[00:17.75]Wa******ng out cigarettes in the bathroom
[00:19.61]Should probably only give my opinion when I'm asked to
[00:22.72]I'm really good at telling the half truth but usually only when I have to
[00:26.48]The money doesn't work, the chain doesn't work
[00:31.61]Something broken in my brain, got me praying in the dirt
[00:34.26]Got me stranded in my bed like I'm laying in the hearse
[00:36.94]And the grass is always greener when you play on astroturf
[00:39.79]Wonder why my generation poppin' pills and poppin' percs
[00:42.43]And got some ****** and got some purp
[00:43.93]And got some bars and got some syurp
[00:45.36]And got some Jordan's on my feet, I went and matched them with my ******rt
[00:47.99]And I just Instagrammed them both to show you that I got them first
[00:50.88]Got a Louis duffel bag, I got my girl a purse
[00:53.70]I'm tryna find God through a purchase, I'm not tryna go to church
[00:56.57]Amen, Satan, told me not to serve, I only think about myself, I only think about my work
[01:00.04]I only think about my come-up, capitalism
[01:05.06]Look at where we come from, we are what we run from
[01:10.94]We are why we smoke some, so numb, so numb, so numb
[01:13.70]I'ma tell you what you need to know
[01:15.90]I'ma tell you what you need to hear
[01:19.07]Cause the truth would be too much
[01:21.55]Yeah the truth would be, yeah the truth would be
[01:24.65]I'ma tell you what you need to know
[01:28.11]I'ma tell you what you need to hear
[01:29.40]Cause the truth would be too much
[01:32.66]Yeah the truth would be, yeah the truth would be
[01:35.52]I cry when she smile with her eyes closed
[01:38.26]I'm already afraid of tight clothes
[01:40.82]I want all her best friends to be white folks
[01:44.63]I scratched out this line so many times, I can't forget it
[01:47.19]It's ****** up, I almost say it every time that I edit
[01:49.83]I swear rapping make it easy to lie
[01:52.29]But secrets don't make it easy to write
[01:54.46]I met the devil in Manhattan, quickly ended discussion
[01:58.08]I don't need a thing, he warned of repercussions
[02:01.12]But I know he come in all forms, that won't be his last visit
[02:03.77]Time is moving fast and I'm running with a pair of scissors
[02:06.66]Looking in the mirror like, "Damn that ain't my dad, is it?"
[02:09.50]He handed the torch but he ain't hold my hand in it
[02:12.24]I spent a pretty penny on microphones, many midis
[02:15.16]In-ears and CDs, I put the indie in Windy City
[02:17.76]Indian giver, Black father, White liar
[02:20.79]Right next to Yeezy like Mike Myers
[02:23.48]Stare at the cue cards, take out the juke parts
[02:25.79]Take out the God references, just leave the cool parts
[02:28.47]I remember opening for Ben, wasn't no liquor at the show
[02:31.54]And now the white girls call me ****** at my show
[02:34.39]I wish that I could open twice, sit down at the open mic
[02:37.47]Go back to the day before I became famous over night
[02:40.19]I wish that I could open twice, sit down at the open mic
[02:43.04]Go back to the day before I became famous over night
[02:45.85]I'ma tell you what you need to know
[02:48.81]I'ma tell you what you need to hear
[02:51.31]Cause the truth would be too much
[02:53.64]Yeah the truth would be, yeah the truth would be
[02:56.79]I'ma tell you what you need to know
[02:59.77]I'ma tell you what you need to hear
[03:02.46]Cause the truth would be too much
[03:04.39]Yeah the truth would be, yeah the truth would be...okay
[03:09.47]
