Intro

The body don't lie...

Verse 1

Cousin left red on the pavement where the dice used to roll I pressed the wound with my shirt till the color ran cold Paid in red that evening so the line could still eat Bragged to the corner that the strong one don't speak But the mirror in the bathroom showed the crack in my chest Every anniversary the same ache won't rest The family got thinner, the silence got thick I carried his name like a brick in my grip Now the ones that remain see the steel in my walk But the body knows the nights I sat alone and talked

Pre-chorus

Sweat took the wheel when the mourning got loud Grind in the 954 heat, no days off allowed

Chorus

My body don't lie Every mark on me got a story to keep My body don't lie Blood paid the tab, sweat earned the keep My body don't lie Tears in the dark where the tough ones weep My body don't lie

Verse 2

Now the sweat is the sermon in the callus and ache Double shifts in the rain season for the family's sake Family house still stands but the laughter got ghost I push through the pressure like the rent is the most Corner store still open, same eyes on the lot I nod to the young ones, tell 'em hold what you got The limp when the cold hits the old injury site The body remembers what the mouth won't recite

Chorus

My body don't lie Every mark on me got a story to keep My body don't lie Blood paid the tab, sweat earned the keep My body don't lie Tears in the dark where the tough ones weep My body don't lie

Bridge

Some nights the tears win, no camera, no crew. Just the weight I carried when nobody knew. I held it together so the block wouldn't see. But the body don't lie when it's just me.

Chorus

My body don't lie Blood brags on the scars from the price that was paid Sweat works through the nights that the body made Tears tell the truth when the front door shuts My body don't lie

Outro

Don't lie...
