TBH

[Intro]
To be honest

[Verse 1]
I feel the UK scene is going backwards, not just rap, but fans behind the cameras
Directing support to any actor there for cash who's goal is winning BAFTAs
Once collected, purpose loses hunger, won't evolve so lower goes the standard
Many try, including I, to set it up, "He's too different," they say gathered
I'm hearing our country got bad vibes
Smothered in pride, I think we should get baptised
Same ones that saying they post it on TikTok
Then laugh at somebody that's trying to landmine
I meant blow up, their energy slow up
Until you get views, everybody wanna show up
You know what? The stereotypes they throw us
The most they catch my age, they all wanna be bad nowadays
It's really breaking my heart, innocent, forced out, don't know where to stand nowadays
Lord, peer pressure, foothold, where do I stand nowadays?
They're listening to bad examples, that they follow, they don't follow your plan nowadays

[Hook]
So I ain't trying to join the parade
To be honest, honest, I ain't trying to join the parade
Join the pa-huh, huh
To be honest, honest, I ain't trying to join the parade
Join the pa-huh, huh
To be honest, honest, I ain't trying to join the parade
Join the pa-huh, huh
To be honest, honest, I ain't trying to

[Verse 2]
Slavery ended 160 years ago, now 2025, it's sad we still in bondage
If I'm being honest, was the colonisers, now it's our nature, doing all these honours
We ain't seeing fairly, Momma said it's scary, 2 hours on Insta, for the Bible, barely
Linking to depression, hurt a cycle weary, stuck in chasing so you earn but still ain't barely
In this day and age, to fly, they'd wanna tear me
Keep me on the media but I ain't Mary
LIke the Virgin, I'm seeing it certain
Invisible chains, we all change into burdens
Ain't giving it up to the Father or serving
But serving the ways of the world, ain't deserving
A remedy made for the ones who are hurting
Submit to the Lord and show out from the curtains
Nah

[Hook]
I ain't trying to join the parade
Join the pa-huh, huh
To be honest, honest, I ain't trying to join the parade
Join the pa-huh, huh
To be honest, honest, I ain't trying to join the parade
Join the pa-huh, huh
To be honest, honest, I ain't trying to
To be honest, honest, I ain't trying to join the parade
Join the pa-huh, huh
To be honest, honest, I ain't trying to join the parade
Join the pa-huh, huhTo be honest, honest, I ain't trying to join the parade
Join the pa-huh, huh
To be honest, honest
TBH

[Outro]
Maybe more difference, word of purpose in the scene
Giving souls the truth and not fake lifestyles to believe
The state of me making me feel I'm suffocated
Understatement, nothing's changing, 'bout time I start to-
