Talib Kweli Lie Alot Lyrics

[Talib Speaking:]
I Ain't Out 2 Diss Nobody
But We Gon Keep It Real 4 A Second
Can We Keep It Real 4 A Second
Brooklyn Stand Up
If U Doing Ya Grizzly I Respect That
But A Lot Of Rappers Is Saying Things They Don't Mean
People See Through Dat
Talib Kweli

[Chorus:]
n____s Lie A Lot, n____s Lie A Lot
n____s Lie, n____s Lie, n____s Lie A Lot
I Know U Think U Nice,
U Just Nice On Ya Block
Wit These Crabs In Da Bow
Tryin 2 Rise 2 The Top

[Verse 1:]
This Is Why I'm Hot
This Is Why I'm Hot
I Ain't Scared 2 Die
I Ain't Scared Of Gettin Shot
I Got The Fear Of God
And From All That I Been Through
If U f___ With The Family
Then I Gotta Put It In U
Pause, Now Continue
I Love The Competition
I Ain't Got No Issue With The Battles Or Dissin
But I Keep It Straight Wit U
We Shootin From The Hip
I Can't Stand These Rappers Dat Just Shootin Off They Lip
Every Rapper Is A Clapper
Your Producer Is A Shooter
Engineer Gotta Nine
Label Boss Gotta Ruger
Yeah Right We Ain't Stupid
We Don't Believe These Losers
Gotta Mac In Da Booth
Tell The Truth, It's A Computer
So Let Me Guess U Make It That Impressin
I Seen U On MySpace, U Just Wanna Be Friends
So Let's Not Pretend, I Respected Ya Block
Until I Put It All Together, Now Let's Connect Da Dots

[Chorus]

[Verse 2:]
Ok, U Say U Rap
U Know How I Can Tell U Whack
It's 2007 N U Still Sellin Crack
Back N 1986 When We Was Shootin Over Sneakers
Crack Was King But Now They Slangin N It's Drastically Cheaper
It Ain't A Real Demand There Ain't No Short Supply
Just The Same Old Crackheads Getting Twice As High
These n____s Like 2 Lie On How They Kill On Corners
They Still Corny, They Don't Know What The Real New York Is
Faster Than A Rose N Crime Inner City Drop
It Wasn't Cuz The Mayor Added 40,000 Cops
U On The Corner Like "Wow, My Style Is Pretty Hot"
But My Style Mile Is Equal 2 20 City Blocks
Most Say New York Is Soft
It's Softer With The Beef s___
n____s Can't Separate The Music From The Street s___
Man That's Some Weak s___
Them n____s Never Classic
Remember b______s
Talib Kweli Forever Blacksmithin
