Smile For The Blade

[Hook] Smile for the blade Everybody's watching Everybody always got something to say They wanna pick you into pieces Lie, make you believe this Limit you from succeeding And take away your faith Smile for the blade Everybody's talking Everybody always got something to say So no matter what it is No matter what you do There will always be a person trying to take it away [Verse 1] I've heard that I don't know the words that come out of my songs Like I was gone when I wrote it And didn't see the pen inside of my palms Are you kidding I understand that you have an opinion But it's ludicrous to think that I'd simulate what I'm living And it's pointless Cause I'm not a person of arms With the whole world screaming and ready to bring it on No point Cause I don't see the contest in art I only embarked in this so I could depart and free parts of mind And what did I find Grown ass men acting like bitches fighting all of the time God damn I'm sick of all this tryin' To turn around and see a mouth full of nails Hunting me, faking a smile And I hate it Cause I'm a fan of truth And you motherfuckers lie to get by in this game full of fools And it's useless So you can chastise and blame me But no matter what, you will never change me [Hook] [Verse 2] And everyone's an expert When it comes down to my life And speak like they knew me before I got in the limelight And what the hell does that really mean I busted ass to get these broken-hearted love poems printed up and seen And I liked it So why you bringing me down You either trying to help me or bury me in the ground As of lately I'm feeling a little drowned in the negativity Surrounding me making a sound And you hate me for it You gotta be out your mind Thinking I would give a damn about the flaws that you find Cause I'm human And never had a problem with that It's a shame that you think I would stop Cause of that, say never This is just a way to behold The best way to gather around the flame - in the cold So you can go ahead and chastise and blame me But no matter what you will never change me [Hook]
