HBO Special by Lyles Lyrics
HBO Special
Intro:
*Strong Foundation Choir*
I came for deliverance, deliverance I received... You said you'd deliver me, and that's what I believe... (with a sincere heart, I am calling on your name, you never turned away from me Lord, you never turned away from me, you said you'd give me everything....
*talking*
Lyles: "Having the church background that I have, often times I feel like the biggest hypocrite of them all, this type of music I make may not appeal to certain people, but at the end of the day... I'm doing it for me, this is who I am....
Hook:
My nigga Ima hypocrite, (my nigga) and I ain't too proud to tell the world... (my nigga) the world
Verse:
Tell me whats a man without motive? .. A plan without focus?... Everybody want the green but ain't nobody mowing down the weeds, I believe niggas breathe just to seek but won't you tell me how a nigga let a dream stay asleep that's a dead man walkin'... or maybe I'm a man that done bled to often.... and the pledge i'm talkin' don't apply to you niggas, I try to do niggas a favor by speakin' truth but you niggas is basic, man... a young nigga trynna save the land, but bum niggas in the wave trynna make a band, and flash it out, niggas isn't what they rap about, but I ain't trippin' you can catch ya clout, I dapper down and laugh at clowns, cuz no cash amount could ever strip me of my purpose whether bag or pouch, so match my route, and nigga we can change a life, If i finally would take my advice, hypocrite...
Interlude x2:
As much as I would like to change the world I still lust for the money... would like to change the world I still lust for the money, ohhh....
Hook x2:
My nigga Ima hypocrite, (my nigga) and I ain't too proud to tell the world... (my nigga) the world
Verse 2:
Niggas cannot ball on my court, this ain't a diss to anybody, but for anyone involved in the "horse talk from the hole" nigga keep yo whole demeanor disposed, cuz I can easily deduct yo ego, see niggas take it back 2 highschool, back when we was lacing up the Michael's, everyone compete with a nigga they dislike, but my nigga... i matured from this type of thinkin', if a nigga step stupid I dip by the demon, screw the beef nigga... look at me nigga... I don't got a prollem if a nigga speak in a fashion that'll tear a nigga down, all i do is stare em down, screw the nuisance nigga, I just let my music do the sound... but in terms of me being a hypocrite? nigga I know, you ain't gotta point it out, nigga Ima fully grown young man, Ima figure it out, but nigga when it come to music, sit yo goofy self down, I'm not playin' with you
Hook x2:
My nigga Ima hypocrite, (my nigga) and I ain't too proud to tell the world... (my nigga) the world
(Lyles' Dad: "and when it's a pack of people you should get single file, and show some respect, because I have walked a mile, and you want me to move out of your way? You messing with the wrong one today, you sure you wanna ride this train?")
Verse 3:
Lemme tell you bout my life nigga... it ain't nothin but low vibes disguised with the highlights nigga... I don't smoke backwoods... only time I ease the pain is when a nigga go and rap goood, I pull out a pencil and feel it... my nigga screw all yo bull, and screw all yo feelings, just let a nigga breathe, and keep yo negatives inside a zipper, less you finna call up Cole and tell em that "this Lyles nigga is too hot to pass up come and sign the nigga", if not... don't you speak upon my life nigga, I don't wanna hear a word, utter silence nigga... "but Lyles"- ah, utter silence nigga...
*beat switch*
Verse 4:
Saying what's up to the devil... ay, Cole sent me... you throw what you throw but you know you can't get me, had me in a college bathroom with a razor to my throat, but my savior took control, I been through stress, I was finna take my life away, my lady told me there will be a brighter day, I took a trip to go and see my bro, and he could tell that there was something wrong and he broke me, I was crying on his shoulder while I told em, that "I didn't even know my deal, growing up all my vision do is change by the year, now a nigga think I'm finna sign to cole, be real", then he stopped me, like "anything you do you pursue, when growing up, hate to say it, I jealous of you, I used to take my anger out cuz you was good at everything, you got attention, not to mention you was only 7 mane, I regret it, now it's time to be a real big bro, nigga take what you got and fulfill what you know for the whole world... and screw the fame and the lights, nigga I was suicidal and you saved my life, this a cold... world, so follow yo dream cuz Cole World finna sign ya nigga, Ima be right behind ya nigga, and I love you to death, trust God, everything's in perfect timing nigga...
Bridge:
Now God'll be around, shoot whenever you want, God'll be around, shoot whenever you need, pray to the God, you can touch the stars, God I want Dreamville to sign me
Bridge x3:
"Who Dat, Who Dat!"
Verse 5:
Peep the passion of the penmanship.... i'm not in it for the glory but my story should be gettin recognition, im a nigga that can touch an audience, embodiment of my lyrics is how i paint you a Godly image I gotta vision, but niggas ain't rockin with me heavy enough.. or maybe im just too ahead of my myself, i bluff, i bluff, you know this nigga Lyles is the plug to the love, screw approval but i need a little love... too... shoot... nigga I can't choose, like im walking through my life with.. 2 left shoes, you feel that bruise? how bout them blues? i get it i get it, you never knew a talented nigga could feel used, im divided from society, but deep inside of me I wanna sell a couple shows out, and see the whole entire crowd bounce... and scream out Lyles while body temperatures rise because they dig my style...
Hook:
My nigga Ima hypocrite, and I ain't too proud to tell the world... my nigga....
