August Alsina Lied To You
[Intro]
(Romano)
[Chorus]
If they tell you I came up from nothin' then know that they tellin' the truth
If they told you I been in the trenches, believe 'em, they tellin' the truth
If they told you I came from the back of the tracks then they tellin' the truth
If they told you that I wouldn't have your back, they lied to you
If they told you that I used to slang things then they tellin' the truth
If they tell you I stay with the bang-gang then they tellin' the truth
If they tellin' you some of the fame changed me, they tellin' the truth
If they tell you that I ain't a hundred, nigga, then they lied to you
[Verse 1]
Still got the mud on my shoes
They just talkin', I done been through it
Where I'm from, these niggas been shootin'
So you know I don't care 'bout no f..ckin' rumors
Can't nobody tell on me, I beat 'em to it
Eat my cabbage up and I'ma never chew it, two times
No excuses, I'ma stand up for mine
[Pre-Chorus]
I work too hard so I'm havin' my way up
Day after day, I be stakcin' my cheddar and paper
I took your bitch and I had her f..ckin' in the Days Inn
If you ever wanna know the code it's, "Fuck you, nigga, pay me"
Hand me my currency currently, you know that money is time (True)
[Chorus]
If they tell you I came up from nothin' then know that they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they told you I been in the trenches, believe 'em, they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they told you I came from the back of the tracks then they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they told you that I wouldn't have your back, they lied to you (Sheesh)
If they told you that I used to slang things then they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they tell you I stay with the bang-gang then they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they tellin' you some of the fame changed me, they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they tell you that I ain't a hundred, nigga, then they lied to you
[Verse 2]
Gettin' money been the mission
Snipin' the bag, I got great precision
Know that all of my niggas got great ambition
Usin' all of our faith and our intuition
Nigga, we beat the odds, we beat the block
Took them bricks and we built us a squad, on God
Takin' no days off
[Pre-Chorus]
I work too hard so I'm havin' my way up
Day after day, I be stakcin' my cheddar and paper
I took your bitch and I had her f..ckin' in the Days Inn
If you ever wanna know the code it's, "Fuck you, nigga, pay me"
Pay me my currency currently, you know that money is time (True)
[Chorus]
If they tell you I came up from nothin' then know that they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they told you I been in the trenches, believe 'em, they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they told you I came from the back of the tracks then they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they told you that I wouldn't have your back, they lied to you (Sheesh)
If they told you that I used to slang things then they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they tell you I stay with the bang-gang then they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they tellin' you some of the fame changed me, they tellin' the truth (Truth)
If they tell you that I ain't a hundred, nigga, then they lied to you
