Truth Hurts

Yo, yo Prince?
Yo, what up 6
Where that beat it, man?
It's right here (come on)
Yeah, yeah, that's the one bro, that's the one
Check this? (What's that?)
I'm gon' spit this one at my people, you know? (Oh yeah)
And I'm probably gonna strike a sensitive nerve in y'all
'Cause I only speak the truth (yeah, I know)
And as you all know, the truth hurts

I feel the need to reveal what our folks would not
Reach our youth on the streets with this cultural shock
Too many times I've appealed but you told me to stop
So now I turn it up a notch in your audio box, watch?
I've been advised as a child of course
Not to question my folks or to voice my thoughts
Either follow the rules keep your sentences short
Or you'll be first on the floor taken down with the force
Now, any done wondered that our children have grown
More fond of the streets disappeared from home
Like we raising soldiers and treating them cold
Seeing a brother show affection is a definite no, you feel me?
Don't get me wrong 'cause I'm proud of my roots
It don't mean it's all good though it's killing our youth, look?
Don't mean to judge you I'm telling the truth
Yo, I ain't perfect people neither are you, you

I said it all in a few words
And I speak through the truth, never rumours
You heard every verse full of true verbs
I ain't here to cause trouble for the humour
The truth hurts

I said it all in a few words
And I speak through the truth, never rumours

I ain't here to cause trouble for the humour
The truth hurts

Don't gamble your dough, bigger damage you bro
Become a habit to the soul, send your family broke
Trust me I've been there seen them gradually choke
I'm 1 of 7 in a family that managed to cope, you know?
Don't be deceived by the Jesus freaks
They do the same always claiming they need your fee's, it's greed
I don't believe what these creatures speak
They're like thieves, they don't give a damn who feed your seeds, you see?
Most you peeps keep twisting the beats
'Cause they're mixing tradition with religious beliefs, see?
Money and faith make destructible fate
Open your eyes, realize it's corrupting our ways, okay?
I know you won't ever like my views
I'm responsible for the P.O.V's of the youth? Look
Don't mean to judge you on speaking the truth
Yo, I ain't perfect people neither are you, you

I said it all in a few words
And I speak through the truth, never rumours
You heard every verse full of true verbs
I ain't here to cause trouble for the humour
The truth hurts

Yeah
I'm entitled to my own opinion, right?

I ain't ashamed of the way that they raised me up
I represented to the end when my days are up
I don't fail to see when our ways are corrupt
So I'ma spray it to 'em, straighten them up, come on
Most your folks need to know that there's nothing in life
Worse than a child cursed in the public eye
Communication, don't be throwing a fit
A calm word's more effective than a blow with the stick
I think it's a shame how a church divides
'Cause the committee and members cannot compromise
Realize the demise of our youth arise
From the actions in life we expose to our child
Analyze the pros and the cons of our ways
The superstitions, traditions that's choking our faith
But you're too stubborn to admit your wrongs to the youth
Yo, I ain't perfect people neither are you, you

I said it all in a few words
And I speak through the truth, never rumours
You heard every verse full of true verbs
I ain't here to cause trouble for the humour

We did it again, baby
That's why we're letting you know
6 Pound, yes
We're speaking the truth
All you other cats talking all that bull ish and crap
You need to relax
Man, it's just music
