If I'm Being Honest

J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League

If I'm being honest
I ain't dead or in jail, I ain't tripping, so I know that this a win
Acting like I ain't that nigga, so we all just gon' pretend?
Flipping weight to real estate, I'm corporate thugging 'til the end
If I'm being honest
I done came a long way from Lumpkin Road, sleeping on my granny couch
Thousand dollars in my pcoket, in my sock a quarter ounce
Now I got me three accountants just to watch all my accounts
If I'm being honest
You know these bitches see a real nigga out, and they ready to risk it all
Don't mind me, I'm focused, I'm just trying not to fall
I can see the goal line, I ain't tryna drop the ball
If I'm being honest
They tryna make it 'bout them, but a nigga really did it on his own
Could've got a life sentence just for talking on the phone
You can tell them niggas, love me or leave me alone

Headed to the other side, yeah, that's where the plug stay
Hungry than a bitch, I might just stop by the Subway
Lie about two dollars, yeah, y'all niggas must be high
Yeah, y'all must be smoking crack 'cause I ain't that type of guy

If I'm being honest
I was in the Mac when Sedi showed me how to turn a two into a four
At the microwave, nigga putting on a show
That's a hundred and twelve Os like the knobs on the door
If I'm being honest
I been praying to my mama 'cause I need her and miss her every day
So I'ma go hard 'cause there ain't no other way
Wish we could talk now 'cause there's way too much to say
If I'm being honest
I'm really sick of these niggas on the Internet talking like some hoes
If I ain't answer back, 'cause I'm busy doing shows
It's hard but it's fair, quit crying, wipe your nose
If I'm being honest
I'm the first nigga from my hood that ever went and cashed out a Lamb'
Arm and Hammer in the fridge, nigga, right next to the ham
Got some niggas in the fed that'll vouch for every gram

Headed to the other side, yeah, that's where the plug stay
Hungry than a bitch, I might just stop by the Subway
Lie about two dollars, yeah, y'all niggas must be high
Yeah, y'all must be smoking crack 'cause I ain't that type of guy
