HARD TRUTHS Lyrics
[Verse 1: UMI]
Hundred different things that I could say to you
Do you know you light the gas and turn the flame on you?
I see you make excuses from a point of view, it's useless
I'm bored with what you say, throw that shit away
I am on a different time, I know how to use my mind
Kick back and float through life, I don't need to try
You just seem to waste your time, funny you're now wastin' mine
The hard truth is
[Chorus: UMI]
You could have a nice house, but going home lonely
Closet full of nice clothes, who's holding you closely?
You could cash out, that's nice, partyin' all night
But you're empty inside, are you alive?
[Post-Chours: UMI]
Ahh (Ah)
The hard truth is
[Verse 2: 6LACK]
The inside, that's what matters the most
Stormy days, I ride the wave, yeah, that's what keep me afloat
Could pull up in somethin' crazy, talkin' crazy talk, but that ain't in the cards
You can't mend the heart with the materials you bought, huh
Million different things that I could say to you
Keep it G, but I ain't put no shame on you
Bored without the games they finna play with you
But it drives you crazy, I can feel, somebody grabbed the wheel
Swervin', need to switch my place, growin' at a different rate
I could see it in your face, beggin' me to stay
Choices, I can walk that way, but I need to walk away
The hard truth is
[Chorus: UMI, 6LACK, UMI & 6LACK]
You could have a nice house, but going home lonely (Going home lonely)
Closet full of nice clothes, who's holding you closely? (Close)
You could cash out, that's nice (Nice), partyin' all night
But you're empty inside, are you alive? (Alive)
You could have a nice house, but going home lonely
Closet full of nice clothes, who's holding you closely?
You could cash out, that's nice, partyin' all night
But you're empty inside, are you alive?
[Outro: UMI]
You could have a nice house, but going home lonely
Closet full of nice clothes, who's holding you closely?
You could cash out, that's nice (Yeah), partyin' all night (Yeah)
But you're empty inside, are you alive?
