Verse 1 Got a grin for the cameras, teeth all white, Trade your truth for a seat in the light, You talk sweet when the jar’s still full, Then fade like a rumor when the taste gets dull. Pre-Chorus You say you’ve changed, but I’ve seen the spin, Same deal, same smile, same easy sin. Chorus Fake your smile, take your slice, Play it sweet, roll the dice, Nothing real, just sugar and vice. Verse 2 Every saint’s got a side they hide, Every king’s got a friend on the take inside, You bless my name while you lift my ring, Sing hallelujah to the next best thing. Pre-Chorus You show up fast when the feast begins, But you’re gone by dawn when the light gets thin. Chorus Fake your smile, take your slice, Play it sweet, roll the dice, Nothing real, just sugar and vice. Bridge I built this from bone and time, You shaped your truth with crafty lines, Keep your cut — I’ll keep my pride, You can buy the song, not the mind inside. Final Chorus Fake your smile, take your slice, Play it sweet, roll the dice, Nothing real, just sugar and vice.
