YONAS
I’ve Been Here

[Intro]

[Hook: YONAS]
(I've been here all the time) But you ain't know, you ain't know, you ain't know
(I've been here all the time) Let me introduce myself again
(I've been here all the time) But you ain't know, you ain't know, you ain't know
(I've been here all the time) The summer should have told y'all

[Verse 1: YONAS]
Yo, I've been around for a minute without the hype though
'Cause people are stuck in the dark like their lights broke
The pressure's on, so every song, I pick the right quotes
Now I got reach in the hood as well as with white folks
And every corner there's someone hoping I might choke
But I got news that they might be there forever
Like Allie in The Notebook waitin' on a fucking letter
'Cause when it comes to rappers it's hard to find somebody better, than me
So hold up, cause ain't nobody told us, all we knew was cold cuts, and cherry fruit roll ups
And now they tell us legislation simply ain't for us
But I got dynamite in my music, I'm 'bout to blow up
So woah now, slow down, I'm ready for the showdown
You want it, you can get it, shit, I got enough to go 'round
'Cause ain't nobody in my circle worry 'bout the fame
We just tryna make an imprint on the game

[Hook]
[Verse 2: YONAS]
My new philosophy: "fuck the world if they knockin' me"
I'm 'bout to buy preposterous properties like monopoly, and
Ain't no stopping me 'til the day that they properly crown me the one anomaly inside of this democracy, man
That's period, no commas or apostrophes, we caught up in the cryptic policy, so much hypocrisy, damn
Now I focus on hits and collaborations
Ever since The Proven Theory gave the nation revelations, like
Hold up, cause ain't nobody told us, all we knew was cold cuts and cherry fruit roll ups
And now they tell us legislation simply ain't for us
But I got dynamite in my music, I'm 'bout to blow up
So woah now, slow down, I'm ready for the showdown
You want it, you can get it, shit, I got enough to go 'round
'Cause ain't nobody in my circle worry 'bout the fame
We just tryna make an imprint on the game

[Hook] (x2)
