[Intro]
Yeah…
Late nights, thinkin’ about the lies people told
Funny how truth shows when the story get cold
[Chorus]
Sometimes I see through the fake-ass smiles
Sometimes the truth only take a while
Sometimes the loudest voice in the room
Just another fake-ass power-trip fool
Sometimes the mask fall right off the face
Sometimes the lies can’t hide their trace
Sometimes the ones who swear they know
End up showin’ they just a fake hoe
[Verse 1]
Late night thoughts, yeah my mind run deep
See the same fake patterns people try to keep
Talk big words like they righteous and clean
But the truth behind the curtain look mean
Say they stand strong, say they stand tall
But they disappear when the real truth call
All that pride they carry so slow
Start fallin’ apart when the pressure show
I seen the act, I seen the role
Seen how power change a soul
One day loud, next day low
Now everybody see the cowardly hoe
[Pre-Chorus]
Truth don’t fade when the lights go dim
And silence louder than any hymn
You tried to hide but the cracks still show
And that’s when everybody know
[Chorus]
Sometimes I see through the fake-ass smiles
Sometimes the truth only take a while
Sometimes the loudest voice in the room
Just another fake-ass power-trip fool
Sometimes the mask fall right off the face
Sometimes the lies can’t hide their trace
Sometimes the ones who swear they know
End up showin’ they just a fake hoe
[Verse 2]
I watch the story slowly unfold
Every lie start turnin’ old
You wanted praise, you wanted glow
But lost yourself in the ego show
You talk about justice, talk about right
But turn around and avoid the fight
All that pride that you display
Slowly start to decay
Now the mirror show what you became
Another loud voice chasing fame
Truth still stand while the lies get low
And everybody see the hypocrite hoe
[Outro]
Yeah…
Sometimes the truth take time to show
But when it do…
Everybody know
