[Intro] Yeah The truth cuts through the noise But some people hide behind the echo [Verse 1] Let 'em whisper, let 'em scheme You can't kill a dream with a meme I move unseen, heart clean In the smoke and mirrors, I gleam Let 'em whisper, let 'em scheme You can't kill a dream with a meme I move unseen, heart clean In the smoke and mirrors, I gleam Yo, I've been low-key, eyes open in the backstreets Whispers in the wind, fake love where the mask meets They dab you with deceit, smiles lined with concrete I learned to read the silence where the lies and the call meet Every handshake's a headline, talk's cheap as nickels They got some 'back reporters, twist words in the sickles I'm just painting truth in rhythm, they draw on in pencil Erase the essence quick when attention gets essential So I'm ghosting, floating where the real ones coasting Watching snakes shed skins, emotions eroding They want me in the open, now I'm moving cold 'Cause wisdom shines brighter when it's hid in the fold So I'm posting up, floating where the real ones coasting Watching snakes shed skins, emotions eroding They want me in the open, now I'm moving cold 'Cause wisdom shines brighter when it's hid in the fold [Chorus] They talk, they talk But the truth don't bend While the real ones stay silent Again and again Smoke and mirrors fade in the wind I just let my soul speak And let the lies spin [Verse 2] My aura stay gold, but the city love drama Rumors bloom quick, poison seeds from karma I've seen friends flip for clout, played Judas for a comma Guess they never read the cost of a self-made loss I'm reclined in the shadows, pen sharp as confession Meditating through deception, my pain's my profession Let 'em talk wild, words cheap as counterfeit Truth need no defense, I'm grounded in the sound of it They scroll for validation, I write for elevation My verse levitates over daily low vibrations So when the chatter gets loud, I just breathe and grin 'Cause silence is a weapon when the truth's within [Outro] Let 'em whisper, let 'em scheme You can't kill a dream with a meme I move unseen, heart clean In the smoke and mirrors, I gleam (Instrumental fades out with saxophone solo)
