That’s a Lie

[Hook]
Oh what a time to be alive
Man I’m feeling good, on the rise
Even though these times are crazy, can’t deny
They say throw it in the trash, that’s a lie

[Verse 1]
I was just about to up and leave
But giving up is not my cup of tea
Boy I’m so glad I didn’t
Now it’s time to eat, grab my cutlery
I ain’t saying that my life’s complete
Just giving y’all a summery
Metaphorically
I’ve seen a lot of rainy days so I thank God for the summer breeze
I’m cracking through the stone
Trying to deviate from what everyone else does in Rome
Y’all see the glory, y’all don’t know the story
All the seeds that I’ve sown
Wish I had a team but most of this I did up on my own
Going hard for my home
Every day I’m on my knees, every night I seek the throne
Spend more time in the lab, then I do on my phone
Trying to record these poems so you can blast it through the cones
What will be my legacy be once I’m gone

Hook
Oh what a time to be alive
Man I’m feeling good, on the rise
Even though these times are crazy, can’t deny
They say throw it in the trash, that’s a lie
Nah, nah, that’s a lie, that’s a lie
They say throw it in the trash, that’s a lie
That’s a lie, that’s a lie
They say throw it, throw it, throw it, throw it
Throw it in the trash
Nah bruh

[Verse 2]
I was up, then I was down, now back up like a U
No matter what, God consistently backs up what I do
Trust in Him with all my heart no matter what I’ve been through
Anything trying to stop me, block me, I be like move! Get out the way
Million things coming at me, gotta sniff out the fake
Felt some kind of way, had to sit down and pray
Now it paying off, glad I didn’t switch out the play

[Hook]
Oh what a time to be alive
Man I’m feeling good, on the rise
Even though these times are crazy, can’t deny
They say throw it in the trash, that’s a lie
Nah, nah, that’s a lie, that’s a lie
They say throw it in the trash, that’s a lie
That’s a lie, that’s a lie
They say throw it in the trash, that’s a lie

[Verse 3]
I was built for these times, I was built for the struggle
Conditioning in the yard, Trust in God through the troubles
Been ripped off so many times, don’t even stick to the muscles
Bar going over the head, I lean on God, then I hustle
Prepared for the worst, now I’m strongest on my feet
My prayers were answered, honestly when I least
Expected it, indefinite, in reverence
He will restore everything that’s incomplete

[Hook]
Oh what a time to be alive
Man I’m feeling good, on the rise
Even though these times are crazy, can’t deny
They say throw it in the trash, that’s a lie
That’s a Lie Mayne
