Truth Is a Lie

From the EP In the Dark by Scottychams

Verse 1

Yo back in the Loo

I wouldn't think to have it

But in the Shwa

Weapons be a habit

Like Slim

Call me the rabbit

Dopey all day

Yeah, I’m Illmatic

Dramatic

While I’m at it

Ecstatic

Got to dedicate

Bowl to decimate

And I’m working

Grinding

Trying to hella vape

Waiting on a tape

Hit and celebrate

Hey

I thought I'd cut the habit

And I’m smoking all day

Good green

We laughing

Whip out the Kraken

Mucking it we cracking

Off for a bit

Now I'm back in

Messed up

No time to think

I’m always on

Some kind of thing

The truth is

All I try to bring

But

Chorus

The truth is a lie

Yo, that's why I'm always high

Yo, that's why I'm always high

Right?

I mean, that why you always sigh

I mean, that why you always sigh

I mean, that why you always sigh

Right?

Verse 2

Predict the future

Coincidence

Regardless of this precedence

So tranced

Take a chance

Complex

Advanced

Free from your mind

Open up your eyes

It's about time

Question everything

Even my rhymes

When you confide

In the facts worldwide

You truly know nothing

Now you ask why

Well, I want to know

How the hell you get by

Just remember

That the truth is a lie

Just a blink in time

If we die

Mean we’ve all seen the signs

We all seem alive

Greedy taking bribes

Money run our lives

Think that we decide

When really

Everyone’s a spy

Yeah, I’m

Trying to keep it chill

My rap flows

Tend to keep me ill

Weeks go by

Without a kill

I’m waiting on

Jex still

Hexed feel

Got no meals

Why

Fall asleep sober

High

Good vibes all over

Take a shot

With caffeine holdup

Jager bombs

Boom

Blowing up

Blasting tunes

We do

Shrooms at noon

Munchies too

Doing

What I got to do

Toke

Before I'm eating food

Please don't

Kill my mood

Dude

Yeah

Don’t kill it

Just remember, yo

Chorus

The truth is a lie

Yo, that's why I'm always high

Yo, that's why I'm always high

Right?

I mean, that why you always sigh

I mean, that why you always sigh

I mean, that why you always sigh

Right?

Verse 3

Close-minded

When you’re done

Rewind it

No one wants to see

Rather talk a lot of nothing

With me

I want to talk something

So feel free

Ego separates them

Making people hate them

Hate themselves

And everyone else

Even when I tell em

They treat it like venom

You can still wake up

Open up your eyes

And at least before you die

You can say goodbye

Let em know you tried

It’s not what you know

How you got

How you get it

I’ve already said it

Life is just lesson

Why y’all stressing

Take it as blessing

Ain't messing

Yo for real

You going to keep learning

‘Til you know deal

Feel?

Just remember, yo

Yo

Chorus

The truth is a lie

Yo, that's why I'm always high

Yo, that's why I'm always high

Right?

I mean, that why you always sigh

I mean, that why you always sigh

I mean, that why you always sigh

Right?

Chorus

The truth is a lie

Yo, that's why I'm always high

Yo, that's why I'm always high

Right?

I mean, that why you always sigh

I mean, that why you always sigh

I mean, that why you always sigh

Right?

Verse 4

Lately I been going ham

Nah more like

Going Cham

Got to go

Roll spliffs

I prefer a bong hit

Bucket sip

Vaporizer chill shit

Pack it on, fill it

Either way

I still got an ounce

In the Shwa

I’m ready to pounce

Cops show up then its

Time to bounce

I’ve been doing more drugs

Than I can count, yeah

That’s the general take

People being fake

Cause they ain’t awake

Coming in last

Whiplash

I flip tracks,

Skip pats

Y’all know

Cause I hit that

Wanna split that?
