Lyrics for Truth Be Told
Guilty Simpson & Sample] Oh baby it's been so... Yeah Long... True A lotta rappers be lyin', man Scared to face the reality of truth Yeah, it's true Check me, check me, yo I didn't have the drive To put in time To keep hoop dreams alive I was busy with the women Thinkin' I was livin' All the while slippin' Losin' stride, uh I used to hustle, baggin' up weed But wasn't smart enough to separate my wants from needs I was smokin' with the crew for fun All the while losin' funds Burnin' all my tree I tried to be a thug Fightin' with mothafuckas and tearin' up the club I don't know what it was I needed that direction To deal with my aggression Instead of pullin' weapons Squeezin' slugs Yeah I was broke Rarely had dope We had to [?] smoke Sayin' what I wrote with hope I told myself, you want change, that's cool Remember change starts with you It's true... It's true Yeah, it's true It's true I didn't have the discipline to stick with it To be a football star, experimentin' with the bottle Ignorin' positive role models Plus my homeboy had a car, shit Yeah we was ghostin' Visitin' chicks, skippin' school At the time, I thought it was cool Shit, I had an older woman, didn't know nothin' She had another man, I was just a fool, fuck it I tried college Mama said "Son, you gotta do better" Kicked out first semester Beefin' with the locals over stuff That I didn't give a fuck about What they did, so we bumped it out Too much pride To let somebody's bullshit ride So I happily was [?] Yeah, I needed change but I had to tell myself You want change, you start with you It's true That's that realness Dice Game It's true Höre "Truth Be Told" auf Amazon Music Submit lyrics correction →
