Tell No Lies

I’m looking at the trouble I’m facing

Facing the crowd while I’m staying on the stage

And the stages I go to in this game are outrageous

And the rules ain’t fair but still I play it

And that the race that I’m racing it’s amazing I ain’t fading

The sun turned me from a grape to a

And folks telling me I made it

Please, I ain’t made shit,

And ever since I got up in this game

Ive been saying to myself one day I’ma change it

Cause the planes in the heights got you chasin

Got you locked up in cages

American dream, one day they’ll gonna barely be sleeping

And the I tell fuck cause you can barely see it

Stay tuned and I’ma take you to see it

I know, someday I will find it all

But I won’t apologize, I won’t tell no lies

Don’t go, someday I’m gonna need you

But I won’t apologize oh no, tell no lies, oh no

Tell em, tell them this

Say that nothing worth having is easy

And nothing that I work hard for that they make me want more

I ain’t satisfied, even on the top floor

I’m addicted to living a life that I can’t afford

Working in the store with clothes that

Opening and closing it, open it get it over with it

And every morning my Shorty waking hung over which is funny

Cause this champagne lifestyle is sobering

I know to run a little late, I’m hyperventilating and waiting for the day that I penetrate

Like a virgin, working in let you in the, they don’t look you in the face

I’m broken straight, the walls have been closing in

So much that I ain’t nodes, a vixen that nodeses

I’m lying to my friends, I told them my phone is dead

Trying to hold my head, but know when I’m gonna win

I know, someday I will find it all

But I won’t apologize, I won’t tell no lies

Don’t go, someday I’m gonna need you

But I won’t apologize oh no, tell no lies, oh no

Another phone call to my mother looking for help

Only, I only think to myself

Manager paid my rent, my money been looking stealth

But on the outside it’s looking like something else

So I can’t back track to fall in line

And I’m waiting passed out for too much

And ain’t a cat can act all fine

Fuck the game, cats stags, some cats all lie

Labels wanna monopoly, and the rest that is shopping me

So they copy me, sold my intellectual property

I gotta breathe I’m worried I’m losing steam

I gotta sleep I’m worried I’ll lose the dream

So what’s the next move to success food

It’s something I’ll be taking to grave like my friend Sue

The clothes only make the man if they dress you

I’ll be captain if I’d let you

I know, someday I will find it all

But I won’t apologize, I won’t tell no lies

Don’t go, someday I’m gonna need you

But I won’t apologize oh no, tell no lies, oh no
