Smoke n Mirrors

Found my reflection in yours, told me «come nearer»
My spirit want me to trust you, but I can’t hear it
As I journey through the fog; can see ya clearer
«Faces of Gospel» but it’s all just «Smoke N Mirrors»
From my reflection in yours, told me come nearer
The angels want me to trust you but I can’t hear it
As I journey through the fog; can see ya clearer
«Faces of Gospel» but it’s all just «Smoke N Mirrors»
Opportunistic is how these niggas playin'
They act like they 'bout yo business
But they need to get out yo business, they plottin' busy
It’s crooked as witches, politicians, one’s profits itchin'
… far more wicked and all these christians
See they believe we be satanic
But everyday is hell and nigga tryin' to feed his family
They don’t understand it
But I can stand it you can barely take a menace
Rather by beein' a sinner than a saint cause life ain’t handed
To a ordinarier nigga from Funky Town
With lawyer like Morty you can die for quarters or a pound
Niggas aim to kill, they play for keeps even with cops around
Ten toes down in my ear to the fucking ground
That’s why I just sit and I listen, I don’t talk too much
Explain yo feelings is weakness, so I don’t offer such
Just keep my ears open, precise with ocular
Never loc when a nigga might just cross you up
Found my reflection in yours, told me «come nearer»
My spirit want me to trust you, but I can’t hear it
As I journey through the fog; can see ya clearer
«Faces of Gospel» but it’s all just «Smoke N Mirrors»
From my reflection in yours, told me come nearer
The angels want me to trust you but I can’t hear it
As I journey through the fog; can see ya clearer
«Faces of Gospel» but it’s all just «Smoke N Mirrors»
Thinking 'bout who can a nigga trust in this world of sin
All the deception make a G be like: «fuck the world I’m in»
All good things come to an end, so all these good things couldn’t be
Get on your knees, talk to ourselves and worship Gods we cannot see
You got kids younger than me with AK47's
Why the fuck do we have to go through hell just to see heaven?
They say goin' to church is free, yet we pay the reverend
To read us somethin' that we probably could’ve read better
Feelin' like we being controlled by the government
They wanna decrease chaos so they throw us on religion shit
Killin' us just because we overpopulated
Cameras in the skies and they watching every move we make
And niggas in disguise promoting that they want you to make it
Kids being killed before they even make it to graduation
But what if I’m wrong with everything I’m spittin'
And there is a God and everything is being documented?
Wow
