Truth Be Told

I can't get booked up by the fans before I get booked for a show
Everything happens for a reason, yeah that's just something you gotta know
You gotta show me you the one before I put you up in vogue
I don't need that shit around me, if you ain't bout a bag then go
Why the ones you think is solid always be the ones to fold
They say they never gon' let you down but for some ricks they get you rolled
For them racks they stack yo' back, man that shit been getting old
I got the biggest chance to go and get them bands but truth be told

They always seem to stab my back, too scared to do it to my face
Like a disease or something, my type of talent, that's a rare case
Under pressure I won't fall, no I wouldn't even dare to break
Be zoned out in my own world, thoughts racing, staring blank
Two words to really put me in perspective, damn great
I'm an artist with my words, just close your eyes I'll picture paint
You don't got the motivation like I do saying you can't
I'm gon' make that milli soon, I'ma be laughing to the bank, ha
I don't need no 30, fuck a perky I'm putting work in
$20 eighths, I'm like a soldier how I'm serving
I hate to pick and choose, both sides behind me tied not talking detergent
My phone DND so come and see me if it's really urgent
Ain't going back now, I'm back on track now, I'm chilling, earning
Driver fucked up we might crash in and out the lanes we be swerving
Not gon' lie, yeah, it'd be me if not give a fuck was a person
Been cooling, no bridges burning, my lessons already learned em'
Doing the dash we hit the alley, threw the gas over the fence
Aint' never followed all the rules more than a couple that I bent
Saving shit just like a goalie, to pass the ball with the assist
Never drank wock to clear my heart but all this gas dirty my piss
I witnessed the whole thing but when they ask, no I won't give a tip
Round the world I'm trying to see the bigger things, let's take a trip
I don't got nothing else to do so I get fried, yeah I be lit
Got the smoke up in my eye, the roast done goddamn burnt my lip

I can't get booked up by the fans before I get booked for a show
Everything happens for a reason, yeah that's just something you gotta know
You gotta show me you the one before I put you up in vogue
I don't need that shit around me, if you ain't bout a bag then go
Why the ones you think is solid always be the ones to fold
They say they never gon' let you down but for some ricks they get you rolled
For them racks they stack yo' back, man that shit been getting old
I got the biggest chance to go and get them bands but truth be told
