I Understand

Chorus: So look straight into my eyes Tell me the truth and not lies And now I understand And now I understand Too good to be true, our worlds collide Tell me the truth and not lies And now I understand Verse 1: This world is filled of evil, Im sure you all must know That being fake is easy man the real you's hard to show Although you'd kill to be yourself, you've predicted the results You just want to be accepted, no one likes to be the joke So we lie, and we cheat, becoming something we're not God for bid we are ourselves, we'll be left alone to rot So we act how others act, and we get what others got Until the day we're all the same, and we flying in flocks Now you're talking like your boys, and you're repping the block The block you never even lived on, stereotyped on the spot Your boy passes you the blunt, now you're smoking that pot Cause it relieves you from the stress that every other actors got In too deep you've changed your name, hell you know its insane But you've got the worlds attention, yet deep down your ashamed So you look at your crew and you're all dressed the same You love the sweater grandma knit you but you tell her its lame SHAME! Chorus: "Yo I think I finally get it, ya know, it's like, it's like, when you're young They teach you, they teach you, whats right from wrong Then you get a little bit older and they teach you whats moral and whats not moral Realistically we're just a product of the media, ya know? Thats not our fault You gotta, you gotta go out there and experience life for yourself Yea okay, you know, you'll make mistakes but thats how you learn Ya know? But like I said, you'll make mistakes" Verse 2 That's right I know how it works, these accusations are true Cause I was once that boy, until I learned and I grew You could follow the crowd, you could do what they do But you ain't going nowhere, change your point of view Now I know it ain't easy, but you gotta do you If the door won't open up then you gotta push through See I can rap about bullshit, like everyone else You wanna be hard bitch, try being yourself See now thats whats I did, and Im doing alright I admit my life ain't perfect, but Im in the ring and I fight My shoes are worn out, shirt is ripped, Im uptight Im still walking down my tunnel, but Im finally seeing light I communicate through music, the only way I know how The world tends to seem smaller when you travel though sound I speak though my raps and I write I how I wanna Whats the point of being FiO if Its through a false persona huh? Chorus "Ya know, so like I was saying before, same thing. Product of the media Don't, don't look at what somebody else is wearing or what someone else is doin' And, and what music their listening to. Like, if you wanna listen to FiO, you listen To FiO cause you love FiO, you don't listen to FiO cause somebody else is listening to FiO You don't wear that shirt cause somebody else is fucking doin' it! You Do You!
