Something True - Intellectual

[Intro: Phil Ade talking]

Yeah...Yeah...Gotta Take my Jacket off for this one

Yeah...Like 5 AM in the morning. I just, I just got some shit I want to get off my chest

Yeah. Uh. Do this for Hip-Hop

I remember sitting in the TL buzzing off of 3 L's

Bragging about what girlfriend im bagging on the DL

Working at a retail, could never get a great job

Skin wasn't light enough, couldn't play the race card

It was niggers that were profiling so I'm whilin stealing car tv's

To keep me off of broke island

No violent nigga I ain't with the cocaine

But where I'm from it's play ball or a dope game

And only one made it out spitting propane

When he got signed is bout the time that my flow came

I swear I'm out of here, and I dont hear the rogaine

Being broke used to be funny, but now the joke's lame

Drop school, left mama house with no shame

Cause life's been a dick, like the pope's name

And ain't a thang guaranteed for blacks

Thats why we rap we get our money fast

Cause I've paid my dues, and I've got too much to lose

To be waiting on you to tell me something true

I've paid my dues, and I've got too much to lose

To be waiting on you to tell me something true

I swear there's nothing like sex, the 4 am text, asking if you trying to mess

To niggers that be the best, but can end up the worse

And pussy is a blessing that can bless you with a curse

That devil in a skirt could have a devil in her skirt

And my state one of the highest rates on earth

I searched to know why that shit is always in the hood

And why magic is the only nigga with it that's good...And

Fuck the doctor, they talk to you just enough

To keep you coming back till your pocket is fully sucked

I know niggers going poor just trying stay alive

So somebody pay your mind before we pay for it in crime

Word of my nine holders my girl is the ninth over from one

Aiming down your times over and done

I'm an asshole, I won't even settle for best

I want the crown, won't settle for less

Cause I've paid my dues, and I've got too much to lose

To be waiting on you to tell me something true

I've paid my dues, and I've got too much to lose

To be waiting on you to tell me something true

Tell me something true
