So when you think you know the whole
you don`t even know the half --> Guru, _Mostly Tha Voice_
Chorus: Shara Nelson and Guru (repeat 2X)
[Shara Nelson] (Guru)
Nobody knows Nobody knows, the insides and out y`all
what I`m goin through Nobody knows what`s behind the scenes
Nobody knows Nobody knows about the hardship and sorrow
what I feel inside Nobody knows about the dreams.. bout the dreams..
[Guru]
I`m catchin a flashback of the days when
my pockets were dry, I only had a few friends
Those same brothers now my family
We`ve been through it all, in this industry
Mad frustrated, ready to flip
because the company was playin me like some dumb kid
Video out and I`m still ridin the train
Workin and hustlin, no pain no gain
Now here comes the spotlight, still somethin`s not right
I gotta pay my rent by five o`clock tonight
Livin on fifty cent noodles
but I`m playin the game, that the brothers know I`m true to
Can`t let up, although the journey is rough
Focus on the goal like it`s the Stanley Cup
I gotta play this thing for keeps
My only stress relief is the hip-hop beats
Chorus: Shara Nelson and Guru
[Shara Nelson] (Guru)
Nobody knows Nobody knows, the insides and out y`all
when I close the door Nobody knows what`s behind the scenes
Nobody knows Nobody knows about the hardship and sorrow
They try to kill my dreams Nobody knows about the dreams.. bout the dreams..
[Guru]
Skippin the turnstyles, everyday lifestyle
Lookin at this world with mad anger cause it`s wild
People thinkin that I`m blowin up
But they don`t understand, the young man is growin up
Now who you think I should trust?
Better rely on self, no time for missin the bus
Fake people, phony characters
They begin to swarm, so I built up barriers
to block em out, but they still dwellin
Makes me wanna just start yellin
But I play it cool though, cause I`m no fool yo
See chumps`ll always try to break down your flow
Chorus: Shara Nelson and Guru
[Shara Nelson] (Guru)
Nobody knows Nobody knows, the insides and out y`all
what I`m goin through Nobody knows what`s behind the scenes
Nobody knows Nobody knows about the hardship and sorrow
what I feel inside Nobody knows about the dreams.. bout the dreams..
[Guru]
No time for misery, no time for empty wishin
`fridgerator`s bare, killin roaches in the kitchen
Just spent my last on a 40
to sip away my troubles, now it`s worse, cause I`m hungry
I check my man for advice
He lent me 20 dollars and we lounged and got nice
I told him nobody knows about the wack side
I feel like a slave gettin whipped on my backside
Chorus: Shara Nelson and Guru (repeat 2X)
[Shara Nelson] (Guru)
Nobody knows Nobody knows, the insides and out y`all
when I close the door Nobody knows what`s behind the scenes
Nobody knows Nobody knows about the hardship and sorrow
They try to kill my dreams Nobody knows about the dreams.. bout the dreams..
Chorus: Shara Nelson and Guru (repeat 2X)
[Shara Nelson] (Guru)
Nobody knows Nobody knows, the insides and out y`all
what I`m goin through Nobody knows what`s behind the scenes
Nobody knows Nobody knows about the hardship and sorrow
what I feel inside Nobody knows about the dreams.. bout the dreams..
