Brooklyn Prince - Truth In My Lies lyrics

(Verse 1): Jay Twisted House phone, the phone line cut off way between in mine Ain't gettin no calls, conserve electricity, the bills too damn high Walking the sidewalk of life and d**h, it's a thin line But achievement is a lie, failure only corresponds to your mind What's the reason for the world we live on? Wonder why Times getting harder and I only feel like I'm wasting space Taking it up, it's like I'm new shoes without no lace My preference is out of time, I must be out of my mind If humans is my race, I must be a disgrace to my own kind Call it saving grace, retitle it saving what's mine I've come too far to hear these spoiled brats whine They too busy getting breastfed, with the meth heads Who don't want to get out of bed There's a reason I can't sleep, too much to think about Would've cried tears to paint myself another route But when the truth and the lies look the same What is there really to doubt? (Chorus): Jay Twisted Tired of being judged like a hit and miss Hell, I've been more deep writing a diss I've seen demons in my sleep too many times More than sometimes I've heard them rhyme I wish my eyes defied the rise So you can see the truth inside my lies (x2) (Verse 2): Jay Twisted Cellphone, robbed, departed, and eventually parted Six boys approach you which one you gonna hit first Just give in, before you dish in what you get for worth Could've lost way more than 5 bucks and a pizza slice But I understand the cause, my life was on the line They weren't that nice, hell, I just need advice On how to lead this life, on how to put down this mic How do I put it down when it isn't visible to anyone around? But now, it seems like my career is in the lost and found Ain't nothing to say really, I just can't wait till it gets better Cuz I've survived so far, no matter what the weather Living in the meanest city, with the greatest example New York, this the real thing, no halfway samples Too far in this to stop now, so I won't stop Not that I can't, but I won't, cuz it's something Jordan won't condone Michael wouldn't approve, something Makaveli wouldn't choose And I'm happy I've been able to paint y'all my muse Listen up... I've been part of a small picture and they photoshopped me out I've been at the biggest peak and they all pushed me down I've come around played with the flu, but it took me around My back been on the line, but I'm just okay now The proof is in the pudding The truth is in the lies I just hope when I really need it, the time won't fly (Chorus): Jay Twisted Tired of being judged like a hit and miss Hell, I've been more deep writing a diss I've seen demons in my sleep too many times More than sometimes I've heard them rhyme I wish my eyes defied the rise So you can see the truth inside my lies (x2)
