lyrics

"Run 'n Tell That"

(Chorus)

(Verse 1)
My nigga I don't speak that G shit because I know this secret
100 is when you keep it honest with who you be, bitch
These new cats don't peep this they're quit to repeat shit
They hear from their peers just rephrasing up the sequence
Nigga, you ain't popped clips, hit licks, seen bricks
Before Jeezy you thought traps caught mice with cheese bits
'Fore 50 you thought cracks were just in cement
Before a rap sheet, man, you wanted on the dean's list
Who would've foreseen this you'd make the switch
From Johnny B Good to Mr. Slurrin' Up-His English
On what purpose? For what purpose?
So it'd service your street cred' that can't stand on its legs?
You made this new life you lead created all in your head
You were poppin' lead since ten left many men dead
You believe in your pretend but you can't fool them
Real Gs you might offend then they'll come for ya head, yeah

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)
Real eyes realize real lies and you guys
Are looking untrustworthy when I spy
Oh my! Can't help but ask why anyone'd ever try
To act like wolves in our eyes when they're sheep in disguise
Makes nada sense in my mind why you'd think it would fly
Like caterpillars in cocoons who don't become butterflies
Man, be true to your inside and it'll be a smooth ride
Nigga, what you got to hide? In your flaws take pride
Can't be hard all the time, damnit... Cialis
Gs got a soft sides too, damnit... Mattress
Keep rap real don't be an actor or actress
Finding your voice takes talent, patience, and practice
And please don't try to balance an image with the real you
Just let the people feel you the moment they reveal you
You may believe your pretend you can't fool them
Real Gs you might offend then they'll come for ya head, Yeah

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
Ok, I got raps on raps on raps putting out my life on tracks
Autobiography on wax so everything I say is fact
Not a studio gangsta, video thug, fake blood, fake cuz
Hipster, skateboader, stoner, none of the above
I'm me, man, got my lane I don't need to change
I'll remain and maintain long as I do my thing
Fuck tryna gangbang CMG what I claim
Prison is the White Man's chess don't wanna play that game
I'm tryna get some nice chains, nice cribs, nice planes
Clothes with my brand names movie parts that I'll play
Word, nowadays, gangsta rappers don't get those things
You better off where you stay sellin ye', ok
If that's your M.O. if it ain't, homie, hell no
Don't put it in your demo you rep more red than Elmo
You wholesale the kilos you cookin' up the elbows
If so be ready to say hello to a halo
