Dyme-A-Duzin - Why Lie? lyrics

[Verse 1] I got the music in my mind, hit the booth and its alive Search the truth and ye shall find That the flows been the coldest since 06 and you ain't know sh** They boasting like the best but thats just marketing/promotion Dope, money got them thinking you the dopest till they hear that Hip Hope sh** My hits potent, spitters in my clique focused while these boy band n***as Chris Stoke'in Thats just gross, my wrist golden Sewed seams over seeds I'm sewing See the silk when I leave it open Suit swa*k still reefer blowing I used to chief on Sunday morning, think the Deacon noticed Dosing tryna keep composure, street a leave you decomposing sh**, I'd rather be composing, overseas performing The preacher told him write scripture with your penmanship Pulled out the pen while thinking f** arithmetic and spit the real sh** my n***a [Chorus] Why Lie? When I'm soaring through the sky Yeah, we starved but the hungriest survive My story is divine, this is God's gift, I hardly even try Now these lines switch our water into wine Like n***a, why lie? When I'm soaring through the sky Yeah, we starved but the hungriest survive My story is divine, this is God's gift, I hardly even try Now these lines switch our water into wine [Verse 2] In reality the industry ain't what it seems It ain't about your record label its about your team And now-a-days it ain't what you write its about the hype And outsiders say they love you but they bout the cream Some things I've seen and I share it with my Kings & Queens Keep it in the fam, cause these vultures focused on feeding theirs Know that and be prepared, no money being scared If you ain't have no intentions to stay, why you even here? Raised on the east side, all I would see is grind Mama made church hats and Daddy sold bean pies Made me a mixtape, serving CD's, T's & flyers Your admired if you helped me reach these highs Shout out to my step pops, supplying equipment Micky, Shnider and Fritz, and Preedomworld for the fire & mixes Send love to the home for my grandma Lost both of her legs but still heres something to dance to
