Never Know - Jelly Roll feat David Ray

I know right from wrong, the old me is dead and gone
But I must carry on with everything left in me
Cause I'm nothing like the man that I used to be
You're just looking at the man that I grew to be
I wish that you could see my soul, but something's you never know

Yea to be honest, man I've dealt with a couple problems
Instead of running from them maybe I should just solve them
I wake up every day and know that I go hard and
Now I don't owe anybody nothing, not even a post card
Adios, I told them I gotta go
I told my homies that I love them but I gotta walk alone
Cause for everyone told me that I would never
Make it, the old me is dead and it don't need recitation
I had to change my perspective
Change my direction and now in the
Mirror I don't recognize my reflection
My heart was so cold it was frozen twice til
The day I met my daughter and she broke the ice
Come on

I know right from wrong, the old me is dead and gone
But I must carry on with everything left in me
Cause I'm nothing like the man that I used to be
You're just looking at the man that I grew to be
I wish that you could see my soul, but something's you never know

There was a time in my life I'd thought I'd never
Change, I always told my folks that I'll always be the same
Til I woke up with a lot to lose and maybe
Second guess everything I thought I'd knew
But I accept it all, it's part of growing up
It's the song of reality that makes you sober up
And then you wake up as a new man
Change your life around and devise a new plan
Every day I still grind put it all on the line
It's funny how you're life changes in a blink of an eye
And getting to know my daughter just makes me go harder
There's a difference having a kid and being a father
For real!

I know right from wrong, the old me is dead and gone
But I must carry on with everything left in me
Cause I'm nothing like the man that I used to be
You're just looking at the man that I grew to be
I wish that you could see my soul, but something's you never know

Talking to the moon sitting at the cemetery
Tear drop from my cheek to an old b_tchouary
And these songs how I show respect to them and
How I was living I could be buried next to them
But I made it out the game and I made it alive
And not a day goes by that they ain't on my mind
I'm alive and free, really what do I got to complain about
Still got homies in the hood that won't make it out
Made a decision to finally let the past go
So if I seem weird know that I'm not an asshole
I'm just probably thinking about success
Regardless what it is I'm knowing that I'm blessed for real

I know right from wrong, the old me is dead and gone
But I must carry on with everything left in me
Cause I'm nothing like the man that I used to be
You're just looking at the man that I grew to be
I wish that you could see my soul, but something's you never know
