[Skyzoo - Stop Fooling Yourself lyrics]
I solemnly swear what I perform in the booth
All of it is truth
I solemnly swear what I perform in the booth
All of it is truth i solemnly swear, what I
Perform in the booth, all of it is truth
Goes somethin like this
Uh, to whoever it may concern
If you listenin'
I'm lookin' for a place to turn
See it seems like
This is all I want out of life
But, it's the other way around
I wanna do right but, it's moreso a
Question of responsibilities
So the lights stay on
But my conscience is killin' me
Gettin' my Mariano on, pitcher perfect
Still inside
I fear the Lord like "is it worth it?"
Huh, at first I say "no"
But when I open my closet
It makes say so - fuck it
And this is hustler haven, see I'm not alone
Cause he would say that I got faith
Or I got a home
So I ask God if he still love us
I don't always wanna be this
Drug dealin' ma'fucker but
I was playin' on, with opposite plans
And I ain't even have the
Decency to wash my hands
So he spoke through the clouds like
(Boy, stop foolin yourself boy, stop)
I said nevermind the mistakes, and he said
(Boy, stop foolin yourself boy, stop)
I said I'm tryin' to get through them gates
And he said (Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop)
I said I'm tryin' to switch my ways
And he said (Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop)
Searchin' for a way out of the bottom
Without shootin' the 3
Or tryin' to serve product
I'm really just tryin' ta defy the odds
A 9 to 5 is callin' me
But I'm tryin' ta dodge
I really wanna do the school thing
The so called not cool thing
Cause, I'm gettin' tired of movin' things
So maybe Howard or Morehouse or Clark-Atlanta
But all of my friends peddle
Crack and spark hammers
I told em we could still be
Hood and do somethin' more wit our lives
And they all look surprised like
"Wasn't you the same ma'fucker
That showed us how to cook
Up and cut the butter?" i said "yeah
But I guess I sort of had an epiphany"
"I'm tryin' to take this ride
And ya'll don't wanna trip wit me?"
Got into NC Central and I was glad
I ripped my acceptance letter in half
Cause my dudes kept tellin' me
(Boy, stop foolin yourself boy, stop)
Tried to change my grind and they replied
(Boy, stop foolin yourself boy, stop)
I said "you changed wit time
" and they was dyin' like
(Boy, stop foolin yourself boy, stop)
So I changed my mind and stayed outside like
(Boy, stop foolin yourself boy, stop)
They say you are what you are
And you been what you been
Played the corner so long
I blend with the wind mind over matter
Money from the grind is a factor
Tryin' to get it wit mines gon' matter
You are what you are
And you been what you been
Played the corner so long
I blend with the wind mind over matter
Money from the grind is a factor
Tryin' to get it wit mines gon' matter
Cause everything else is really like
(Boy, stop foolin yourself boy, stop)
I'm playin' tug 'o war wit myself like
(Boy, stop foolin yourself boy, stop)
Cause if I try to call
For some help it's like
(Boy, stop foolin yourself boy, stop)
Scared to go to the Lord for help like
(Boy, stop foolin yourself boy, stop)
So I just say fuck it
I solemnly swear what I perform in the booth
All of it is truth
I solemnly swear what I perform in the booth
All of it is truth
I solemnly swear what I perform in the booth
All of it is truth goes somethin' like
