Can't Live a Lie
Yeah I'm from the nitty gritty we ain't ever had it easy
Hella problems in the city so we had to keep our heads down
We're just out here tryna get pounds
We're just out here tryna get by
In the jungle you can't fumble, gotta step right
Had to hustle through the struggle just to get mine
Plenty kids are losing lives cos they play with knives
I stay planted in the truth cos I can't live a lie
Stepping into purpose, got into alignment I'm fulfilling my assignment
Trusted the Divine and made the call in perfect timing
Connected to the Source, He gave me light and now I'm shining
Haters still conniving but I'm barely taking notice
Eyes wide open so I see through the commotion
I'm not in my bag, I barely landed bro, I'm loading
Wonder how I made it, ask the Lord because I'm chosen
I've been making money moves for me and mine
Can't be missing with the vision, gotta be precise
These times, I keep my energy protected
Now they say they want me but back then I was neglected
You can love it, you can hate it, I won't be affected
Sense the essence, feel my presence when I make an entrance
On my own when I had nothing, they weren't in attendance
Till I started seeing blessings, now they want remembrance
I came in fashionably late
Ever since a babe knew I was destined to be great
Raw to the core, got no space for the fakes
The Divine's by my side, got no space for a mate
Focused on progression, you can see it in my eyes
I know time flies, keep my eyes on the prize
No surprise that the snakes tried to size up my plate
Didn't share in my crumbs, can't partake in my cake
Cos I'm from the nitty gritty, we ain't ever had it easy
Hella problems in the city so we have to keep our heads down
We're just out here tryna get pounds
We're just out here tryna get by
In the jungle you can't fumble, gotta step right
Had to hustle through the struggle just to get mine
Plenty of kids are losing lives cos they play with knives
I stay planted in the truth cos I can't live a lie
From the nitty gritty, we ain't ever had it easy
Hella problems in the city so we have to keep our heads down
We're just out here tryna get pounds
We're just out here tryna get by
In the jungle you can't fumble, gotta step right
Had to hustle through the struggle just to get mine
Plenty of kids are losing lives cos they play with knives
I stay planted in the truth cos I can't live a lie
Hella problems in the city so we had to keep our heads down
We're just out here tryna get pounds
We're just out here tryna get by
In the jungle you can't fumble, gotta step right
Had to hustle through the struggle just to get mine
Plenty kids are losing lives cos they play with knives
I stay planted in the truth cos I can't live a lie
Stepping into purpose, got into alignment I'm fulfilling my assignment
Trusted the Divine and made the call in perfect timing
Connected to the Source, He gave me light and now I'm shining
Haters still conniving but I'm barely taking notice

Had to hustle through the struggle just to get mine
Plenty of kids are losing lives cos they play with knives
I stay planted in the truth cos I can't live a lie
