Lyrical Analysis of...
You’ll Never Know.
- She was a Ukrainian queen that grew close to me
- For weeks I never spoke to her cuz I was fleeced
- As I grew older and the soul became more weak
- I figured I’d give it a chance and let me speak
- So I did, and she liked me, we talked for a bit
- Casual conversations about life and other bits
- Even thought about her being my wife as a jit
- But then again I was excited because I finally had
- A woman that can talk smart and likes me back
- I couldn’t ever let her get back to any men she ever had in the past
- I’d go for her forever, it was like a bad addiction that passed
- Met her at a church studying Christian religion
- She new her business, I knew mine, we were both missioned
- To be with each other, all the glances from her got me to listen
- That she may be the one to heal my past frictions
- Cuz I’ve been rubbing two sticks for too long
- I need a flame to spark before I lose and move along
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- Her name was like the gentleness of a dove's whisper
- The pleasantness of the sound emitting from the scripture
- We were both settled to make life with our pictures
- Us both, we ain’t ever had a sister
- But we had a brother, damn, not 1 mixture
- She was a dancer and I had the answers
- We twirled to my poetry, songs and my stanzas
- She could light a fire under inside Holy Water
- Something like Joan of Arc rising above the harbour
- She was Presilica but better, Elizabeth but modern
- Something about her was more than I could charter
- But I was a baller and I went to school down south
- So our relationship slipped and we went different routes
- She cut me off after I told she couldn’t come down
- Because her mother needed her safely around
- That day I was heartbroken that she had lost me
- But I had to move on before Satan crossed me
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- Years go by and my meaning of life has changed
- It was about getting riches and making the most change
- All I wanted then was a Porsche or a Range
- Or a Gucci umbrella so I stay dry in the rain
- My life then was full of wannabe rich with the glitz
- I had many women popping in and out of my crib
- Parties at my place, drinking till my mind flipped
- Started relationships that went different scripts
- Some I got abused, some others I was accused
- Some turned me to the gym while others: the noose
- I was smothered with rules and the laws I didn’t abide
- And I knew somewhere in my life it’ll kick me on my side
- I called my mother to tell her that I’m doing fine
- She didn’t want to talk because I was to busy making dimes
- And it seemed to her I lost my morals with time
- So I had nothing to fall back onto accept writing some rhymes
- Stopped having sex with women I don’t wanna be with
- Because I know that they’ll give sickness and leave it
- I thought back to her, Naomi, where she’d went
- Down a different path probably better than many men
- Better than me, I mean I’m in a life of sin
- I started reminiscing on the life that could’ve been
- And what it was before she ended it so abrupt
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- She was a must, so pure that I couldn’t even lust
- She never tried to get me to get her stuff
- And I never tried to even sneak a touch
- Never even once did I make her think I wanted some
- Cuz at the time she was more than my number 1
- She was my water, my food and my living
- But then things changed, I indulged in more sinning
- I remember her momma was so happy and her father
- Was a smart man, an educated school scholar
- At the time I was just tryna find my roots, and dollars
- Tryna find the truth beyond this life of blue collars
- She told me that we could be the ones that can teach
- Our own kids the way to live life without greed
- And I agreed to her needs, all she wanted in her carriage
- I even made a vow that I’ll wait until after marriage
- But back to the present as I sit here with a ticket
- On a plain back to Canada to give her a visit
- Figured I’d go to her mom for a tip and shit
- She loved me and hated her for leaving me flippin’
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- So I did exactly that and I had flew back
- It was back to be in a place where no one slew crack
- I went on the hill where I knew her mother stayed
- And said “damn, I could’ve visited here everyday”
- So much nerves filled my gut that day
- I actually was so close from walking off away
- But I stayed intact I knew this is what I had to do
- Try to find a way to find her back to get to chat a few
- Walked out of my car and hit the lock and ran a few
- Steps before I slow trotted examining my stance and shoes
- Knocked on her door and she had answered too
- Gasping saying “Damn I cannot believe that it’s you”
- I gave her a hug before we sat down and brewed
- And conversed about her life and her profoundly news
- We got to talkin as I almost couldn’t ask
- About what I came here to do as my only task
- So we kept talking as we waded through the waters
- Talkin about corruption and the New World order
- But her entire face changed when I asked about her daughter
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- Her mother opened up her lips and told me a date
- Where her daughter had left her alone with a tape
- On June 28th 4 years ago today
- The coincidence was so real I broke down and played
- She said “hey I am sorry about all that I’ve said
- And if you are hearing this now, I am probably dead
- But if I’m not than this will remain locked forever
- And no ears can fathom the sounds of these endeavours
- Josh I wanna say we shoulda been somethign great
- And I’m sorry I cut you off, I wasn’t thinkin straight
- But now it’s too late to turn the tables back around
- So please listen to me, don’t break and fall down
- My body is becoming less of healthy right now
- I was just diagnosed with a severe pneumonic plague
- That’ll leave me in the reapers hands in a couple days
- So as I fade away, these are the lasts words I’ll say
- And they’re to you if you didn’t catch that by the way
- I wanted to tell you I will die a virgin because of you
- I didn’t want to lose my innocence with anyone except you
- Promise me you’ll meet me in paradise separately from the parasites
- Come to me up in heaven, I’ll guide you through the lights
- Live righteous so I can seek in my hands, maybe even tonight”
- From the last words ever spoken from her stopped
- I cried and flew back to my broke old block
- This is the reason why I don’t fall in love people
- I missed her mausoleum placement by the steeple
- You never know whether you’ll get or miss your chance
- Maybe you live long to get 2 of them in advance
- To Naomi who lives until eternity and beyond
- You never know the true importance of someone until they’re really gone
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
- Time waits for no man
- Rhymes can save a poor man
- But don’t invest too much in that
