mark battles - the truth lyrics
i came to tell ’em the truth
and the truth hurts
she said “do what you’re supposed to, and never let ’em fold you”
momma was a thug, i was raised by a soldier
the purse on her shoulder got a pistol with no holster
said “let a n-gg- make a move and i’mma toast ’em”
ghost ’em, sleep tight ain’t never what it seem like
wanna know my life? a lot of death in some street fights
walking home at night they smoking meth by the streetlights
had to check some n-gg- cause they thought i was the weak type
see heights that they never thought i could reach
word games and flashcards so my daughters can speak
cause she ’bout to turn 5 and she can’t say a word
since she’s not autistic all these doctors getting on my nerves
consistent with my urge until i get what i deserve
killing all you nerds i’ll treat the rap game like the purge
tongue tricking while i drive, baby please don’t make me swerve
she only interested for benefits will i ever 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 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 witnessing a couple kings
bring my team to chase the dream i’m tryna do my thing
going 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
cause momma 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 h-ll, my babymomma called me cheap
cause i never let her see me down i kept it so discrete
bringing 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
