lyrics

you had an honest clue, would i lie to you?
you keep your 30 silvers, cause bitch i know the truth
who made the brew? they be stirring up these coups-
when steam’s wafting up, ya’ll need to let me through.
hey! maybe i feel good and so i’m boasting,
but they came to watch ya get roasted,
and anything is better when it’s toasted!
crossing your frame like you lost it,
crying over whatever / cost / is;
you already knew.
went and showed your colors and we all seen the hue,
standing all in stitches but nobody tryna sew, and
out here, hand out, reaching for our glue?

nah.
we deal with them root-less
cause they be smiling in ya face, but they just fuckin’ users
smiling in ya face

ok. you don’t listen good, so, let me pull a pen out
call back to my memory like, thank you for the layout
i was squinting at the patterns, now i see them miles out.
been careful with my energy and quick to call a time-out
pulling, i keep pulling,
why my rope still in your hands?
no amends at my expense-
go be and be a better man
cause i got hands you can catch
and nothing you can match-
why not take all of my light
instead of settling for half?

i’m root-less, when they be smilling in my face,
cause they just fuckin’ users,
ruthless, they see all this fuckin’ life and they try to loot us, losers
so we deal with them root-less
cause they be smiling in ya face but they just fuckin’ users
smiling in ya face, smiling in ya face

i said you don’t listen good, so let me pull a pen out
call back to my memory like, thank you for the layout
i was squinting at the patterns, now i see them miles out
I see them miles out, but i’m careful with my energy
why not take all of my light
instead of settling for half?

i’m root-less, when they be smilling in my face,
cause i’m careful with my energy
