The Truth
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.
They don't even know my roots (my roots)
Lemme tell you the truth (truth)
Fed up of all the twisted lies that follow my path I'm locked in ties
Man I just wanna break loose (break loose)
Been kept in a box since youth
You all haven't seen my juice
Ima rise to the top like zeus
Cause they don't even know my roots
Me, people be sleeping on me
Like there is no shadow to leave
No, the odds aren't favouring me
Various listeners wishing I flee but look
I'm gonna leave you meek
I'll be the drake you watch every week
Reason to hate you seek
Wasting you lifeclock just for a moment of peace but see
I've never been liked
Judge too quick they wanna pick fights
Full of insight I be working these nights
Even delta struggle stopping me fly
Breaking off people like a kit kat
I admit that yeah I sit back
In the range doing 80 I hit that
Delete the snakes, submit that
Pull up to a venue with a mac though
I book that out no cap bro
These haters have no backbone
Still watching my vids on their Jack jones
Man I've been stuck in a shadow
I'm caught in a trap, no lasso
All my life I've gone unnoticed
It feels like I'm covered in camo
These words come straight from the heart that's facts
I be dodging these snakes in the grass (grass)
Man I'm gonna fly like darts no cap
Can't shatter these dreams like glass (glass)
Deji I come top class (yeah)
I'm done with all the past (yeah)
One thing you better not sleep or blink
These dubs come way too fast (yeah)
Cause they watch my life and review it
They look for flaws and pursue it
I don't even wanna sound cocky
But half of these guys can't do it
Done YouTube. Boxing, music
Can't be stuck in a box no cubic
They all wanna call me dumb
But only my money is stupid (why?)
Cause I'm at it again these problems in life
Only cost what I spend (can't forget)
I do not pretend cause they're close to your side
Don't make them a friend
Lemme tell you one thing (one thing)
Don't be a puppet on string (string)
Watch out for the trojan horse
The best get destroyed from within
No need to sell lies, not a poser
Don't do it for the bread, no grocer
The end comes closer and closer
So I need this weight off my soldier
I be risking it all like poker
Stop taking me for a joker
Time for a new hand, it's closure
Cause they don't even know my roots (roots)
Lemme tell you the truth
Fed up of all the twisted lies that follow my path I'm locked in ties
Man I just wanna break loose
Been kept in a box since youth
You all haven't seen my juice
Ima rise to the top like zeus
Cause they don't even know my roots
