Truth Be Told - Horrorshow

Said I’m a night owl, fly above the city after lights out

'Cause my thoughts are clearest when the noise dies down

So while you sleep I’m up late workin' on my escape plan

So take my hand 'cause we leavin' right now

And you can march with me or you can move aside

Whether you a true droogie or you just cruisin' by

Forget the do or die, just loosen your suit and tie

They too concerned with being cool, I’m concerned with losin' mine

Hear the stomach rumble, it’s running on empty

But still I break bread with those who trespass against me

'Cause even angels tell lies on their bad days

Tryna navigate a world that’s man made

But the aforementioned characters who inhabit my shoulder blades

Are both claimin' they know the way, fuckin' with my pokerface

But I’m feelin' like a pimp so I’m gonna brush 'em off

Look 'em in the eyes when I tell 'em straight, «Welcome overstayed»

«Trust be told»

«Trust be told»

«Trust be told»

Let no man be afraid to speak his part

But let it come from the heart and the soul

An alibi’s just a lie in the absence of proof

Above all, let the truth be told

Same crews, same songs, but there’s been a name change

From today on you can call me Mr Gameface

'Cause I got my game face on

Me and Adit came back to give The Grey Space a paint job

And we ain’t cut from the same cloth

My hat perched on a double crown 'cause I’m twice the king

Steady tryna build a kingdom out of rhythm and rhyme

We on your porch bangin' on your front door till you invite us in

Truth be told I’m a stoned out scatterbrain

But I never smoked a cigarette

'Cause if I did then I’d probably smoke a pack a day

And that’s a lot to pay for a little bit of death

See, truth be told I’m just doin' my best

But regardless, I’ma stick to my guns

So listen up while I get this stuff off of my chest

'Cause honestly, yo, my conscious weighs a tonne

«Trust be told»

«Trust be told»

«Trust be told»

Let no man be afraid to speak his part

But let it come from the heart and the soul

An alibi’s just a lie in the absence of proof

Above all, let the truth be told

So now we move like comets round this planet of rock

Collidin' off one another till we finally stop

Sign of the times, if motherfuckers put they mind in they rhymes

Then they might find that they could write some like mine

Or, better yet, like yours

'Cause there ain’t nothing stopping you from pennin' your thoughts

You see, kids get bored, kids kill time

So as long as there’s kids on this planet, kids will rhyme

So tell me how you gonna earn your stripes

'Cause I’m tryna get mine with just some words and a mic

And we on target, songs sparkin' chain reactions

Across the neighbourhood like the sound of dogs barking

And I send these words to be there with you when I can’t

In your pocket on your iPod, wherever you are

Let the truth be told up in your ear

From around the corner to around the globe in both hemispheres

«Trust be told»

«Trust be told»

«Trust be told»
