[00:00.182][Intro] |
|
[00:07.046] |
My name's Alfonso |
[00:08.178][Chorus] |
|
[00:08.425] |
If I can't be who I am with myself in the mirror |
[00:13.008] |
Lie to the world but can't lie to yourself when it clear up |
[00:17.896] |
Gotta be real to yourself in the end, wit' yourself in the end |
[00:22.046] |
Gotta be real wit' yourself in the end, get selfish again |
[00:26.614][Verse 1: RJMrLA] |
|
[00:28.030] |
You can lie to everybody but your self-image |
[00:30.875] |
In crowd got you wallowing in self-pity |
[00:33.126] |
Pinned down, boxed in like a jail visit |
[00:35.497] |
Buying up designer drugs, get a belt with it |
[00:37.819] |
To hell with it, tell 'em open up the flood gates |
[00:40.056] |
All them lies media feeding us, need a buffet |
[00:42.473] |
All this genocide, they hiding it with a court date |
[00:44.338] |
Kill a nigga, lock a nigga and abort the babies |
[00:47.359] |
Man, I gotta be real wit' myself |
[00:49.610] |
Man, them bottles and them pills never help |
[00:51.900] |
Put the nozzle on the drill, give 'em hell |
[00:54.248] |
I decided, gotta kill to prevail |
[00:56.437] |
Stop that, you run from the truth like it's combat (Stop!) |
[00:59.686] |
You reachin' your heights off of contact (Hey) |
[01:02.117] |
Bitch, I'm me, all my ice just define that |
[01:04.147][Chorus] |
|
[01:04.820] |
If I can't be who I am with myself in the mirror |
[01:09.573] |
Lie to the world but can't lie to yourself when it clear up |
[01:14.162] |
Gotta be real to yourself in the end, wit' yourself in the end |
[01:18.529] |
Gotta be real wit' yourself in the end, get selfish again |
[01:22.741][Verse 2: Mozzy] |
|
[01:24.987] |
Ay, G-O-D, I never lie |
[01:27.261] |
I been on my grind, I been taking care of mines |
[01:29.592] |
Supported brother when I saw him on the rise |
[01:31.635] |
Niggas hated when I made it though, I saw it in his eyes |
[01:34.527] |
What's the hate for? Tell a youngin "Take notes" |
[01:36.649] |
All my lil' niggas got a chain when they bame home |
[01:39.035] |
That's from all them overnighters in the same clothes |
[01:41.303] |
Gotta discipline yourself and learn to play broke |
[01:43.707] |
I ain't up at ten million, but I'm straight, though |
[01:45.956] |
'Nother 10K retainer for the case closed |
[01:48.464] |
My dog lost a trial but he came close |
[01:50.633] |
Contemplated suicide and he came close |
[01:53.052] |
I wanna see my people but I can't, though |
[01:55.185] |
They'll **** around, send the task wearing plain clothes |
[01:57.875] |
Call you Theodore if you aim low |
[01:59.885] |
Forever I remain focused |
[02:01.303][Chorus] |
|
[02:01.637] |
If I can't be who I am with myself in the mirror |
[02:05.987] |
Lie to the world but can't lie to yourself when it clear up |
[02:10.492] |
Gotta be real to yourself in the end, wit' yourself in the end |
[02:14.834] |
Gotta be real wit' yourself in the end, get selfish again |
