
even if you know me
i let you see what i want you to see
you'll get only what i give of me
even if sometimes you can see past that clearly
verse's ability
is his versatility
dont judge me based on another cuz he
probably
no definitely
aint built like me
you dont see with my eyes
even with vision blurred
your mouth dont speak my truths or lies
even if words are slurred
my hands destroy and repair
my hearing aint impaired
you tickle my nose hairs
as it detects your scent
even in a room mopped with vinegar
you think you know me because of money i've spent
and attempts
to drop clothes and get into ya
game recognize game
but dont say aint a **** thing changed
actually aint a **** thing been the same
except you thinking you know me and know what i feel
thinking you know my next line before it revealed
predicting my fate before its sealed
nah i'd rather you treat me like someone new
someone about who
you trying to find out a thing or two
no pre-formed notions that get in the way
no history or track record instant replay
no foregone conclusions
no grand delusions
matter of fact
lets take it back
to when all we had was favorite songs
we've known each other so long
but dont know each other at all
i'm trying to get that problem solved
you still see the boy
but watch the man evolve
