Intro
Yeah… porch cam on… Group chat already lit…
Chorus
Porch cam on, the block on trial, trial Ring ding ding, who gon’ lie?, who gon’ lie? Group chat poppin’ like a courtroom brawl But the camera caught us all… caught us all 11:58, lights still on… but the truth get tall
Verse 1
Jitt hit the chat “my package gone, who took it?” Porch cam got the angle but the face in the hoodie lookin’ crooked They pointin’ at the new jitt from the 954 side But I know it was the one who been lurkin’ since the last time he slide Finna spin the block but the footage already spin Half truth in the group, everybody pointin’ fingers again The ends hot but the cam don’t care who right or wrong It just record the drama, play it back all night long
Chorus
Porch cam on, the block on trial, trial Ring ding ding, who gon’ lie?, who gon’ lie? Group chat poppin’ like a courtroom brawl But the camera caught us all… caught us all 11:58, lights still on… but the truth get tall
Verse 2
Then the blue lights hit, they hit the wrong porch again Grandma on the stoop “they always spin for the ends” Chat sayin’ “they lookin’ for the one who took the pack” But everybody know it’s the same old trap, no cap They kickin’ doors for a package that probably already gone While the real ones who did it still out here movin’ strong Grandma text “y’all better stay inside” But the cam already outside, watchin’ us all die slow
Chorus
Porch cam on, the block on trial, trial Ring ding ding, who gon’ lie?, who gon’ lie? Group chat poppin’ like a courtroom brawl But the camera caught us all… caught us all 11:58, lights still on… but the truth get tall
Verse 3
Grandma got the best ring, she see it all from the window Textin’ in the chat “y’all better not fall for the info” She seen the truth before the clip even load But she keep it quiet ‘cause the block already cold The old head know the cam make us all snitch Even when we don’t mean to, it expose the glitch She say “back in my day we handled it face to face” Now we let a little box decide who catch the case
Chorus
Porch cam on, the block on trial, trial Ring ding ding, who gon’ lie?, who gon’ lie? Group chat poppin’ like a courtroom brawl But the camera caught us all… caught us all 11:58, lights still on… but the truth get tall
Verse 4
Then the twist hit hard, my own cam caught me too Doin’ the same dirt I was pointin’ at you I was the one lurkin’, I was the one creep Now the footage got me and I can’t delete I deleted the others but the guilt stay on replay Now I know the camera don’t lie, it just show what we on today The block a courtroom but the judge is us If we don’t fix the mirror the footage gon’ bust
Chorus
Porch cam on, the block on trial… Ring ding ding, who gon’ lie?… Group chat poppin’ like a courtroom brawl But the camera caught us all… caught us all 11:58… lights still on… But maybe we turn it off tonight.
Outro
Porch cam still on… But maybe we turn it off tonight.
