August Alsina - Honest (Remix) lyrics

rate me

I just gotta be real, never been on no fake shit

Say you wanting the truth but I hope you can take it

Lot of niggas had doubts, said I wasn’t gonna make it

If I rode around the same shit they probably would’ve been on my dick

And I probably would’ve been on freshman list, BET with mansions

A lot of niggas would’ve been missed, bitch niggas wouldn’t understand this

Real talk nigga, couldn’t plan this, young nigga coming for the top spot

I know some niggas been cold that’ll kill tryna get what I got

Still got some homies on my block, I’m just being honest

Niggas tryna see me shot, I’m just being honest

I know I’ve got some hoes hot, I’m just being honest

But a lame nigga I am not, I’m just being honest

Ain’t another nigga hot, I’m just being honest

All the hoes that I’ve got, I’m just being honest

And bad bitches like thots, I’m just being honest

I never give ‘em my heart, I’m just being honest

I keep my day one niggas with me true

And we ain’t never going back to what we used to do

Oh, I can’t lie to you so I have to tell the truth

I’m just being honest

I keep my day one niggas with me true

And we ain’t never going back to what we used to do

You know I can’t lie to you so I have to tell the truth

I’m just being honest

Since I’m being honest, I’ve been way too modest

But lately I’ve been stressing, I’ve been tryna hide it

Baby all up in my business, can’t do shit in private

And I hear all the shit they say, but still I'm silent

So tell the truth, I know you lame niggas always hatin

Run into the bitch they dating

She chose another nigga, just face it

Really don’t like this fame shit, ain’t what the music came with

And my brother telling me he ain’t shit, won’t be shit and he’s content

That’s fucked up to be so stuck on that street shit when they took Mel

We both said that we’d get right, been three years and I can’t tell

No one ever know cause we lay down or be in jail

Pray he keep his head up ‘cause Lord knows we’ve been through hell

Truthfully I’m counting people off who can’t do shit for me

‘Cause I’ve made mistakes of helping people who just take from me

Seen me tryna get it so they piling on me faithfully

I know if I lost it all tomorrow they won’t stay with me

Most niggas be flexin’, like they keeping it so real

They ain’t getting no bad bitches, these hoes really aint boss chicks

Never fall for that game shit, hoes know that I peep that

So sick of these rap niggas who talk crack but they don’t trap

So done with these gold diggers who fuck just so they get racks

Nobody’s got ambition, wish I had a way to fix that

My nieces' getting older, could light up on my shoulder

No muscle, no hustle, everything’s a struggle, gotta get through

I keep my day one niggas with me true

And we ain’t never going back to what we used to do

Oh, I can’t lie to you so I have to tell the truth

I’m just being honest

I keep my day one niggas with me true

And we ain’t never going back to what we used to do

You know I can’t lie to you so I have to tell the truth

I’m just being honest

Niggas be talking about what they gonna do

But when they press circle on 2K they only time they shoot

And I’m out with the same faces and all my niggas know (squad)

My lil' bro be yellin "Bruh bruh," my lil’ nigga, too

Ain’t got shit to prove but got a lot to lose

‘Cause when it come to life sometime I get confused

Can’t even call Fly damn I miss you dude

it’s hard to see the shame shit, when you got different views

But if that shit ain’t working then make different moves

My bezzle say I’m winning, ain’t got time to lose

And I heard homie be snitching, I can’t fuck with dude

And if you fuck with homie, I can’t fuck with you

‘Cause over here we don’t play both sides

You fuck with us, you fuck with us, period, no talkin, none

And I’mma tell you like a nigga told me

Whatever happens in the streets stay in the streets, yeah

Ain’t another nigga hot, I’m just being honest

All the hoes that I’ve got, I’m just being honest

And bad bitches like thots, I’m just being honest

I never give ‘em my heart, I’m just being honest

I tell the truth
