You might see me in the street
But nigga you don't know me
When ya holla on the street
Rememba you don't know me
Save all the hatin' and the poppin'
Nigga you don't know me
Quit tellin' niggas you my partna
Nigga you don't know me
Don't be recruitin' keep it movin'
Nigga you don't know me
Hey I ain't trippin' but the truth is
Really you don't know me
Ya you know they call me T.I.
But you don't know me
You be hatin' and I see why
'Cause you don't know me

I think its time I made a song fo niggas who don't know me
I graduated at the streets, I'ma real OG
I been trappin' shootin' pistols since I stood on both feet
So while you niggas actin bad, you gon have to show me
You gone make me bring a chevy to a real slow creek
My niggas hangin' out the window, mouth fulla gold teeth
When the guns start poppin', wonder when its gonna cease
Chopper hitchu on the side and create a slow leak
We been in the speculation 'cause today we gone see
What's the future of a pussy nigga hatin' on me
I giva fuck about the feds investigation on me
I don't care they at my shows and they waitin' on me
I'ma keep a flossy poppin' long as to is on the beat
Tell police that I ain't stoppin' I'ma keep it in the streets
Contrary to yo believes, I'm as real as you can be
Fuck yo thoughts and yo feelings nigga you don't know me

You might see me in the street
But nigga you don't know me
When ya holla on the street
Rememba you don't know me
Save all the hatin' and the poppin'
Nigga you don't know me
Quit tellin' niggas you my partna
Nigga you don't know me
Don't be recruitin' keep it movin'
Nigga you don't know me
Hey I ain't trippin' but the truth is
Really you don't know me
Ya you know they call me T.I.
But you don't know me
You be hatin' and I see why
'Cause you don't know me

Hey once again let me remind you nigga you don't know me
So don't be walkin' up and askin' whats the deal ona Ki
I don't know if you wearin' wires you could be the police
If I was slangin' dope you couldnt get an OZ
See me at the PSC follow thru and tha show deep
Homies holdin' up the doe, 'cause they know we tote heat
I just wanna wrap a C, blow a dro ina flee
Only playin' bout a dozen different pictures in a week
I just wanna chill with country and his daddy Freddy G
Ballin' out every time, every stone is but a G
Wanna ball in the Bahamas courtesy of KT
Fact I only gotta Mill, as well as a dolla DP
Ak house on the hill right next to JG
Every week be there for lunch, busta blunt and eat free
Get in day paid Lil Craig dead meat
That's the only shot we got at gettin' cap back on the streets

You might see me in the street
But nigga you don't know me
When ya holla on the street
Rememba you don't know me
Save all the hatin' and the poppin'
Nigga you don't know me
Quit tellin' niggas you my partna
Nigga you don't know me
Don't be recruitin' keep it movin'
Nigga you don't know me
Hey I ain't trippin' but the truth is
Really you don't know me
Ya you know they call me T.I.
But you don't know me
You be hatin' and I see why
'Cause you don't know me

You see a nigga hatin' on a G
Ask em what's it gonna be
Whatcha lookin' at, pussy nigga you don't know me
At the club, in the streets
Or where ever we should meet
It's choppa choppin' pistols poppin' nigga you don't know me
You see a nigga hatin' on a G
Ask em what's it gonna be
Whatcha lookin' at, pussy nigga you don't know me
At the club, in the streets
Or where ever we should meet
It's choppa choppin' pistols poppin' nigga you don't know me

You might see me in the street
But nigga you don't know me
When ya holla on the street
Rememba you don't know me
Save all the hatin' and the poppin'
Nigga you don't know me
Quit tellin' niggas you my partna
Nigga you don't know me
Don't be recruitin' keep it movin'
Nigga you don't know me
Hey I ain't trippin' but the truth is
Really you don't know me
Ya you know they call me T.I.
But you don't know me
You be hatin' and I see why
'Cause you don't know me

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
