[Verse] I'm trying to pick apart the conversation when They say I'm doing too much contemplating man But half the things that they they tell me they making up So if the truth's what you tell me, we'll make amends We'll make a plan, let's make a band And make them dance saying throw up your hands I'm going to France, I leave in the summer Where the new songs, they starting to wonder I've been on the come up, now it's crunch time All these rappers looking like lunch time A bunch lying, saying they getting signed Their stories' all fiction, read between the lines There ain't really nothing there, I know But that's just cause I've seen it all before That's why I never wanna be the same I try to bring change but still we chase fame [Chorus] We lie, we cry, and we strive For better lives to get high But then we losing friends They were all fake the fun finally ends And oh, but we can still try again And we can make it better The money's gone for now but Let's get it back so it lasts forever [Verse 2] To see the snakes gotta keep your gra** cut low When did everybody turn into a cut throat I'm a hit man, coming with some hit songs So they try and take shots when I'm trying to get on Got Teflon and I switch lanes Not a rookie youngin', listen I did things I k**ed shows with deadly flows And I've been going in just like field goals With the right kick and the right snare With a lady k**er, beautiful nightmare When the sun sets, cruising through the night air
bu*ton up, gold chain, chilling in my nike airs What up now, we still afloat When I was treading water almost lost hope If we make it through the summer then I know Nothing will stay the same and they gonna know the name [Chorus] We lie, we cry, and we strive For better lives to get high But then we losing friends They were all fake the fun finally ends And oh, but we can still try again And we can make it better The money's gone for now but Let's get it back so it lasts forever [Verse 3] I lost real money, I lost fake friends Staring at the city through these ray bans At the table throwing chips, bout 8 grand When it's only 20 dollars, make sense It's the denominations This young phenom is pacing Waiting on placement, it's not imitation It's not animation, they heard innovation I try to make time, make time But I might make mistakes again They might wanna raise the stakes again There's a lock on the game I'm breaking in I'm making it, just stay around They always ask how you making out You don't gotta ask, trust you'll see when it happens Movie life get the lights, the cameras, and action [Chorus] We lie, we cry, and we strive For better lives to get high But then we losing friends They were all fake the fun finally ends And oh, but we can still try again And we can make it better The money's gone for now but Let's get it back so it lasts forever
