the truth - chief lyrics

[verse 1: chief]
i give praise and pray for longevity
my slate is now clean, my dreams are now destiny
and i see the broken heart of the enemy
he’s mad that i’m gone and he’s constantly testing me
and i ain’t gonna fall victim to the pressure
the calm before the storm for the years that i measure
it’s adversity the product of the struggle
and luckily i wasn’t brought up in a bubble
i ain’t seen it all or done it all, but witness the growth
this ain’t just rapping y’all; chances are i been there before
i can’t believe i’m still alive, until i rest in peace
i can’t imagine taking for granted the breath i breathe
waking up in the er, cuffed to the bed
it still took years to clean off the dust from my head
got a reason for my rhyme, get your wine and your bread
and i strive to change lives cause of something i said
this is the truth

[hook]
tell me what i gotta lie for?
there’s a lesson that i’m teaching if you’re seeking my verse
move for the spirit, move for the spirit
tell me what i gotta lie for?
there’s a lesson that i’m teaching if you’re seeking my verse
so, listen, what i shout out is true

[verse 2: chief]
i’m still hungry, still grinding with no work
but nowadays i’m driving with a chauffeur
it’s all diamonds, so i can’t have doubt
and really, i can’t wait to see how things pan out
i pay my dues like t-the since they p-ss me the plate
and i’m anointed so understand i have to be great
this is deliverance the p-ssion of faith
i hope you’re listening and witnessing the path you should take
and i ain’t preaching but i strolled down them alleys where the light don’t shine
both contributed and lived that hard life of crime
running around with a chip on my back, with a gun in my face
and i can give the pistol a clack
in a million little pieces but unlike james frey
this is the truth and i say it today
and i pray that when i speak i’m making a change
relieved of the grief free from all the hate and the pain
this is the truth

[hook]

[verse 3: chief]
i still deal with daily struggles and midnight blues
we all god’s seeds so really i’m just like you
i’d rather focus on the future, than live in the past
why waste my time with regrets, cause i ain’t getting them back
through conversations, i’ve helped to fill the hole in my soul
now i feel an obligation to speak to the globe
have you ever wondered why you been dealt those cards?
staring up at the stars like please help me god?
it’s a cold world homie and it’s out of our hands
boys and girls growing up with no moms and dad
i seek refuge in my thoughts and a heavenly light
pray my words, preach ’em hard and shed them some light
this ain’t just music, it’s a message and i’m talking to you
refuse to abuse and neglect what i was called here to do
so i choose my words carefully, i’m sharp with the tongue
with a heart full of love and new life in my lungs
this is the truth
