Tell No Lies Lyrics

[Hook: Shanell]
Said yes but I know
Youre really not that sure
Cause your eyes dont tell no lies
Walkin' that road, left everything you know
The mask you wear dont cover the windows to your soul
Cause your eyes dont tell no lies, your eyes dont tell no lies

[Verse 1: Legacy]
Ever since a child he wanted to be a rapper
Someone said he'd do anything to make it happen
Daddy died gang bangin, momma on drugs
Got a best friend but that nigga locked up
Had a girlfriend that'd be there if he lonely
Till she got drunk and she smashed all the homies
Couldn't stop the pain even after jiggas song
Like alotta bad sex so many did him wrong
He started to rappin but not to give a message
He just knew his fans would love
When nobody else except it
And if he was good he'd get the models on the banners
And maybe make enough to buy the condo in atlanta
That he, always wanted, really wanted
Was the key to the window that will lead him to his fortune
Then at least people would greet him if he lonely
He'd be free if he got it so he started...
[Hook: Shanell]
Walkin' that road, left everything you know
The mask you wear dont cover the windows to your soul
Cause your eyes dont tell no lies, your eyes dont tell no lies

[Verse 2: Legacy]
A year passed, he finally got the deal
He wouldn't stop dreaming till he finally turnt it real
He froze at the question when they asked him how it feel
Saying he didn't do it for the love, he just did it for his self
All the kids saw was a man with a chain
So they idolised him like the man was a game
He thought about buying a phantom, a range
So that he could drive away from the past that he hate
He seemed like he beat every kid in the fame
He became even more distant from sane in the game
He ain't care about the stuff on his brain
If he said what he felt they would spit on his name
Kick him down, help him up just to kick him down again
And then they burried him so long they won't remember his face
But he kept his smile on when anybody greet him
He knows what shoes a kid suppose to be in

[Hook: Shanell]
(We) walkin' that road, left everything you know
The mask you wear dont cover the windows to your soul
Cause your eyes dont tell no lies, your eyes dont tell no lies
