Download Lagu Mark Battles - The Truth

Lirik The Truth

I came to tell 'em the truth
And the truth hurts
()
She said 'do what you're supposed to, and neva let em fold you'
Mama was a thug, I was raised by a soldier
The purse on her shoulder got a pistol with no holster
Said 'let a nigga make a move and I'mma toast em'
Ghost em, sleep tight ain't neva what it seem like
Wanna know my life? A lot of death in some street fights
Walkin' home at night they smokin' meth by the streetlights
Had to check some nigga cuz they thought I was the weak type
See heights that they neva thought I could reach
Word games and flashcards so my daughters can speak
Cuz she about to turn five and she can't say a word
Since she's not autistic all these doctors gettin' on my nerves
Consistent with my urge until I get what I deserve
Killin' all you nerds I'll treat the rap game like the purge
Tongue trickin' while I drive, baby please don't make me swerve
She only interested for benefits will I eva learn?

I came to tell em the truth
And the truth hurts
I'm here to tell you the truth
I just hope it works

I grew up with screw ups but I ain't really do much
Hit the park and see who wanna battle for a few bucks
Anybody want it, they can get it, come get chewed up
Don't make me have to pull your card and bag you like a school lunch
Who us, what you mean? You witnessin' a couple kings
Bring my team to chase the dream I'm trying to do my thing
Goin' hard while you sleep as a man I'm complete
So at times I take it deep, before I hit the booth I tend to pray for every beat
Cuz mama always said bless your food before you eat
And I'mma feast, yeah I'mma feast
Struggle can make you weak I used to cry myself to sleep
Really was broke as hell, my baby mama called me creep
Cuz I neva let 'er see me down I kept it so discrete
Bringin' hope to the hopeless, repairs for the broken
Aware that I was chosen, I swear I'll stay focused
I came to tell em the truth
And the truth hurts
I'm here to tell you the truth
I just hope it works
I came to tell em the truth
And the truth hurts
I'm here to tell you the truth
I just hope it works
