Artist: Salar feat. Gaby
Song: Being Truthful
Album: The Beginning

(Intro)[Salar]
Have you ever wondered the life you live?
If it's you?
You satisfied with that? The place you live in
At this preticular moment? Well I don't

That's right, all these years pretended!
So hard to make it work!
It lasted; but it won't

You know what I'm saying
All these years it doesn't feel right
What I do with my life, how live it; it's not me!
You know what I mean, well I'll explain;


(Verse1)[Salar]
A long time has passed by without noticing
You busy being boss player, forgot to out bring
Your truest kind of art, from your heart & soul
Were is you head at; nigga you know were to roll

From da gutta to the ghetto, we all passed by
Do we know when to keep our heads up & decide?
What should we do tomorrow; worry till we die?
Or be a true soldier, take it, as it comes by

The struggle & fight is part of it all
Being superstar makes the whole thing of the wall
Are you tired as me with drama and the all?
The fakeness you have to come up with, you hear your call

Finally your opportunity has come to you
I sure hope you know what to do with the truth
Decision of all time, hard time to do
Be strong, hold on, to what you wanna knew

Be prepared, nothing else
What your heart knows, and tells
Be careful what you wish for, an advance 
Beware of the devil, and it’s dance

And now look back at the time when you had no choice
Do you really want to keep go on like this, no joys
Only a voice, who tells you what to say & do
To boys & girls in every way, you get your black ass sued

But then again, be brave; make quick decisions
Life’s too short to spend on worry’s vision
So I just stop, sometimes you just scream fuck
I wish I were truthful from day one (yeah!)

(Hook x2)[Gaby]
Understand me, the way I am I never thought that I just hate it,
You were just mean to me

I was stupid, the differences between these persons is;
not one of me is here to be truthful to me


(Verse2)[Salar]
On the other side, it’s pretty good to live differently
Every day your act gets better of being friendly
Get along with suckers; you love to hate
Trying so hard to be one of em, you can’t wait

To get out of this hell hole you been living in 14 years
God please forgive me, I AM thankful, but I’ve been living in fears
Though I’ve been blessed with friends & family, all my dearest
I still don’t belong here, no matter what you tell my ears

Even none of the closest would ever realize
That I’ve been living so miserably here to survive
Try fitting in, or the choice is let go and die
Ain’t nobody knows, how it is to live this strange life


So know you would understand when I make a crazy attack
Splitting or buying the name Ripz you might see on my back
- With fully control, you be seeing me go whack
Cuss the plan is getting me right back on track

With or without the members you see on cd-covers
The struggle goes on, no matter if we are brothers or lovers
Cuss I will move on to the top, with or without the others
Cuss this ain’t livin, see ya motherfuckers

(Hook x2)[Gaby]
Understand me, the way I am I never thought that I just hate it,
You were just mean to me

I was stupid, the differences between these persons is;
not one of me is here to be truthful to me
 

(Outro)[Salar]
At the U.S. -Watch out when I ride to the U.S. -the U.S.
To aftermath ->your record label... I'm coming!!
