Tonéx
I Know The Truth (Lies)
[Chorus:]
You've been telling lies, but I know the truth
Satan, you been telling lies, but I know the truth
The devil's been telling lies, but I know the truth
I have been delivered
Satan's under my feet
I've been forgiven
So you ain't got nothing on me;
The devil's been telling his lies
But I know the truth, I know the truth
[Rap 1: Tonéx]
They call me Prince, but my name is Tonéx
And I'm with queen Shirley, the one and only
Let me break it down to ya
She got something like forty-six Grammys
From the Cali to Miami, got the game on lock
One, two step with the clown walk mix
With the church flow stomp
Three times, it's a wrap, yo
[Chorus]
[Vamp 1:]
I know the truth
[Vamp 2:]
I know it, I know it
I know it, I know it
[Rap 2: Tonéx]
Throwback with The Caravan sample
I'm a make you an example
Like I did with Hezekiah, yep
When you've ever heard of rap mixed with traditional
So unconventional, you know it's on fire
Shirley Caesar is a sure crowd pleaser
But please don't get it twisted
'Cause she's holiness or hell
Never thought she'd link with the Jesus freak
People talkin' trash
But I'm on my way to glory, oh well
[Rap 3: Shirley]
Talk about me just as much as you please
But the more that you talk, I'm gonna sell CDs
Everybody's tripping on this track
'Cause it's so groundbreaking
That we're taking church back to the streets
Stomp on the devil
Take ya to another level
Betta duck, start flyin'
Then they pass church fans
You telling lies, but I know the truth
We're off to the Grammys
Clap with me if you can
[Vamp 2]
I have been delivered
Satan's under my feet
I've been forgiven
So you ain't got nothing on me
You ain't got nothing on me
You ain't got nothing on me
You ain't got nothing on me
You ain't got nothing on me
The devil's been telling his lies
But I know the truth, I know the truth
