A Bit of Truth

PROMISES MADE ARE PROMISES BROKEN
THOSE ARE THE WORDS THAT ARENT SPOKEN
EVERYONE SAYS THERE NOT USING
INJECTING STEROIDS IS A FORM OF ABUSING

COACINE MARIJUANA CRYSTAL METH AND DOPE
HOW ARE PARENTS SUSPOSED TO COPE
OUR WORLD HAS BECOME A BIG FAT DRUG
NO LONGER ONLY SOLD BY THUGS

YOUR NEIGHBOR TEACHER AND LOCAL PREACHER
ALL HAVE SKELATONS HIDDEN AWAY
ARE YOU REALLY SURPRISED HALF THE NATIONS GAY
WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY

SO MANY LOVE IT AND FEEN FOR MORE
NEXT THING YOU KNOW THEY BOUGHT A WHORE
CHEATING ON THEIR SPOUSE IS HALF THE BATTLE
LITTLE DO THEY KNOW THEIR CHIDREN DID TATTLE

YOU SAY YOUR NOT THE TYPE TO GET CAUGHT IN THE GAME
SO WHY ARE YOU DISGUISING YOUR FACE IN SHAME
I LIVE BY THE CODE BE REAL OR WALK ON
THATS WHY IM STILL HERE AND YOU ARE GONE!!!
