K-Rino - Hypocrisy lyrics
[K-Rino - Hypocrisy lyrics]
When the hatred is masked with laughing
Every move that you make they watching it
Saying one thing but doing the opposite
When the words don’t match the actions
When the hatred is masked with laughing
Every move that you make they watching it
Saying one thing but doing the opposite
I’m pissed off and my patience is short
All the heartless people
Circulating ‘round me
Things just ain’t what I thought
This book is played, time to
Start a new page, caught in a maze
Never seen so many hateful ways
In all of my days
Easy to read, I see this everyday
If it’s so wrong and you
Complain about a person’s actions
Why do you stay?
You walk around at holding a cross
Low and distraught
How can you hope that I find you
If I don’t know that you’re lost?
Tired of only being linked to
The conniving and phony
People hanging with ya all your life
Disguised as your homies they mind is sick
Like a person ‘bout to die from pneumonia
Ran together, turning corners
Now they riding up on ya
Plotted on by the ones you
Known since you was born
Best man at your wedding
Now he wishing you harm
Loyalty nowhere in the mind
You don’t notice it though
They act one way when they around
Ya, when they leave ya, they show
They hypocrisy
When the words don’t match the actions
When the hatred is masked with laughing
Every move that you make they watching it
Saying one thing but doing the opposite
When the words don’t match the actions
When the hatred is masked with laughing
Every move that you make they watching it
Saying one thing but doing the opposite
Partners be telling lies
Acting like they known to support
When it get real
They be on side him like a phone up in court
I’m tryna grow to where my dreams
Are too strong to abort in the hood
Blasting out somebody’s dome is a sport
Facing the everyday pressure of
Life’s stressful demands
But the stronger the mind is
The more successful your plans
Even to run a special blessings is
A test for a man
Your money count is only based
On where the decimal lands
Society’s double standards
I ain’t fit in ‘em
I get locked up for whoopin’ my own child
But police get away with killin’ ‘em
Our history’s been ravaged and crushed
You want sympathy for your past but telling
Me forget what happened to us
I guess you thought we was
Gon’ let you walk around
Stalking us all over town
Now the whole city’s scared ‘cause
You the target now
They shoot us down and never say freeze
For killing nine blacks, Dillon got
A Whopper with cheese, please
That’s hypocrisy
When the words don’t match the actions
When the hatred is masked with laughing
Every move that you make they watching it
Saying one thing but doing the opposite
When the words don’t match the actions
When the hatred is masked with laughing
Every move that you make they watching it
Saying one thing but doing the opposite
You want inclusion in a system
Built for keeping you out
That’s like begging a murderer to let
You sleep in his house
Messages programmed in your head
Deeply embedded
So now he follow everything you said
Just ‘cause you said it
Believe in fairytales for years is
What prevented our rise
We sent our babies to the
Public school to memorize lies
You wanna be up in our mix
But, you don’t like us in yours
They won’t hire you on a job but
You can fight in they wars
Shoutout to Harriet
They tryin’ to diminish her purpose
They wanna put her face on money
That’s about to be worthless
You celebrating like them doing that
Is making them realer
Betraying truth for the smiles and
Handshakes of a killer hoping to win
Envisioning how that mighta been
The last trick of a enemy is
To act like a friend we do what they do
It’s a different kind of name for us
So now you seein’ that the rules
Ain’t the same for us and that’s hypocrisy
