The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I just gotta be real, never been on no fake shit

Say you wanting the truth, but I hope you can take it

Lot of niggas had doubts, said I wasn't gonna make it

If I were to rap the same shit

They probably would've been on my dick

And I probably would've been on freshman list

Bet wouldn't bench this

R&b niggas would've been missed

Bitch niggas wouldn't understand this

Real talk nigga, couldn't plan this

Young nigga coming for the top spot

Do know some niggas back home

That'll kill tryna get what I got

Still got some homies on the block, I'm just being honest

Niggas tryna see me shot, I'm just being honest

I know I got some hoes high, I'm just being honest

But a lame nigga I am not, I'm just being honest

Name another nigga hot, I'm just being honest

More hoes than I got, I'm just being honest

Treat bad bitches like thots, I'm just being honest

Ain't never give 'em my heart, I'm just being honest

(Gotta tell the truth)

I keep my day one niggas with me true

And we ain't never going back to what we used to do

You know I can't lie to you so I had to tell the truth

I'm just being honest

(Gotta tell the truth)

I keep my day one niggas with me true

And we ain't never going back to what we used to do

You know I can't lie to you so I had to tell the truth

I'm just being honest

Since I'm being honest, I've been way too modest

But lately I've been stressing, I've been tryna hide it

They be all up in my business, can't do shit in private

And I hear all the shit they say, but still I'm silent

(To tell the truth)

I know ya, lame niggas always hating

Probably took the bitch they dating

She choosing on a nigga, just face it

Really don't like this fame shit

Hate what the music came wit

And my brother telling me he ain't shit

Won't be shit and he's kept it

That's fucked up to be so stuck on that street shit

When they took mel

We both said that we'd get right

It's been three years and I can't tell

Know there's an outcome

He laid down or be in jail

Pray he keep his head up

Cause lord knows we've been through hell

Truthfully, I'm cutting people off

Who can't do shit for me

Cause I've made mistakes of helping people

Who just take from me

Seen me tryna get it

So they plotting on me faithfully

I know if I lost it all tomorrow

They won't stay with me

Most niggas be flexin'

Like they keeping it so real

Ain't getting no bad bitch

These hoes really ain't boss chicks

Never fall for that game shit

Hoes know that I peep that

So sick of these rap niggas

Who talk crack but they don't trap

So done with these gold-diggers

Who fuck just so they get racks

Nobody's got ambition

Wish I had a way to fix that

My niece is getting older

Gotta lot up on my shoulders

No muscle, no hustle, everything's a struggle

(Gotta tell the truth)

I keep my day one niggas with me true

And we ain't never going back to what we used to do

You know I can't lie to you so I had to tell the truth

I'm just being honest

I keep my day one niggas with me true

And we ain't never going back to what we used to do

You know I can't lie to you so I had to tell the truth

I'm just being honest

Niggas be talking about what they gonna do

But when they press circle on 2k

Only time they shoot

And I'm out with the same face it

None my niggas know

My lil' bro be yelling bruh, bruh

My lil' nigga too

Ain't got shit to prove but got a lot to lose

Cause when it come to light

Sometimes I get confused

Can't even call fly

Damn I miss you dude

It's hard to see the same shit

When you got different views

But if that shit ain't working

Then make different moves

My bezel say I'm winning

Ain't got time to lose

And I heard homie be snitching, I can't fuck with dude

And if you fuck with homie, we can't fuck with you

Look, cause over here we don't play both sides

You fuck with us, you fuck with us, period, no talking (none)

And I'mma tell you like a nigga told me

Whatever happens in the streets stay in the streets, yeah

Name another nigga hot, I'm just being honest

More hoes than I got, I'm just being honest

Treat bad bitches like thots, I'm just being honest

Will never give 'em my heart, that's just being honest

(I tell the truth)
