Like chains when you famous, I remember back before the chains, we was nameless Went through stages just to hop on new stages Open up your eyes, man, they only entertain And I cannot sell my soul And I cannot sell my soul And I cannot sell my soul And I cannot sell my soul Jesus saved my soul And I cannot sell my soul I've been at the top, shining like a light bulb And I'm just a product of whatever I was raised in This money sanctified, so I gotta say it again They said I was mad at the Grammys But I'm looking at my Grammy right now Put up on yeah, and I said they don't understand me I just want my dog to pipe down Cause when you really came from the trenches You was raised in the trenches You felt like you trailblazed for the trenches I hope God can forgive me for the days that I was sinning The truth is only what you get away with I said the truth is only what you get away with That's why a lot of these be faking Made it through the trials and tribulations Well here goes, well here goes, well here goes I was one of them weirdos with a pure soul That would go to the flea market to buy fake clothes Every color dubose, every cutlass is cold Every cousin that stole, every summer was cold Out of all of the moles, out of all of the folks After all of the jokes, I'm the one that was chose All of my friends love to gang bang How we in my car and you say we ain't in the same lane When we both had Peli's on and we was scamming for the prime Before chief keepers bang bang Always had mob ties, stood on my six points How could I not rise? Love, truth, peace, freedom, justice, but I'm not five This Southside and we outside This Southside and we outside This Southside and we outside This Southside and we outside This Southside and we outside And for all the guys that went to the White House And set free the old man Every day I put my life on the line Defeat the whole clan Personal worth is not what a person is worth I could give a dollar to every person on earth Man, it's gotta be God's plan Man, I swear these boys keep playing We gon' have to square up then We gon' have to send it up then We gon' have to send it up then We gon' have to send it up then We gon' have to send it up then We gon' have to send it up then My favorite place to send it It ain't how it used to be This a new me, so get used to me It ain't how it used to be This a new me, so get used to me Looking in the mirror is the truth for me Looking at my kids is the proof for me Devil get behind me, I'm loose, I'm free Father, Holy Spirit, let loose on me Father, I'm yours exclusively Devil get behind me, I'm loose, I'm free Father, Holy Spirit, let loose on me Father, I'm yours exclusively Devil get behind me, I'm loose, I'm free Devil get behind me, I'm loose, I'm free The truth is only what you get away with I said the truth is only what you get away with That's why a lot of these be faking Made it through the trials and tribulations The truth is the only thing you get away with The truth is the only thing you get away with The truth is the only thing you get away with I said the truth is the only thing you get away with The truth is the only thing you get away with The truth is the only thing you get away with The truth is the only thing you get away with The truth, the truth, the truth He know every side, every side of you Don't shine through They could never hide from you You can see it bird's eye view The truth is the only thing you get away with They could never hide from you They could never hide, hide from you No, no, no The truth is the only thing you get away with The truth is the only thing you get away with The truth, the truth The truth is the only thing you get away with
