Man I love this rap game

Mainly cuz its cool

To add a little spice to the life you've been through

Everyone exaggerates a tiny little bit

To make that shit sound more gangster than it really is

You cant appear weak man

We wanna hear street

Wanna hear you spit your thug over this here beat

Dont take it as sarcastic

I can't get enough

Im telling you

You can call my bluff

If it's not rough, then I really don't need it

I'm not even ashamed

I got too much reality thats filling up my brain

so sell me on that chronic, I'm addicted to the game

Suck it up like a cigarette, light it up

Its just like a cigarette, its something that I do

Once in awhile but between me and you

Its just like a cigarette Nobody's really fooled

I dont want the truth, I wanna feel fucking cool

Let me tell you something that I realized tonight

My hip hop radio is like marlboro lights

They're both selling stories and they sound about the same

Cigarettes say their safe, wrappers claim they really bang

We dont care if it's true when we lay the money down

We don't believe the words, we just love the way they sound

They're acting like we're idiots, They're lying to our face

Maybe we are idiots, we buy it anyway

I'm runnin out to get the next rapper's CD

Just suckin up the guns, drugs, and misogyny

The same way that I suck up all the stories

When I breathe that little bit of death supposedly cancer-free and

Everything they say's got the truth twisted up

But twisted up's what I want man, I can't get enough

Cuz even though we know it's all just a big bluff

We just light another up, what

We don't give a fuck

Its just like a cigarette, its something that I do

Once in awhile but between me and you

Its just like a cigarette Nobody's really fooled

I dont want the truth, I wanna feel fucking cool

Its just like a cigarette, its something that I do

Over and over but between me and you

Its just like a cigarette Nobody's really fooled

I dont want the truth, I wanna feel fucking cool

Listen to the words, Listen for awhile

Lip Service radio, dont touch the dial

If you're in the car

Turn up the track man

Give the whole neighborhood some second hand rap

Matter of fact

Listen to the words, Listen for awhile

Lip Service radio, dont touch the dial

If you're in the car

Turn up the track man

Give the whole neighborhood some second hand rap

Its just like a cigarette, its something that I do

Once in awhile but between me and you

Its just like a cigarette Nobody's really fooled

I dont want the truth, I wanna feel fucking cool

Its just like a cigarette, its something that I do

Over and over but between me and you

Its just like a cigarette Nobody's really fooled

I dont want the truth, I wanna feel fucking cool
