[Hook]
Please don't lie, don't lie, don't lie, don't lie
We've been here once before
You hear us cry, us cry, us cry, us cry
'Cause you know we deserve more
And I won't lie, won't lie, won't lie, won't lie
This fire won't stop burning
Because the temperature is rising (Yeah, yeah)
And now the predators are hiding

[Verse 1]
I had a dream I was six foot under, left to lie in my coffin
Woke up shivering and sweating, that's anxiety knocking
Opened up the door to let them in, I'm pumped up with adrenaline
My heart keeps beating faster but I'm trying to stop it
Put my head down for a second, tried to breathe with my diaphragm
One, two, three breaths but I feel like I'm dying man
Tryna focus on my breathing, lying staring at the ceiling
Feeling hot, I need an ambulance or even a fireman
'Cause I'm fighting with myself, my friends are trying hard to help
They'll say they'll ride for you but watch out if they're riding out for wealth
This maal I'm trying hard to sell like it's got no clientele
And I'm tryna share my pain with you but I'm confiding in myself
I need a vacation, man I hate waiting
I'm on a wave but I feel nothing, man that's plain sailing
This is anxiety and distress, but in the worst of it's form
I'd say I'd never see it coming but I've been here before
[Hook]
Please don't lie, don't lie, don't lie, don't lie
We've been here once before
You hear us cry, us cry, us cry, us cry
'Cause you know we deserve more
And I won't lie, won't lie, won't lie, won't lie
This fire won't stop burning
Because the temperature is rising
And now the predators are hiding

[Verse 2]
I'm getting kinda skinny lately but my belly's getting larger
I just bun a lot of herb, I never kick it with a lager
Taught to never break the rules because I listened to my pastor
But I learned to make mistakes and then just worry 'bout it after
I'm political, but not political peak
Been on the street and now it's only right I spit on this beat
Give them that heat, feel on-former than I've been in a week
I feel the game is just like Nuketown and I've been on a streak
Ooh yes, I've got this down to a tee
[?] and one, it's bound to be me
Go call the underdogs, there's no one here that's loud in the scene
Take off my melodies, my bars and still a thousand degrees
I've got the mask of Zorro but hardly catching Z's at late nights
The mandem catching Z's and let them go so they can take flights
I'm tryna do my best but what's my best now that the stake's high
I sing when under pressure, stalls and stay aboard, I stay high
[Hook]
Please don't lie, don't lie, don't lie, don't lie
We've been here once before
You hear us cry, us cry, us cry, us cry
'Cause you know we deserve more
And I won't lie, won't lie, won't lie, won't lie
This fire won't stop burning
Because the temperature is rising
And now the predators are hiding
