Lil Kano - Why Do They Lie lyrics

Why... [Hook - 2x] Why, why do n***as lie Just to make, themselves look bigger When they're not, trying to sell me a dream Just to be on team, all a smoke screen [Billy Cook] Why do n***as claim to be, something that they're not They ain't ring in the industry, on me they do plot I don't need your legs to stand on, I got two of my own So impress calm yourself, I don't have to hide behind a song But I'm old and new in this school, sit back don't work with me Cause I done paid my dues, like a trill a** G Since you don't wanna be with us, we don't wanna be with you Keep your funny money n***a, and your weak a** crew [Hook - 2x] [Lil Kano] See back in the day, my mind was kinda flossed I was dealing with the wrong cards, thinking that I was a man but I was a kid with thoughts And because of seeing d**h with my own eyes, my homie got shot nine times Put up in the ground, for some sh** that he didn't do And a couple of years later I had to make a change, I was raised by my mom's cause my pop's never came through Till the age of twelve I was already hell, cause I ran with the crooks and the thugs Backstabbers money grabbers, fakers haters trying to show me love See the oldtimers trying to tell me, watch them people you running with So I signed a deal the worst one, fo' years of my life been down and sh** [Hook - 2x] [Billy Cook] See a old wise man told me, keep your enemies real close Get rid of oh yes n***as, cause they play down on you to be broke This music is thr story of your life, it's real and no joke Listen close son to what I say, so later on you can cope People say when you make it, don't forget about me But never once gave a dollar, for a c.d. in this industry And an artist got it real bad, like something in my eye So somebody please tell me, why these hating a** n***as lie [Hook - 2x] [Billy Cook] Have you ever been through, what I been through Living in the music game, motherf**ers trying to pimp you Never seem like you was working, or choking up on the block n***a hustle for the money, then n***a be getting shot Try to make it in this industry, enemies everywhere n***a talking bout they loving you and rocking, but they don't care See I'm living the dream I'm Billy Cook, I'm a star Everyone'll get down you on feet, bring the war f** that You would never pay attention from a thug Cause you got a lot of money, but you never have love Just because you in a situation, where you doing good Stock bonds f** that, we grind bust that Leave a n***a leaking from his a**, to his elbows Playing with a n***a life, n***a hell no Out to get it, if you with it then n***a feel it Sit back relax, and let the best of both worlds do it Kano and Cook [Hook] Why... - 7x
