Hit it

This is a story on how a truth lives

Been layin' laws since Adam and his rib

Around the same time, la made a debut

And got evicted from the garden right

beside the other two (hit it)

Since then, you can find truth on a hush

Steady on pace, never move in a rush

Usually on a roll, he's traveled by menace

Where you always find a truth tucked away like a gem

Even though it doesn't come to raise eyelids

Parents will push the truth away from the kids

Then make sure fairy tales stay intact

Instead of blowin' to smithereens when truth speaks facts

Truth just sticks to the script

Givin' us an earful so we can speak it from our lips

Some can't accept this as real talk

'Cause lies they disguised as the truth, some walk (hit it)

Before the truth puts on his pants to get dressed

A lie travels the whole world, makin' a mess

And if you sat down with a truth for a day

It will tell you how it lies

try to block what it say (hit it)

Some will bring 'em both into the same house

Tellin' truth to the sidepiece while lying to the spouse

And the needle in the haystack hits truth in the gut

That traps intuition which wakes the spouse up

The silent life of a truth (tell the truth)

The silent life of a truth (tell the truth, shh)

Truth lay covered in calm

Your messengers was screaming out loud like alarms

It take up residence in books

That usually have covers

that we shouldn't judge just off looks (hit it)

Buried in our minds, nestled in our hearts

Even in our soul, truth lives in every part

So when you out lying, you know how it goes

Truth lookin' at you like Pinocchio's nose (hit it)

Who dug a hole when they try to sound deep

Is a lying-ass nigga every time they speak

Youth and wisdom rarely get to meet

So a lie will dance in their eyes so sweet (hit it)

Most won't eat to put in for the proof

And those who expose met a shooter on the roof

And just let a little bit of time go by

And the truth of what happened will get modified (hit it)

Never held for ransom, they're always in a gag

By the one percent makin' sure the poor never has

Access to what truth sparks

So they complicit in the lies

keeping you in the dark (hit it)

But stay vigilant because truth will

Dismantle the mantle of lies we build

Knock it all down to the ground

And amongst the rubble of falseness, what will be found?

The silent life of a truth (tell the truth)

The silent life of a truth

The silent life of a truth (tell the truth)

The silent life of a truth (tell the truth)

The silent life of a truth (tell the truth)

The silent life of a truth (truth, hit it)

The silent life of a truth (hit it)

Shh

Excuse me?

Ayo

That's better

Ayo, Preem, hit the beat
