Knew U Lyrics - Pharcyde

And I still, gotta ask 

You could've told me 

And I thought that I knew you 

Better than that, better than that 

Better than that, better than that 

And I thought that I knew you 

Better than that, better than that 

Better than that, better than that 

And I thought that I knew you 

Better than that, better than that 

Better than that, better than that 

And I thought that I knew you 

Better than that, better than that 

Better than that, better than that 

(So, so, so) 

From the beginnin' it was known 

Had a brother here, but now he's gone, real gone 

He's not six deep, find him on 6th Street 

His mind now mince meat, sleepin' on concrete 

Can tell when she went to sleep, she's still weak 

About a big bro, overdid it one day 

Decide to hit her, no booze, no drugs, no playaz 

No thugs, no luv no hugs 

When she caught me, found the stash in the coffee? 

Call me from the pay phone speakin' real softly 

That I've broken the seal of trust 

On her way to her momma's house on the bus 

It was old for us, "Don't make a fuss" she said 

As the tears shed, explained that she felt mislead 

She couldn't take the pain if I was jailed or found dead 

Or if I'd went onside her head 

I tried to convince her, only happens to a few 

How could I question, after all she'd been through 

She said she felt bad, but there was nothin' I could do 

I thought I knew, I thought I knew 

And I thought that I knew you 

Better than that, better than that 

Better than that, better than that 

And I thought that I knew you 

Better than that, better than that 

Better than that, better than that 

Yeah, me and my man's go back way before the music 

I'd never thought that he would lose it and do that 

All year he used to be in my house 

But now I can't wait to smack the taste out of his mouth 

They say that money is the root of all evil 

But not having money is the root of all evil 

Chillin', talkin', walkin' with my people 

Talkin' the walk about how shit goin' be 

We gonna rock under any circumstances 

When I'm on the microphone you know we advancin' 

With or without you, can't fuck with you 

We try to forget you, 'cause we're tryin' to get richer 

And I thought that I knew you 

Better than that, better than that 

Better than that, better than that 

And I thought that I knew you 

Better than that, better than that 

Better than that, better than that 

And I thought that I knew you
