White Lies Lyrics by Retep

White Lies

2017

White lies in the lime light
Time flies when it shines bright
My wings are money in a dimes sight
My sky lies in my minds eye
Looking out at a fine night
No pyramid in my skyline
No neon green in my high lights
My stars aligned at the right time
Telescopes on my hindsight
Got rule books on my guidelines
Learn rocket science in my scyfi
Toy with nasa like eye spy
You got no help verse einstien
Im like him but with five minds
Your the titanic with hightide
Within the bermuda triangle of my life
Im dead to yall that ship sailed
The ocean stops when I inhale
Blind to greed but money talks
So I hear sign language and spit braile
People talking like they know me
People talking like we homies
But im responding like im lonely
So people talking like the old me
People just hate to change
They so focused to make it rain
With clouded thoughts engraved in pain
Blood brothers dont say my name in vein
Respect is earned can't change that game
I guess I did when you gave the reigns
Or maybe its women when the labor came
Or maybe it was slaves when they paid with chains
History written by the white man
Present day living in the right scam
Tommorrow in the sorrow of the fight plan
Destiny manifested into a nightmare
With no religion im dream chasing
With no revision im speed racing
With no remission can't be patient
With no sedition yall need saving
Im still shook people love trump
White lies but hes above none
A cardinal sin looks down to judge one
A feather drops and that becomes us
Stand up with the motivation
To fight for those who have no relation
Be weary of snakes who grow evasive
If rap needs me this my ode to save it
I just wanna live in my own world
With no power junkies watching thrones twirl
Be real catching feelings for a home girl
Who'd trade a thousand diamonds for a lone pearl
Im further than the diamond in the rough
The coal within your stocking cuz the shining ain't enough
Never under pressure till im climbing up the dust
Or im all up in your grill and you dining in disgust
Long wait bad service no tips
Cold food taste like its frozen
Caught up in the moment bar is still open
Watching out for small talk bartenders gold dig
No food for thought they eat your emotions
Dumbing it down theyre sweet when you go sit
On your mind out your mouth can't speak never notice
Cat got your tounge you can leave when its potent
Never been the guy to accept his fate
Always had the drive no second base
When home I arrive so affectionate (nate)
When the message I slide on collection plates
Verdict still out if you take my pitch
If its a hit then you hate my whip
Getting all these kays(Ks) can erase my grip
Im letting go so you can place your shift
Society filled with hannah bakers
13 tapes whats the wrost that can happen?
We shed no light no hannah saver
I guess you can say we never baker acted
We always overlook the suicide
But what if in every mind its do or die?
That would change the perspective of you and I
Then you go turn around telling stupid lies
Dont be concerned over who listens
The outcome shouldn't make you different
Balling hard put you on a new mission
Cuz cinderella getting her shoe fittted
And if the shoe fits then wear it
Your life made of glass who cares then?
Not you not me not even your parents
Never failed never tried to me thats embarrased
Dont live your life by what ifs
The smartest adults were dumb kids
Michale jordan once on the cutlist
Then no matter you equate to something
People forget what they meant to me
In love and war im a refugee
Both affecting me so seperately
With the white lies the truth will set you free
