Can’t Be Trusted
[Verse 1]
Livin in this brave new age of blatant disinformation
Got limited patience for inflation of the facts
So i hate that even mates have got me taking
Bowls full of grains of salt while they be saying to relax
I am not okay with the fake shit
Show me an adult who can hold a conversation and wax
For a full minute without bullshittin’
Rappers say they wanna freestyle then spit a full written ‘hacks'
All smitten with the image they’re projecting
Like poor little rich kids pretending to be left wing
'Who' move along to the next thing that’s trending
If hell is other people let me sing the next hymn
And join the fuckin church cause i ain’t gonna work
With these other jerks when i | know i can’t trust a word
‘fuck it’ even blood aint cuttin the mustard
Because it aint thicker than custard
[Chorus]
Can't be trusted
[Verse 2]
So what the fuck am I to do about this bullshit?
Surrounded and bound by fools with this school kid
Mentality disconnected from reality
I just blank em when they brag about their salary like
’No' you can’t see me bro
I'm out to reach a pinnacle and people make me cynical so
Be on the level or get thrown outta heaven like the devil
Since my credit was embezzled i can't let it ‘go’
Our band manager back when we were amateur
Stabbed us in the back even badder than my sciatica
Lying and syphoning cash in such a manner that i
Couldn’t get it back and i snapped like ‘backattica attica’
‘so' to the managers the labels and the suits if you’re
Lazy with the truth tryna play me for the loot
I'll say this in the booth and i’d say it to your face
All flustered i’ve sussed it 'your busted’
[Chorus]
Can't be trusted
[Bridge]
Well i’m on my grind all the time
(once your busted you can’t be trusted)
So i don’t need to lie to shine
(once your busted you can’t be trusted)
But if you decide to cross that line
(once your busted you can’t be trusted)
Don’t wonder why yo ass gets left behind
(in the dust kid)
[Chorus]
Can't be trusted
[Outro]
Cause the glitz and the glamour straight
Lost the gleam when it cost the dream
So you’re off the team we’re and we’re dusted
Suck dick fuckwit you can’t be trusted
