TruWerdz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ya'll already know who it is
Do I wanna be on stage, do I wanna be on flex
Do I wanna be on sway, do I wanna be on set
Those are things that cross my mind, a couple roads that intersect
But I don’t need to go that rout, just for me to get respect
I been breathing through the smoke, didn’t even need to vent
Never catch me in a slope, never stumblin a step
Can’t just do it for the love, cause that's not buying me a jet
That's not buying me house, that’s not gettin me a benz
Pay attention, this ain’t free, If you’re tryina get a check
It takes time, it takes money, so what else did you expect
I invest, I am blessed, I want the best and nothin less
I been feigning for the money like I’m hungry for success, yes
Obstacles, that’s probable, I’m destined to progress
If there’s problems then I solved em like I’m breezin through the test
People mad cause I go rilla like I’m beatin on my chest
I’m posturepedic that’s the reason they been sleeping on the best, Woe
I’m just trying to say what’s on my mind
I’m just trying to say what’s on my mind
I’m just trying to keep it real with you
I’m just trying to keep it real with you
I’m just trying to keep it real with you, uh
I’m just trying to say what’s on my mind
I’m just trying to say what’s on my mind
I’m just trying to keep it real with you
I’m just trying to keep it real with you
I’m just trying to keep it real with you, uh
Do I wanna answer lies, do I wanna punch a face
Do I wanna pay them mind, do I wanna catch a case
Those are things that cross my mind, a couple roads for me to take
But I don’t need to go that rout, so I just write to escape
Even though I’m always hungry, I got so much on my plate
I put in work with these bars, so I’m never out of shape
I've been sharp with these words, I'm always cuttin to the chase
I be shootin for the stars, I’m never runnin out of space
I hope y’all lookin up, im fly like I’m floatin with a cape
I feel like Superman, I conquered many troubles in my face
Many tried to horse around and tryta shit on my parade
I didn’t pay them mind, they can keep wishing i decay
I just mirror that, reflect it on the music I display
I’m gonna write till my pen runs out, I’m not afraid
To let my ink spill, now u know I’m destined to create
I’m just good at what I do, so there’s no room for debate, Woe
I’m just trying to say what’s on my mind
I’m just trying to say what’s on my mind
I’m just trying to keep it real with you
I’m just trying to keep it real with you
I’m just trying to keep it real with you, uh
I’m just trying to say what’s on my mind
I’m just trying to say what’s on my mind
I’m just trying to keep it real with you




I’m just trying to keep it real with you
I’m just trying to keep it real with you, uh
