Testo Not Lying - Hunxho
Testo della canzone Not Lying (Hunxho), tratta dall'album Thank God
Huh
Going to jail helped me find patience with myself
Ain't feel like waitin' on myself
Or nobody else
Don't need nobody help
Can't put my pride to the side
Do it all myself
All myself
All myself
After all that shit, they killed him
Don't know how I'm still livin'
I pray the Lord forgive me, but I'm like God inside these trenches
God
So how you get money but still let all of your young niggas rob?
Let all of your young niggas rob?
Yeah
'Cause I can't say that I made it
I ain't there
Do they hate me?
Should I care?
'Cause they don't check on me
Ain't worried about nobody but theyself are
And I done failed a hundred times but never fell off
And lately, I been wearin' condoms, but I'm still raw, dog
Can't ever get stuck in the middle, I know I'm a winner
Know I'm a winner
Shooter be drivin' in all of my cars, if any play they'll end 'em
They'll end 'em
I don't like talkin' about beefin' on songs
But all of my opps turned to spinners
Turned to spinners
Know I done been in that jam, shit
Know how to get out that blender, yeah
I put everything on Brenda, set
No, I ain't just a pretender, yeah
They can have 100 hands, shit
I know they still wouldn't lend them
If you know me, you know I'm a dog, shit
You know I belong in a kennel
If you know me, you know all my cars bought
Ain't none of these bitches a rental
Whoa, wait
I wake up and get more pay
Can't believe that I'm so paid
Most of these bitches I'm fuckin' go both ways
Now I made me a million in four days
You live by the gun, then you die by the gun
I don't see me dyin' from old age
I get 100 a show
I used to rob for 4k, yeah, yeah
Yeah
I been going hard, can't say I'm not tryin'
I'm not tryin'
She jump when I say it's over, she not Zion
She not Zion
Made it up out of that jungle, and nigga, I'm not lyin'
Nigga, I'm not lyin', oh
I tried to come into this world feet first
So God saved my life before it even started
I was blessed with the guidance of my father's wisdom
And the love of an understanding mother's heart
I was taught the value of respect for self and
Others in a world where this has become luxury
All the things that I complained I didn't have
I know now that was really more than enough for me
Some kids don't have food in they bellies, clothes
On they backs, or a bed to even sleep at night
Often we don't see the things we should be thankful for
Until we suffer through enough to make us see the light
For a people to be displaced and enslaved, robbed of their culture
God, and stripped of their identity, and after generations gone by
Forced to live amongst and be dependent on the enemy, put into
Situations where survival is through hard choices
And then judged as if they ever had an equal chance
Brutalized by the ones that should protect us, and they
Say that our society is civilized and more advanced
The fact that I can send this message to you now proves
Without a doubt that miracles can still happen for us
We gonna overcome the obstacles we're facing now
No matter what the adversary does, he cannot destroy us
All the murders and the drugs and the prison
Ever has done or will do is waste our lives
We will transcend this darkness, and not
Only just survive, but I guarantee we rise
Above the putrid stench of death and evil deeds
Above the hatred and not caring for each other's needs
We can change it all, starting with our hearts and minds
Because as long as we draw breath, we still got time
Thank God
