Somebody Lied To Us

Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah Just breaks my heart nigga You know what you signed up for? You sure? Genocide on your own people my nigga It's a lie You're living a lie [Verse 1: Sevin] Yo I feel like a alien in my own land And though I'm grateful you saved me The homies hating me lately they can't relate They think it's fake the way ya grace has just shaped me My neighborhood's crazy Just like a baby I'm trying to cradle it in my own hands And Lord knows I'm knowing I ain't the Savior But the least I could do is try to lead 'em to him And we are so broken in our behavior But imagine what we could do if my people knew Him When I never had nothing the hood was there But I didn't have nothin' I couldn't care Then I met the risen Christ And was given life So now I'm living life to give 'em life What, I shouldn't share? Betraying the homeboys I wouldn't dare But if I say I love 'em gotta tell 'em the truth The followers follow us And then get swallowed up by the same game That swallowed us it's obvious we failing the youth Huh You see that Ruger in his hand glistenin'? That little shooter thinks you'll love him if he busts for you But you were just using him for your ambitions And he couldn't see nothin' because he trusted you He gave his life for your hype He's doing life for a stripe And you won't even write bro a kite You need the lil homies living wrong to get it on That's why you ain't the one that's trying to fight for what's right For real Hope you listen I ain't dissin' I'm trying to plead with you And every rellie that's in it done got some influence The lil' homies is listened to what you feed If you Said it he did it ain't no coincidence The big homies raised us to die for em On the other hand it was Christ gave His life for us They said that love's earned So we would ride for em But God loves with no return Somebody lied to us [Chorus: Sevin] Brotherly Love Overcomes Our Destruction Yeah That's the acronym for Blood right? Christ's love overcame our destruction I guess He the only one doing Blood right Community Revolution In Progress Huh That's the acronym for Crip right? Christ's unity's the solution to progress I guess He the only one doing Crip right Yuh Somebody lied to us Somebody lied to us Somebody lied to us C'mon Somebody lied to us You see it? Somebody lied to us I swear Somebody lied to us They wouldn't be the ones that would die for us Christ did it on the cross Somebody lied to us [Verse 2: H.U.R.T.] I tried to talk to the streets but they don't learn Til ya can't help em gotta tell em it's your turn Jail time is a candle with a slow burn That's if you blessed With death it's no return Hopped off the porch and came out of broken homes Never seen a happy family porch til we broke in homes This ain't right from the fight many broken bones Heard we was kings so we settle for a broken throne I understand for real I was you Now I'm trying to tell you what you think is real's not true Loved yelling Cuz I was real bout blue Now I'm covered in His blood like a real Damu The streets say you real when they crying at your wake If you walk away to get your life right then you fake So I either gotta die live a life full of hate To be real in your eyes realize that it ain't love We try to make the gang fill a void But we can't still avoid cuz the pain of a boy Still remains in the noise In our brain is the voice of Satan Telling us the pain is poison So when a homie get smoked by the enemies And the thoughts of revenge take ya energy Just know the same devil that manipulated ya'll Got them So, who the real enemy? Gepetto got ya thinkin' that you're real boy Been the okey doke on a Loc that's a kill ploy Crip or Blood we done shed a grip of blood 'Fore you spit a slug at another thug Better chill boy Cuz when you kill him ya kill you Taking lives hardens hearts, that it will do I'm talking to the fake and the real goons Somebody lied to us listen to the real truth [Chorus: Sevin] Brotherly Love Overcomes Our Destruction Yeah That's the acronym for Blood right? Christ's love overcame our destruction I guess he the only one doing Blood right Community Revolution In Progress Huh That's the acronym for Crip right? Christ's unity's the solution to progress I guess He the only one doing Crip right Yeah Somebody lied to us Somebody lied to us Somebody lied to us C'mon Somebody lied to us You see it? Somebody lied to us I swear Somebody lied to us They wouldn't be the ones that would die for us Christ did it on the cross Somebody lied to us [Verse 3: Sevin] Yeah He wanna be famous so he saying he function E'ry nigga in the game amongst him And he caught up in a gang of funkin' Caught a case And the judge made the same assumption So they hit him with a gang injunction Huh The homie said he got you he made blood spill But he only did it for that blood thrill Plus he only did it off that drug pill But he got you feeling like the love's real Now you feeling like you owe him a body So you roll and you body somebody and your bodies they climb But the same one that molded those bodies He is holding your body He gone body your body in time Yeah Now they celebrate in hell Cuz they feeling like they'll never get to Zion Cuz they lost faith Selling they soul for a little bit of fame They gone know it ain't no game When they die and they see God's face Yeah The world's cold and hell is hot We stuck up in this meltin' pot Instead of helpin em we sellin rock Yeah Living selfish while you tell us stop I ain't judgin I'm just statin facts And I pray that we repent Cuz it's too late the day you come get us Look how the slum did us You the only one with us Regenerate our faith and have grace on my young niggas [Chorus: Sevin] Brotherly Love Overcomes Our Destruction Yeah That's the acronym for Blood right? Christ's love overcame our destruction I guess he the only one doing Blood right Community Revolution In Progress Huh That's the acronym for Crip right? Christ's unity's the solution to progress I guess He the only one doing Crip right Yuh Somebody lied to us Somebody lied to us Somebody lied to us C'mon Somebody lied to us You see it?
