Lyrics True Feelings - TJ Porter

True Feelings

They say I’m only gonna scratch the surface
This song I know that I gotta do it, I’ma show my true feelings
I’ma give 'em what they wanna hear, what y’all wanna hear now?
I’ma put my business in the air, I don’t really care now
I really don’t care now, let’s talk about all this shit
All of this music, all of this G shit
My whole life and my so-called bitch
This isn’t fair, I been goin' under pressure when I’m anywhere
I used to be scared, But now it’s time to just open up and let you hear
I was playin' ball 'fore I started with the music
Then I had jumped in the trap
Basketball wasn’t bringin' money in
So I had to go and sell out them packs, no cap
I’m only talkin' 'bout weed, no, I ain’t talkin' 'bout crack
I was just runnin' 'round the streets with my niggas
I don’t care if you my brother, we don’t tolerate rats
One of my dogs told, if you in it
And you in it and you snitchin'
I ain’t with it (Nah), on my life, I ain’t snitchin' (Nah)
Chic' got hit, I was fifteen
Sometimes I feel like it was 'cause of me
Was supposed to meet him at 3:15
Come get me 'fore my birthday, he was tellin' me
Twenty minutes later, on the big screen, why you had to go?
Why you cross that street goin' to the opp side just to bag a ho?
Shit fucked up, I was traumatized when I had to go bag my bro
Now you see how I feel when it come to the situation with Chico
When I think about it, I don’t go get it, I’m there for music
They say I’m only gonna scratch the surface
This song I know that I gotta do it, I’ma show my true feelings
I’ma give 'em what they wanna hear, what y’all wanna hear now?
I’ma put my business in the air, I don’t really care now
I really don’t care now, let’s talk about all this shit
All of this music, all of this G shit
My whole life and my so-called bitch
This isn’t fair, I been goin' under pressure when I’m anywhere
I used to be scared, But now it’s time to just open up and let you hear
I was in a shelter with my mom, bro and sister
When my mom met a mister, I would cry when he would kiss her
I ain’t know what they love was like, I know I miss my pops
Every time I argue with mom I would tell him to come get me
But the nigga would always flop
I had to get dropped in the precinct every weekend
Just for a parent swap
'Cause my mom and dad couldn’t be 'round each other
If there wasn’t no cops
Man, I was in a precinct, nigga, that’s no cap
Let’s talk about my bitch, I always thought she kept it real
She was here before the music, the money, the fame
Before I had got me a deal
We started arguin', she said she’d leave my sons
You see how emotions is spilled?
Ever since then I just been wonderin'
Was this even real?
Now I let it all out, nigga, you in or you out?
This what you wanted to hear
Now you see how I feel, nigga, you see how I feel
This shit ain’t lettin' me heal
When I think about it, I don’t go get it, I’m there for music
They say I’m only gonna scratch the surface
This song I know that I gotta do it, I’ma show my true feelings
I’ma give 'em what they wanna hear, what y’all wanna hear now?
I’ma put my business in the air, I don’t really care now
I really don’t care now, let’s talk about all this shit
All of this music, all of this G shit
My whole life and my so-called bitch
This isn’t fair, I been goin' under pressure when I’m anywhere
I used to be scared, But now it’s time to just open up and let you hear
