Always Knew - Russ

Always knew I had to put in work

Always knew that this was gonna work

Always knew that I’d bring home the bands

Always knew that I’d become the man

I always knew that second guessing

Was the opposite of truth

I bet my future on my faith

And let myself do what I do

Now my gambles looking like

They weren’t gambles after all

I always knew, I always knew

Yeah, I always knew

Shows overseas and they sold out

Made your girl bring the ho out

Lotta' people tryna get in contact

Lotta' people tryna get a contract

Cause they want my name on a X

I ain’t gonna' lie yeah I think about my ex

I ain’t gonna' lie yeah I think about the checks

I ain’t gonna' lie yeah I think I got next (come on)

Always been the one my fam' turned to, uh

Skeptics Imma' convert you, uh

Give your girl something she can twerk to

This is what rap star perks do, uh

Always knew I’d have 'em all callin'

Always knew I’d have a couple options

Always knew the money was a sure thing

Always knew I’d make the whole world sing

Always knew I had to put in work

Always knew that this was gonna work

Always knew that I’d bring home the bands

Always knew that I’d become the man

I always knew that second guessing

Was the opposite of truth

I bet my future on my faith

And let myself do what I do

Now my gambles looking like

They weren’t gambles after all

I always knew, I always knew

Yeah, I always knew

Always knew I couldn’t trust nobody

Always knew I had to trust myself

Always knew they’d try and call me cocky

Always knew they didn’t love themselves

Back in Atlanta and I’m workin'

Always knew it’d paid off to be observant

Always knew I’d end up in a car with curtains

Always knew I’d elevate to a new version

Of my self

These shots so strong feel the recoil

Who’s loyal?

I don’t need two hands

Same ones I came in with

Oo-yeah

Always knew I had to put in work

Always knew that this was gonna work

Always knew that I’d bring home the bands

Always knew that I’d become the man

I always knew that second guessing

Was the opposite of truth

I bet my future on my faith

And let myself do what I do

Now my gambles looking like

They weren’t gambles after all

I always knew, I always knew

Yeah, I always knew
