letra de unknown - karl nova

somebody asked me
“why ain’t you famous?”
i told him i’m a secret agent
i’m underground way under the pavement
i’m low key out of sight like a bas-m-nt
that’s my choice man, that’s my arrangement
he looked at me like i was brain dead
but see fame is not what my aim is
besides that i am far from nameless
nah, i’ve got different goals
other reasons i flow from my soul
aiming to blow is a goal too low
i’m on a road that’s rough
but i stroll
even though my feet are cold
in a world cold, but i still chose
to walk on though at times i froze
i suppose that’s the way that it goes
i compose these lyrical scrolls
to expose my joys and woes
on my way, i’ve made friends and foes
i have clashed with those who oppose
i’ve fallen down but i rose
i’ve rocked more than a few shows
i’ve taken more than a few blows
had encounters that were close
but still i rep as i step
i keep crowds bouncing
with these mic checks
my vocal signature is priceless
i connect when i’m wrecking a set
with street poetry i affect
hearts and souls as the mic i bless
my lines have depth as i take a deep breath
and dive deep and release my stress
onward to my goal i press
not to impress but express
my full range and to do my best
see that to me is success
and progress part of the process
i dragged my feet and took slow steps
but now i’m here in the flesh
i’ve got you asking
what’s next?

unseen unheard unknown
i’m in my lane and in my zone (x4)

you don’t know me
and i don’t care

i’ve been told i am underrated
i’m underground and just patient
for a breakthrough i’ve waited
with myself i have debated
i’ve battled with self-hatred
by naysayers i’ve been slated
i thought i would never make it
dark thoughts i once contemplated
pain hit me i felt devastated
my main outlet is when creative
as an artist i felt frustrated
being celebrated is overrated
but appreciation i craved it
i thought my time was wasted
but i faced it my thoughts were basic
i could no more be so evasive
so my future i face dead on
you think i’m done, man you’re dead wrong
when under pressure i press on
i don’t press pause i press record
and capture even my flaws
being authentic is my cause
food for thought is my main course
served up straight from the main source
i’ve had mainstream dream
but the main thing is keeping the main thing
the main thing
we all ain’t aiming for the same thing
we’re changing, rearranging
patience
is what you need most
make sure you hold your dreams close
i inhale faith yes i breathe hope
this is real not just fancy quotes
whoa! it’s peak!
i was in a valley so deep
i’ve heard talk is cheap
but i’ve paid the price to now speak
sacrifice is backing my speech
my train of thought on tracks screech
this ain’t a sermon but they yell preach!
i don’t preach
i just emcee

unseen unheard unknown
i’m in my lane and in my zone (x4)

you don’t know me
and i don’t care
