Live Your Truth H & T ……….Tribe Eternal Chorus: You gotta live ya truth *phoo* You gotta live ya truth And nobody could use that shit against you *ou* [gotta live it x5] You gotta live ya truth *phoo* You gotta live ya truth [gotta live it x7] And nobody could use that shit against you *ou* Verse 1: *uh* Nothin’ in this world is perfect but life’s still worth it *uh* You gotta find purpose and be a better person and try not to hurt em *uh* I know some niggas on the block who were servin’ and now they brain surgeons You gotta put effort into what you do and people could never say shit to you See I stay true all the time (all the time, all the time) I get shit for it…. But there ain’t a soul out there, that gotta guess nothin’ bout me My feelings is on my sleeve, my thoughts is what I speak, and if that’s hard to swallow You could hop up off of this D [harmonize] They say my confidence unique, that is what I teach, let my records speak But I’m tryna find a way to really educate on resonating beats See I live my truth and not my fear, stay away from negativity And if you try to do the same you may finally find peace. Chorus Verse 2: People so comfortable (comfortable, comfortable) People so lost that they don’t understand that so much is still possible (possible, possible) You could attain anything that you want in this world, but once you see obstacles (obstacles, obstacles) You make up excuses and fall off the path, and talk about all of the dreams you then had and how situations made it all go bad. So weak minded…we’re god you know? The black soul, Kings and Queens…need I say mo? The rest of the world exploits everything that comes from us So ask ya self right now, why the hell should you give a fuck..about What they think, what they see, how they feel… They don’t make ya money, they don’t feed ya kids, they don’t pay ya bills So break through these constraint’s and see the real Let’s take over this world do we gotta deal (gotta deal x3) And nobody could use that shit… And nobody could use that shit against you *ou* (x3) And nobody could use that shit. Chorus

BORN IN 1990 Pre-Chorus: I was born in the 90s (x3) [under layer] Born in the 90s (x3) Verse 1: I’m a beast from the East, who finna blow like propane. Been knew the truth I won’t die like Cobain. Free from belief don’t wear no damn chains, nobody could stop me. *uh* I den mastered the flow, you know, I know, you know, that my mindset is an issue for the system. They put the truth right in front of your punkass eyes and your ass will still dismiss em. *uh* You see I live my life to put you up on game. Nothing will change if you just pray for change But say Amen nigga, and play right into they damn hands nigga. Don’t take a stand and try understand where the hell ya come from. Cause knowledge is power and you don’t got none. You rather be a bad bitch than a Black Queen And real nigga instead of a King…nawimean Chorus: I’m a 1990s baby that’s why I rap like this,*uh*, that’s why I rap like this I’m a 1990s baby that’s why I rap like this,*uh*, that’s why I rap like this I’m a 1990s baby that’s why I rap like this,*uh*, that’s why I rap like this I’m a 1990s baby that’s why I rap like this,*uh* I was born in 1990. Verse 2: Just bought a building for some friends of mines in a town that’s being gentrified, So the culture will never leave where it started at. Fuck your starter cap and designer shades Spent ya last dollar.. For a name of man who would get you killed if you stepped foot inside his neighborhood. You play for goods, yeah I’m playing for keeps, my writtens are to preach Why y’all niggas scared to speak, You shook! Never see ya books, don’t own your masters They massa, mastered, their masters and put it up for streams that’s less than pennies to a dollar. Just gain followers, convert em to fans Do some shows put your career in your hands Don’t buy that 8th save it up for a cam And shoot ya own videos and throw it up on the gram Self monetization is what we all need A lyrical gardener I’m just here planting some seeds I hope you grow from the more ya know, I hope you grow from the more ya know I’m a!

Smile Verse 1(Jaya): Smile otherwise I’d break inside/barons of family pride The pressure kills my high You could mix some different flavors, cause I can’t decide Move in the shadows but I swear I could never hide I’m used to being the underdog, amongst a flock of sheeps Steady balancing my rap career, with confident degree See I rap my name gon flip if I get a T free I’ll have to tell her that no course of action could ever master me *Gees* As I skeet, down the street, with my g’s, thinkin’ dreams, talkin beef, smokin’ weed, playin’ beats, writin’ heat. I could hardly fathom, let alone patent this vision Left my insecurities in my hometown and proceeded my mission To used to seeing my mum, break down in the kitchen Cause my father didn’t help, and welfare systems never listened Society’s fucked, hardly said but always written I know you love your girl, your just a pearl that needs fixin’ Smile. Chorus: Just Smile *Smile chant* Smile, Just Smile *Smile chant* Smile All we do is just Smile *Smile chant* Smile, Smile Arian Jones *clear throat* Verse 2 (Arian): Smile through the struggle, I been laughing in pain Tryin’ to see the light but it’s just more of the same See my pigment…leaves the white skinned tense Cops harass cause my windows tint Folks cross the street….like I’m really tryin’ to steal from you? Just like your people stole from me? Let’s have the conversation hardly had I’m super proud that my brother is a dad, but his daughter scared to go to school cause they may shoot it up one day How she post to grow What can I say? More than brotha I don’t know. See the dichotomy of this world is too crazy Need more lobotomies for oppressors and all of the racists Not tryin’ preach… but the fact is this under-privilege black kid Is speaking more truth than your pastor and your priest. F your belief, I don’t care what you say People of color gettin’ killed in every which way With no one to call, never resolved, or a trial All we do is share a post, Be upset, and then we just Smile…. Smile

All on Me Verse 1 (Mike Lux): Lately I had a lot on my mind / There’s a lot of expectations and a lot of em Mine Everybody wanna make a request but when it’s time…they’ll leave you out to dry…Now you the one on the line Hardest part is the trust factor I gotta see you hold it down where’s ya clutch factor? Are you gonna roll or really just a tough actor? When the smoke come…don’t break down in less you bout to put it in ya dutch master Why should I risk it all? I don’t see the point… Especially when they expecting me to be the point.. Man I could lose it all, it’s no ET you can’t phone home when those fingers point Can’t leave you hanging but before I see more I need to weigh the risk compared to reward cause me or You could end up in a place you never been before And everything could blow up on the spot like it’s C4 Chorus: What do I have to lose? Please don’t get this confused…I lose everything Ooohhh…ohhhhh…ooooo Picture me rollin’ , the ride is stolen, nobody owns it so it’s all on me…it’s all on me…. It’s all on me Verse 2 (Arian): Inner thoughts battling what’s wrong and right for me I then made it to the door but never have the right key It’s like two steps forward and ten steps back Look in the mirror everyday like why the hell do I rap? I could just act crazy, wild out on the gram And get enough fans to buy land and bands for my family Talk about pill pop…that could be the Plan B Cause the thing we were growing never ended up manifesting But too many people eyes on me Can’t stop cause I know they wanna wait and see How all this gonna end for me and my team… Will it end up like a dream or will it turn into a nightmare I made choices to stay in the clear…choose a career instead of living in fear of Who’s after me cause I did what to who Got so much to gain and even more to lose you choose. Chorus: What do I have to lose? Please don’t get this confused…I lose everything Ooohhh…ohhhhh…ooooo Picture me rollin’ , the ride is stolen, nobody owns it so it’s all on me…it’s all on me…. It’s all on me Verse 3 (Pharaoh Lum): Yo you ever have your back against the wall? Seen a grown man bawl because the fam my fall? Indictment so frightening..I been there…I have… Everything could disappear into thin air *poof* I took risk I did shit that I shouldn’t have.. Cause being broke ain’t add up..yo I did the math Maybe it was those winters with no heat Or startin’ a new year a school with some old sneaks *that’s fucked up* But picture a lion foldin’ from self doubt.. Simba is grown and he can handle his self now. I came up in the jungle and I survived in it *I did* I was born under pressure yo and I thrived in it *I did* You see this finesse and this finest but not to grind in it Live on a shot clock cause life got a time limit This game insane you could lose ya mind in it But I’m Lebron James as long as my Tribe in it. Chorus: What do I have to lose? Please don’t get this confused…I lose everything Ooohhh…ohhhhh…ooooo Picture me rollin’ , the ride is stolen, nobody owns it so it’s all on me…it’s all on me…. It’s all on me
