Don’t Tell Me

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't tell me, if you tell me you gon' get it, you gon' fail me
'Cause I've heard it all before, I need the real thing
'Cause I'm way way past, all the talking, talking, talking
I hear that way too often

[Chorus]
Don't tell me, if you think you really 'bout it, you gon' show me
Yeah, I tell myself that every morning
'Cause I'm way way past, all the talking, talking, talking
I hear that way too often

[Verse 1]
I think I'm going backwards the way I'm taking my words back (What?)
Ya boy is underground just waiting for when the Earth crack (Haha)
I'll have everybody falling for me when that occurs
It's Armageddon for some, but for me that is my first, track
Yeah yeah, and I got a plan, one hunnid (What?)
If you got a plan, I've done it
Making these tracks a walk in the park
Homie that's why I run it
Got up on the plane with no luggage (What?)
But I got a whole lotta baggage (Ooh)
'Cause conflicts come in abundance
I just never talk about that shit
Any girl that I ever met now is an old flame cos none of that matches
They be getting mad as hell I'd always work now they're just ashes
And I would make a toast to them but I don't remember most of them
I think a lot of 'em got OnlyFans but they'd probably tell you we were only friends
Just know it starts when I say it starts, just know it ends when I say it ends
Might get your chick in a new car, get her body "Audi" and shake the Benz
But when I wake up, I make amends, tell myself that I'm sorry for
Not making that all happen sooner, but that's never gonna happen again

[Chorus]
Don't tell me, if you think you really 'bout it, you gon' show me
Yeah, I tell myself that every morning
'Cause I'm way way past, all the talking talking talking
I hear that way too often

[Verse 2]
I put that on my coffin, I don't proceed with caution
I let myself down too many times but now
I would never double cross 'em, yeah I've seen the mighty fallen
And I'll never fall up in that category this my story, yeah
I put in blood and I put in sweat, put in tears and that's what I get
Everybody think they the gold mine, but trust me, boy, I'm the better bet (Shaah)
I don't think I have no limits, I don't think I have no ceiling
Up in this house of cards that I built myself, I'm the one who's dealing
I see your trickery, you are not tricking me, you are just tricking yourself
I'm doubling up when I hustle and trust me, I'm working like nobody else
I don't need nobody's help, but I'll take it if it comes
The problem is nowadays people are saying they'll help but they're messing the funds
I'mma just stick to my guns, I'mma just do what I do
The way that I work is the evidence, that I got something to prove
Still got a long way to go, still got a long way to move
Don't ever tell me a lie Joey, just tell me the truth

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't tell me, if you tell me you gon' get it, you gon' fail me
'Cause I've heard it all before, I need the real thing
'Cause I'm way way past, all the talking, talking, talking
I hear that way too often

[Chorus]
Don't tell me, if you think you really 'bout it, you gon' show me
Yeah, I tell myself that every morning
'Cause I'm way way past, all the talking, talking, talking
I hear that way too often
