True Intentions

(Jack is producing bangers)

I can see their true intentions, what they really want from me
Used to think a lot about just who I really wanna be (Who I really wanna be)
Told you love and loyalty is what I really wanna see
I stay true to all the real ones 'cause they're really all I need (Really all I need)
And if I ever go down, you know I'll bounce back (Yeah)
I'm just making sure that all of my accounts fat (Making sure I get that)
It's 'gon take a lot of time for me to count that
In my studio is where the hottest sounds at, yeah

Yeah
If you're bullshitting, then from a mile away I can smell you (Yeah)
Nothing left to say, I got nothing left to tell
I'm up late at night, awake and lost in deep thought
Give a fuck 'bout what you think or if I'll be mocked (I don't)
I've been busy on my grind and stacking C-notes
I've been up and I've been down 'cause life a seesaw

And lately, I ain't been around
Had to get away 'cause I can't do this anymore, anymore, no
And you know what's going down
I'm about to do some shit that you ain't ready for, ready for, no
And lately, I ain't been around
Had to get away 'cause I can't do this anymore, anymore, no
And you know what's going down
I'm about to do some shit that you ain't ready for, ready for, no

Yeah
You can call me Post Malone the way I post up (Yeah)
Know some people that just really need to grow up
If I'm swinging for the fences, it's a home run (Uh huh)
I knock it out the park just like I'm Sammy Sosa
And I had to disappear 'cause a lot of people fake
Truth comes out eventually, don't care how long it really takes
I've been out here and I'm really giving no fucks (No, no)
So don't call me with your hand out when I blow up (Uh uh)
All the people 'round me know it's 'bout to go up (Yeah, yeah)
People on the outside looking in will think it's so strange
I used to be getting high and drinking, doing cocaine (Oh, whoa)
Now I've come too far to ever go back to my old ways (No)
I had to come to the realization just how precious time is (I did)
'Cause when it starts to slip away, that's when you really start to get reminded (You do)
I was lost, I had to get inspired (Yeah)
But inspiration is so fleeting, there's no guarantee you'll ever find it

And lately, I ain't been around (Nope)
Had to get away 'cause I can't do this anymore, anymore, no (Nah, nah, nah)
And you know what's going down (And you know)
I'm about to do some shit that you ain't ready for, ready for, no (That you ain't ready for)
And lately, I ain't been around
Had to get away 'cause I can't do this anymore, anymore, no (Ho, oh)
And you know what's going down
I'm about to do some shit that you ain't ready for, ready for, no
(That you ain't ready for)
(Hey)
