Moment Of Truth歌詞

Moment Of Truth (Explicit) - Gang Starr
Written by：Keith Elam
No matter what we face
We must face the moment of truth baby
They say it's lonely at the top in whatever you do
You always gotta watch motherf**kers around you
Nobody's invincible no plan is foolproof
We all must meet our moment of truth
The same sheisty cats that you hang with
And do your thang with could set you up and wet you up
Ni**a peep the language it's universal
You play with fire it may hurt you
Or burn you lessons are blessings you should learn through
Let's face facts although MC's lace tracks
It doesn't mean behind the scenes there ain't no dirt to trace back
That goes for all of us there ain't nobody to trust
It's like sabotage it's got me ready to bust
But I can't jeopardize what I have done up to this point
So I'ma get more guys to help me run the whole joint
Cultivate multiply motivate or else we'll die
You know I be the master of the who what where and why
See when you're shining some chumps'll wanna dull ya
Always selfish jealous punks will wanna pull ya
Down just like some shellfish in a bucket
Cause they love it to see your a** squirm like a worm
But just as you'll receive what is coming to you
Everybody else is gonna get theirs too
I ain't no saint therefore I cannot dispute
That everyone must meet their moment of truth
Actions have reactions don't be quick to judge
You may not know the hardships people don't speak of
It's best to step back and observe with couth
For we all must meet our moment of truth
Sometimes you gotta dig deep when problems come near
Don't fear things get severe for everybody everywhere
Why do bad things happen to good people
Seems that life is just a constant war between good and evil
The situation that I'm facin' is mad amazin'
To think such problems can arise from minor confrontations
Now I'm contemplating in my bedroom pacin'
Dark clouds over my head my heart's racin'
Suicide nah I'm not a foolish guy
Don't even feel like drinking or even getting high
Cause all that's gonna do really is accelerate
The anxieties that I wish I could alleviate
But wait I've been through a whole lot of other sh*t before
So I oughta be able to withstand some more
But I'm sweating though my eyes are turning red and yo
I'm ready to lose my mind but instead I use my mind
I put down the knife and take the bullets out my 9
My only crime was that I'm too damn kind
And now some scandalous motherf**kers wanna take what's mine
But they can't take the respect that I've earned in my lifetime
And you know
They'll never stop the furious force of my rhymes
So like they say every dog has its day
And like they say god works in a mysterious way
So I pray remembering the days of my youth
As I prepare to meet my moment of truth
Yo I got one lyric pointed at your head for start
Another one is pointed at your weak a** heart
Now if I pull the trigger on these fully loaded lines
You're gonna wish I woulda pulled a black 9
I mack dimes crack the spines of the fake gangsters
Yeah the biting trifling niggas and the studio pranksters
Yo looking at the situation plainly will you remain G
Or will you be looked upon strangely
I reign as the articulator with the greater data
Revolving on the tascam much doper than my last jam
While others struggle to juggle tricky metaphors
I explore more to expose the core
A lot of emcees act stupid to me
And we have yet to see if they can match our longevity
But anyway it's just another day
Another fake jack I slay with my spectac' rap display
Styles smooth but rugged you can't push or shove it
You dig it and you dug it cause like money you love it
The king of monotone with my own throne
Righteously violent prone my words bring winds like cyclones
Storming your hideout blocking out your sunlight
Your image and your business were truly not done right
Throw up your he allah now divine saviours
You got no hand skills there's no security to save ya
No pager no celly no drop top Benz y
I came to bring your phony hip hop to an ending
My art of war will leave you sore from the abuse
Cause you must meet your moment of truth
They say it's lonely at the top in whatever you do
You always gotta watch motherf**kers around you
No one is untouchable no man is bulletproof
We all must meet our moment of truth
