Lies Lyrics

Whatchu wanna be when you grow up?
What else you gonna be when all you see is thugs?
Went from selling candy to selling drugs
You ain't too young but there's so much
Pops on the? made you wake up
Teacher says it's been a while since you showed up
Don't even know why you're acting so tough
And it's cause they never show you real love

You keep on hearing lies
The streets are telling you a lie
Why should a nother baby have to cry?
Cause your daddy's locked down
And mom ain't around
Don't listen to theses lies
There's a better way to survive
Although it may take some time
Cause looks is decieving
Look what we're teaching, all they are is lies
Oh lies, Ooh lies

I think you should be careful what you wish for
All these kids are dying in this hood war
You wanna be rich, tired of being poor
Not knowing you're worth so much more
And cause you got a six selling hot chick?
Hood hustling is the only way to get it
It's too the point that's all you believe in
And another one lost to the system

You keep on hearing lies
The streets are telling you a lie Why should a nother baby have to cry?
Cause your daddy's locked down
And mom ain't around
Don't listen to theses lies
There's a better way to survive
Although it may take some time
Cause looks is decieving
Look what we're teaching, all they are is lies

There is so much more to life
You don't want to be like them
You got to learn how to just walk by them
Because none of them are real friend
I know it's going to be hard
But it's time for a new start
You're going to be alright
Don't listen to their lies
Ooh lies, Ooh lies, lies, lies, lies
That's all they are just lies
I'm trying to tell you the truth
Don't listen to them

You keep on hearing lies
The streets are telling you a lie
Why should a nother baby have to cry?
Cause your daddy's locked down
And mom ain't around
Don't listen to theses lies
There's a better way to survive
Although it may take some time
Cause looks is decieving
Look what we're teaching, all they are is lies

Don't listen to them anymore
All they are is lies
