Spoke slow, laid it out so clean
(Yeah, clear as day)
Still you flipped it, made it sound untrue
(Ain't what I said)
Took one word, built a whole new scene
(How you get that?)
Now I'm the villain, the script you drew, rewrote my truth to fit your view.
I said what I meant, but that's not what you see
Oh no, you still hear what you wanna believe.
Said it straight, left no room for doubt
(Read it back slow)
Still you spun it, made me the prick
(Oh, here we go)
Took my calm, turned it into a shout
(Guess that's what you heard?)
Now I'm the villain, the script's been flipped, cut out the parts that ain't fit your shit!
I said what I meant, but that's not what you see
Oh no, you still hear what you wanna believe.
Ayo,
I typed it clear, thought the point was tight,
Next thing I know, I'm the clickbait type.
Cut the setup, ran the punchline loose,
Now they got me saying shit I ain't produce.
They got me outta context, outta control,
My argument done, a fake set in stone.
Now I'm the headline, viral as fuck,
Twisted my words just to gas shit up.
Bite my tongue, let the moment pass
Or fire back, set the record straight?
Every word feels like shattered glass
Fight for the meaning or walk away
Ain't no one listenin' either way!
I said what I meant, but that's not what you see
Oh no, you still hear what you wanna believe.
If words divide, then what's the use?
Maybe the lesson is learning to choose.
